AD Andre D. Translation coordinator Professional Training & Coaching Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 12/13/2021 "Great CAT tool, proactive customer service" 5/5 What do you like best about Smartcat? Smartcat offers an excellent cat tool at no cost, and help is available if needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Smartcat? When doing translation jobs with smartcat we are invited to use Payoneer as a payment system, and payoneer is much worse in terms of service than any other payment system I know. They simply keep the money forever "in review".Never choose to use payoneer if you work with smartcat. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Smartcat: Consider comparing the translations draft with another CAT tool or MT tool to increase your options. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Smartcat solving and how is that benefiting you? The CAT tools quality is comparable to other CAT or MT systems, and it comes at no cost, or when you wish for priority service, you can buy it by volume of pages to translate, not as a subscription or annual payment. Sometimes a file may cause a problem, but in this case the customer service helps almost immediately. Smartcat is very useful for my students, too, since I teach translation.

Freelance Translation and Localization Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 8/13/2022 "Perfect match for businesses freelance translators" 5/5 What do you like best about Smartcat? SmartCat platform is helpful for freelance translators and proofreaders to search and position themselves for suitable jobs by registering themselves at their preferred rates. It is a practical CAT tool to help you translate and use translation memories and glossaries to speed up and stay consistent. Similarly, businesses get a mine of freelance workers to choose from at their preferred rates. You get paid for your work through SmartCat, and you can also add clients from other projects to receive quick payments. The interface is quite user-friendly. You also get OCR and machine translation help for nominal charges. Keep pitching to get 3-star ratings and complete a 100% profile to get regular matching with jobs. It’s a win-win platform for businesses and professionals. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Smartcat? OCR and MT are paid tools. So, you may have to pay extra to get help from these tools. Although it has plenty of jobs listed, some may be too old and irrelevant. You may filter the ones related to your language pair. Initially, you may find it challenging to find enough work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Smartcat solving and how is that benefiting you? It matches the needs of business and freelance professionals, especially in translation and proofreading. You don’t need to search for jobs. If you are consistent and systematic, jobs will come to you automatically. Businesses get the best talent in one place with quoted rates per word. SmartCat is an ideal CAT tool for translators and proofreaders to work systematically. Once the client approves your work, you get paid in a few days through Paypal, etc., at nominal charges.

Translator Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 9/8/2022 "It's not a very user-friendly experience, but it did help me find a few new clients." 2.5/5 What do you like best about Smartcat? I like that you could get paid through the system and find new projects through their projects board. The referral system is also another great thing that Smartcat offers, since you get paid for bringing your clients into it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Smartcat? The CAT system itself isn't particularly advanced and could use some improvement. I did find some new projects on the jobs board. However, there aren't that many projects to work with, and the platform could do better to market itself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Smartcat solving and how is that benefiting you? It's quite a unique platform for translators and copywriters, and it's pretty novel to have a CAT system alongside a project board. However, the import/export system could use some improvement, and it would be great if there were more projects to bid on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

AA Amir A. Writer Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 11/21/2022 "Smartcat has provided me an awesome opportunity to work as a freelance translator." 5/5 What do you like best about Smartcat? My favorites at Smartcat are the freelancer-client linking feature and the various payment methods. Shortly, everything is in one place: There is no need for invoicing, and finding jobs and accepting invitations is easy and fast. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Smartcat? There is no guarantee that clients pay on time. The Availability section is useless because there is no prevention or warning for clients when I am busy. Also, supporting right-to-left languages can be better as there is a mess-up in the mixture of English and an RTL language. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Smartcat solving and how is that benefiting you? The appearance of the Editor section and the public profile page has improved. The options for Productivity Services are significantly fewer; I think the last option (e.g., Google Drive linking) could be useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
