What do you like best about Alconost?

Alсonost worked very quickly. I liked that the manager always gave an update on the status of the project, shared problems and promptly answered questions. The platform in which translators work is very convenient. You can get access there and monitor the status of translations in real time, as well as communicate with translators directly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Alconost?

Perhaps due to the peculiarities of the platform in which the translators work, the resulting translation files contained duplicate lines. However, I would like to add here that such errors were eliminated very quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Alconost solving and how is that benefiting you?

We asked Alсonost to translate a lot of geographical data from all over the world into 24 languages. The main difficulty was that the translators had at their disposal only the name in English without context about the country where this object is located. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Alconost?

A dedicated localization manager whom I can speak to any time via a dedicated slack channel is one of the best advantages of Aloconost. They also have a great system set up to talk with and receive/give feedback to localization partners around the globe. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Alconost?

I don't feel there is really anything to complain about Alconost. Their services have been outstanding and there has never been any hiccups on their end. Thank you! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Alconost solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have started a global service and wanted to localize it into multiple languages. Our service is also a WIP, which means constant updates, which in turn, means constant additional localization tasks. Alconost has played an essential role in making the whole process easy for us, and us having to speak with one Localization Manager for all our needs. The turnaround time is also very speedy, which is exactly what we needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Alconost?

What I like best is that a direct exchange with the translators is possible via Crowdin and thus questions can be answered quickly and effectively.

I am also very satisfied with our contact at Alconost, Olga. She is a very attentive person with whom I enjoy working. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Alconost?

Sometimes orders can get mixed up, it would be nice to have somehow a dashboard with all placed orders with a status for it (active, pending, done) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Alconost:

If you decide to work with Alconost, it makes sense to switch the translation process to a suitable localization tool at the same time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Alconost solving and how is that benefiting you?

I work for a software house where, in the spirit of continuous delivery, we often release relatively small new features that then need to be translated into 23 languages.

Alconost is the perfect service provider for this, as there are no or hardly any service fees on smaller orders.

In addition, the translators are very dedicated and ask many questions. We perform regular spot checks on the translations and have always been satisfied with the quality delivered.

Communication is smooth via e-mail and Crowdin (the localization tool). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Alconost?

One of the most convenient features is the ability to select the number of characters. Conveniently, it is possible to leave a comment for the translator. We also really like the form in which the translation is sent - from the table, you can immediately copy the necessary translation inside the service Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Alconost?

So far, we have not noticed any shortcomings in this service since we have been using it for only one month. Sometimes the translation of phrases is identical to the translation from Google Translate, so it is unclear how accurate and competent this translation is. But in general, we would recommend Alсonost as a translation service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Alconost:

The more data you provide to the translator, the more accurate it will be. Therefore, it is better to spend a little more time describing your request. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Alconost solving and how is that benefiting you?

Our team is developing mobile applications, and we constantly need professional translation. The service helps to translate text into a large number of languages. One of the most convenient features is the ability to select the number of characters. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Alconost?

They are open to fulfill e even unusual requests, they mastered Crowdin usage - perfect platform to manage your translations.

They really interested in getting feedback from users and improve over time - it isn't something of formality for them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Alconost?

Pricing always challenging - we have to batch requests for translation to have min amount of words to order. That's a limitation I think, but it is understandable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Alconost solving and how is that benefiting you?

Alconost stepped in when we understood that we can not longer really in inefficient translated.com. translations have become more precise, consistent and they are still delivered in time. Same people keep leading your project over time, so the knowledge is also being kept within project Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Alconost?

Easy translation process, customer-oriented approach and, most importantly, reliability in terms of deadlines and quality of work. The managers and translators are responsible, professional and trustworthy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Alconost?

I'm satisfied with everything. It is always tempting to save money and pay less for a service, but having worked with other agencies, I would rather pay the market price for a good, predictable result. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Alconost:

The more context you provide, the better the translation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Alconost solving and how is that benefiting you?

The company I work for is a network equipment vendor.

Alconost completely solves the task of translating marketing, legal and technical texts from English into other European languages for us, as well as continuous translation of the web interface of our devices, mobile application, our websites and web services, etc.

All translations are done through the Crowdin localization platform, into which Alconost is fully integrated, which is very convenient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Alconost?

Dedicated localization manager to help with any needs. Dedicated slack channel for easy communication. Customizable billing periods. Easy to communicate and receive feedback/questions from translators. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Alconost?

Overall experience has been great and there are really no complaints. If I were to nitpick, the platform they have us use to communicate with the translators can be a bit tricky to get use to at first, but the localization manager makes sure to guide you step by step. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Alconost solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are a SaaS company creating a global service. Tasked with helping us localize into 11 different languages, Alconost has been very easy to work with, professional, reliable, and affordable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Occasionally some translator doesn't read the context provided, but isn't happen very often and isn't a big problem most of the time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Giving as much information as possible to contextualize each project will help the translators and save your time giving the same information repeatedly. Also, using Crowdin as the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We've been working with Alconost for almost three years with 6 different game projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
