The Lionbridge Content Management System (CMS) Alliance Program is an ecosystem of CMS providers and system integrators who are committed to simplifying global content management and publishing.
Combining the expertise of all participants, Lionbridge uses Web Services to connect Freeway™, Lionbridge’s free, hosted translation management platform, to leading CMS platforms, helping clients greatly improve processes and lower the costs of global content management.
The bottom line is that companies who deliver global content can now have translation workflow embedded directly into their CMS systems without licensing, deploying, or integrating new GMS software.

Freeway + CMS = Simplified Global Content Management
The Lionbridge CMS Alliance Program enables clients to efficiently distribute content on a global scale, providing several benefits over more traditional methods:
- Improved Workflow for Content Managers – Since the CMS Alliance Program is open to any CMS provider, customers know that they will be able to leverage their investment in their current content management system. In addition, content managers will not need to redefine their process workflows in order to take their content global, and benefit from a fully managed services approach.
- Seamless Connection to Automate Processes – The Web Services architecture of the Freeway language management platform enables easy connectivity to the front end of the CMS platform, greatly reducing the time typically spent by content managers in integrating cumbersome language software programs into their CMS. In this way, translation management becomes the “plumbing” of the content management process, easing content globalization and allowing companies to focus on content development instead of process management.
- No Need for Additional Technology Purchases – Freeway is a Software as a Service platform free to Lionbridge customers, greatly reducing total cost of translation by removing additional software purchase costs, process redefinition time, and ongoing software maintenance costs for the customer.
Freeway is offered free to Lionbridge clients and translation partners as the foundation of a disciplined, managed service approach to translation management. By seamlessly connecting to a client’s CMS, Freeway helps reduce turnaround times, lower the total cost of production, and reach new markets, without investing in additional staff or software licenses.

Midtronics
"We have seen a growing demand for our products globally, which is driving a need to keep our newest content available to our increasing global customer base.
By managing the translation directly from within our Acumium WCMS, we can simplify our efforts of keeping our Web site and other marketing materials up- to-date without having to purchase and integrate additional translation management software.
This saves us critical time when launching new content, and ensures we are delivering a consistent message worldwide."

The Well Project
"As a respected women's organization dedicated to HIV+ education, The Well Project needed a global content management solution that could meet its ongoing global Web site expansion needs into various languages.
The ability to easily integrate Freeway with our Documentum platform enabled us to quickly and effectively reach at-risk women's communities around the world without having to deploy additional translation management software.
And, given the variant cultural sensitivity to this disease, having access to Lionbridge's in-country translators via Freeway's Web portal gave us the confidence that words were not only translated correctly, but localized to fit the different nationalities we support."
