Lokalise vs. TransPerfect GlobalLink

Lokalise is a great product if you're looking to translate your software in multiple languages. It optimizes every process and gives you a large variety of features and integrations to ensure high translation quality, and efficient workflows for everyone involved

It's effective for translating technical content, but there are faster, more intuitive, and visually cleaner tools that are out there. It's a bit clunky and requires too many different steps for different things in my opinion.

• Stores information
• Can do handle than 1 project

• The glossary is good to work with

Incentivized

• machine translation options don't use the glossary terminology
• the WordPress integration isn't really usable in the current state
• email notifications settings are not detailed enough

• Slow, bugs and errors aren't uncommon, logs you out suddenly, sometimes doesn't save what you've worked on even if you commit/save strings
• No shortcut-available, you have to mouse-click a lot, makes work less intuitive
• Confusing interface
• Not sure if it's the tasks' setup once they're sent to linguists, but sometimes almost exact matches don't show up automatically. You have to search bits of a sentence to hopefully find an exact match that had been translated before, but for some reason didn't show as a suggestion. That takes up a huge amount of time.

We were actually intended to get Localize instead of Lokalise, the naming is very confusing.

It's the slowest of them all and the design/interface/usability is a little 1990. I also don't feel as confident that it will save my work to the cloud like the others do, because it has logged me out suddenly and didn't save the last strings I had worked on, even if I had committed them and saved them.

• Positive: Helps with content consistency (using the same terms/phrase matches throughout the years)
• Positive: Good glossary building for repeated, technical terms and names
• Negative: I feel it slows work down rather than speeding it up, which is the idea behind using a CAT tool
