I found the conference very useful, especially for those (like me) that are learning the ropes on CAT tools. Like a colleague has already said, I will review the videos, as the info was overwhelming. I'm happy to be on Proz.com and being able to attend these sessions (and free, which is important for freelancers ;) ) Thank you.

09:59 May 28, 2014 István Lengyel: 142959 All Go ahead, Roberto! :)
09:59 May 28, 2014 Nelia Fahloun (X): 1070099 All Thanks Istvan.
09:59 May 28, 2014 Edit Erdodi: 1648720 All Hi everyone :)
09:59 May 28, 2014 Ana Luiza Iaria (X): 2829 All Hi everyone!
09:59 May 28, 2014 Angela Nery: 632598 All Hi everyone!
09:59 May 28, 2014 Roberto Silva: 63936 All (1) What is the web version cost? (not the server/cloud but the individual memoQ web translator
09:59 May 28, 2014 Sandor Papp: 1193492 All Hi Ana, so great to have you here, too ;-)
10:00 May 28, 2014 István Lengyel: 142959 All You are welcome, Nelia. Nice to see you here after Twtiter :)
10:00 May 28, 2014 Ana Luiza Iaria (X): 2829 All In between jobs, Sandor ;-)
10:00 May 28, 2014 István Lengyel: 142959 All Roberto: the web version is only available in the cloud. There is no individual license for web.
10:00 May 28, 2014 Roberto Silva: 63936 All (2) Integration of memoQ with Plunet and XTRF can only be done using the server version. Is this correct?
10:00 May 28, 2014 István Lengyel: 142959 All Ana,you should rather say in between two cat pictures :)
10:00 May 28, 2014 Nelia Fahloun (X): 1070099 All Oh yes, it's true, you know me from Twitter ;) When are you guys coming to France for an event?
10:00 May 28, 2014 Ana Luiza Iaria (X): 2829 All No idea where the critters are ;_)
10:00 May 28, 2014 István Lengyel: 142959 All Roberto: Yes, that's correct. But if you are using memoQ, you can actually use Language Terminal with the translator pro too.
10:01 May 28, 2014 Roberto Silva: 63936 All Do you mean that the web version is available to licensed users of the cloud version?
10:01 May 28, 2014 István Lengyel: 142959 All Nelia: we don't do a lot of live events these days except our conferences, and unfortunately there is no "public" event in France - except a games conference:(
10:02 May 28, 2014 István Lengyel: 142959 All Roberto: yes, if you have a cloud server with 1 PM edition, you can also use the web. The web is actually a translation/review interface, not more than that, so don't expect to create projects there.
10:02 May 28, 2014 Irene Valente: 1718503 All Bernardo explained so well Language Terminal. Last Saturday on o/ Proz regional event.
10:02 May 28, 2014 Roberto Silva: 63936 All OK. I thought the web version was currently more on the line of MemSource, Wordbee, XTM and the likes...
10:04 May 28, 2014 Sandor Papp: 1193492 All Thanks for sharing, Irene. Happy to hear you enjoyed it. Hope that you will attend today's session on Language Terminal as well ;*)
10:04 May 28, 2014 István Lengyel: 142959 All Irene: Language Terminal is a strong part of our strategy, so I am glad he did it so well!
10:04 May 28, 2014 Roberto Silva: 63936 All Thank you very much for your quick and clear answers.
