I was recently invited to join a collaborative project of freelancers using MemoQ to get a big job done. I usually stay away from such things, but I have found my standalone work with MQ so interesting, and I receive frequent questions about the product from my agency clients, so I thought I'd take a look at what the server version might have to offer them.

I was recently invited to join a collaborative project of freelancers using MemoQ to get a big job done. I usually stay away from such things, but I have found my standalone work with MQ so interesting, and I receive frequent questions about the product from my agency clients, so I thought I'd take a look at what the server version might have to offer them. A lot it turns out. I was overwhelmingly pleased to see what an affordable, efficient, translator-friendly environment for collaboration we have here. Comments from others working with the server have merely confirmed our good experience. Here is a further commentary on this erste Begegnung:

Nice one Oct 21, 2009

Thanks for posting this Kevin, after reading your blog entry, it seems very promising.

Like you, I usually have reservations about group projects, but with the right mix of people this can open up a lot of doors -- love the idea of screens being updated on two sides of the world.

Take care
Debs

Thanks for sharing! Oct 21, 2009

Thanks a lot for sharing, Kevin!

We happen to be in the process of evaluating MemoQ server software (without the "online docs" for now) for our in-house team and I am very eager to report my results too! Our aim is to make it happen early next week... and we mean to make MemoQ sweat a bit with a sample of our biggest and trickiest projects. I promise to come back to this forum to report my findings.
