As of November 3rd, 2020 we will be disabling the Memsource Job Board. After this date it will no longer be possible for Project Managers and Administrators to publish jobs or respond to them through the Job Board and the page itself will be removed.

Opening jobs in the Memsource Editor for Web has now been speeded up substantially, with 99% of jobs now opening within 10 seconds. This has been achieved by lazy loading non-core features, optimizing the in-context preview, and other improvements of the application. The speeding-up has been accompanied by showing a percentage progress bar, improving the user experience.

Automated Project Creation can now be configured to continuously update an existing project. When enabled, a new project is created and used continuously for all updates to the source files already in that project, instead of creating a new project every time a source file change is detected.

As of 1st July, 2020, Memsource will discontinue support for Internet Explorer 11. Although users may be able to access and work in Memsource after this date with Internet Explorer 11, they will not be able to receive technical support or take advantage of new features with this browser.

Users are therefore encouraged to upgrade to one of the supported browsers listed here.

We understand that this change might inconvenience some users in the short term. Unfortunately, since active development has stopped for Internet Explorer 11, we have found it increasingly difficult to build and maintain the best possible experience for the end-user. We hope that in the long run everyone will benefit from more focused development on modern browsers.

Starting 30th June 2020, users will no longer be able to purchase new Machine Translation Quality Estimation (MTQE) characters for generic and customizable engines. This functionality will be newly available to all users of Memsource Translate as a part of the standard character pricing.

Users that have purchased MTQE characters will not see their balance affected. They will still be able to use their remaining balance, but will not be able to purchase new characters.

It is now possible to use hours as billing units when creating a price list and a quote. When using “hour” as a billing unit, time spent has to be entered manually for each language pair and workflow step. This can be done separately or in bulk.

Undo and redo operations have been added to the Memsource Editor for Mobile. Undo and redo can now be used within target segment texts and can also be applied at the segment level. This includes segment confirmation, segment locking, and repetition exception. Future updates will extend undo and redo operations to other features in the Memsource Editor for Mobile.

Providers can now open multiple jobs and work on them as one job in the Memsource Editor for Mobile. When multiple jobs are open, every job can be identified by its file name. Jobs can also be opened in read-only mode, which means that Linguists can review a job before accepting the work.

The filter and replace functionality in the Memsource Editor for Web has been redesigned to become more visible to users. Now, the functionality is accessible by means of a new toggle button and shortcut directly from the filter target text input field, which streamlines the whole process of replacing strings in filtered segments.

The users of Memsource Editor for Web and Memsource Editor for Desktop are now able to filter segments by the date of creation, and modification of segments and comments, while using a calendar feature for selecting a time range.

Opening project template pages now takes significantly less time and they’re easier to work with. Metadata drop-down fields (owner, client, domain, subdomain, cost center, business unit) in project templates now allow the user to narrow the results by typing in the input fields. Data in metadata and provider drop-downs are loaded lazily which means more data is loaded when the user reaches the bottom of the list by scrolling down.

Google Drive connector now supports shared drives (i.e Google Drive for Teams). Shared drive files belong to the team, instead of an individual. The Memsource connector allows the downloading of source files and uploading of target files directly to/from the repository.
