Easy Localization with Seamless Integration

I really appreciate how the Phrase Localization Platform simplifies the process of localization for our app. It significantly streamlines our workflows, making tasks quicker and more efficient.

This usability, combined with the fact that it offers a more straightforward workflow than our previous tool, Google Sheets, makes it a valuable asset. Overall, my experience with the Phrase Localization Platform has been highly positive, and I am very likely to recommend it to others, as evidenced by my high recommendation rating.

Intuitive, but with File Issues and High Cost
What do you like best about the product?
I love how intuitive the Phrase Localization Platform is, as it allows us to manage our projects efficiently and have a clear view of their status. The ease of use has really made our lives easier. I greatly value how it optimizes costs and ensures consistency in the quality of translations. Additionally, the customer service team is very quick to resolve issues, which is invaluable when problems arise. The initial setup was also quite simple, making the transition to using the platform seamless. Despite some challenges, I am so satisfied with its features that I give it a rating of 10 out of 10 in terms of the likelihood of recommending it to a friend or colleague.
What do you dislike about the product?
Multilingual files often present problems, forcing us to spend a lot of time uploading them. Sometimes we give up and leave them as regular files due to errors when uploading them. We also face difficulties downloading them because of errors in the tags. There are many global issues that complicate our operations. There used to be an app that worked well on mobile, but now it no longer works. Additionally, if there is no internet connection, the tool cannot be used, which is a major inconvenience. Finally, it is a very expensive tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The Phrase Localization Platform optimizes costs, ensures consistency in the quality of translations, and facilitates control and an overview of the status of projects.
Intuitive and User-Friendly Localization Platform
What do you like best about the product?
It is quite intuitive to use this software. Most of the localization platforms look similar but there are some tools that I find it inconvenient to use. Phrase isn’t the case.I could see the doc when the revision are applied, QA was easy and TM was visible.
What do you dislike about the product?
I didn’t find anything I dislike. It is easy and comfortable to work on translations on Phrase.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I often use Phrase and easily complete my tasks. The layout is easy to track and the function buttons are easy to understand.
Great overall but Need quick non-file-upload translation & text recognition
What do you like best about the product?
Light load on PC. Very easy-to-understand UI. Good functions & services, including built-in MT. Great & timely customer service.
What do you dislike about the product?
Always have to upload files - it'd be great if you could directly type in source texts for quick translation. It'd be even more wonderful if Phrase could recognise texts from PDF or image files.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a translator, it saves me lots of time and effort building my own term/phrase base. No need to look up/search past translation works for reference. The word/character count function is particularly useful, especially for translating Excel or PowerPoint files, as I charge my clients based on word/character counts and it saves lots of time to create invoices.
Phrase fits well for our needs, but some features lack better structure
What do you like best about the product?
Phrase successfully separates strings and their translations, with easy management of the multiple languages required. We use it daily for new or updated translations. Customer support was agile and assertive when I needed to recover some translations I had mistakenly deleted.
What do you dislike about the product?
The interface for translators could benefit from better approaches. There is no way to batch upload screenshots to contextualize translators better. I'm not sure if there is a way to integrate Figma for this. Our product lacks real-time integration, and we have to upload new translations manually; however, I'm not fully aware of the explanation behind this.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Phrase removed the AI translation suggestions for our plan. For me, not having at least a small amount of it and showing how an upgrade for this could have benefits, the platform won't have the workers asking for the upgrade. This can also apply for other types of use/integration we don't even know exist or how we could plan to implement.
Empowers Collaboration Across Teams, But Room for Refinement
What do you like best about the product?
It allowed us to move from a completely antiquated workflow for translation and term management to use a collaborative tool than many roles within the company can use. This also meant that we could get "non technical" people involved in the process, which allowed Product Management to better work together and keep the workload transparent. It is now a tool we use daily. It also took minimal time to set up and get started, which was why we tried it in the first place.
What do you dislike about the product?
Probably because of the complexity of what the tool can do, automate and configure finding your way into using the software comes with a bit of a learning curve. To pick out one example, when the list of keys (in Phrase Strings) on the right side of the screen is filtered, you don't easily see that which can lead to the user thinking a key is not there, when in fact it is just hidden from view. In general, a "decluttering" of the UI for what you need for daily use of the tool would be appreciated in all areas of the product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have multiple translators contributing to the localization and previously had no tool for transparent collaboration. This has completely changed since we introduced Phrase.
Comprehensive Language Support, But Needs Memory Fixes
What do you like best about the product?
I love that the Phrase Localization Platform supports all languages, allowing me to localize UI strings into 50 different languages effectively. This feature greatly enhances the platform's versatility and scalability, making it incredibly valuable for projects requiring extensive linguistic coverage.
What do you dislike about the product?
I am frustrated that the Translation Memory in Phrase Localization Platform cannot be set to zero. There were segments added by mistake, and I am unable to revoke or remove them. This limitation makes it challenging to manage translations accurately and can lead to clutter or errors accumulating over time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use the Phrase Localization Platform to localize UI strings into 50 languages, ensuring broad language support. However, setting Translation Memory to zero isn't possible, leading to accidental segment additions that can't be revoked.
Phrase Review
What do you like best about the product?
Setting up the project was relatively straightforward, and I found the user management features to be quite effective.
What do you dislike about the product?
- Absence of the desktop client for translation edit (CAT tool).
- Subscription word count limits counts also perfect matches
- Pretty expensive considering there is no desktop CAT tool included.
- Usage of customized XLIFF format makes it impossible to edit files in other CAT tools.
- Subscription word count limits counts also perfect matches

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
