It once changed the formatting of the HTML tables in our markdown files. Now the bug has been fixed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We use Crowdin mostly for Shopify localization projects as well as other integrations. They have a ton of integrations, the pricing is reasonable (especially compared to other translation management systems) and they have a phenomenal support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The interface can be a bit complex if you are not used to it, so it requires a bit of a learning curve. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Crowdin has a pretty easy user interface that is intuitive. The way it is structured makes it easy to translate fast and efficient. The fact that you can make your own glossary and addspecific terminology to your prjoect is very helpfull as well. TMs work pretty fast, too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Big chunks of text in one string seem to be a bit of a problem and have hard times loading. It also depends a bit on the browser you use. Firefox seems to be more stable than Chrome for example.

It would be great if there would be the option to find untranslated text strings while they stay in their respective location in a document. You can sort by 'untranslated' but sometimes it is necessary to have the 'surrounding' strings in order to have the context. If you have a document with several pages it would be nice to have an indicator on which page the untranslated text is at least. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Crowdin has been an indispensable tool for my translation and revision endeavors. It has significantly streamlined my workflow, allowing me to efficiently translate and review texts. Moreover, it has afforded me the opportunity to volunteer as a translator and reviewer for a major German Minecraft server known as GommeHD. In this role, I've been actively engaged in translating from German/English to Brazilian Portuguese. The collaborative nature of Crowdin, coupled with its intuitive interface, has made this translation journey for GommeHD exceptionally productive and rewarding. I am thrilled to contribute to enhancing the gaming experience for the Brazilian Portuguese-speaking community within the Minecraft realm on this renowned server.

The Crowdin presents a challenge when dealing with "dead" or inactive projects. Since it's a collaborative platform, inactive projects can lose momentum and participation over time. Without ongoing engagement and activity, maintaining momentum and ensuring completion can be difficult. Communication and efforts from all contributors are crucial to keep the project alive and progressing. It's essential to establish clear guidelines and maintain team engagement to overcome this particular challenge in using Crowdin effectively for projects that might face periods of inactivity.

I love how Crowdin serves as an efficient translation and localization hub for our team. It effectively addresses the challenge of managing translations across 21 languages by centralizing everything in one place. The translation feature has been revolutionary, particularly because it allows translators to preview their translations in the actual interface, helping them manage content more effectively. The in-context tool is incredibly valuable as it removes the guesswork around text length variations and contextual meaning, which directly resolves one of our biggest challenges, that of UI layout breaks caused by varying text lengths across languages. This capability significantly enhances our workflow and ensures accuracy and efficiency in our localization process. Overall, these features have been critical in managing our platform's multilingual content, making Crowdin an indispensable tool for our operations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The initial setup for Crowdin was more complex than anticipated. Getting the JavaScript integration to work correctly with our Next.js application required careful coordination with our build process. Additionally, the documentation could be more specific about server-side rendering (SSR) considerations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Crowdin is a powerful TMS system. It's easy to use. It has lots of integrations, and it's easy to setup the system for the first time. We found the integrations very straight forward and can be up and running super fast. I also like that Crowdin support is very responsive and customer focused. It's been a great experience being a Crowdin customer. I highly recommend it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I can't think of anything regarding Crowdin that is not positive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Since my last review, Crowdin has remained very stable and continues to fit smoothly into our daily workflow. We’ve started relying more on translation memory, glossaries, and integrations, which makes it much easier to keep product copy and marketing content in sync. The overall speed of the platform and the clarity of the translation editor help our translators work faster while keeping quality high. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Overall, our experience is still very positive, but there are a few areas that could be even better. Reporting and analytics could be more flexible, with easier ways to build custom dashboards and export insights for stakeholders. Some advanced settings are a bit hidden, so a slightly more streamlined admin interface and clearer onboarding tips for new users would help. Transparent pricing and controls around machine translation usage would also be appreciated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find Crowdin incredibly easy to use, which is essential for my role as a UX Writer. Its user-friendly design facilitates quick access and efficient navigation, saving time and reducing friction when reviewing strings on our platform and app. The search tool is particularly impressive, providing me with powerful capabilities to swiftly find and analyze relevant text strings, which enhances my workflow significantly.

I am used to the way it organizes and displays information, so you can have everything you need at hand at any time. You can easily show/hide panels and really eliminate distractions if you want to focus on translating/proofreading or bring up reference material for research.

I also like how they are open and available for feedback and have implemented many of the changes I've suggested over the years, which has made my work much more practical. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes, changes are implemented in the web and, which can create confusion due to a lack of transparency or communication with users. A simple in-app notification would suffice to make these changes more transparent.

I'm also personally not a fan of the contextual menu (the light bulb when you double click a word in a string), but I understand there might have been pros and cons that led to this implementation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
