Lokalise

So easy, even at extreme scale

주석: Previously, localization was a situation in which our teams would constantly step on each others toes, trying to use Google Sheets to coordinate with each other and developers. It just never worked well and we wasted so much time on it until we found Lokalise. Now, translators can see what text is being edited in real time and work together to ensure the most correct translations.

장점:

Lokalise makes localization SO easy, even when working with extremely large teams. It's also packed full of features that make managing localizing easy, like SDKs for iOS and Android, easy batch edit tools and integrations with third party apps like Slack so we get notified when new strings are added. The duplicate editor has allowed us to drastically cut down on translation time. Finally, the latest feature we found and love is translation memory which allows us to translate a common word or phrase once and then Lokalise can automatically suggest it in the future.

단점:

Sometimes the website can be a bit slow... but we do have thousands of strings so I can't really blame them

Comprehensive Solution for a Translation Workflow

주석: We are managing all our strings with this solution We are translating into 3 different languages (e.g. English, German and Romanian). The benefits we have realized lies first of in dissolving one bottleneck of passign all the translated strings through our development team. Now our managers and translators handle all the strings and formulations, and the devs focus on other tasks.

장점:

The app has really reviewed translation workflows and included integrations and tools for all the roles in the team. We can say from integrating this solution with our current web app, that we were astounded by the simplicity the tool connects to the repository, get's the most current keys the developers added and easily pushes changes back to the repository. From a developers perspective this is a dream to use. The translation tools are also on par with the rest, with multiple views for editing, suggestions from major translation software (e.g. Google Translate) and placeholders support. The design is also nice and friendly and well thought out, allowing for easy understanding without needing to read documentation.

단점:

At the time of the review we haven't encountered any issues or discomforts with the solution.

Review for Lokalise

장점:

--Intergration with Github --API to automate translation process --Customer support, timely response --Screenshots for context

단점:

--Unsupported file formats --TM is not context based and not per language --TM can't be exported in XLS format --String description is not available with "Allow source key editing" disabled (we do not use "Allow source key editing") --Performance issues with large files --Terminology import/export is not available with XLS format --Some functionality is not user friendly (e.g. too many dependencies, reports are not easy to read) --word count is confusing

Great tool for collaborative localization

주석: My team is really satisfied with Lokalise. It is a dream compared to our old tool and their support is really responsive.

장점:

- dashboard - easy to use - collaboration features - translation suggestions are really helpful

단점:

- GitHub integration is a bit complicated

Great location platform!

주석: We were looking for a tool to manage all our translations for our Apps and Lokalise surprised us. In a few hours we have imported our projects and the export to iOS and Android is fast and easy.
Let's move on to the payment plan because it's worth it.

장점:

- It's very easy to import and export. - Automatic language detection when importing all files. - Grammar checking is very useful. - Perfect for App developers. - Multiple format support (excel, csv...) - Group keys by a specific tag or file.

단점:

* We miss being able to see all the QA's and warnings without having to create a specific filter for all of them. * We have not yet discovered how to ignore the header (first lines) of a CSV or Excel file.

Awesome software that greatly eases our L10n workflow

주석: Awesome. The team is quick to react and have a killer product

장점:

- The fact that we have can have different keys that are differ based on the platform - We can add screenshots [with automatic OCR!] to add more context to our translations

단점:

They don't have support for variable-width strings (an iOS/macOS feature) [yet?], this isn't a life changing feature per se, but would be nice

Best service for localising your content!

주석: I haven't seen anything better than Lokalise at this price level. Also amazing customer support!

장점:

I love this service because it is built for software engineers in mind. It supports all the different file formats you might need, works super well with the different languages, great APIs and integration with other services that we use. It's top in the class and pricing is very reasonable. Our translation team loves the product team and for them, it's ease of use and supportive UI that really helps you catch small mistakes. Highly recommend!!

단점:

I really like that you can order translations with just a few clicks, but it's hard to know who is translating the text. It would be great if you would have the same person assigned to your project and could directly talk with him.

The best translation platform I've ever experienced

주석: More than perfect. I am able to manage our translation campaign thanks to Lokalise and everyone is super satisfied. Thank you Lokalise!

장점:

1. Easy to use I tried to use a couple of other translation platforms before but Lokalise is the easiest to learn and use. Our open source translators were satisfied as well. 2. Developer friendly Automatic Github integration, handy upload and download, and other developer friendly features 3. Free for open source projects Lokalise contributes to the open source ecosystem together offering its wonderful services for free for open source projects. I already recommended Lokalise to other open source projects. 4. Customer services The customer services are super detailed and fast. Even I'd like to know how the team manages the CS department and educate the team by themselves.

단점:

Does not support md(markdown) files, which are one of the most popular extensions to maintain documentation.

Big fan of this system and top notch support

주석: Our company wants to rapidly translate our products to reach new markets. At the same time, we have medically sensitive texts which need to be reviewed by a medical expert after the are translated. I spent loads of time analyzing the market and lokalise ticked every box so we signed up. The experience has been great. The customer support via chat has solved every issue I have and the inferface is good enough such that I can send a task to a non-technical person, for example to review texts in our app, and they immediately figure out what they need to do without any further instruction. So yes I’m a fan and would strongly recommend it.

