“Some of them even interrupted/stopped the connection - you then get the error message that the supporter is experiencing technical problems. When you try to open a new support ticket, the next supporter informs you to go back to the other one.“

“The plugin, automatically catalogs and indexes content in the background while you build the website content in default language, and then let's you or another team translate it. If the content is modified in one language, it is easy to track what to translate to maintain consistency - no guesswork.“

### "Great product, great support "

September 19, 2025

5.0

Great experience from product to support! Flexible solution that’s easy to use and getting started with.

Pros

Great product, simple to use and fast to get started with. I’ve also been in contact with their support for various reasons, which they have always solved excellently. Just recently \[sensitive content hidden\] at the WPML support team helped me really professionally! Recommend WPML highly and also shout out to \[sensitive content hidden\] for amazing support.

Cons

Interface in the plugin could be a little bit better. Not a big issue, but would make it a bit easier to understand whilst getting started.

### "setting up the language switcher"

May 6, 2026

5.0

I was solving a problem with WPML visual compatibility in the Impreza theme. The default settings were not working as expected. \[sensitive content hidden\] provided me with valuable information, and I finally solved the problem.

Pros

I've been using WPML for many years, it always works reliably and the support is great and always tries to help.

Cons

Everything is OK. I haven't encountered a problem that couldn't be solved yet. The support is always qualified.

### "A very helpful tool – with a lot of very unnerving and time-wasting shortcomings"

March 3, 2026

2.0

A very helpful tool – with a lot of very unnerving and time-wasting shortcomings. WPML-support is often misunderstanding issues in question.

Pros

That it helps me translate my website's content. And that I do have a good deal of control over my work.

Cons

It's very cumbersome: you have to install five different plugins. The user interface is very convoluted. It often leads to conflicts with other plugins or has its own deficiencies. E.g.: user roles are not working as supposed. Support with their Maiya AI Support is below par: it just does not understand and keeps repeating the same questions.

Reason for choosing WPML

The supposed gain in control when integrating translation services in our own site. And pricing is way better.

### "Easy to use and great tech support"

April 15, 2025

5.0

WPML has made a huge difference to our website and allowed us to communicate with our Spanish speaking users. There have been times when I was unable to properly grasp where certain features where or understand how to make them work efficiently. Each time I have had to use customer support, I have found them to be very responsive and helpful. It may take two or three communications but the issue is always solved. The last customer service rep, Kor, was wonderful in assisting me in understanding how to navigate an issue. He took the time to explain everything and even included screen shots. I always feel confident that tech support will help me resolve an issue within a short time frame. I had looked at other translating software and have found WPML to be the best solution for our needs.

Pros

Simple and easy to translate our entire website to Spanish which opened up our website to our Spanish speaking users.

Cons

It can be a little difficult to navigate but once you grasp where everything is, it's easy to use.

January 27, 2026

5.0

Happy with the outcome as they resolved all issues within 3 working days. This is much faster than other software providers.

Pros

The support resolved all 4 problems,some of them relating toothed interaction with another plugin (Divi)

Cons

Notification of response didn’t get to me in a timely fashion. This may be due to my set up but did delay some interaction.

### "WPML and translations become child's play"

July 1, 2025

5.0

I have a project (still in progress) whose website we translated into three languages using WPML, and this plugin saved us a lot of time when it came to the content. We were impressed by the way translations can be created and how flexible they are to configure, etc.

Pros

Flexibility and compatibility, as well as super-fast support in our language. Plus, the excellent ticket system and support staff who patiently answer all questions.

Cons

So far, I haven't found anything I don't like. I don't think there will be anything else to complain about either.

WPML is quite complex, but I rarely have had any bugs or issues with the software.

Pros

It is a solution that makes it possible that I can use fully multilingual websites.

5.0

Pros

I had a problem with the elementor template translation of the blog pages and Andreas from the WPML support team helped me to solve this problem. Great support!

Cons

WPML can be complicated if you have a bigger website with templates or shop system... Especial if you don't want to use the automatic translation feature.

July 11, 2025

I have a lifetime license and it works well all time and when there is a problem they solve it quickly.

Pros

Flexibility. Simplicity of use. Ready to go. Help is ever present wherever you are in. Al people who works in is very effective.

Cons

Too much options in string translations (laughs). It's hard to find what you need sometimes, what in the end you have successful.

### "Very (too?) good plugin"

March 24, 2025

4.0

Bigul (the guy who answered my first support ticket and who I contact everytime I have a problem now) is of great help

Pros

The many options for translating stuff on the platform.

Cons

The same thing as the pros. The explanation for this also being a con is this: not knowing what you are doing, you can easily break things even when you take it step by step

### "Support with patience and perseverance"

May 30, 2025

5.0

I had an issue I really couldn't solve myself. So I used support and luckily for me I was connected to Lauren. She was the extra pair of eyes needed to find the issue. It took a while to find what was wrong but she stuck with me throughout. Really greatful!

Pros

I'm a big fan on how thorough WPML works. You can really translate everything fairly easily. And the automatic translation in great!

Cons

I'm not a big fan of how large the plugin is. It really takes up a large amount of memory on the server.

### "WPML tech support is great"

March 24, 2025

5.0

Overall good, we had a translation go down due to a translated page being set to draft. We had no idea that would be a problem but WPML's tech support helped tremendously. \[sensitive content hidden\] helped us get back on track.

Pros

Great that you can set and forget translations (though be careful and have someone who can verifythe translations). Lots of options on the backend Pay-as-you-go so you are only charged for what you need.

Cons

There are a LOT of options, so it's a bit confusing, especially if you're not an expert in WordPress already

Very good. I have been working with WPML for many years now and am happy with it.

Pros

Simple, robust, does what it needs to do; when it doesn't, the support is great.

Not much. The translation screen can sometimes be a pain, but most of the time it's o.k.

December 20, 2024

5.0

Seamless implementation across four languages. A big thank you to \[sensitive content hidden\] from the support team who helped us with clear information and guidance when we had some issues/questions finding the best way to translate items such as custom fields.

Pros

Easily translated our entire WordPress site, including content, themes, and plugins. You can choose your preferred translation method: automatic or manual. Lastly support is efficient and reactive.

Cons

Nothing so far, although with all the options it can be a bit overwhelming to find the right way to do things and use WPML in an efficient way.

Very effective plugin that allowed me to translate my e-commerce site. Simplified integration thanks to the step-by-step guide.

Thanks to him for his responsiveness, efficiency, and availability.

### "The translation solution best integrated into the WordPress ecosystem"

October 10, 2024

4.0

The support interface is much improved. The support team is as competent as ever, as I found out when I spoke to \[sensitive content hidden\].

Pros

Efficient translation solution compatible with many WordPress plugins

Cons

It's a big plugin, perhaps a little complex to configure. Future versions should perhaps offer the possibility of making it easier to use, for example by deactivating the translation flow through external translators. Still a few problems with the advanced editor of WPML.
