### "Great localization tool that offers a lot of quality for the price"

November 9, 2020

5.0

I love using Phrase! It makes localization so much easier and more streamlined. Plus, everyone, from developers to translators is on the same tool which makes things very simple.

Pros

Easy to use, quick onboarding, screenshots, in-context editor, comment function, customer service

Cons

Sometimes the in-context editor doesn't work

### "Simple and intuitive"

July 18, 2022

5.0

Pros

It's easy to use right out of the box - no need for time-consuming training. Using driving a car as an analogy, you can simply get in, turn the key in the ignition and drive away without spending time with your head under the bonnet.

Cons

I'd like to be able to add existing TMs.

### "Translator/Reviewer's best friend"

February 23, 2020

5.0

Memsource is a very helpful tool with well thought options for both translators or proofreaders (haven't tried yet another role) but I'm overall very satisfied.

Pros

I like how easy it is to use Memsource, since day one, no need to familiarize for both translators and proofreaders.

Cons

When approving many segments, one after another at a fast past, it seems like it can't keep up (but no confirmation is lost, it only takes a little time to catch you up)

It was the client's choice, I was a little skeptic but didn't think twice once I used it.

### "Efficient translation software"

November 28, 2019

4.0

Our multilingual software with more than 10 languages for business use needs the GIT integration with JSON format for a HTML single page application, as we are working in a team of developers and business partners together.

Pros

\- GIT integration (integrate your translation to the code development flow) - UI/UX easy to use - administration of users (role management) - translation jobs

Cons

\- pricing model (shouldn't scale proportionally but be a better deal for more users)

### "It's a must if you have more than one language in your app."

October 27, 2019

5.0

We are doing our apps localizations through PhraseApp. Also, using some of the APIs to pull and push some new keys to Phrase which is very cool, easy to use and convenient.

Pros

I love the ease of use for this tool. Everything is very simple and there. You can understand what to do by looking at it.

Cons

Notification options are a bit strange. I'd like to have notifications options for the keys I create it.

### "An easy to use, powerful solution for complex translation work"

October 15, 2020

5.0

I came to Memsource through their free-to-use education suite. Having previously worked in the localisation industry using a range of CAT tools, I can safely say that Memsource never fails to deliver, and it is a powerful and reliable translation and project management tool.

Pros

Memsource is extremely intuitive. The project management and the translation interface as well is pretty straithforward. Coming with experience in Trados and other translation solutions, this took literally zero seconds to get used to. Machine translation is nicely integrated, and it delivers surprisingly good results.

Cons

Sometimes the segmentation of sentences is less than ideal, but it is not too much of a trouble.

### "Memsource, the best online CAT tool"

October 21, 2020

5.0

Memsource got me started in the world of online translation platforms

Pros

I love the UI of this tool, clean and simple and never any bug

Cons

I didn't like its pricing structure if you want to have many users with basic options.

Reason for choosing Phrase

I ended up selecting Smartcat for cost reasons

### "Experience with Memsource Cloud"

February 7, 2020

4.0

Bassically agencies would assign jobs to me through Memsource, which I then would complete. I think it is a great tool, but maybe you should offer low-cost 'pay per job' features so that freelance translaters would just have to pay for the service when they themselves upload a documento to translate.

Pros

I think it is very easy to use. It has some of the basic tools that come in handy.

Cons

It could have some more features. Like the posibility to upload and edit files as a freelancer, withouth having to pay a montly fee.

February 10, 2020

Hello Roel, thank you for your review. If you would like to add your own resources to a job you get assigned in Memsource, you can give our Team Start license a try. It is a license meant for these purposes and you can test it with a 30day free trial on our website. You can also upload your own documents for translation using that license.

### "Recommended for modern translators "

July 12, 2022

5.0

Pros

The most impactful feature is definitely the accessibility of the tool itself. Compared with other CAT tools, I can simply access Memsource online without installation. It allows me to use it on various devices as long as it is connected to the internet.

Cons

Sometimes, the loading of the website takes quite a long time and it is quite annoying and frustrating.

Hi Jintao - we're happy to hear you're enjoying using Memsource in your browser and across multiple devices. Sorry to hear the load time is sometimes long, this can be related to the internet as well, but we hope it will improve for you.

### "Pleasantly Surprised"

January 31, 2020

5.0

Pros

I really like that the software is intuitive and easy to use. I had zero experience using it before my client said it was a 'must'. I was pleasantly surprised that I could just jump into the action without having to take an onboarding course like with Trados.

Cons

I hate locked segments across files. I get why they're there, but it impedes the flow of my work. I also don't care for the very fuzzy matches the software sometimes automatically inserts. These often include source text, which is a big deal when dealing with Cyrillic source material and Latin-based target texts.

### "Beneficial"

July 13, 2022

5.0

Pros

I used Memsource as a transcreation/editing provider of a London-based transcreation & creative copy agency for a project they were running for one of their clients. I only did editing and used per-segment comments. Overall my user experience was just fine.

Cons

The only thing that I found a bit hard was to find the segments I commented before and I couldn't be sure if I got a reply to them. I had to go over every one of them to see if there was any response.
