Core Functionality with Some Integration Hurdles
What do you like best about the product?
I use Crowdin for localization with my product teams to ensure our content can be scaled to all regions and locales we support. Crowdin solves the localization problem for us, and we've used it for years. The biggest benefit is the familiarity and that it's baked into our platform. We enjoy how Crowdin can help us properly localize into all of the world languages we support. I appreciate the AI translations which we are leveraging more and more. The app toolkit and the ability to add customizations like screenshots provide some flexibility, which is also good.
What do you dislike about the product?
In general, Crowdin feels quite technical as a tool. The user interface and overall user experience could probably be simplified a bit. Sometimes I get sent a link from a translator, and I have to click many times in order just to view what they're trying to show me. So I have to say my role, my permissions, what language I wanna translate, and all of this is just for viewing privilege. This is quite irritating. I also think there are some strong limitations in terms of Figma integration and functionality. We really need Figma to play nicely with Crowdin for developers and translators to have the full context. Right now, that is missing. All strings are in complete isolation. Unless I manually upload a photo or screenshot of a flow, there's absolutely no context. This creates extra work for me when I need to manually upload these images or add explanations.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Crowdin for localization, helping my product team scale content to all regions and locales. It's deeply integrated into our platform, offering familiarity and effective language support.
Simplified Localization and Translation Management
What do you like best about the product?
I love how Crowdin serves as an efficient translation and localization hub for our team. It effectively addresses the challenge of managing translations across 21 languages by centralizing everything in one place. The translation feature has been revolutionary, particularly because it allows translators to preview their translations in the actual interface, helping them manage content more effectively. The in-context tool is incredibly valuable as it removes the guesswork around text length variations and contextual meaning, which directly resolves one of our biggest challenges, that of UI layout breaks caused by varying text lengths across languages. This capability significantly enhances our workflow and ensures accuracy and efficiency in our localization process. Overall, these features have been critical in managing our platform's multilingual content, making Crowdin an indispensable tool for our operations.
What do you dislike about the product?
The initial setup for Crowdin was more complex than anticipated. Getting the JavaScript integration to work correctly with our Next.js application required careful coordination with our build process. Additionally, the documentation could be more specific about server-side rendering (SSR) considerations.
