The integration is very easy implemented with email client or web browser, you can translate emails, web pages and quality of translation is on top. Regarding document translation it gives you only 3 formats of documents (.pdf, .pptx and .docx), in my experience this type of documents are sufficient, however it would be better to see other type of documents as well. Also, you have to convert your old document in Word or PowerPoint to latest version, otherwise program won't accept it.

Smartling is great for a company or team that doesn't have the resources to translate multiple properties in-house. It automates the process and makes it much more manageable. If you have a large website that is managed by one local team and not a global team, Smartling is for you.

Cons
  • Limits of the free version: 5MB and 5000 words. No problems with the paid version
  • Because it is the only software that translates documents while preserving the images and design of the original, it sometimes makes errors in output with aesthetically complex layouts

  • We look forward to seeing more in-depth reporting and user management features specifically for translation agencies that handle multiple client accounts

DeepL thanks to AI produces results identical to Google Translate or in many cases much better and closer to reality.This helps a lot, especially when translating and reading long documents (instead of testing our patience to understand the translated meaning of technical documents).In addition, features such as translating text to images via ocr is amazing and very fast in both input (keyboard shortcut) and output.

We prefer Smartling as an online CAT tool because it is easy to use and we can onboard new translators quickly without lengthy training cycles. Our customers like Smartling because they can manage all of their translation needs (website, apps, business documents) through one single platform, share style guides, glossaries and translation memory and save on translation cost over time.

  • I am one step ahead of Italian competitors by training abroad
  • I started parallel businesses to my business by comparing myself to foreign realities
  • I easily communicate with the support of the foreign software I use for work and with entrepreneurs all over the world, before I would have avoided so as not to lose temp
