Elegant, reliable, good ROI for teams
What do you like best about the product?
Memsource is way more efficient than traditional, expensive desktop software. I usually have new translators up & running in 3-4 hours. Everyone is on the same platform. The system works reliably: virtually no downtimes, no data silos / vendor lock-in. Offline clients are available for OS X, Windows and Linux. Things just work. Clean interface, no info overload. Great support - fast, friendly, competent.
What do you dislike about the product?
Memsource Editions (currently there are ten) are a bit confusing. Out-of-the-box support for WordPress and other popular CMS would be great.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I run a small technical writing and translation agency, working with about a dozen freelance translators. Memsource helps us translate documents (web content, product manuals, brochures, ads, promos, whitepapers, video subtitles and more) for major clients in the IT, MI and AV industries.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Get a test account, set up a test project, throw in every file format you expect to work with. Make sure your users learn keyboard shortcuts and understand tags. Make them use the QA feature. Make sure your projects are well-structured (by product, department, whatever works for you). Moving documents to other projects is doable, but should probably be avoided.
Since early years, I have been using Memsource
What do you like best about the product?
Unlike other complicated CAT took, Memsource is very simple to use (you need only 30 minutes to get used to). In addition, a cloud translation system is very nice because you can work at home, in office, and even when you are somewhere on a business trip. Memsource is relatively less expensive as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is almost nothing I dislike Memsource. However, if I was forced to mention, then Memsource would preferably improve on a project management function.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
When we grew, we had a problem of not being able to manage our large volume of translation jobs. We needed a system across the organization rather than an individually-installed desktop CAT tool in order to share translation data in a translation memory. Memsource solved this problem in a matter of minute!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I strongly recommend Memsource to every user. I am sure it is easy to use because Memsource Editor gets rid of unnecessary functions unlike other CAT tools.
Preferrable CAT tool for APriori Translation Company
What do you like best about the product?
Very flexible in terms of monthly number of licenses, online and offline editing modes, very customizable, convenient glossary management, smart pre-translation, regularly added new features
What do you dislike about the product?
Limited number of linguists per license
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We integrated Memsource at APriori five years ago, and immediately felt the benefits: it is especially valuable for large projects involving a few linguists working simultaneously. Its implementation resulted in faster turnaround, better terminology and style consistency and quality assurance.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Very user-friendly even for linguists who never used TM tools before.
