Quick definition
What Are Software Translation Services?
Software translation services translate and localize the text inside software and IT products, including user interfaces, strings, help content, documentation and programming files, so the product works and feels native in each market. Localization goes further than translation, adapting formats, layouts and cultural details, then testing the localized build.

What Is the Difference Between Software Translation, Localization and Internationalization?
Localization builds on translation, and works best when the code has been internationalized first.
| Translation | Localization | Internationalization (i18n) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| What it is | Converting text to another language | Adapting the whole product for a market | Engineering the code so it can be localized |
| Covers | UI strings, docs, help content | Text, formats, layouts, images, cultural details | Unicode, string externalization, flexible layouts |
| Who does it | Linguists | Linguists, engineers and QA testers | Your developers |
| When | Each release | Each release and market | Once, early in development |
| Result | Readable text | A product that feels native | A product ready for any language |
