### "Great tool for Managing translation tasks"

May 25, 2023

4.0

Pros

I like that is really great for using it for a team at the same time, it syncs, and also that keeps good track of status changes, plus the search is great either with tags or something specific. And is really great when you are working in different teams, you can compare with what other teams did.

Cons

sometimes I required to doble click the validation button because the status rolledback to previous status, it might be internet connection issue, but I think it wasn't that.

5.0

I very much enjoyed the platform. It is fairly priced, highly capable and very reliable. I would use it again.

Pros

Great design. Love the ability to train the AI by providing overall app context, and specific key context.

Cons

It had occasional issues with improperly escaping placeholders.

Alternatives considered

Hey Heba, Thanks for giving Tolgee a frontend review! We're thrilled you like how clients can jump right into editing – it's all about saving time! 😊 I am not perfectly sure what you mean by nesting translations in same application. If you could drop us an email at chalupnikova@tolgee.io with more specifics, we'd be super grateful. Thank you!

### "Review from o2o developer"

July 25, 2024

4.0

As a developer I like working with it but it was a bit hard to integrate with our setup due to the compatibility build of vue

Pros

The product is ideal for working together with our copy and translation team and helps us to ge translations faster and more correct into production

Cons

It was our choice to implement it in an app which runs the vue compatibility build and that does not always align with minor software upgrades from tolgee. CDN has some downtime sometimes.

Review Source

Response from Tolgee

August 2, 2024

Thank you for your review, Matthias! We're glad that Tolgee is helping your team with faster and more accurate translations. The outage was due to an issue with Microsoft Azure and unfortunately and was beyond our control. If you have any further suggestions, please don't hesitate to reach out.

### "Great Features and Easy to Use for Localization"

June 18, 2024

5.0

Pros

User-Friendly: Tolgee is incredibly intuitive, making it easy for anyone to get started quickly. Time-Saving: The machine learning feature saves a lot of time, which is crucial in startup environments like ours. Live Translation: The ability to translate text directly on the page, with context available, is incredibly powerful. Seamless Collaboration: Inviting colleagues is very simple and they can quickly understand how to use the platform.

Cons

Honestly, I can't find any cons. Tolgee works perfectly and meets all my needs, providing a smooth and efficient localization experience.

### "Tolgee - affordable & convenient localisation tool"

September 18, 2023

5.0

We've actively used Tolgee for a few months and are happy with the tool. I've been the most active user on our team, overseeing all translations and personally working on the Russian localisation. As for suggestions, I would benefit from being able to search across all projects because sometimes we have to locate a key or a phrase and it's not clear which project(s) it can be found in.

Pros

The interface is very simple and to-the-point. It's easy to navigate around the platform and oversee the progress across the projects. Machine translations are great and as correct as you could expect them to be. The translation memory functionality comes in handy for keeping the translations consistent and quickly translating repeating keys. Filtering and tags work great and allow us to quickly locate new and missing keys.

Cons

So far there's only one thing that is slightly annoying - the error messages that sometimes pop up during active use. However, it's easy to click out of those and they usually don't crash anything.

Response from Tolgee

September 20, 2023

Thank you for taking the time to provide such a detailed review, Anastasia! 🌟 I'm thrilled to hear that you find Tolgee affordable and convenient for localization. Your insight about searching across all projects is really great one! We will definitely discuss it.

### "Great tool for collaborative localization"

November 22, 2023

5.0

Pros

Interface is easy to use, really simple, nothing too complicated that obstructs vision. Only essential actions are displayed which makes the UI very good looking. The fact that it's a webapp makes it really good for supporting a maximum of platforms available. Self-hosting is also a great benefit from other platforms to integrate it in corporate / isolated networks.

Cons

Some features can still be improved. I haven't used the app enough to have a global view of the app but overall I don't find anything bad or misimplemented.

