It takes what would have taken months with a third-party consultant, only minutes to translate an entire eLearning course. Not to mention the cost savings associated with using this platform compared to a consultant. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I wish the glossary would translate the words automatically and then highlight it in yellow aftwerwards to notify you of the change. I believe this would be much more efficient than going through each individual segment. Additionally, in the post-editing phase, I would like to see an option where you can look up a word and select all the appear in each segment, type in the correct translation, and translate all at once. Using individuals internally who are not as familiar with the platform in the post-editing phase, this becomes challenging to navigate. If they had this option to do it just once, it would be extremely helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
As a freelancer-translator, I take advantage of Smartcat. For projects with a lot of repetitions, you can create your TM (translation memory) and automate your work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Smartcat platform will not detect the language of your source document. Therefore, if you choose a wrong source language and choose a paid option, you loose your credits. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think smartcat is a very good plateform for translation bescause i have worked before as well in smartcat so i really like that plateform and it is very good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
the dislike of the smartcat is that it is gives us very less words for translation so it should give as a alot of words for translation and we should give good translation quality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's a great tool for a translator. Very easy to understand and maneuver. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
On my MacBook, using Google Chrome I can never login with email and password. It never recognizes it. And I end up having to always login with the code sent to email. It's an annoyance. Thanks for looking into it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The platform is easy and intuitive, you can set up small projects in a few seconds but also get the option to set up more advanced settings if required. TMs integration works like a charm. Machine Translation is also fairly good, although paid one is almost spotless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The only thing I really dislike is not being able to turn off warnings. My language pairs are Portuguese and Spanish, so sometimes the wording will be similar or actually the same and having to turn off manually the warnings so I can proceed is very tiring. Of course it's not a major issue, just a nuisance Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I love SmartCat because:
1. the system saves project managers time
2. the system covers from intake to invoice Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It focuses on Translation and not other services such as interpreting, DTP, and voice-over recording. So I have to enter manually. (Voiceover is entered as DTP)
Vendor evaluation function is not yet installed once we lost it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.


Smartcat offers an excellent cat tool at no cost, and help is available if needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
When doing translation jobs with smartcat we are invited to use Payoneer as a payment system, and payoneer is much worse in terms of service than any other payment system I know. They simply keep the money forever "in review".Never choose to use payoneer if you work with smartcat. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
