I love how quickly you can get Localize up and running. I was able to get it implemented on a client's site within minutes. Although I initially felt overwhelmed about this client request, Localize solved my problem with their amazing solution.
Good to be able to use machine translation with real people if I choose.
The interface was simple enough to use, was able to find things as needed.
localize is super easy to implement and with a little bit of javascript, it can even be attached to different domains so each domain serves its corresponding language. I use it for a number of websites and it has never failed me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Nothing—Localize not only accomplished my goals but also made my clients extremely pleased with something that could potentially be a complicated task.
The only problem is that translations are connected to precise paragraphs of text, change one letter and you have to go into the system to reconnect the previous translation, even changing a letter in a capital letter will cause a translation to disappear online, without a warning.

Super easy for everyone to contribute. Even non-technical team members can help by adding screenshots, keys, translations, or placing orders. Localize was a recommendation by another mobile start-up. We tested along the process 6 different players on the market and localize was by far the best solution.
Thanks to localize we can move much faster to make our app available in several different languages around the globe.
Due to the localize api we were able to implement it into our backend - it's working seamless at the moment and even feels for a non-technical person like plug & play.
Other solutions very often don't have the perfect integration for your individual product or even work with text files. So whenever we want to release new content or a new localization to our app it just takes us at most 2 days. We always choose bilingual translators and created internal additional feedback loops with consultants, friends and families. It's just perfect for us! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sometimes saved linked screenshots disappear or it takes some time to load, but I would say that's all Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
1> Very easy user interface, no guidance required.
2> Documentation is clear.
2> Just include the library and all phrases will get uploaded in localize account for translations.
3> Providing machine translations.
4> I really felt amazing with latest update of providing localization support for numbers and images. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
This is not exactly as dislike, but kind of improvement.
We have added 'notransalte' in N number of similar places in our web application.
If if can be given at css class level or at element level would really help and reduce effort of adding 'notranslate' at many places.
This also makes sure we have not missed adding 'notranslate' for any element Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The user interface is very easy to use and the translations can easily be updated at any time. When you implement changes, they take effect immediately which is awesome! There are tons of languages to choose from as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The pricing is pretty high considering there are some free services out there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Localize has an easy to use interface and has enabled our team to translate our platform with minimal development or administrative effort. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The only feature that caused any (very minimal) trouble for our team is the default to enable automatic archiving. We have an introductory assessment that is only periodically revisited, so the phrases were quickly moved to the archive and therefore did not show as immediately translated upon the next identification. Disabling the automatic archiving resolved this for us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The top two features I appreciate are the ease with which to change languages and also their admin portal Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I don't dislike really anything. I would love to be able to add additional languages without paying more but that's really all Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Issues with intercom and other tools when it translates too many things we didn't ask it to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
LocalizeJs (LJS) was very easy and fast to set-up and start showing results in target language. All the phrases/strings from your apps go to the same tool and are easy to see and manage. The tech support/help is very responsive and helpful to deal with all kinds of problems you might have. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Since LJS pushes all the strings from your Webapps to their tool, it is little bit tedious to find all the data that must not be send to the tool, e.g. confidential user information etc. You still have to find a way to localize possible 3rd party components on your Webapp, because at least we were not able to translate them properly with LJS. The tool is not geared towards deployment flow, where you have DEV, QA, Staging and Production environments and you have to move phrases/strings between different environments.

We can easily manage the translation of our pages, super simple! Really pleased we found a tool that works so well. Users browsing in another country will automatically see the correct translation for them which is great. The support team is great too! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Haven't quite figures out the how to manage staging sites. e.g. adding the translations to a page before it gets released. There's probably a way to do this! Also haven't managed to translate pop-ups on pages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The API and documentation is very easy to use. We were able to get it set up quickly. Translations are pretty accurate and we are able to have people go in and update strings with no problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
When you need to expand to offer more languages the pricing can get pretty expensive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The SDK is super easy to use with clear documentation on Frontend and Backend integrations with little filler material for senior engineers. There's also plenty of tutorials and examples for beginners as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The starter plans are affordable for a small startup to expand to a few different markets. But if you need to expand globally, the pricing goes up quite a bit which only makes sense for larger companies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Translation of phrases
Easy implementation
Easy to user user interface
Many languages to choose from Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Reactive translations, requires a user to navigate the pages and request a language with the tool before translation will be requested Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's very easy to keep translations up-to-date on our website and we don't need to have multiple copies of each page to store translated content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The service isn't fully automated, so we still have to manually approve phrases for translation every few days. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The ability to automatically translate text instantly, refine it or override it yourself, or upgrade the machine translating to business quality language in such a simple interface is invaluable to us as we try to grow internationally.
We've found Localize to be really flexible in terms of how we integrate with our website and how we use it amongst our staff. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We haven't hit any issues so far and implementation was well documented. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
1 . Quick and easy access
2 . User friendly UI
3 . Translations in the given language handled by the team
4 . hassle free solution Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Bit expensive as price can be reduced for the projects that have multiple languages . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The best thing about Localize is that there's little to no tech required to get a site translated into another language whereas other solutions in this space require deeper integration and custom code to translate text strings on a webpage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
While there's little technical implementation, it means there's some sacrifices you have to make from a consumer experience standpoint. More specifically, because this is a java script solution, the page does render as it would normally for a quick moment and then the translations start appearing. Depending on how quickly the JS loads, it might be noticeable to the user that we're swapping around content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We needed to professionally translate our microsite into multiple languages to suit our global audience. Localise ticked all the boxes, especially with the human translation offering and the WP integration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The lingo used. As a new user and someone who uses SaaS apps all the time, the word 'Phrases' didn't resonate with me and felt like it over complicated a very straight forward process: I want to translate my whole website into x language. There is also the added complication of having to buy credits too, but thats no biggy. I logged a couple tickets in the 'translate my website via a human' process in the end. It shouldn't be this jagged. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like the easy to use platform on the cloud that allows me to manage a team of translators around the world who can make changes on the fly. As soon as we launch a new page or new copy, they are standing by to translate and get it done. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It does add a bit of lag to the copy depending on your customers connection Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
