"Simplifying Exam Translation and Expanding Certification Accessibility"

5/5

What do you like best about Localize?

What I appreciate most about Localize is how it simplifies the process of managing translations and multilingual content. The platform is user-friendly, makes it easy to maintain consistency across languages, and allows us to provide a more accessible experience for our learners without creating unnecessary administrative work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Localize?

While Localize offers a lot of valuable functionality, there is a learning curve when it comes to understanding some of the more advanced features and settings. Certain processes could be more intuitive, and additional guidance or clearer documentation would make it easier to troubleshoot issues and fully utilize the platform's capabilities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Localize solving and how is that benefiting you?

Localize has helped us address language barriers within our certification program by supporting the translation of our Level 1 certification exams into Spanish. This has allowed us to expand access to certification opportunities for Spanish-speaking RV technicians while reducing the time and resources required to manage the translation process. It has also provided us with a foundation to explore additional multilingual offerings in the future. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Responsive Support and Robust Admin Interface with Instant Publishing"

5/5

What do you like best about Localize?

Localize has been really great to work with. They are responsive, and have worked to understand many of the complexities our company, Ergotron, has brought to them. I like their administrative interface for its robust functionality and the fact that published changes are instantaneous. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Localize?

Sometimes I've found that the requirement of content approval workflow can get in the way of moving quickly when modifying text, and I've found some errors in auto-translations that are unrelated to language but instead related to placement of HTML tags surrounding specific phrases, but it is less common to come across that issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Localize solving and how is that benefiting you?

Before Localize, we were having to copy/paste content from spreadsheets that have source/target languages into our content management system. It was very tedious work, and required a lot of manual entry and corrections. Utilizing Localize's instant text replacement technology with auto-translated + reviewed content has revolutionized our process with a much more manageable workflow Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Thank you for such a detailed review and for sharing your experience with Localize!

We're happy to hear that features like instant publishing, our admin interface, and our support team have helped simplify what was once a very manual localization process. Replacing spreadsheets and repetitive copy-and-paste work with a more centralized workflow is exactly the kind of outcome we hope to deliver, so it's great to hear that's been your experience.

We also appreciate your thoughtful suggestions around approval workflows and HTML tag handling. Hearing where customers run into friction helps us continue improving the platform for everyone, and we'll be sure your feedback is sharing with our product team.

Thank you for choosing Localize and for trusting us with such an important part of your multilingual content strategy! We're grateful to have the opportunity to work with you and your team.

"No-Code Multilingual Setup with Easy On-Page Editing and Instant Content Publishing"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Localize?

Localize made it very easy to develop a multilingual application due to its approx no code setup, automatic content detection, on-page editing which is very helpful for developers to deliver multilingual applications without putting too much effort on this part of the application. Also, the best part of Localize is, without any new release, you can publish your content text. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Localize?

It was an initial problem when we didn't know how to use Localize, but as we set it up and according to our framework, we created hooks, components, etc. It's difficult to find dislikes now. Sometimes AI-translated text/phrase is not what suits our needs, but we can change it easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Localize solving and how is that benefiting you?

I will share some points:

1. No translation files required in repository/code.

2. Phrase/text auto-detected.

3. No need to provide a new release if any change in phrase/text.

4. Product/Marketing team has no dependency on the Engineering team for localized content.

5. Suggested translation in specific language. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simplifies Localization with Seamless Integration and Time-Saving Automation"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Localize?

What I like is that it simplifies localization with a UI that helps the engineering team identify which text needs localization, which also makes it cost-effective because it reduces manual translation management. It automates content synchronization, saving time for developers.

What I like best is the strong supporting/onboarding documentation, which resulted in a seamless integration with the frontend and helps teams release multilingual applications faster with minimal user input.

I haven’t seen any performance impact across the different locales supported on the platform.

I’m not sure whether the AI feature is used, but it does automatically identify new or updated content and route it through the translation process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Localize?

Localize works well overall, but enhancements to reporting, and cost transparency would further improve the experience.

As an lead i always asked about $ invested while performing localization for an give fucntionality but it was not visible upfront. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We really appreciate the detailed feedback. It's great to hear that Localize has helped your engineering team spend less time managing translations and more time building. Hearing that the documentation, automation, and synchronization features made implementation straightforward is exactly what we hope for. We appreciate your candid feedback around reporting and cost transparency, and we'll make sure it's shared with the team. Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience with Localize!

"Great customization and value for complex software products"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Localize?

