Phrase is awesome! It makes my job so much easier. I can get more done and still deliver quality.
What do you like best about the product?
Using the Phrase Localization Platform allows me to benefit from a CAT tool that is extremely easy to use, implementing projects is a breeze and every time I reach out to customer support, I get a reply within only a few hours, which is great in an environment where time is of the essence.
I use Phrase every day, it's my main tool for work as a translator. The many features it has allows me to do everything and anything I want. It's also very easy to integrate when I need to set up a fellow translator in the system or if I have a huge project going.
I couldn't live without Phrase.

What do you dislike about the product?
There aren't too many downsides to using Phrase. The only thing is you really need to make sure to check your settings for AI MTUs so that you don't run out. Help from the AI is really useful but if you rely on it too much, it can become a problem.
While Phrase has changed it's AI MTUs settings so that they get used up quickly if you don't look into your settings, the AI does a tremendous job. It's just a matter of tweaking your settings accordingly.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The main issue when you're a translator is time. How can I translate as many words per day as I can and still provide high-end work that will allow me to keep the clients I have and get new ones referred to me? While one usually can produce around 1,500-2,000 words per day, with Phrase you can basically double that workload. This in turn allows you to accept more work and be more profitable as a business. Plus the quality level doesn't go down, which is usually the case when you take on more work and don't benefit from good tools.
All has been great, with minor fixes

Excellent Translation Platform
What do you like best about the product?
I like the ease of use and intuitive design of the platform.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish, when looking at a project, you could see at a glance the name of the translator (or QA person) for a given job.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The platform makes it easy to assign translators and QA checkers to jobs, and it is also super easy to check the status of these jobs. This saves me a lot of time. Before we were using spreadsheets to send translations, which is cumbersome, and also involves time in creating the document itself.
The easiest programme for translator to use
What do you like best about the product?
TM, visual design, tools like splitting apart or joining segments together

Honestly, so far there is nothing that I do not like about Phrase

It is a very good CAT tool online that avoids downloading file offline
Great features and easy to use
What do you like best about the product?
After using several different translation/localization/review tools for over 15 years, Phrase is my favorite. I like the easy access to some tools like concordance search, the CAT tool information on the right side of the screen (which allows me to see the glossary terms and previous translations very quickly), and the filter / search & replace functions, which work as soon as I type a word and let me make any changes right there. The navigation is also excellent -- I can always continue where I left off, and jump to any segment whenever I need.
The workflow is also very straightforward, which makes it easy to work with a team. Overall, I think it has the best features of some 'heavier' desktop tools, with the speed and convenience of a cloud-based solution where everything is always up to date.
I started using it as a team leader a few months ago, and it didn't disappoint, either... I can create and manage projects & tasks easily, as well as update TM's and term bases; the analysis tool can get as detailed as I need it to be; and the price is very competitive, too.
I am very happy with Phrase, and look forward to continue using it for a long time. Keep up the good work!

What do you dislike about the product?
I started using Phrase TMS a few months ago, and the pricing/usage structure has been difficult to understand. It's easy to reach the limits of managed words and MT use, and the higher tiers are much more expensive than what I need at the moment. Some in-between options or easier top-ups would be good (and it would be even better to have a pricing structure similar to what it was in the past, where I didn't have to worry about usage limits).
As for the localization platform, one of the only things that have felt 'complicated' or 'not as good as in other tools' is the whay tags are handled -- they are usually in the incorrect order in pre-translated content, and there are always issues with spacing around the tags. I like how the keyboard shortcut works to insert the next tag automatically, but it would be easier if the tags appeared in the right order / with the right spacing from the beginning when the content is pre-translated or copied from the source.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's very easy to create a new job/task with almost any kind of file, translate it on Phrase, and download the translated file in the same format & with the same layout as the original. From the translator's perspective, it's easy to work with a team and keep consistency by leveraging the TM, CAT suggestions, term bases, etc.
A very well-organized and easy-to-use Platform

The Phrase Localization Platform is very organized, providing users with an excellent experience when searching for assigned tasks or any other information. The Platform is very user friendly and easy to use, requiring minimal or no assistance to complete tasks without any issues.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think that the Platform could automatically save the Translation Memory, making it easier to access and use it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Having everything I need in one hub is very convenient, as it eliminates the need to use multiple platforms for a single job.
Intuitive interface & powerful functionality

Overall, it’s the most efficient tool I worked with

It's easy to use and navigate. I find the editor and TMS efficient in completing my tasks as a linguist and PM in your everyday work. I also like the number of features and the UI is clean and light.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes I experienced minor glitches and after updates some UI elements don't work properly. I'd love to see more filtering options (e.g. select custom ranges etc.) and also redesigned approach to collaborative work for teams inside one organisation – the current commenting feature is quite limited.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This platfor compared to competitors is faster and more convenient in all regards. I really like the possibility of keeping the consistency to ensure the highest level of quality.
