    Cloudwords
    Cloudwords is well suited for getting translations of specific docs from users who are from a different language speaking area. in the past, we've tried to translate on our own, but it is time consuming and not always accurate, so cloudwords save us time and money with translation services

    • Performance has been an issue initially. Sometimes it takes longer for some things to load and it can be frustrating.
    • UI seems a bit confusing at times. For example, I don't understand why I need to have a translator's profile when I'm clearly a project manager.
    • Their support team can take a long time to reply which often crucial for urgent projects.
