Volunteer Translator Computer Games Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Crowdin is one of the best platforms for Game Localization" September 30, 2025 5.0 I'm reviewing Crowdin's website, on Chrome, both on the PC and on mobile, since I never used the app. Crowdin is a very useful tool for software localization and team projects. I've started using it in 2020 and it has been a really great experience. The platform offers many options for volunteer translation and localization, which can be an interesting way to get into this market and acquire the know-how. Also, in the project I've been helping the most, I've found a very specialized team of translators that have helped me by teaching the nuances of Game Localization, an opportunity, I believe, very few people have. Overall, Crowdin's features make crowdsourcing feel rewarding. As such, I believe it is one of the best platforms for Game Localization Pros Crowdin is very intuitive. I had never used a CAT tool before, and I learned how to use it very fast; I liked Crowdin so much that I became a bit too attached to it. Those who want to translate can use it for free. For project managers, there are many paid options. I can't describe further, as I have never created or managed a project. The design is clear and simple, and the editor has 4 view options for different purposes. All the project's text is divided into strings, and in each string you can see all the translations suggested and approved so far (from the language you selected, from Translation Memory and Machine Translation, and also from other languages), and the comments made from other people from all the languages. Beyond that, you can always check the glossary (that you can also feed), and search for a specific term in the source language to see how it was translated into the target language. The editor has more features, such as integration with other softwares (e.g. CAT tools); however, I can't say much about them as I have not used them. The main features of the editor make it a reliable tool for any project; especially in the case of technical translations, there is little need to use an internet search engine, as you can feed the software with any information you like - such as pictures, very useful for clarifying context. Of course, searching for info from another source is important, however Crowdin has alternatives that accelerate that process. Another important feature is the approval system: managers can choose some members as proofreaders, and these members will be responsible for approving translations. Ideally, only approved translations - i.e., those judged the best by the proofreaders - will actually make part of the localized software. In the project I help the most, there is a team of paid proofreaders that also translate, and they go through all of the suggestions to choose the best one. This is crucial, as the project is public and many translators are volunteers with little to no experience in localization and/or fluency in the source language. In the project, you can also check for tasks from the managers; the statistics about contributions; a log of everything done by every member; and a public forum for discussions. The website is very safe, as I have not been hacked any time, nor any of the colleagues I know. No project I am a member of has been attacked somehow by hackers and/or griffers. Crowdin has an in-built system of attributing money to tasks (based on characters, words, strings etc. translated and approved). I can't describe it, as I have always worked as a volunteer translator. Cons There's very little stuff I dislike about Crowdin. The lack of a more accessible log of translations makes it hard to trace translations that have been deleted or lost for some reason. The current log also doesn't allow you to use words to search for translations. From what I've used, the in-build private messaging system is a bit buggy and laggy, and I prefer using other messenger softwares. It could be certainly improved. There could be features for avoiding flooding in the editor. Sometimes, (unexperienced) users will flood strings with very poor translations that visually pollute the editor, or send a series of useless comments as problems to be solved, and then the proofreaders will have to repeatedly solve the problems and delete the suggestions, or just have to ignore them.

The work in Crowdin on shorter strings is quite pleasant, but I don't like to work in it on longer strings. Pros I like Crowdin's simplicity, as it is perfect for shorter strings of text (I will mention this in the next section too). I haven't encountered too many bugs and issues, and I really like the TM searches. Cons What I don't like about Crowdin is that for the longer strings, it's really difficult to work on them, especially when the string takes more than 3 sentences. I would love to have an option to make smaller segments out of a big chunk of text, as sometimes the text is so long, that I cannot see my translation (not mentioning the TM match) if I don't scroll the whole screen, which is really annoying. Moreover, I would love to have crowdin show the TM matches for the terms appearing in the text on the right of the screen, like the competitors' software does (it's really helpful, especially for the terms etc). Sometimes I also encounter a bug where the cursor doesn't show the real editing point, but recently this is quite rare. I am not sure if it's a bug or a process problem: sometimes the screenshots in Preview menu doesn't show. Review Source OD Olivier D.

