Answers for IT Directors<\/h2>\n

How much extra work will a multilingual website put on my team?<\/h3>\n

If you\u2019re taking on website translation in-house, managing the specialized technology and processes that support a multilingual website are technically and operationally complex, and time-intensive. The additional tasks you\u2019ll take will either get lost in your backlog, or pull resources away from overseeing your primary-market website.<\/p>\n

For instance: You\u2019ll have to set up tools and workflows that detect when new content is published on your primary site, process it for translation, and integrate that translated content back into your system. These processes happen not just once, but on an ongoing basis.<\/p>\n

These specialized tasks go beyond your IT team\u2019s core competencies. They\u2019ll lead to inefficiencies caused by an overworked, overwhelmed team.<\/p>\n

With other approaches, IT teams must set up new, complicated tools and workflows. This often leads to delays and inefficiencies.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Also, the effort you\u2019ll invest with an in-house approach will exponentially increase based on the complexity of your website. As an example, the more dynamically-loaded or third-party content your site uses, the more complicated and costly your translation processes will wind up being.<\/p>\n
