Chose Lokalise
We were actually intended to get Localize instead of Lokalise, the naming is very confusing.

Localize
Localized fits perfectly for clients who would love to have their website localized. It offers great plugins and integrations with popular content management systems and serves as a translation management system for your website. Setup is rather easy, however, more complex setups would require a more technical approach which is not always possible.

We used the service for almost 2 years, initially the decision was very tight when comparing to similar providers. There are many services that can do similar functions to what Lokalise to, given the many providers existing, if I were to choose again I'd be looking for lower price and better cancellation policies, versus aggressive sales tactics that result in loss of trust for a couple bucks.
