How Qontour scales enterprise-grade localization for fast-growing companies

Challenge: Localization came late, and needs evolved beyond native CMS tooling

Historically, localization would come up late in conversations (if it came up at all) – after scoping, after technology decisions, and often managed by another team. But 2025 marked a turning point. As Qontour's client relationships continued to deepen and their reputation grew, they found themselves invited to more strategic conversations. Clients weren't just asking for websites anymore; instead, they were asking: How do we scale our marketing globally? How do we move faster? How do we make this easier for our teams?

They were evolving from a website development agency into a marketing enablement partner, and needed to shift from scoping individual projects to building a powerful and scalable technology stack.

And localization needed to be part of that core offering.

When native localization is no longer enough

As a Premium Webflow Enterprise Partner, Qontour naturally explored Webflow's built-in localization tools first. For smaller projects with a limited number of locales, these tools work well, they’re fast to deploy, cost-effective, and deeply integrated into Webflow’s architecture, delivering strong value out of the box.

However, as Qontour began supporting larger, more complex enterprise deployments, new requirements emerged. One such project, for an enterprise client in the cybersecurity space, highlighted the need for more advanced localization capabilities.

For enterprise teams, especially in industries like cybersecurity where precision is non-negotiable, localization workflows need stronger safeguards. Capabilities such as translation memory to ensure consistency, and robust quality controls to catch issues before content goes live, become essential.

Solution: A strategic partnership with a best-in-class, full- featured localization platform

When Qontour began researching localization platforms, they evaluated multiple vendors. 

But Lokalise became their number one choice for several reasons:

Lokalise has become our preferred localization platform for clients seeking an effective, scalable solution. Its next-level features—combined with frictionless onboarding and excellent support—empower forward-looking brands like Cyera to scale globally with speed, quality, and confidence.

1. AI-driven localization with flexible quality controls

Speed to market often determines competitive advantage for Qontour's clients, but it shouldn't mean they compromise accuracy. Lokalise's flexible translation options let them combine AI automation (for efficiency) with human review (when content accuracy is essential).

AI is streamlining things and automating and doing things at a scale that humans are just not capable of doing, with a level of precision and accuracy at the same time.

This flexibility allows teams to customize workflows based on content type, market importance, and quality requirements—launching quickly while maintaining the quality standards their clients demand, which aligns perfectly with Qontour's philosophy of technology-enabled scale.

2. The Webflow connection

As a Premium Webflow Enterprise Partner building 100% of their sites on Webflow’s WXP (Website Experience Platform), Qontour needed a localization solution that worked with Webflow, not around it.

It really helps that Lokalise is Webflow's 2025 partner of the year. It makes it very easy to say Lokalise will be part of our core strategy next year.

The native integration meant smoother workflows, faster deployments, and fewer technical headaches, critical for an agency managing multiple client projects simultaneously.

3. Enterprise-grade capabilities that match client expectations

Qontour's clients are building advanced, mission-critical technology, and recognize smart solutions when they see them. 

Lokalise delivered the capabilities that Webflow's native solution couldn't: translation memory to ensure consistency, robust quality controls to prevent errors, and the ability to scale across multiple locales without compromising accuracy.

For an enterprise-class site that is very serious about localization accuracy and wants to scale, a platform like Lokalise is essential.

4. Transparency and client empowerment

Qontour has always operated with a philosophy of transparency. They don't build proprietary systems that lock clients in. Everything is documented, inheritable, and self-serve. If they walk away tomorrow, clients are enabled to maintain their sites without leaning on external resources. They needed a localization partner that shared this ethos.

According to Gala, "We're not a black box. We want clients in the dashboard, using the platform. We want them to learn how to tune things themselves and understand how it works." 

Lokalise's intuitive,client-friendly interface, excellent customer support, and collaborative approach aligned perfectly. They empower clients to see, understand, and participate in localization as it happens.

