Zendesk ヘルプセンターを翻訳しよう

Zendesk currently offers a comprehensible multilingual feature, allowing you to easily add multiple languages to you Zendesk Guide. 

Unfortunately, translating a help center can quickly become a big, time consuming challenge, with hundreds of articles to translate…  

But, that’s where Weglot comes in! With translation solution Weglot, you can have your Zendesk help center multilingual in just minutes, with more than 100 languages supported (whereas Zendesk offers only 40). 

Plus, Zendesk’s multilingual option is only available as part of the Professional plan.
