What others have said about us.

A portfolio shows what we have done. Sometimes other people describe more clearly what it was like to work with us.

The following comments came to us spontaneously from clients, project managers, and business partners in several countries. We have abbreviated the names but retained each person’s role and field for context. The excerpts have been trimmed with a light hand and barely polished at all. They are too personal for that.

Selected voices

  • “… as far as quality is concerned, with you and Triacom, it feels like we are riding in the Mercedes of (German) translation. That’s where we want to be and how we want to feel. Rolls-Royces and Jaguars are too flashy, and they need too much gas anyway …” C. R., qualitative research director, market research company, Canada
  • “… got feedback on the first text you did. The client’s German representative had been ‘moved to tears’ by an exceptionally good German text. :-)” K. H., project manager, translation services, Finland
  • “I’ve been working with translations … for many years, and I have NEVER seen a specialist translation which was as good as this one. It was a pleasure to do this job.” B. B., managing director for Germany, office chair manufacturer, Norway
  • “… I really like what you and Thea did. Thank you for fitting this job into your schedule! I feel very good about presenting this to our client.” C. T.-H., managing director, marketing communications, USA
  • “I just wanted to say what a pleasure it is to work with you. You have responded very professionally and promptly to my requests for these little assignments, which, I am sure, have been somewhat distracting and maybe even annoying when you have larger projects from other clients to tend to.” R. M., CEO, translation services, USA
  • “… I just wanted to say THANKS for doing a great job on the … job. I really appreciate your willingness to do last-minute reviews and linguistic checks, etc. We delivered the project on time, and the client was VERY happy. They are coming out to visit us next week and plan to give us ALL their localization/translation work in the future. … Thank you so much.” B. W., project manager, localization services, USA
  • “… the client is extremely happy with the end result and with the fast turnaround. He said that he couldn’t be more pleased, so give yourselves a pat on the back. Thanks again for your amazing service. There is absolutely no way that we could have completed the project on time without you and your team of translators.” C. R., project manager, content management, Canada
  • “On Feb. 27, a jury of German ad folk and textile industry executives in Frankfurt voted one of our ads for Textile Solutions an exemplary specialist ad among more than 3,000 ad pages placed in TextilWirtschaft during the year 2000.” B. W., language director, advertising agency, Sweden

And a few more

  • “Thank you very much for the translations. You have done a great and professional job.” S. B., project manager, pharmaceutical company, Sweden
  • “The translation is perfect. Thanks a lot.” S. Y., project manager, software company, Germany
  • “First, I want to express my compliments for the excellent translations you provided me with.” S. Z., project manager, translation services, USA
  • “… thank you so much for your extra effort yesterday. Translators like you and Thea make my workflow much smoother.” A. C., project manager, translation services, USA

Naturally, feedback like this gives us reason to be pleased—and a little proud. It also puts some extra spring in our step.

And we listen just as carefully to criticism. Nobody is perfect—not all the time, anyway.
