Join CSA Research senior analyst Dr. Arle Lommel for a discussion of the “Reverse Swiss Cheese Model” – a way of thinking about the barriers and opportunities you create for international visitors to your website and business – and how it affects your business success. This approach lies behind the Global Customer Experience Calculator, a free tool that calculates the likelihood that individual customers in our “Can’t Read, Won’t Buy - B2C” panels will make it through the various stages ...

Mismatches in expectation between buyers and sellers of language services are a frequent source of quality problems and dissatisfaction. Many industries address such challenges through the establishment of “grades,” standardized descriptions of the qualities and features a good or service must exhibit to meet requirements for particular use cases. For example, tools may come in “consumer” and “professional” grades that have very different feature sets, and agricultural products may be assi...

Enterprises aspire to a global customer experience, but often the individuals who are responsible for preparing the content to support this goal have little ability to assess its effectiveness when it is deployed. In many cases, localization groups think they are doing well because they manage the process and get good results from their vendors, yet their customers discover a far different reality, with mixed language (or unlocalized) content and graphics, links that go nowhere, and a generally ...

The rise of ever-improving neural machine translation and the improvement of other translation technologies is dramatically changing the working environment of professional linguists. Increasingly, translators and interpreters are required to use machine translation and other technologies, but many linguists find themselves pushed to the end of the line in terms of their ability to effect meaningful change or control. By contrast, an emerging approach known as “Augmented Translation” is puttin...

(UTC-05:00) Eastern Time (US & Canada)
Uncertainty tied to the pandemic produced a roller-coaster of economic changes that undermined even the most reliable statistical forecasting models. For the first time since 2005, CSA Research did not release our 2020 Global Market Sizing numbers when we released the ranking of the largest LSPs in the world. We knew that it would be irresponsible to forecast market trends in the waves of severe uncertainty. Prior to sizing the 2020 market and forecast, we understood that we needed reliable da...
