Pros from Real Users Pros I love the seamless integration with code repositories, which has allowed us to easily automate content updates. This greatly streamlines our workflow and allows us to keep our translations always up to date. I love how it allows us to scale our localization efficiently. With the integrations, I can easily automate the synchronization of content between our online store and Crowdin. In addition, its powerful online editor allows our translators to work collaboratively anytime, anywhere. - Easy to use. - Full of helpful features, especially the suggested translations from machine-translation (MT) and translation history. - Great for beginners. - Straightforward interface. It easily integrated with our existing tools and platforms, which has allowed us to automate the localization process and save time and resources. In addition, their top-notch support has made the localization process simple and efficient. I like that it is so easy to used it and that everyone can help by the translations so you can work fastest on the translations from websites and programs. We use this platform to improve our efficiency by saving time in managing translations and it has allowed us to deliver high quality translations to our clients. In addition, it provides robust project management tools, allowing me to keep track of the translator's work. Quality assurance tools ensure accuracy and consistency of translations, which is crucial for maintaining reputation and driving company growth. Integration with other popular tools such as GitHub and Slack allows for more efficient collaboration and project management. Very fast to set up with a very nice GitHub interaction. Can be used to translate nearly anything. I used Crowdin to translate apps, Minecraft, Minecraft mods and many other things. Having a discussion feature to talk about translations right next to them is amazing and I can't wait to see what we can do with advanced extensions like ChatGPT. * Online editor for translations * Good UX/DX: upload translations in various formats, deploy data pipelines for exporting I like being able to preview content in multiple languages and customize translations before deploying them, which ensures accurate and quality localization. The AI-assisted translation feature provides us with fast and accurate translations, saving time and improving the efficiency of the localization process.		Pros & Cons from Real Users Pros Found it very easy to use and maintain, although our website code is locked down so I had to get IT to add it to individual US pages on our worldwide site. We needed what we thought was a simple, low-cost solution to provide American Spanish translation of our American English web pages. I researched a lot of companies but Localize came to be the sole option, given our limited resources. It is near impossible to find non-Spain Spanish auto translation. We bought the cheapest plan and it has been good. Translations happen quickly; no need to individually feed every changed sentence through to a person, which I dreaded. It's just me and the website. Of course, AI doesn't match the quality of human translations, but, for our needs, this is currently acceptable. I have contacted Support a number of times and their responses are quick, usually within the hour, and stated simply, so that someone like me can understand and learn. They were able to help me resolve my issue very quickly and were easy to communicate with. The tool is easy to use as well. Fairly easy to setup. Great option to offer multiple languages on your site / app. Customer success team is amazing. Strong product documentation. Robust features to help automate translations or phrases that repeat. The email alerts for phrase approval is also helpful. Cons Usage tracking is minimal (individual plan). There's rolling 30-day total that changes daily. I manually go in every day to grab the number, which I then add to my Excel doc. 1) On the cheapest plan, statistics are minimal: only number of page views. The number changes daily, reflecting the previous 30-days of page views, so I track it manually. 2) I am always moving Archived stuff back into Published. I wish it stayed Published. 3) Translating a page does not affect the page URL. Something to keep in mind if you need an ad to link to a translated "page". Or wish to track usage. I had a hard time ramping up, but once I learned how everything worked, it was great! While it is fairly easy to setup, there are some confusing components that can be overwhelming at first to people that are non-technical.
