What I like most is how it brings different translation resources together in one workflow. Translation memories, term bases, LiveDocs, concordance search, and predictive typing can make the translation process faster and more consistent. I also appreciate the clear project management features and the possibility of reusing resources across different projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One aspect I find challenging is that memoQ can take some time to learn, especially for new users who are not familiar with CAT tools. The number of settings, resources, and project options can initially feel overwhelming. A more guided onboarding experience, with clearer explanations and practical examples for beginners, could make the learning process easier and more intuitive.

Cost-benefit is better than other mainstream competitors. Does not crash nearly as often as other desktop CATs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are some features I'd like to have:

*Dark mode

*Ability to update a local TM at the same time as an online TM

*Ability to leverage my TMs as a sort of MT instead of just using them for autosuggest

*Ability to select text from several segments at the same time, e.g., for character count in Excel (sometimes they are separate but I do not have the permission to join them and I have separate character-restriction instructions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The work flow is ideal; it's the best CAT tool I have seen in 30 years as a freelancer. It also works very good with files from other CAT tools, such as Studio. I love it when my clients use memoQ too, via memoQ server. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

You have to pause OneDrive, else your memoQ projects can get corrupted. They should change that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best part of memoQ is its translation memory and terminology management. It saves time, ensures consistency across projects, and the built-in quality assurance tools help catch errors before delivery. The interface is intuitive and supports a wide range of file formats.

The main downside is the learning curve for new users. Some features are not very intuitive at first, and the interface could be more modern and easier to navigate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The management of translation memories helps to simplify translations. Additionally, the use of LiveDocs complements the scope of the development of my work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Practically all its functionalities fit into the average translator, but they could improve in the explanations of some options. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Although it is not without pains, it is affordable and not difficult to use, especially because I have not had the time to go through their self-pace training, and I am able to use the tool to do some school work for my translation studies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It does not have a web version that would synch with the desktop application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that memoQ easily helps segment out documents for translation and supports a wide range of file formats. It's also compatible with most other TMS software, so I can use it within external tools or directly in memoQ. There are many features in the tool that don't exist in some other CAT tools, and I find the quality errors and warnings system works well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The 'web' version is a mess and has been for about 8 years. I'm not sure why it's not as comprehensive as the desktop version, creating a lot of problems for project managers. Especially because memoQ doesn't support Mac iOS, project managers that use Macs are limited in their capabilities to what they can reach via the web app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

*Multilingual delimited text filter option*

It's the most costumizable and refined option I found in standalone CAT tools, allowing to import only the columns in scope, context, character limits, context from multiple sheets of the same file. Essential for video games localizers, as multilingual spreadsheets are the standard format of the industry.

*Multilingual Termbase with stemming*

The termbase works beautifully with the QA function to spot terminological inconsistencies. Aslo, the stemming prevents a great deal of false positives. Nice to be able to build single a term base in all my three languages.

*Longevity*

My old MemoQ 9 still works as a charm! By the way, I want to thank warmly Viktor Mochnács and Santiago de Miguel from Sales for helping me retrieve my serial number after my computer died on me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Well, the newsubscription plan is not very budget friendly for freelance translators that have to work with different clients on different CAT Tools. I would suggest to reintroduce a buy-once option without all the bells and whistles for translators seeking just a reliable CAT tool to fall back on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The basic features of memoQ are quick and easy to learn. It also offers more advanced features that help translators Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

1. You removed the Hide menu option that used to appear when right-clicking a project name in memoQ 2014 (installer: memoQ-2014-Setup.64.exe). The Hide option was extremely useful, and there is currently no replacement that performs the same function.

The Hide feature allowed users to temporarily remove projects from the Project List without deleting them. At present, the only way to achieve a similar result is by using a workaround: I move the project’s folder to the Desktop, restart memoQ, and attempt to open the project again. memoQ then displays a message saying that the project no longer exists and asks whether I want to remove it from the list. I click Yes, and the project is removed from the Project List. After that, I move the project folder back to its original location, because I do not want to delete the project — I only want to hide it from the list.

2. memoQ does not provide a translation preview for InDesign files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is a powerful tool that allows real time collaboration among the team. It is now central to our activities. We were able to fine tune it too meet the specific needs of our team. The Live Docs are also a great feature that we use frequently to maximize the recycling of our previous work, thanks to a workflow that we created with the help of memoQ. I must say that the support from the memoQ training and support teams is beyond amazing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is a great customizable tool that may give the impression you are roaming hrough a labyrinth, especially at first. The interface could be a little more user-friendly. That being said, once you know your way through the tool, the possibilities are endless!! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
