    IBM Watson Speech to TextmemoQ
    Likelihood to Recommend
    IBM
    I would definitely recommend it, as it is one of the best speech-to-text applications available on the market. I gave 7 out of 10 because of the integration with third-party tools. Most organizations don't use the IBM ecosystem and are limited to a single environment, so they need to be easily integrated without being overly complex.

    memoQ
    I believe memoQ is the best CAT tool of all the ones I have tested. As a PM, it has a lot of file filters that are highly customizable. You can even use cascading filters to add extra filter settings to the default file filter. Also, the use of REGEX is almost available everywhere in memoQ. You can use regex for filenames, regex for tagging items in files, regex when importing items, regex when exporting translations, regex for QA checking, regex for filtering, etc. They also added a regex library so you can save your favorite regex and easily reuse them. From a translator's point of view, the LiveDocs functionality is something that no other CAT tool has (to my knowledge). With LiveDocs you can just add any type of document, and if it has selectable text, memoQ will search this text as if it were a TM while translating. Even for non-bilingual documents, this is really helpful as you can sometimes need to reference other materials while translating.

    Usability
    IBM
    IBM Watson Speech-to-Text usability is excellent, and I highly recommend it as well. It is faster, takes accurate notes, and summarizes the points accurately. Also, it is very easy to navigate through the transcripts. If there is a long team meeting, one can jump to the information without wasting much time, as it also reduces manual work.

    IBM
    It provides more flexible plans as compared to others. These plans are affordable for Small and medium-scale enterprises. They also offer free trial. IBM Watson has wider integration support with the help of API. It has very low latency in real time transcription. Also there is a formatting feature to Transcribe dates, times, currency etc as per the desired format

    memoQ
    We are using memoQ for only certain projects and it’s not our main tool. It’s relatively slow and sometimes it can get too complicated. It does the job in the end but we prefer Memsource because of its easy-to-use interface as time is very important for us as project managers.

    memoQ
    • Able to handle projects with difficult files that we would otherwise need to edit before translating.
    • Locking/tagging segments and strings with regex to reduce translation volume/cost.
