Amazon Translate vs. Smartling

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.

Smartling is great because I can use the Figma plugin to pull already translated strings into my project. If I need translations for the project, I can submit these strings from within and continue working on the next ask of the day. We also have great dev workflows built in: we submit one PR and a Smartling ticket, then, once the ticket is complete, run a simple command to pull in translated strings and refresh the project in a matter of seconds.

• 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!

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.

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.

• We can think in English and know that Smartling can localize and translate for the rest of the world's markets. This probably would have taken weeks, or at least a month, before Smartling, and now we can have translated strings for 150+ markets in a matter of a week.
