Amazon Translate vs Smartling

Likelihood to Recommend

Amazon Translate is very well suited if you are bored with the traditional Google translator. It supports all the languages which are mainly used all over the world. It helps you to communicate with any person all over the world as it removes the barrier of languages. To my organization it help us to see the specific requirements and invoices of the clients of different countries.

It does not require heavy webpage loading so it's much quicker than other translator available. One can implement Amazon Translate on any website according to requirements.

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.
