akaTrans vs. Smartling

It is perfect for texts that are used regularly and with more or less slight variations. For any other text, its appropriateness depends greatly on the context provided. The segmentation that helps automate repetitive tasks makes it difficult to properly translate other texts - unless the full context of the document is provided.

• We look forward to seeing more in-depth reporting and user management features specifically for translation agencies that handle multiple client accounts

I have never seen a software company working so diligently to make improvements in a constant and consistent way. Their tool has truly transformed and made a great impact to localization industry

I do think Smartling has a very high usability. It is easy to access, straightforward in what it can do and has a user-friendly design. It is also highly adaptable, though I wish there was a way to set more keyboard shortcuts for functionalities where they are not currently available.

I always receive timely and pleasant support from their Help Desk!

We prefer Smartling as an online CAT tool because it is easy to use and we can onboard new translators quickly without lengthy training cycles. Our customers like Smartling because they can manage all of their translation needs (website, apps, business documents) through one single platform, share style guides, glossaries and translation memory and save on translation cost over time.

• Saves us from doing five times the work to keep our localized websites synced.
• Can be managed by one person based in the USA (does not require a global team).
