General Manager Translation and Localization Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Efficiency boost" January 9, 2019 5.0 Awesome. Pros Easy to use, frequent updates, workflow, QA, translation, POs, MT all in one platform. Our project managers save up to 80% on project management effort. Automation of workflows allow us meet customer demand on agility. In-context translation of indesign and html is a huge plus. Cons I would love to have the possibility to merge source segments.

Cons Since the tool works only online, I couldn't work on my tasks without internet access. Review Source CM Carles M. Linguist Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Decent tool with limitations " December 23, 2024 3.0 Mi experience with the tool has been bittersweet. It is a usable tool that will get the job done and you will be able to improve if you invest (time and money) in It. On the other hand, other similar tools are more capable and reliable from the get go. Pros It offers integrations with many services. If you’re familiar with other CAT tools, you will find also a known environment. Cons The workbench’s layout is rather dated and the dictionaries that come with the tool are not very effective. Loads of false positives.

I was afraid I had to learn to use yet another complicated tool, but XTM is super easy to use and intuitive! I can use the licence provided by the client and easily work online. It has a simple and straightforward interface, with everything a translator may need. Cons It doesn't work with the speech recognition software I usually use - which is no big issue for smaller project, but a bit annoying for longer ones. Review Source Response from XTM International August 1, 2022 Thank you for your review - we really appreciate it! I'm glad to hear you found the tool easy to use and intuitive! I'm sorry to hear it doesn't have all the features you need yet, but we're always improving our solution and adding new functionality to XTM Cloud - in fact, if you submit an idea via our Wish List (accessible here: https://xtm.cloud/ondemand/xtm-productboard/), it may get added to the roadmap!

Pros It's a powerful tool, very well suited for a work chain with well-established processes. Cons The size of the font is very small, you can scale it up, but not much. Review Source OH Ondřej H. Linquist Translation and Localization Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Worst CAT tool at the moment" September 5, 2024 1.0 Pros I wish there was something to praise about this Cons Slow, freezes, lacking functions, makes work harder Review Source VR Verified Reviewer CEO Translation and Localization Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Review of XTM" June 30, 2022 3.0 XTM slows down our productivity, prompting us to charge our clients higher prices. If at all, XTM is a solution for small and recurrent Continuous Localization projects. Pros I believe the only thing we like about XTM is that it´s free to use. To be clear, our clients pay for a license pool and then sublet the licenses to third parties like us. Cons XTM has a portal for project managers, who buy translations from freelance translators. We don´t know this portal. We only know the translator portal and it is full of product design flaws: 1. Integration with MS Word spell checker does not work properly 2. The propagation of cross-file repetitions does not work 3. The QA module has very limited functionality and is very slow and cumbersome; in fact, most agencies are asking us to export to Xbench 4. The UI is not self-explanatory 5. The tool is online only - there is no offline editor 6. 100% matches are not being pulled into files automatically 7. It is not possible to filter/block segments you are not paid for, such as locked segments 8. When clients send a project with 10 files, you cannot merge these 10 files into 1. If you want to change apples into oranges in 10 files, you need to open each file individually. 9. Not all the content is displayed on-screen. If the project has 10.000 words, XTM may display them on 10 pages, 1000 words each. If you need to fix a recurring issue at the end of the translation, you will need to bring up each of the 10 pages individually (and wait until it loads). 10. XTM is like a point-and-shoot camera, making it impossible to load personal assets such as TM and glossary, which might be useful for the translation process. Review Source Response from XTM International August 1, 2022 Dear XTM Cloud user, I'm so sorry to hear you're not happy with our solution! Let me see if I help with some of the issues you are experiencing. It seems some of the points you raised are configuration options that your client can tailor to meet your needs. With that in mind, it may be beneficial to work with your client to agree on the project configurations that work best for you both? Also, although it is not yet possible to open and manage all project files within one session, it is possible to run a Find & Replace operation across all files. You would simply need to expand the "Options" in the Find and replace dialog and find the "Include segments from all files" option. When it comes to being complex and not easy to use, I wonder if some training webinars would be beneficial? You can find a lot of content on our platform XTM On Demand. Or, you can contact us about training or raise a support ticket if anything isn't working as it should. I hope this helps! Melissa JL Jacobus L.

It is clunky, it keeps closing down "for security reasons" (who invented that!?) and it is just super slow to work with. This software costs me a fortune in lost production time. I prefer any other option online and prefer to spend the money on reliable software like Trados. I have a client that is only working with this software, but I am thinking of ditching the client because this software is just an outright nightmare. Pros I don't see any pros compared to actual professional software in the industry. Cons Crashes all the time. All quality control options are clunky and too much hassle. Quality control can be shut down per segment, however, as soon as you run an overall QC it switches back on. It is just not build by someone who has any idea about what a translator needs and wants.

Sounds like you're not happy with our product, which is a shame. I'm really sorry to hear that - but I'd like to help! Would some training be helpful? We are aware our UI needs a little refresh, which is in progress, but we can help you make the best of XTM Cloud in the meantime!

Good price for money Nice to have the mobile app!! I used XTM for all my project cause it is a perfect all in one translation management solution. Cons it is packed with many features it takes sometimes to know all of them - the mobile app is getting better Review Source ES ELIAS S. TRANSLATOR Used the software for: 2+ years ### "It's the best Cat tool I have ever used. It makes my job much easier, as it should be!" February 1, 2018 5.0 It makes my job flow easily. Pros Very simple and easy to use, without those cluttered interface and features (you barely use or need) that you find in most Cat tools. I don't have to worry about back-ups. Everything is saved there! I don't have to pay for updates or upgrades. Excellent technical support. Cons There should be a way to eliminate the tags automatically. (I know most Cat tools don't have do that either.) Review Source VV Valentina V. Translator Translation and Localization Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Basic CAT-tool" October 25, 2021 3.0 Pros It's an easy to use software, available only if you have an Internet connection. Cons I think that it's very basic, it provides a few features and it's not so flexible as other CAT-tools. The fact that it is only available with an Internet connection limits its use because sometimes you have no Internet availability (for example when on journey). Review Source SG Shahzad G. CTO Computer Software Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Support team is worst. Sale team is great" May 2, 2019 1.0 Worst Pros I was doing trial because of their low price. Their sales team is great. And she demonstrated me for their software. Software is great overall except a few things Cons The support team is worst both on LIve chat and ticket support.