There are a lot of customisation options. They offer a variety of AI models that we can choose from to ensure that we have the option to select the right model for the right language. Additionally, their marketplace to help with language checks of machine translated phrases and words is also very convenient to access and maintain from within the platform.

The platform has a good value for money since implementation for ~15 languages is covered as part of the platform and covers most of our use cases. Adding more languages is also not very expensive and can be done easily.

It's easy to implement and their team is quite helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Localize?

The UI/UX could use a lot of work. As a Product Manager who isn’t involved in the implementation but wants to troubleshoot or quickly understand what’s going on, I find it quite challenging to navigate the platform and use it effectively.

While the customisation options do help, if Localise isn’t implemented correctly it becomes very difficult to troubleshoot, maintain, and keep things consistent. For example, some phrases that you don’t want translated can end up being translated anyway.

The reporting module also needs improvement. It’s hard to pull a clear list of phrases that were provided as strings from the platform versus strings that were automatically translated.

Email integration with notifications can get overwhelming too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Localize solving and how is that benefiting you?

Localize is helping us meet the need to translate our platform for native-language users. Because our product includes multiple pages, terms, toast messages, and more across 20+ languages, doing this entirely in-house would require a massive engineering effort that we simply wouldn’t be able to allocate. Localize has significantly reduced that workload by providing both the translations and a platform for us to manage everything consistently across languages. As a result, we only needed one engineer to integrate with Localize, rather than having multiple people working on it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share this! It's great to hear how so many different parts of Localize are helping your team, especially the On-Page Editor and the ability to keep track of what's already been translated as your work and scale across projects and languages. We also appreciate your feedback on AI suggestions. Context and company-specific terminology can make a big difference in translation quality, and it's an area we care a lot about. We'll make sure this feedback is communicated to the Localize team. Thank you for trusting Localize with your localization initiatives and again for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review!

"Localize Is Second to None for UI Localization"

5/5

What do you like best about Localize?

Localize is second to none to localizing/translating software UI. It offers many features to help you translate seamlessly. The on page editor is a great feature to help you see how your translation is going to look like. Also, the ability to find phrases or words is really helpful.

It also tracks and logs the changes and updates, so you can see if you or any colleague already translated phrases, words or text. On top of that you have trackers to see your progress.

Localize eases the work by dividing it into separate projects, so phrases and context are kept.

Their AI suggestion is also very good Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Localize?

Sometimes the suggested translation, based on AI is not accurate to the client's context and vocabulary, which is understandable. It wouldnt be escalable to have several "industry vocabularies" Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Thank you for your thoughtful review! We love hearing that the On-Page Editor, phrase search, change tracking, and project organization are making it easier for your team to manage UI localization across multiple languages. We also appreciate your feedback on AI suggestions. Context and company-specific terminology can make a big difference in translation quality, which is an area we care a lot about. This feedback is very valuable and will be sure to share this with our team. Thank you again for taking the time to leave a review, and for trusting Localize to power your localization initiative!

"Localize Makes Multilingual Support Easy—even for Dynamic Content"

5/5

What do you like best about Localize?

we are utilizing the tool to provide multi-lingual support accross our web app. it is extremely helpful as we deal with clients accross major metro areas in North America and abroad. So, providing serivces to customers in their own language is a must. Localize also provides us the ability to go a step beyond and translate dynamic field content that otherwise coudl not be translated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Localize?

the only downside was the recent (last year) price plan change. that forced us to pay more for less.. we weren't the happiest about that move, and unfortunately, we are required to pursue large custom pricing increases if we bring on any more clients requesting this service.

Thank you for sharing your experience with Localize! Managing several web applications across eight languages is a lot to keep up with, so we're happy to hear that Localize is helping take some of that work off your team's plate. We're especially glad to hear that your colleagues can get involved in the translation process without making things more complicated. We appreciate your feedback about identifying where individual strings originate. Having the right context is important, so it's helpful to hear where we could make that process easier.

"Easy Translation Tool to Use"

4/5

What do you like best about Localize?

You add one JavaScript snippet to the site, much like a Google Analytics tag. After that, non-technical teams can manage translations from a dashboard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Localize?

The dashboard can be slow at times, especially the visual editor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless String Collection and Team-Friendly Translations"

4/5

What do you like best about Localize?

It takes away the effort of collecting and translating strings in large web applications, allows colleagues to help with the translation process Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Localize?

Your translation workflow becomes tied to their platform/dashboard.

editing system to improve stability, responsiveness, and editing workflows.

Added AI-powered translation suggestions and quality scoring to reduce poor machine translations and inconsistent wording.