There's a lot going on here and there are many integrations possible. Finding the right settings to get the job done can take some getting used to. But, once you've mastered your localization workflow, Crowdin will become an indispensable time saver. Pros I setup Crowdin to use either DeepL or Microsoft Translator machine translations. It makes it easy to obtain a first draft of translations and the Editor also makes it easy to spot potential quality issues and correct translations. The team from Support are always extremely helpful. Cons I struggled with the GitHub Synchronization in the beginning and had to revert syncs several times before the Integrations settings were right! I found the wording in the UI sometimes misleading. I suggest keeping the following localization workflow in mind: "The current Crowdin-GitHub integration follows an industry-standard localization workflow where the Git repository remains the single source of truth for all code and source strings. Here's why this workflow is the most effective for most of our users: Version Control: Keeping your source strings in GitHub ensures they are part of your main codebase and are subject to your existing version control, branching, and review processes. Continuous Localization: The integration is designed to automatically check for new strings in your repository and pull them into Crowdin. Once translators complete the work, the translated files are automatically pushed back to your repository, ready for deployment. This creates a seamless, automated loop that is essential for continuous localization. This approach keeps Crowdin focused on what it does best—providing a powerful environment for translation and collaboration—while relying on GitHub for source code management." Lastly, being a small indie developer, I found the pricing (at €52/month) a bit steep, especially considering that only 1 integration and no sync reversion is possible in the free plan.

Crowdin offers simple and user-friendly UI and UX that everyone can quickly master. Translations are easy, you can vote for and against existing ones, add different languages, translation variants and many other features that I haven't used yet. Pros Very useful tool for everyone who likes to translate strings within apps or any other tools that uses crowdin. Cons Actually there is nothing I don't like about crowdin, because for my usage I have everything I need. Maybe other translator tools may be missing, but that's nothing major. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Volunteer Translator Computer Games Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "An Intuitive and Reliable Platform for Translators" October 15, 2025 5.0 Overall, my experience with Crowdin has been excellent. The platform balances functionality and accessibility very well: the learning curve is short, the user interface is clean and responsive, and the file management system makes collaboration seamless. Although I have noticed occasional performance issues with larger projects, they don’t affect the overall reliability of the tool. Crowdin has improved both the quality and efficiency of my translation workflow. Pros What I liked most about Crowdin is how smooth the learning curve was. Even as a new user, I quickly understood how to manage projects thanks to the intuitive user interface. The text and file management tools are very efficient, making it easy to handle large translation projects, and I also appreciate the collaborative features that help maintain consistency across the team. Cons What I liked least is that sometimes, when dealing with very large projects, the platform experiences minor bugs and issues, such as slower loading times. In addition, while the setup for certain integrations is powerful, it can feel a bit complex for first-time users Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Owner of ELEKTRO CODX Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "The best platform for community translations" September 30, 2025 5.0 I've been using Crowdin since 2020 to translate projects and I've never had any issues at all. It supports 2FA to make my account secure and the notifications work well to know when there are new strings to translate. Pros Its interface is user-friendly and easy to use, it offers several features to offer the best experience. It allows you to separate strings in different subprojects (folders). Cons Sometimes the automated suggestions from Crowdin or Google are not accurate enough and users still use those suggestions. Review Source MB Muhammad B. Powerful Localization Platform for Collaborative Teams Computer Software Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Powerful Localization Platform for Collaborative Teams" January 28, 2026 5.0 Overall, my experience with Crowdin has been very positive. It’s a powerful and reliable platform for localization projects, especially for teams working on multilingual products. Once you get used to the workflow, it significantly improves productivity and collaboration between translators, developers, and project managers. Pros Crowdin makes localization and translation management very efficient. I really like the intuitive interface, real-time collaboration features, and how easy it is to manage multiple languages in one place. Integrations with other tools and version control systems are also very helpful and save a lot of time. Cons Some advanced features take time to fully understand, especially for new users. The pricing can also feel a bit high for small teams or individual users, and the interface may feel slightly overwhelming at first due to the number of options available. Review Source OK Osyruu K.

Consultant Management Consulting Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Organize Large User Base" October 6, 2025 5.0 Mobile interaction aside, Crowdin is a great package for keep software projects with large user bases organized. Pros Crowdin is great for organizing contributing users for big projects, like app translations. You can easily change a user’s role quickly. The notifications and user interface also allow for quick review and response to user questions. Cons However, there is no mobile app nor is the website designed for mobile. I most often use Crowdin on my mobile phone. So, at times, I have to zoom in and out, which detracts from Crowdin’s ease of use. Review Source DC David C.

