Translation management for white-label products

White-label SaaS products are services that one company offers to other subjects, which they can rebrand to make it look like their own product. The idea is simple, one company builds a software product, and offers other companies to buy it and use and sell as their own software.

The buyer or reseller buys the white-label product and rebrands it. And here comes the more complicated part. How to build a white-label software, so it is easy to adjust and rebrand for other, different companies? As different companies can have different ideas of the usage of your product, it must be easy to adjust it to different needs and users.

Translation in white-label products can be a challenging task, as different clients would like to show texts differently or change their meaning completely. Your white-label software should be prepared for such challenges and respond to the client's needs. A positive approach to such product adjustments or customizations, especially when it comes to simple changes, like translations, will only positively affect your product, customer relations and create new sales opportunities.

With little cost and effort, you can customize your product to meet the needs of different customers. SimpleLocalize will give you tools and environment for professional translation management for all your white-label product customers.

White-label SaaS products needs in terms of translation

Translation management, and in general text content management, is a considerable part of white-label software projects. Let's take an example of a booking engine software that different hotels can use on their website. The key in booking engine is its customization: the hotel adds photos, custom descriptions to make it fit perfectly into their website, style, and message.

Thus, it can be challenging to build one software that fits everyone needs. If you do not make all the texts customizable on the UI, then you start receiving requests from your clients, to change `About {hotelName}` header text to “Our Story”. You can't change that for all your customers, and you probably don't have time and resources to make such small customizations for just one client.

It is the same with translations. One client would translate some differently than the other, or would use an entirely different text instead. How to manage such client requests, multiple content versions and translations differing for your customers?

Alternative translations for white-label software

As a white-label software, you understand the need of simplicity in project files management. While your product is customized in many ways, your base software needs to be maintainable and easy to update and control.

Alternative translations offered by SimpleLocalize are a great way of managing different versions of content, not only for translations, but even for just one-language projects. It is an option where you can create different translation versions without duplicating any files or content. You just add another version of text requested by your customer.

Start with importing your existing translations and then add your customer IDs and create translation versions for them. You don't duplicate keys or translation files. Everything is in one place, and you change only the texts that need to be modified for your customers.

There is no limit of customers that you can create in SimpleLocalize. The business plan will help you manage all customer-specific translations and tailor your software to their specific needs.

Let your customers create their own translations version

Empower your customers by allowing them to create their own translation versions directly in the SimpleLocalize editor. This feature enables them to tailor the software to their specific needs without requiring your intervention.

By providing access to the translation editor, your customers can easily add, edit, and manage their translations. This not only saves you time but also ensures that the translations are accurate and meet the customer's expectations.

You can control the level of access your customers have, ensuring they can only modify the translations relevant to their version of the product. This flexibility allows for a more personalized experience for each customer while maintaining the integrity of your base software.

With SimpleLocalize, managing translations for white-label products becomes a seamless and efficient process. Your customers will appreciate the ability to customize their experience, and you'll benefit from reduced support requests and a more scalable solution.
