Cloudwords
Cloudwords is well suited for getting translations of specific docs from users who are from a different language speaking area. in the past, we've tried to translate on our own, but it is time consuming and not always accurate, so cloudwords save us time and money with translation services

Smartling
Smartling is great for a company or team that doesn't have the resources to translate multiple properties in-house. It automates the process and makes it much more manageable. If you have a large website that is managed by one local team and not a global team, Smartling is for you.

Smartling
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.
