Kentico EMS required

Features described on this page require the Kentico EMS license.

This service uses the Google Translate API to translate text. Google Translate is a paid service.

Character limit

This service has a 2000 character limit for every translation request. When translating pages, the service submits the content of every field and editable region as a separate unit, so the total number of characters per page is not restricted.
