Pros	Smartcat Segmentation. Translation overall quality. Customer service. Pricing. Incentivized Andre Dumoulin Translator Read full review	translate5 No answers on this topic
Cons	Smartcat 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.

Alternatives Considered	Smartcat I regularly use the two other products and appreciate Smartcat including more features than MateCat, such as storing of projects and contact with agencies and clients. Incentivized Andre Dumoulin Translator Read full review	translate5 No answers on this topic