Implementation: Integrating Lokalise into client projects

Qontour's approach to localization mirrors their broader philosophy: understand the client's business process first, then implement user experience and technology solutions that enable site scalability and brand amplification.

During their initial discovery (and as relationships continue to evolve), Qontour identifies global expansion plans and proactively raises the localization conversation. When clients show interest, Qontour positions itself as a strategic advisor rather than a platform vendor.

After providing research and recommendations, Qontour encourages clients to demo several localization platforms, ask questions, and experience Lokalise firsthand. This approach ensures clients feel ownership over the decision and understand exactly what they're investing in.

We like to be a matchmaker in that situation. We don't license the platform; our clients do. We want the Lokalise team to sell Lokalise because we want our customers to be fully invested and fully happy.

Once a client chooses Lokalise, Qontour handles the technical integration with Webflow while ensuring the client's team is trained and comfortable using the platform independently.

The result? Clients quickly become self-sufficient – managing translations, launching new locales, and scaling globally without constant dependency on agencies or other third parties
 

Results: From vendor to strategic partner

Qontour has seen a noticeable impact on its clients.

The Cyera success story

Cyera, widely recognized as the fastest-growing data security company and a long-time Qontour partner, came to them ready to scale globally. They wanted to start rolling out into different locales and needed a platform that could keep pace with their explosive growth.

After evaluating multiple options with Qontour's guidance, Cyera chose Lokalise.

The impact was immediate. 

Cyera launched its first locale quickly, then rapidly deployed a second, all without the bottlenecks of traditional manual translation processes. 

Translation memory and collaborative workflows meant content remained consistent across regions, while seamless integrations allowed the team to manage multiple locales without added overhead or operational complexity. 

The platform proved so intuitive and effective that Cyera became largely self-sufficient, managing translations, launching new locales, and scaling globally without requiring constant agency involvement.

Lokalise makes it simple for us to adapt our website content into multiple languages and expand into new markets. The platform streamlines collaboration, ensures consistency, and improves quality, allowing our team to focus on refining our positioning and amplifying our messaging rather than managing translation logistics.

 

The Cyera Team

"That's exactly what we hope for with clients, to be enabled to the point where they're hands-on and comfortable," says Gala. 

For a company experiencing hypergrowth, the ability to expand internationally without adding friction or overhead is essential to remaining competitive.

Future: Proactive growth and making localization core

As Qontour enters its fourth year of operation, they're doubling down on the philosophy that's driven them from the start: small team, massive impact – enabled by smart technology.

Lokalise fits perfectly into that vision: not just as a tool, but as a true partner.

Building the 2026 vision

The Cyera success story solidified what Qontour had suspected: localization wasn't just a nice-to-have bolt-on service. It was essential infrastructure for any client with global ambitions.

Now, Qontour is recommending Lokalise as a core component of their integrated technology stack to help clients scale globally in record time.

Building Lokalise into our core offering means if you're going to do any kind of localization now or in the future, this is what we use. And this is not only what we recommend, but we recommend it for all of these reasons.

 

Gala Aranaga

Founder & CEO at Qontour

For 2026, Qontour is planning to expand its localization capabilities even further, leaning on AI-driven workflows and collaborative features to help clients scale even faster.

They're building a localization lab, a demonstration environment where they can show clients real-time examples of Webflow + Lokalise integration in action, including AI-powered translation workflows. 

They're deploying Lokalise on their own site ("The best way to learn a platform is to use it," Gala says). And they're creating data-driven case studies leveraging the high-traffic sites they manage to demonstrate localization's business impact.

Most importantly, they're shifting from reactive to proactive localization discussions, actively positioning localization as essential infrastructure for global growth rather than waiting for it to surface organically.

When it comes to platform providers or tools, everyone thinks it's just this bolt-on feature, something that's bolted onto the website. But ultimately, it should be more than that. You have a combined vision, a shared vision of success for that brand, and you're participating in that brand's success.