장점:

Great features and support Workflow and task manager fits like a glove with our needs

단점:

Couple of minor user interface improvements could be made

Awesome tool with rich set of features

주석: Everything went great so far. We are still learning, but enjoying the Lokalise.

장점:

+ Help to unite and sync your translations + Provide good UX/UI + Easy to onboard contributors for new languages + Rich set of managing the users inside the projects

단점:

Its not a cons, but would be great to see and open-source project on GitHub with an example of Android, iOS and web app with lokalise in order to speed up even more the onboarding of dev for this tool.

Great instrument for mobile development

주석: We develop mobile apps for iOS and Android. We have several products and each of them has from 6 to 25 localisations. It is unreal to maintain all of these localisations by yourself and Localise solve this problem nicely.

장점:

Easy to filter, search and edit keys. Automation of the localization​ process with translation providers. Supporting iOS and Android localization files.

단점:

Screenshots and description are crucial for the right translation. Drag & drop for a screenshot and description editing would be easier without additional popups on the main project screen. More flexible rights for members by sharing the payment method. Many of team should order translation by oneself but now it could be done only by members ​with an ​attached credit card.

Great product, amazing service

주석: Lokalise plays an integral part in our internationalisation and localisation strategy. Making it easy to localise our products helped us to get new business.

장점:

There are many things to like about Lokalise. A few stand out: * The UI is easy to understand, and helps a lot with quickly translating and reviewing a lot of content. * Customer Support is truly amazing. A very responsive team and issues are resolved quickly. * Integration with translation partners and machine learning helps to get started quickly with high-quality translations.

단점:

Getting started was a bit hard, especially integrating Lokalise into our build process. That's been almost a year though, so that might be easier now. Small bugs pop up from time to time; one of those actually broke output. But these are usually resolved very quickly when Lokalise is informed of them.

Fantastic tool for managing the localization process

장점:

This tool facilitates a streamlined localization process amongst admin, translators and reviewers. The workflow fits very well to our needs. The User interface is friendly. Managing big amount of translation data is simple with smart filtering/sorting and extremely importantly the backup. Getting support using the online chat is super efficient. The customer service agent on the other side is polite and always helpful.

단점:

This tool works very well for us. Hard to think of anything I don't like. The team behind has done a fantastic job building this.

Great service and support

장점:

Ability to choose multiple vendors is great. Updating text on runtime is great. Support is great.

단점:

Dashboard is harder to get used to and overall is not really easy to use

Great product.

장점:

Functionality and support are amazing! There are a lot of useful​ features. Support works 24/7

단점:

I like this product, there is nothing that I don't like.

Simple solution for delegating translations!

주석: I'm helping translate the Open Source software Home Assistant (home-assistant.io) and its iOS companion app. Lokalise is a solid foundation for a novice to help with translations and contribute to an OSS project with no programming knowledge required. I'm looking into how we can use Lokalise at work to help translate our business software as well - the workflow enabled by Lokalise fits our problem ideally as we have international partners that could help with translations but can't because we don't yet use this tool.

장점:

When trying to localize software, you can delegate the translation duties to anyone capable of doing the translation - be they inside or outside your company. It's simple to use and integrates well into app development and CI/CD workflows!

단점:

Tracking and giving permissions to languages in projects with many people doing translations is less than ideal but not a dealbreaker.

Makes localizing application painless

주석: Makes localizing and app painless,The software might not be 100% perfect, but when concerns arise their support team is always there to help and resolve them

장점:

Makes it easy and fast for us to translate new strings for our application. Gives us access to professional translators without the hassle to export / reimport the strings in different formats like i'v done in the past (Excel sheets). Their support is very responsive and comprehensive

Perfect translator “swiss knife”

장점:

Ease of use, super fast and friendly online support.

단점:

Can’t remember any, so far I didn’t have any negative experiences

Waves Platform

장점:

Having tried a large number of similar services stopped at lokalise. Incredibly convenient functionality! Work with a large amount of data as comfortable as possible. The work of technical support at height. Always help!

단점:

Difficult to answer. All "bad" moments are decided in the technical support chat and are corrected. Just magic!

Very quick support

장점:

When I and my team member ask something, the support center answer very quickly.

단점:

It supports only English. Why don't you translate for your software.

Good

장점:

Ui / ux is quite nice. I don t have a heavy use of it nevertheless

단점:

Everything is ok. Of all the translation system I checked it is the one I prefer

Really good translation tool !

장점:

It's a easy to use tool with a friendly design; Support is good and reactive. Must have to handle translation on multi platforms.

단점:

While lokalise's improving a lot, there's still some cases to handle, like android menu items or strings using in customs views;

Pricy but very good

장점:

Very easy to use, and great and very fast support.

단점:

I missed the BitBucket integration, but that's added too :-)

Powerful localization software

장점:

I like the tight integration with our Ruby on rails backend. It makes deploying translations easy. I also like how easy it is to order translations from them, get free machine translations, or hire your own private translator.

단점:

It used to be expensive, but the new pricing model reduced our yearly fee from $2,000/year to $200/year, so it's now a great value

Working with Lokalise

장점:

Easy to use, nice Layout, features that help automate the data exchange, QA features, Tools to discuss the best translation, or to clarify the meaning of something. API to communicate with Lokalise.

단점:

It is hard to get an overview about all the keys in use. Sometimes, depending on the QA state, it is difficult to find a specific key. The API shows information you cannot see in the UI.
