## Who uses WPML?

Based on Capterra reviews from the past 3 years

## Features

AI summary

Based on 1,802 Translation Management reviews

Capterra reviewers highlight these as the features buyers care about most when choosing translation management software:

-   **Text Editing** (**42%** of reviewers rated this feature as critical)
-   **Multi-Language** (**53%**)
-   **Translator Database** (**38%**)

WPML includes **Text Editing** and **Multi-Language**, so teams can manage multilingual content and update translated text within the same system. However, it does not include **Translator Database**. Instead, it offers **Machine Translation** (**35%**), which gives businesses another way to produce translated content without relying on a built-in directory of translators, helping teams publish across languages faster and keep localization work moving.

Overall, thanks to the great support of Dražen, we successfully deployed WPML on our website and can now operate it with multiple languages without our content team having to worry about each translation.

Pros

Easy to install and overall good automatic translation. It's compatible with many mainstream visual page builders, such as Divi or Elementor.

Cons

WPML occasionally has compatibility issues with the very latest versions of the mainstream visual page builders. The initial set-up can be a bit tricky, with too many fine-tuning features required, such as the language switching menus. Moreover, fully understanding the flow of translations, reviews and published, accessible throughout the WordPress environment, rather than from one single submenu, makes it a bit confusing to see in which state your translated pages are.

Tuvimos un problema con las etiquetas y la muestra de unas viviendas y gracias a \[contenido sensible oculto\] se solucionó despues una llamada y hacer pruebas. Buena profesional

Pros

Las traducciones y el seo que hace están muy bien. Tienes varios traductores y es intuitivo y fácil de usar.

Cons

Que se puede desconfigurar la página web fácilmente. Cómo dobles traducciones de un idioma a otro y luego borres esa propiedad, se desconfigura la web

Absolutely perfect. Especially the help from \[sensitive content hidden\] . He provided excellent support. He found and solved an issue of ACF titles not showing up in the correct language with dynamic fields inside the Divi 5 theme builder. Now everything works perfectly! Thanks \[sensitive content hidden\] for your fantastic support!

Pros

The perfect assistance, thorough investigation and clear instructions by \[sensitive content hidden\] . He really took the time to search for the cause of the issue and find the solution. Which he did. Absolutely great!

Cons

I cannot think of any. Perhaps the learning curve for me appeared to be a bit high, but maybe that was because this was the very first time that I have worked with WPML.

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.

Great! I use WPML on all of my multilingual sites! Its the best tool with the best support. Recommend it!

Pros

The support team is absolutely amazing. Especially \[sensitive content hidden\]! Yesterday he helped me solve a problem I was struggling with for months!

Cons

Sometimes is feels too complex and it has many available settings. Also translating plugins strings is a bit hard for me.

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.

Great! I would recommend it especially for small companies. Support is friendly even though sometimes a bit complicated to understand.

Pros

Easy to use, flexible. good value for my money. The learning curve is managable. Automated translation is very good quality.

Cons

Sometimes too complicated in finding untranslated strings. Does not work well with some LMS systems.

Everything has been great. And support has always been helpful. I never had an issue that could not be solved. Even the most complicated cases are easily resolved with the help of support.

Pros

Great product that has been helping my projects for many years now. Will be using it in future projects for sure.

Cons

It solves the multilingual WordPress websites better than other solutions I have tried. And I have tried at least three.

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.

Very positive. It is the gold standard for WordPress multilingual sites. A huge thank you to \[sensitive content hidden\] for the personalized help—her expertise made a big difference in my workflow!

Pros

The plugin is incredibly robust and handles complex translations with ease. What really stands out, however, is the support. I had the pleasure of being assisted by \[sensitive content hidden\], who was professional, patient, and very helpful. She made sure my issue with WPML was resolved quickly and efficiently.

Cons

WPML has a bit of a learning curve because it's so feature-rich, but with support like \[sensitive content hidden\]’s, you never feel stuck.
