    We have used Crowdin to manage translations of our software and our whitepaper. Now we're looking at translating our documentation too.

    We crowd sourced the translations to 30+ languages by nearly 100 translators so far.

    Thanks to the GitHub integration, our open-source software codebase is continuously synchronized with our Crowdin project across versions.

    Finally, we have leveraged the Webhok and Crowdin APIs to build a fine-grained integration with our product, which will allow us to further gamify and incentivize translations.

    Pros

    Good UX, excellent support, great integration capabilities, and supports all kinds of translation workflows.

    Cons

    Because it's so powerful, it has a lot of settings that can be intimidating to administrate.

    Reviewed on 2024/03/29

    Pros

    Ease of use.
    Can be "branded".
    API, upon release of the site we can just upload files to Crowdin, and fetch the latest translations.

    Cons

    The pricing is actually expensive for us. And yet we still have a plan that hasn't existed for years. We have community translators that translates for free. But it's not even a hundred strings per year. And for that, the price is quite expensive.

    Crowdin is a high quality product with many good and helpful features. We used it in a former project as crowd translation tool for our app and it worked very well. At the moment our main project only has very basic requirements and we don't need many features anymore.

    Pros

    1. It's easy to invite colleagues, customers and professional translaters to translate content.
    2. Using the crowdin cli tool to upload and update translations in our code base.
    3. Create branches which reflect code branches.

    Cons

    Over the years and the additional features crowdin got more and more expensive although we have a very basic workflow:
    1 private translator, just translation of every string in 1-2 languages, upload and download per cli tool. Currently we are thinking about not using Crowdin anymore - although we like Crowdin very much.

    My overall experience with Crowdin is very positive. It offers what I need most of the time, and very seldom do I feel that I need more features. The UI/UX is great, and project management is fantastic.

    Pros

    Crowdin is an incredibly smooth and user friendly tool that streamlines the translation process for freelance translators.

    Cons

    Due to its user friendly nature, it might lack some of the more advanced features that more advanced CAT tools have. Also, the report feature is lacking functionality, which means it becomes rather cumbersome to get statistics for invoice creation.
