Trados Studio 2022: Over 250 customer requests addressed!

Nicole Loney

In May we released Trados Studio 2022, the latest release of our computer-assisted translation software. As with every release, Trados Studio 2022 brings new features and functionality to help users improve efficiencies and keep costs down- this release in particular enhances the synchronisation between Trados Studio and our cloud platform, enabling you to more effectively combine the power of both environments. In addition, it introduces a new ‘Manager view’ (in beta) offering users the option to manage projects and files more intuitively from one Studio view.  

Being innovative is of course a key priority for us, however, we also remain committed to refining existing use cases and working through any issues to improve our customers’ experience - in Studio 2022 we believe we’ve successfully balanced both objectives, delivering something for everyone. 

So then, how have we refined existing use cases? Over the last 18 months, we have spent an enormous amount of time reviewing suggestions received through our online community, by our support teams, on social media platforms and the like, to identify a list of priorities. And we are now very pleased to announce that we have delivered over 250 customer requests in the Trados Studio 2022 release– over 100% more than in Trados Studio 2021! This is a massive feat by our development teams and we’re very proud of what we have accomplished.
