Top Rated XTRF Translation Management System Alternatives
It is a system from the late 1980, based on the old way of doing thing, notging rational but layout is nice... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
This is a system created in Poland and it is not complicade but reminds me of Russia. Nothing can be simle, no shortcuts, if you update somthing in one place not enough there are another 4-5 places where you need to update the same thing. And when we complain - they say .... it is per design. And that is the problem, it is per design, the same design that created the Lada in Russia. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

XTRF, keeps you on top of all aspects of the project leading to high client satisfaction rate in a very easy and simple way. XTRF is fun to use, many tools are available to keep you in full control. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Can't think of anything really. maybe on very rare occasion it can get slow and files might take longer than usual or expected to upload to the portal. Other than that all is good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We like a lot XTRF's smart view and workflows such as all integrations with Memsource and Memoq Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
A little bit expensive if you'd need some customization.
For invoicing, for example, it's not possible to take off all the tasks, so if you have to invoice 2 projects of 24 languages, the Pro-Forma invoice will be almost 50 pages.
But it's 1% of 99% great things XTRF can do! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's super fast to create new invoices and you can change address and Legal name by yourself, don't need to wait for PM or SP to do it. Everything I need to know about company and invoicing process is easy to find and see Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
On tXTRF it is longer to credit invoice than on other systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Being always focused on minimalism and getting things done as fast as possible, I have chosen XTRF for the following reasons:
- Cloud-based: this was a major criterion since we work from various locations and want everybody to access the platform (management, project managers, vendor managers and, above all, vendors)
- Intuitive interface: finding fast the right function and button. Workflows area easy to follow with less and less human input.
- All info and reports in one place. Management and control comes from having the right reports available at the blink of an eye, with the metrics that matter most. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Pricing is one of dislikes. In some moments, it proved expensive for a period of time when workload was reduced. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It helps us create and manage all our projects so this software is already essential to our job, we have all the clients there, our rates, and our providers, we invoice there too. I love how it helps us keep track and control over everything and help us optimize time and do our job more efficiently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I don't like how difficult or complex it is at first, the software is not intuitive or easy to use at all so you have to train and learn from someone else how to use it. I also don't like when we have glitches or bugs in the system as we do everything there, so when that happens is not nice at all and it really makes our job harder and we lose time, as usually when we have those issues we have to wait at least a day so it gets resolved.

XTRF is a translation management system that can also handle non-translation jobs. The automated workflows make it easier for project managers to handle multiple projects at once and the integration with the biggest CAT tools even makes it easier for new project managers to get started with using CAT tools.

XTRF is a full translation system with a lot of functions, but we find that there are some functions missing for some of our needs. For example, we are located in Japan, and Japanese Yen does not handle decimals. You can set the decimals for currencies system-wide but not separately for each currency. If we only work in Japanese Yen, we can set it so that the systems does not work with decimals, but unfortunately we also have clients we work with in USD and EUR.

Complex system that integrates all aspect of translation job into one workplace. Very helpful Customer Support Team :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
So far, so good. Didn't notice any issues with the system Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Superb customer support, willingness to listen to feedback, provides open and honest responses.
Great workflow automation options.
System is complex and flexible for advanced or custom solutions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Legacy system (classic projects) could use some quality-of-life updates, but they come sparingly. Most improvements are focused on the new system (smart projects). But it's not mature yet for some CAT tool integrations.
High learning curve for advanced customizations, but XTRF provides great support while you learn. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It helps all of us who are involved in the translation, editing and/or proofreading process. In my case as an editor, it helps me a lot to know what time the projects arrive, what time I must deliver it, the word count and the amount that I will be paid. For me, XTRF is the ideal ally in my work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