Pros Easy to use and very intuitive. Crowdin is an online resource that allows you to work from anywhere not making you dependent on a specific location or machine. Cons There is still, as far as I know, no good spellchecking option for European Portuguese included, the addition of this feature would increase it's value, specifically for the Portuguese market.

September 30, 2025 5.0 the overall experience with Crowdin is highly positive for organizations that prioritize automation, integration with a development pipeline, and sophisticated translation tools... Pros the strong combination of automation via integrations, powerful contextual translation tools (In-Context Editor, screenshots), and increasingly sophisticated AI capabilities... Cons the most common areas of dissatisfaction vary around the complexity of the user interface (especially for non-technical users), and the occasional glitchiness or unexpected behavior in the import/export or synchronization processes.

Pros Simple, intuitive and well structured interface. The chat function is very useful to request clarifications from the administrators of the application to be translated. Also interesting is the addition of Google Translate for faster translations. Cons Every now and then emails arrive with strings to translate but then these are not there and therefore it wastes time. Review Source TM Toni M.

While I like to help to contribute to an open source chess site, all the other systems and functions of Crowdin like Tasks, TM,MT, Glossaries are a waste of time. Pros I like the most the automatic mail notifications when new translations are available. This way I never miss any new translations. Cons All the eco-system around the core product, like AI translations (that never work), Context pages, all unnecessary at least for my use case. Review Source Andrea C.

Pros Crowdin is a perfect service, offering developers cooperate with volunteers, that means developers can more focus on the development.

Developer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Best in class for crowd translations!" September 10, 2024 5.0 Crowdin is a high quality product with many good and helpful features. We used it in a former project as crowd translation tool for our app and it worked very well. At the moment our main project only has very basic requirements and we don't need many features anymore. Pros 1\. It's easy to invite colleagues, customers and professional translaters to translate content. 2. Using the crowdin cli tool to upload and update translations in our code base. 3. Create branches which reflect code branches. Cons Over the years and the additional features crowdin got more and more expensive although we have a very basic workflow: 1 private translator, just translation of every string in 1-2 languages, upload and download per cli tool. Currently we are thinking about not using Crowdin anymore - although we like Crowdin very much. Review Source VMR Vania Marisa R.

As a freelancer, it helps to get the terms and revision updated. Pros The easy way to work as a translator. The automatic suggestions and easy review of terms. The automatic update in translations for coherence. Cons There is nothing that goes wrong when I'm using it. The work flows. But in the translation case, it could be approved automatically by the software and not manually. Review Source PS Philip S.

It offers what I need most of the time, and very seldom do I feel that I need more features. The UI/UX is great, and project management is fantastic. Pros Crowdin is an incredibly smooth and user friendly tool that streamlines the translation process for freelance translators. Cons Due to its user friendly nature, it might lack some of the more advanced features that more advanced CAT tools have. Also, the report feature is lacking functionality, which means it becomes rather cumbersome to get statistics for invoice creation. Review Source BM Blessed M.

Review Source AP Anthony P. Senior Translator Translation and Localization Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Almost there" August 20, 2024 4.0 Overall the editor panel is smooth and without latency Pros The side-to-side panel and bulk approval button, they are helpful when you have over 100 pages of strings to review. Cons 1\. It needs you to remove the approved string before you can update it, otherwise the system will overwrite the updated string with the approved one, even when the updated ones are saved and double-approved. 2. The bulk change function should keep the modifications in a new filter/section instead of keeping them with those to be reviewed/approved, the reason is that bulk-changed strings should be assumed as "checked/examined", keeping those together will cause confusion if no comment is left by the reviewer to single out those changed strings, but to single out overly repetitive strings, one also must click and open that string in a new page, imagine there are over 10 strings to be bulk-changed, you get the idea.

Having to pay an expensive subscription just to keep our translations on the server is not very exciting. Except for this, is a great product. Pros It is supported by a large community, it has a intuitive UI and tools to integrate the workflow with github.