### "Thanks for the amazing job!"

May 25, 2023

4.0

We are confident that we can translate our app in every langage we would want in the future with tolgee

Pros

We were able to automate our process, and include our product team in the process of handling translations

Cons

Long to setup, we had to make our own scripts to handle sending/receiving translations

Reason for choosing Tolgee

The pricing and the ability to self host some day

Thank you so much for your review, Arnaud! We're thrilled to hear that Tolgee has helped you automate your process and involve your product team in translation handling.

The easy to use multilanguage support and easy integration with next.js and SSR nextjs is amazing

Cons

### "Fluent Search localization experience"

December 19, 2022

5.0

Localizing Fluent Search wouldn’t have been as easy without Tolgee. As a software targeted toward power users, it has more than 500 settings, each including name, descriptions, and many tooltips with over 1800 keys to be translated, with new keys added every week. Using Tolgee has been a breeze for the translators using machine and memory translations, while also providing the modern APIs I needed to fully integrate it into a CI/CD pipeline for deployment and version managing.

Pros

Easy to use interface and modern set of APIs for seemless integration of my app update pipeline.

Cons

Accessibility support for the website. Some of the translators for my app are visually impaired and did it not find Tolgee as accessible.

December 22, 2022

Thank you for your detailed review, Adir. We are aware of the imperfections of accessibility; we plan to focus on this issue next year. Thank you for your support.

### "Localization using Tolgee"

June 27, 2023

4.0

Pros

What I like about Tolgee is filter option; The filter options in Tolgee saves a lot of time and energy since you can easily get what you want. Additionally the platform allows us to both import and export so that you can easily download an exported file and add it to your project; which magically saves time.

Cons

I think the platform should integrates automatic translation for a given languages. which I think could help the platform to go forward unimaginably!

Review Source

Response from Tolgee

June 29, 2023

Thank you for your lovely review, Abeniezer! We are currently working on the Batch operations feature, which will make it easier to work with automatic translation. Stay tuned! Thank you for being a part of Tolgee community!

### "This app has solved all our translation problems"

December 12, 2022

4.0

We use Tolgee in our ReactJS apps. Everything works perfectly. We translate the most important texts right in the website. Hidden text like error messages are translated using the web interface of Tolgee app. Deployment is really easy, just save the translations and upload them to the production.

Pros

The best feature is translation tool in browser which allows us to translate text directly on page.

Cons

The application doesn't have any bigger issues, just the design of UI is a little old-school.

Reason for choosing Tolgee

Price, easy to use, feature that allows to translate text right in the site.

### "Quick and organised translation"

October 23, 2023

5.0

Pros

I like the fact that Tolgee is free if you decide to self-host it and the guides to make it happen are very detailed. The user interface is intuitive and minimal and this makes it very efficient. The machine translation (configured with our API key) was gold for our translator as it reduced drastically the time spend on single translation.

Cons

We had a bug that sometimes crashed the connection between the app and the database and it was kind difficult to identify it. But once we understood the problem and talk with support, they released a new version that fixed the bug.

### "Great Translation Tool!"

December 19, 2022

5.0

I followed the instructions in the documentation and was easily able to implement and start using Tolgee to translate my software. It will speed up this task a lot, without the need for someone with programming knowledge.

Pros

### "Tolgee test period"

January 26, 2024

4.0

Pros

Easy of use, organization and collaboration between teams. API Integrations, activity report although I'd like it to be a separate option so it has more details and filters to see who did what and when instead of scrolling down.

Cons

In cases where self-hosting is not used, the prices seem a bit high.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, Lluc. Your suggestion about the activity report is noted, and we'll work on providing more detailed and filterable options in activity reports.  Regarding pricing, we understand your concern, we continuously evaluate our pricing structure to ensure fairness and value for all our users. If you have any further thoughts or suggestions, feel free to reach out. Thanks again for choosing Tolgee platform!

4.0

Good for our needs now!

Pros

Ease of use. I loved the collaborative aspect and the versioning options. (see changes that the other member did )

Cons

I would have love to ''put in favorite'' or tags someone (a member). My workaround was to use the tag with the name of the person so she could review just those translation.
