Conference feedback

I like this kind of conferences. Quite good!

Thank you for this great event! I truly appreciate the effort it takes to organize the Conference every year. I could only attend a few sessions for a while, so I can't wait to watch the recordings -- most likely over the weekend. The speakers were highly knowledgeable and I'm sure their tips and tricks will be very useful for many of us in the long run. Thanks again!

I wasn't able to see all the conferences I wanted due to the different time zones but I enjoyed the few I attended! Thank you!


Thank you so much for an interesting and state-of-the-art event. I am in El Salvador, and from this remote area I was able to learn useful tips and ideas for my business. Moderator was very helpful and never a nuisance... I appreciate your kind efforts. Happy translation!

What a great opportunity to hear from the work of other translators and to learn from them.
Every contribution was much appreciated. Tips and tools for translation are very useful.
I enjoyed very much the discussion panels and the experience each translator shared about the points that were put forward by viewers.
Thank you so much for taking the time and effort this event.

Time From To Content
11:17 Apr 8, 2014 Epameinondas Soufleros: 951887 All No, this doesn't have to do with propagation.
11:17 Apr 8, 2014 Cathy_Atril: 1469690 All If so, you can include it in the "Order Comment" section, and I will include it in your invoice.
11:17 Apr 8, 2014 Daniel Benito: 1130548 All just because they do it one way doesn't mean it's the right way
11:17 Apr 8, 2014 Ali Bayraktar: 710657 All +1 activation, does it need payment?
11:17 Apr 8, 2014 Ali Bayraktar: 710657 All Why system offers it as a separate choice?
11:17 Apr 8, 2014 Daniel Benito: 1130548 All and we'll also consult other existing users to see what they think
11:17 Apr 8, 2014 Cathy_Atril: 1469690 All No, it is included in the Virtual event offer.
11:17 Apr 8, 2014 Blandine-ATRIL: 1459982 All the +1 will apply if you are selecting the product as freelance
11:18 Apr 8, 2014 Cathy_Atril: 1469690 All It is included as a separate choice for normal orders.
11:18 Apr 8, 2014 Epameinondas Soufleros: 951887 All If a pretrasnlation has given me "ABC" as a fuzzy match for a segment and when I navigate to it the TM or DeepMiner knows that it should be "ABCD", then "ABC" in the target segemnt is not...
11:18 Apr 8, 2014 Epameinondas Soufleros: 951887 All ...replaced with "ABCD"
11:18 Apr 8, 2014 hnoronha: 556405 All I am selecting it as freelance
11:18 Apr 8, 2014 Epameinondas Soufleros: 951887 All Instead, I have to look at the Portions-Segments and insert the best match.
11:18 Apr 8, 2014 Daniel Benito: 1130548 All Epa: you mean you'd expect AutoTranslate to replace it automatically?
11:18 Apr 8, 2014 hnoronha: 556405 All But maybe I have been registered as Enterprise in the past because I own 5 Dvx Workgroup versions
11:19 Apr 8, 2014 Cathy_Atril: 1469690 All But you don't need to mark it for this order, because it is included in the Virtual Events offer, so we will send you a +1 activation code even if you don't mark the option.
11:19 Apr 8, 2014 Pavel Tsvetkov: 634408 All Yes, this is yet another version of the same problem :)
11:19 Apr 8, 2014 Epameinondas Soufleros: 951887 All Yes, yes.
11:19 Apr 8, 2014 Epameinondas Soufleros: 951887 All Something like "re-scan" upon entering the segment.
11:19 Apr 8, 2014 Daniel Benito: 1130548 All makes sense
11:19 Apr 8, 2014 Epameinondas Soufleros: 951887 All *automatic re-scan
11:20 Apr 8, 2014 Daniel Benito: 1130548 All then again, if you're working on your own (not sharing a server TM with other people), this normally won't happen is you have AutoPropagate turned on
11:20 Apr 8, 2014 Daniel Benito: 1130548 All but I see your point
11:20 Apr 8, 2014 Ali Bayraktar: 710657 All I bought
11:21 Apr 8, 2014 Ali Bayraktar: 710657 All Thanks for discount and your friendly approach
