A great platform for your translation needs

As discribed with the most thing i loved about the platform, the communication and live work between the team members, as the platform can let you know who is working on what to prevent duplication and track good progress, and it does it in a beautiful way, even team members that were non tech were able to understand the UI/UX what it was trying to tell them (although my team was not even English proficient)

Pros:

What i liked the most about transifex is how it can seamlessly integrate with any of our platform for integration, where other platforms failed at. We were using complex translations that includes right to left writing scripts and even languages that are quite tricky to translate including arabic, pashto, urdu, kurmanji and sourani, most of these language are near extinct and Transifex did handle these perfectly on our platforms.

Cons:

The platform was sluggish beginning of 2015 now it's much seamless and fluid, really no cons in it so far, it's continuously improved.

Reasons for choosing Transifex

It was the only product at that time that can provide seamless translations and integrations, and the best one to respond to my usecases.

Too slow for daily use

Disappointing. It's looks great and offers promise but the overall execution is not where it needs to be.

Functionality

Pros:

Transifex has most features of other platforms like Phrase, Smartling, Lozalize, and Crowdin. It's interface is nice to look at. But boy is it SLOW. Clicking on something means I can go get my coffee and come back. This is true of the entire software, and it's maddening on every level. I try to use their command line tools so I don't have to use the interface, but even that is slow if you have a lot of files to work with. For instance, I push/pull source updates and translations using the CLI and it takes FOREVER.

Cons:

Slowness, lack of improvements. The customer support will answer you quickly but all they will tell you is that what you want is not possible and it's on the roadmap. I've been using their software for a number of years -- I guarantee you everything you want is on the horizon but you'll never reach it.

Reasons for choosing Transifex

Implemented this for a client request but regret it.

Vendor Response

A great UI but requires some more work

It's great in terms of freely available translation platform, might be a little rough in the edges but will certainly fulfill every standard requirement for a vast amount of projects, especially web platforms, this is definitely my go to platform when I need to establish a new open source project.

Pros:

Well, it's definitely one of the best options around, the wide range of files supported, the very intuitive design, the fact that you can open as much open source projects as you like, the admin tools, everything is just working, pretty fast.

Cons:

Lack of attention to small details, there are many loose ends, some small bugs that were not taken care of for the past few years, might need some improvement from the agile side, new features are pretty rare at least when you consider it from my workflow, all the interesting integration are pretty new, most other platforms had these kind of integrations for many years now, open source friendly yet not entirely open source, mobile interface is pretty bad, might need some additional care in terms of standard support.

Simple, effective and practical

I love it. it makes my life as developer way easier. We have products using it and products not using it yet, and the ones without transifex are always a pain to maintain translations. We have plans to move all our products to it. Also, the features they provide if you want to hire third-party translators are quite useful.

Customer support

Functionality

Pros:

Using transifex improves a lot developer experience as we don't have to deal with it on the code, and we are able to focus on building other features instead. It's quite easy to configure and has a very useful CLI, which is super helpful since we can also easily integrate in our CI/CD pipeline. The documentation is also very well built.

Cons:

It would be nice to fetch the translation files from transifex directly instead of having them all hosted in our applications. I believe this will be possible with transifex native, but I've applied to get a view on it, and am still waiting for a response since 2 months already.

Transifex review

Our engineer likes the automation piece but from the translation perspective, it is not the best tool for sure, especially with the lack of TM priority list, lack of leveraging/reusing comments when needed...

Ease of use

Functionality

Pros:

it is available on the web so linguists don't have to install anything

Cons:

Can be very slow sometimes, has very limited functionality for searching terms, no filtering options, no real TM management. Also hard to use and see all the info (context, concordance...) from a laptop (small screen). Very cumbersome tool from manager perspective as the team concept makes it hard to use more than one vendor per project per language.

Reasons for choosing Transifex

automation of source files update

Reasons for switching to Transifex

We still use Passolo for some of our products that don't need to be updated weekly and specific file types but developers wanted something with a plug-in to automate weekly updates so upper management implemented Transifex because it was reasonably priced at the time.

Transifex multiplies our impact

Transifex has been responsive to our technical asks, supportive of our translator community, and reliable in its uptime and availability, not blocking our development flow (which has been an issue with other vendors). Top marks across the board. It's easy to harp on stuff that doesn't work, but Transifex has barely even toed that line. Props to your team on providing infrastructure that Just Works.

Pros:

Transifex' mature command-line tools coupled with a robust web portal help Plex deliver a rich, localized experience for users across web, TV, and embedded platforms.

Cons:

Better support and guidance for "weird" (eg, non-English) translation scenarios would be fantastic. In many of the cases where we're "asking" for help, it would be great to have been proactively provided with platform-compatible approaches.

The main thing I dislike is that any word is counted as many times as there are languages for its project, even if it's not translated into some of them. That seriously affects our word limit.

I've noticed that the latest activity in my profile stopped updating a couple of months ago. Actually, that isn't an essential feature, but sometimes it would be useful to go there and check the latest files I've worked on.
