10 Translated Reviews
There is nothing to like, they're a complete scam Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I am incredibly disappointed with the service provided by Translated.com. We expected a professional, localized translation, but what we received was a poor-quality translation riddled with fundamental errors. These mistakes were so blatant that any student in a basic translation course would have failed with this output. The translations were literal, robotic renditions with zero understanding of cultural context or nuance, despite specific request for a localized approach. When questioned, the agency dismissed these serious errors as "stylistic choices" — even though multiple native speakers both within and outside our company agreed that we would have gotten a better result using free tools like DeepL or Google Translate.
The process itself was just as disappointing. Initially, they acknowledged our concerns, but after several back-and-forths, they changed their position and insisted on a "QA round". This only stalled the issue, and they ultimately forced us to pay for a subpar product, offering a small discount that didn't even begin to cover the additional time and resources we had to allocate internally to correct their work.

I like how versatile they can be. They also provide other alternative translations if you feel like you would need to make your translation more formal for business type rather than informal. Also, their translation is closer to being spot-on than other platforms. This is not only useful for businesses but also for students who are trying to learn other language.

Probably the only thing I dislike is the slow response from their customer service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
On the contrary, I helped escalate issues from the previous release of projects. And my kind advice was taken for granted; regardless, those were less than 5 bucks POs. All can join as translators and choose different language pairs with one single mother language. No test exam was required, not to mention those linguists explained "I have a full-time job" as an excuse for severe incidents found by others. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Project Managers are all very kind to freelancers. My main field is software localization given the solid experiences learned from my previous positions. For those IT projects I was involved, I kept wondering how Translated acquired their "dedicated" Mandarin Chinese and Traditional Chinese linguists, there were always severe translation errors found in the tasks, although it wasn't my task scope to review. I literally spent more time on reporting the issues to PM in most purchasing orders I accepted. Translated has a strict policy for translator to choose only one native language, but these linguists could not identify the errors in their own mother language. For the records I've filed, and long thread communications, Translated eventually trusted in my recommendations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really appreciate programs that are just easy to use and straight to the point Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I outsourced the translation of an 800-word post for a corporate blog of one of my clients, as I did not have time to take care of it myself.
The translation was for a client that I have been working for for many years now, so my intention was to proofread the translation provided by Translated carefully and edite where necessary. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like the fact that it is so easy to request the translation — I sent it to them via MateCat and never had to talk to an agent. It was fast and convenient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
