I use Amazon Translate plug-in in my regular translation
work. I realized that it does better in marketing and general texts. It still
suffers from some shortcomings when it comes to the specific linguistic
feature of Arabic. It makes some grammatical mistakes. It does not sound
natural in some instances because of using uncommon word combinations.

Localize
Localized fits perfectly for clients who would love to have their website localized. It offers great plugins and integrations with popular content management systems and serves as a translation management system for your website. Setup is rather easy, however, more complex setups would require a more technical approach which is not always possible.

I use Google Translate and Amazon Translate. I find them both helpful. What I like more about Amazon Translate is that I can control the privacy of my files. The text entered into Google Translate enters its database and might be used for further improvement of their service; however, I do not like exposing the data of my clients to a third party. Therefore, I find Amazon Translate wins by large in this regard.

Frankly, we don't know what other translation management systems are out there, so we can't comment on how they compare to Localize.
