Provides high-quality translations, understanding nuances and context well and provides API to automate translations
We translate a lot of content into Spanish. DeepL is set up for other languages like English and maybe others with different country variations, like British English or American English. With Spanish, there's only a general Spanish. However, Spanish can be very different depending on the country. My impression of DeepL is that they try to have standard, plain Spanish. But I would like the option of choosing different Spanish because Spanish from Spain, especially, is quite different from Latin American Spanish. In future releases, I would like to see an option for saving previous translations. For example, other translators, like Google Translate, save your past searches, and that might be something useful.

Centralized localization has improved collaboration and now delivers consistent multilingual releases
After using Phrase Localization Platform, I feel that a few improvements could be made, such as creating a more intuitive UI for new users, especially regarding project setup and workflow configuration. Faster performance when handling large translation projects for multiple integrations is required. I also believe improvements in reporting and analytics dashboards with more customizable insights would be beneficial. Additionally, better AI-powered translation suggestions with strong contextual awareness are needed. More flexible role-based permissions, approval workflows, and enhanced in-platform collaboration features such as threaded discussions and review history would be helpful. Improvements in Translation Memory search and duplicate detection are necessary, as well as more guided onboarding tutorials for our enterprise teams. I think that easier troubleshooting for failed syncs and CI/CD integration issues is required, along with more flexible role-based permissions and approval workflows.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It makes our work faster and more efficient, freeing up time for more complex tasks. The basic translation is done by DeepL, allowing us to focus on other details. The main improvement is in speed and efficiency."
"Phrase Localization Platform is a very straightforward platform, and it is very good because it is on cloud, and there is a free membership, so you do not necessarily have to pay for the basic functions, and I am really comfortable using it."
"Phrase Localization Platform has positively impacted my work because it has helped me get more work; people always ask if I work on Phrase or Trados."
"Phrase Localization Platform has positively impacted my organization, particularly in terms of improving localization efficiency, reducing manual efforts, and increasing the overall quality and consistency of multilingual releases."
"Phrase Localization Platform has positively impacted my organization by being simple to use and helping to speed up my work."
"Since we switched to Phrase Localization Platform, learning is simpler and more gradual, allowing students to have good foundations, even quite solid foundations, before they can take on more complete tools."
"Phrase Localization Platform has positively impacted my organization as it is a centralized platform where one of my clients uses it to handle all their vendors' files with just one platform, making it a unique and useful point to use."
"My advice to those who are considering using Phrase Localization Platform is to go for it if it's work with large volumes, books, games, or anything that will require consistency from A to Z, since with the glossary and the sentence-by-sentence tracking, it's much easier to find your way around."
"Phrase Localization Platform has had a positive impact mainly by making our localization processes more efficient and scalable."
 

Cons

"In future releases, I would like to see an option for saving previous translations. For example, other translators like Google Translate, save your past searches, and that might be something useful."
"Since Phrase Localization Platform is quite simple and easy to use, it may lack some features that other tools could offer, so depending on the needs, it could end up being a bit limited."
"With large translation projects, there were some problems because the input was too large sometimes and it kind of delayed the whole process."
"Phrase Localization Platform is sometimes not stable for me during work since I work on the online platform; it can be fast at times but not always."
"Phrase Localization Platform has positively impacted my work and my clients, but from what I know, they are not fully happy about some features, especially regarding the AI translations because for Polish, which is my target language, they turned out to be of low quality."
"I choose nine because I think it needs to be implemented; some repetitive tasks can be easily automated with AI."
"Unfortunately, Phrase Localization Platform does not provide any preview of the string in context."
"I would improve Phrase Localization Platform by enhancing the way reporting is handled, automation, and troubleshooting."
"Phrase Localization Platform has not positively impacted my organization or my freelance work."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution offers a fair price. If you're a casual user, you might not want to pay for it, so it's good to have the free version. The free version is good enough for what a casual user would need. But definitely, the prices are fair for this tool."
