"Solid translation features but limited by outdated design and platform restrictions"
What do you like best about Trados Studio?

Trados Studio remains a powerful tool for managing translation memories and termbases, and it offers strong quality-assurance checks that help ensure consistency. I also value the wide adoption of Trados in the industry, which makes it a common requirement for certain clients and agencies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Trados Studio?

The user interface feels outdated, similar to older versions of Microsoft Office, which makes navigation less intuitive than it could be. The cloud component is functional but has noticeable resource limitations, and overall it doesn’t provide the same flexibility I’ve seen in more modern platforms. Navigation between projects and files can be cumbersome, sometimes adding extra steps to routine tasks. A significant drawback is that the software is Windows-only, which forces Mac users like me to rely on virtual machines or additional setups just to run it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"In my opinion the very best translation tool on the market, by far"
What do you like best about Trados Studio?

Excellent plugins, excellent UI, excellent customisation options, this app has everything I need to work on a daily basis. It also seamlessly integrates machine translation APIs like DeepL's and the forums & support are reactive and very helpful. It's just easy to use, powerful and reactive, cannot ask for much more! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Trados Studio?

Honestly it's hard to find cons about this app, it's really brilliant. Some bugs are to be expected (read/write errors, switching up files too fast sometimes leads to crashes, but those are so few and far between, especially considering how much time I spend on it, that I can't really complain.

"Trados is essential for translators."
What do you like best about Trados Studio?

Very useful when there are fuzzy match or repeated passages in the translation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Trados Studio?

It can be difficult to find how to use some features. Opening different types of files to set up to start working. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Fundamental CAT tool for all freelance translators"
What do you like best about Trados Studio?

I like the fact that Trados offers so many features to improve the lives of translators, but at the same time I find it very confusing because I don't know how to use them all yet. It often takes me a long time to find what I'm looking for. I'd like to have the time to learn how to use them all. I like the fact that there are lots of shortcuts available for the functions offered. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Trados Studio?

I'd like the software to be faster between validating segments and to crash less when I have to manage large files. I'd also like there to be a shortcut for selecting all the text, like in other CAT tools (Phrase for example). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Essential and life saving"
What do you like best about Trados Studio?

After many years of use, I can say that I could not work without Trados Studio. The feature-rich interface and fast project creation speeds up work enormously, helps maintain consistency throughout the text, allows you to use multiple translation memories and glossaries at the same time, and performs quality control by which the translation turns out flawlessly. Personally, I use it for all my translations, both because the translation agencies I work with require it and because I prefer to use it even when I don't have to, since it is very convenient and speeds up the work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Trados Studio?

Some features are a little more difficult to use and you only become familiar with them after a long time of using the software. Once you understand how they work, however, they are useful and effective in terms of saving time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Trados Studio is a complex, but excellent software for Computer-Assisted-Translator."
What do you like best about Trados Studio?

It has amazing features, and opens plenty of file formats, offers excellent QA features, alignment, there are plugins for virtually everything. In addition, it is fast and responsive. I absolutely love working with Trados. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Trados Studio?

The main issue with Trados Studio is that is fairly complex, and often throws errors. The paid customer support is a bit...disappointing to say the least. No complaints other than that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
