### "Mostly very decent"

August 16, 2023

4.0

I'm merely using it as an end-user and I do feel like it benefits me to easily contribute to translations and also to keep things tight with team management.

Pros

Team management is good. Free-for-all, like on Weblate, doesn't always lead to better translation. In fact, it usually leads to worse translations. So having teams is important. I also like the keyboard shortcuts, translation editing capabilities and the easy-to-reach-and-use comment section in the editor.

Cons

The site and editor are a bit difficult to navigate at times, requiring a few too many clicks. And a few features are a bit hidden out of view. Furthermore, the translation editor needs a better untranslated filter, maybe one that solely focuses on the untranslated strings instead of having it blend it with the already translated strings.

### "Convenient platform for multilingual projects"

November 1, 2023

5.0

I like Crowdin multifunctionality, it's very easy to use, and it's interface is very helpful to have everything near at hand

Pros

Centralized tool for bigger teams to work on the same project, easy to use, clear interface, TM availability, search option

Cons

Poor TM editing options, search is not perfect - sometimes it's more effective to use "search in file" rather that search TM

### "Translations for Lichess app"

February 29, 2024

5.0

Excellent experience. Very fluent, lean and user-friendly for translators.

Pros

I regularly contribute to the Lichess project on Crowdin as a translator for the Dutch language. (I play chess on Lichess as well.) Also as a government translation team manager, I am always curious to explore translation management solutions. I found Crowdin very efficient and user-friendly.

Cons

Not sure whether there is a so-called concordance function (looking up how a term or sentence was translated before, by myself or other translators) ...

September 7, 2023

4.0

Pros

There are many, machine translation, reviewing, editing filtering strings etc (this list goes long), also, it has a better UI on desktops as well as mobiles

Cons

### "A good product to get both CES and CSAT"

September 6, 2023

5.0

Pros

Easy to set up new flows, as we evaluate several processes separately and start it based on events, it is very important for us that we don't spend too much time implementing the evaluation of the new processes using CES.

Cons

Not many. Sometimes could be easier to understand some configurations, but when you have learned it, it works.

### "Very useful translation helper."

June 18, 2022

5.0

Pros

It makes crowdfunded translations extremely easy. As an open source software developer, this made it extremely easy to integrate by having automatic GitHub integration and syncing, and making it easy to switch from JSON-based translations to this website.

Cons

Trying to add existing translations of other languages was a bumpy ride, the documentation on that aspect was a bit lacking at the time (specially because it was a pretty complex JSON file). Eventually it was done, and it wasn't too hard either.

### "The tool for any multilingual project"

August 9, 2023

5.0

For a translation platform that combines user-friendliness, collaboration, powerful features, and exceptional support, look no further than Crowdin.

Pros

For the long time that I used Crowdin, either to help translate and approve countless strings on projects such as Minecraft, GitLab or Discord, I never had a major complaint over the years, since 2017. Crowdin takes the cake with its user-friendly interface, robust features, and exceptional support. I will indeed reinforce the whole website interface, the layout is intuitive and clean, making it easy for both project managers and translators to navigate without any steep learning curve.

Cons

So far, I have no negative opinion about the platform.

### "Excellent product, easy to use"

August 25, 2023

5.0

Pros

Crowdin is so easy to use, that I can concentrate on the translation work at hand, without having to find out how things work first. I never needed to read the manual.

Cons

I can't name any shortcomings, after over 5 years of regular use.

### "Crowdin review"

August 10, 2023

5.0

I used Crowdin a lot for more than 10 years. Is our Rosetta Stone of productivity; very helpful!

Pros

Easy to use. Free for Open Source projects.

Cons

Some features such as filtering could improve.

Transifex sometimes crash the browser cache (or something like that) and you lose all your unsaved data. This trouble never happened using Crowdin.

### "Great for open source projects"

October 6, 2023

5.0

Pros

We use crowdin for the translations of our geocaching open source app GCWizard. Easy too use for the community and for our programmers also with the up- and download.

Cons

Proofreading has an issue with page switching, but it's not a big deal. Everything else is fine for us.

### "Ease of use for sometimes users"

September 1, 2023

5.0

Pros

It is great how someone who jumps in for the first time as a volunteer can start translating directly. Also the automatic suggestions are great!

Cons

It would be nice if there was a feature to auto-update the working list of untranslated strings in the background so that the flow is unimpeded.

### "Crowdin user who is not a highly IT expert"

November 1, 2023

4.0

It has been exclusively working with italki. Very recently, I have been added to the Crowdin project itself, however, I haven't figured out yet how this project operates and the pay rate. This happened just a few days ago.

Pros

It is a great platform for translation projects.

Cons

Some of the other posted projects do not respond to my request for info and I can't figure out if Crowdin itself has some sort of support in these cases. Ex Khan Academy project).

### "All-in-one translation platform"

August 8, 2023

4.0

Pros

Crowdin gives multiple machine translation options, including a free in-house one. It is one of the few services that offers free plans for open-source projects and it gives almost all a user wants when editing and adding translations: keyboard shortcuts, good editor UI, ...

Cons

The editor sometimes is a bit slow when saving translations and auto-translated strings are not always responsive.

September 14, 2023

5.0

I have worked with Crowdin from several angles, both as a translator and as a project administrator.

Pros

For me, Crowdin is the most convenient service for product localization. I have never needed any more functionality, everything I needed for my work is already available in this service.

Cons

I like everything about this product. I don't have any comments.

### "One of the best translation tools"

January 10, 2024

5.0

I'm translator of an open-source project and I also propose, implement and use this tool in multiple companies I work for.

Pros

All my translators can work with this tool without asking many questions. Support for many formats.

Cons

Sometimes slower UI for larger projects.

It is easier to offload multiple tasks from project maintainers to translators and automation.

The customer support is amazing and the product team always listens to the product improvement feedback. They already implemented some of our feature based suggestions.

### "Best working software"

May 26, 2022

4.0

Pros

Great built-in productivity tool that makes it easy to work on assigned channels. The user interface is quite simple and is not overloaded with features like in some other software of this type.

Cons

In my experience of using work tools, few projects include glossaries. I don't know if this is a customer choice. But the terms that appear in the glossary should be easier to insert simply by typing the first letters of the word.

### "Great tool for managing our localization resources!"

April 22, 2022

5.0

I've been using the product for years, and will continue to do so! Everything from the integrations with codebases, to the UI for doing translations is great!

Pros

I love the integration with Github actions. Having our translation source files sync with our code repos is amazing!

Cons

The process of adding screenshots for context is pretty good, but it would be nice to be able to easily add screenshots from the translation UI, or include screenshots as part of the comments section during the translation process.

### "One of the most efficient translation tool"

February 8, 2024

5.0

I'm pretty happy with Crowdin. Although the free plan is a bit limited, the platform is well-thought-out and works very well. It allows you to be efficient without too much configuration, whether you're an individual or a large company.

Pros

An efficient, community-friendly tool that allows any team to get helped to translate any projects. The UI is great and efficient !

Cons

The cost might be high, and the free plan is very limited. Some documentation is missing on some points, such as integrations

Reason for choosing Crowdin

Crowdin is a well-known and reliable platform that had all the features we needed. We didn't have to look anywhere else.
