PROS & CONS

What are the best aspects of this product?

I appreciate how much of my time has been saved thanks to the fact that this tool allows for direct integrations, so I no longer have to manually update content. I also like that the task system in place allows for translators to not just be connected but to also have a clear idea of their roles, whether it is to adapt to changes in source, re-translation, translations, or review. The TMS features are all easy to use and modern, and all content and file types can be easily found thanks to the single central hub.

What aspects are problematic or could work better?

The user interface can be made more user-friendly since it may take a few weeks before you get the hang of it. Source string change management could also be improved. That said, I am also aware that there are updates constantly being released to address this and that the people behind this tool have always been open to suggestions and requests.

PROS & CONS

What are the best aspects of this product?

The best thing about this tool for me is how helpful and kind the customer support team is. They are always quick when it comes to providing solutions to the problems that we encounter, and I really like talking to them. There are also a number of features that I appreciate, such as an aesthetically-pleasing document, multiple integrations with source control, a nice Command Line Interface, as well as the ability to include photo screenshots.

What aspects are problematic or could work better?

One area where they can improve is by providing a feature that lets me delete several keys or even delete all keys. At present, if I want to get rid of a number of keys I have to do it one by one. It takes up a lot of time and I hope they can add this feature in future versions.

What are the best aspects of this product?

Since our team has integrated this to our existing web app, we've really been impressed with how easily this tool connects to the repository, acquires the most recent keys added by developers, and even pushes changes back to the repository with ease. This has made it easier to review translation workflows and is really something developers love using. I also appreciate the tools and integrations included for the different team members. Another thing I appreciate is how there are a number of views for editing, as well as how it provides us with translation suggestions from other software. There is also support for placeholders. I also want to commend on the friendly and intuitive design, which makes it easy to understand even if users don't read the documentation.
