Smartcat vs. WhiteSmoke

ABBY SmartCAT is truly a universal solution that can fit any type of organization from freelancers flying solo, to small team of translators and large translation agencies. Anyone who wants to establish themselves as a professional translator can benefit greatly from the CAT tool that SmartCAT offers absolutely free of charge, while teams will surely appreciate the collaborative features that make it possible to work simultaneously with other translators, proofreaders, editors and QA experts on a single project.

WhiteSmoke provides a plagiarism checker to aid in data processing with other online databases that may have similar content. WhiteSmoke supports the use of a style checker that includes grammar, punctuation, and other aspects that work together to create a grammar checker.
