Conference feedback

Today's event was highly beneficial and helpful.


Everything was amazing. I am mentored big time!!! I cannot go without commenting on the presentation, great!!!.


Good morning,
Many thanks for the opportunity to stay in touch with the developments in the translation field, while I only had the opportunity to follow just a presentation by Mrs. Braeuer on 30th Sept. I am glad to have had a look at the current trends, thanks very much!

As a newcomer to the world of CAT tools I wish to convey my thoughts about these presentations. I found them to be very clear and the information is presented in such a way to enable me to learn rapidly. Thank you. Happy International Translation Day!


I have tried to recall as much information as I could but it was overwhelming! I will have to watch the conferences again on demand to be able to get all this valuable information. Thanks a lot for your time to share your knowledge!!!

I'm afraid I couldn't access the chat rooms. A pop up message appeared and the screen became unresponsive. Was it to do with the Flash Player?

11:22 Apr 8, 2014 Epameinondas Soufleros: 951887 All Yes, perhaps an option like "Auto-translate even when the target segment is not empty"
11:23 Apr 8, 2014 Ali Bayraktar: 710657 All I got 2 same mails
11:23 Apr 8, 2014 Epameinondas Soufleros: 951887 All Would help in some cases. I come across this need quite often in some software projects I do. It's not a necessity, but a convenience rather.
11:23 Apr 8, 2014 Ali Bayraktar: 710657 All both of them same but sent 1 minute after each other
11:23 Apr 8, 2014 Pavel Tsvetkov: 634408 All A good way to find out what general customers think is to visit more requently the www.proz.com deja vu forum: http://www.proz.com/forum/d%C3%A9j%C3%A0_vu_support-85.html
11:23 Apr 8, 2014 Cathy_Atril: 1469690 All Yes, we have received your online order and PayPal has confirmed your payment. We'll email your invoice and your +1 activation code for DVX3 Pro within 24 hours.

11:25 Apr 8, 2014 Epameinondas Soufleros: 951887 All Can I change the subject and ask a totally different technical question?
11:25 Apr 8, 2014 Daniel Benito: 1130548 All Pavel: that's not entirely true... there are many more people on the dejavu-l Yahoo group than on the ProZ forums
11:25 Apr 8, 2014 Daniel Benito: 1130548 All Epameinondas: sure
11:25 Apr 8, 2014 Epameinondas Soufleros: 951887 All (exactly... and those posts by mikhailo are not exactly opinions...)
11:26 Apr 8, 2014 Epameinondas Soufleros: 951887 All My question is: are there any plans to offer a 'cloud' tool like a TEAMServer but for individual translators instead of teams?
11:26 Apr 8, 2014 Epameinondas Soufleros: 951887 All (With a different name, obviously...)
11:26 Apr 8, 2014 Ali Bayraktar: 710657 All I think you are doing something wrong about the prices here Atril Team.
11:27 Apr 8, 2014 Ali Bayraktar: 710657 All Your product drops to very feasible price but you dont publish it adequately everywhere
11:27 Apr 8, 2014 Pavel Tsvetkov: 634408 All Yes, prices...
11:27 Apr 8, 2014 Epameinondas Soufleros: 951887 All In order to keep track of (and backup/sync) projects, SQL statements, lists of clients, TMs, TBs...
11:27 Apr 8, 2014 Daniel Benito: 1130548 All Epameinondas: so basically a single-user TEAMserver TM hosted by us?
11:27 Apr 8, 2014 Ali Bayraktar: 710657 All I did not see any note anywhere saying that Atril Dejavu will be 294 EURO if to participate in this event
11:28 Apr 8, 2014 Epameinondas Soufleros: 951887 All Yes, exactly! I had mentioned that to Blandine on 30 September, here on ProZ, and she was positive.
11:28 Apr 8, 2014 Blandine-ATRIL: 1459982 All Ali, we posted it on the yahoo forum and our social networks
11:28 Apr 8, 2014 Epameinondas Soufleros: 951887 All Indeed, she gave me the impression that such a thing was already in the pipeline :-)
11:28 Apr 8, 2014 Daniel Benito: 1130548 All Ali: we keep mentioning it on this chat room, and it was also in the reminder for the virtual event
