Across Personal Edition: Free CAT Tool for Freelance Translators

The Across Personal Edition is the standalone application developed by Across and offers full translation functionality, particularly for freelance translators.
The application assists you in re-using contents, controlling processes, and ensuring a high quality level. Thus, it speeds up the delivery of high-quality foreign-language contents to your customers and significantly reduces your own translation workload.

Standalone or Standby

The Across Personal Edition can be used either as a standalone application or as a remote client for direct access to Across Servers (crossWAN). Having installed your Across version you universally employ both operational modes:

As a Standby Remote Client for receiving tasks from Across users in the industry and agencies at all times. Your customer will provide you with a softkey containing the connection details of his server as well as the license for activating your client.
As a Standalone Personal Edition for standalone use, if you want to work without communicating with an Across network.

It's All at Your Fingertips!

Features of the Across Personal Edition include:

crossTank - the translation memory; the key to better translations for less money
crossTerm - the terminology system; as a central platform for all corporate language resources
crossDesk - the multi-format editor; for efficient translation processes independent of document format and its peculiarities
crossSearch - the research tool that provides seamless connection to terminology resources on the Internet
crossCheck - the quality management module that assures the quality of your translations
