Localize vs. Translate.com vs. Wordbee

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.

The user interface is excellent and straightforward. There are different levels of translation this application offers, and each level is priced differently. We can choose between a translator machine or a human translator.

It is easy to view two columns of source and target, and when using the filter to see just untranslated segments. TM and matches can be seen and differentiated easily. Scenarios where it is less appropriate are their spellcheck and filter areas, which could be improved by adding more options.
