This service is well suited for scenarios where you need to integrate text-to-speech and/or speech-to-text into applications. Within our organisation, it is primarily used by students for development purposes to enable said functionality but is also used to provide accessibility to students who have hearing-related issues. Its multi-language support is also beneficial for our international students who have English as a second language and are therefore able to rapidly translate any text or speech that they do not understand.

The integration is very easy implemented with email client or web browser, you can translate emails, web pages and quality of translation is on top. Regarding document translation it gives you only 3 formats of documents (.pdf, .pptx and .docx), in my experience this type of documents are sufficient, however it would be better to see other type of documents as well. Also, you have to convert your old document in Word or PowerPoint to latest version, otherwise program won't accept it.

  • Limits of the free version: 5MB and 5000 words. No problems with the paid version
  • Because it is the only software that translates documents while preserving the images and design of the original, it sometimes makes errors in output with aesthetically complex layouts

Azure Cognitive Speech Services is simple and the interface is not complicated even for those getting started with these customer services tools and the best voice recognition. Setting the platform dashboard preferences is also an easy process and with the ability to manage workflow and document management the system functions are stable and effective.

DeepL thanks to AI produces results identical to Google Translate or in many cases much better and closer to reality.This helps a lot, especially when translating and reading long documents (instead of testing our patience to understand the translated meaning of technical documents).In addition, features such as translating text to images via ocr is amazing and very fast in both input (keyboard shortcut) and output.
