Cybozu, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as Cybozu, abbreviated) is a company that develops and sells groupware such as Cybozu Office and Garoon, as well as business-use applications such as kintone.

We received an inquiry from Mr. Nakata of the 2017 Global Development Department Technical Communication Group regarding the translation of "Garoon user help and administrator guides" on our website to be outsourced.

"Evaluated the translation trial quality
(Mr. Nakata)"

A trial of Garoon's English translation for multiple companies was conducted in order to select a translation service provider.

We have received an order from Human Science Co., Ltd. for evaluation of translation quality.

Introduction Process

First, we started with the English translation of Garoon's administrator guide and user help, and we have also received requests for translation of a more voluminous installation guide.

And now, we are also continuing to support the management of other product groups, such as kintone and cybozu.com.

Note: Our manuals are created in HTML format and translated using Trados (translation support tool).

Evaluation of Human Science Co., Ltd.

"We also have high expectations for the use of machine translation."

Always polite and sincere, we are grateful for your support in smoothly progressing our translation projects.

We seek translators who have a thorough understanding of the product and can provide reliable translations.

Only a part of Garoon documents are being translated by Human Science. These include high-priority user help and administrator guides. In fact, there are still documents that need to be translated. We are considering using machine translation for this, and we are also receiving support for introducing machine translation.

We are relying on proposals that utilize translation-related systems and engineering knowledge when implementing machine translation.
