Our employees come from a wide range of experiences, backgrounds, and expertise—all of which help to shape our workplace.

Track Records of Client Satisfaction
As a leading provider of language solutions, EC Innovations enjoys an excellent reputation among its clients for high quality deliverables. For nearly two decades, we have been a strategic, long-term partner to many Global 1000 companies and multi-language localization vendors. Our client retention rate is an impressive 95% as measured over a five-year period. The largest percentage of our growth is due to client retention and increased business from existing clients.
Modular, Easy-to-Use Technology
EC Innovations places a strong emphasis on the development and use of innovative solutions. Our TBMS (Translation Business Management System) minimizes the management of localization projects by automating many manual tasks, resulting in significant cost and time savings. Our technology is modular as opposed to one-size-fits-all and is applied to meet the specific requirements of our clients.
An Operations-driven Approach
Most localization providers are sales-driven and revenue-oriented, promising flawless deliverables at the lowest possible price without considering the true cost of quality. The result? Once a salesperson has closed the deal, the production team must find a way to deliver on the promises while still making a profit. To achieve this, corners must often be cut. At EC Innovations, we take a different approach. Our sales team reports directly to operations, and our Operations personnel are involved in the sales cycle from the start. Since we price quality into our rates from the beginning, our clients can be confident we will deliver the right quality at the right price, every time. In other words, we would rather lose a project than lose our reputation. This philosophy has helped us build a reputation for quality that is unmatched in our industry.
