There are popups asking for feedback every time you translate words, phrases or sentences. When translating a document not everything is translated so you have to go back and copy/paste what did not translate into the optional translating section. Tech Support is very slow in responding can take up to 72 hours or longer so you work has to hold until someone responds. Fortunately, I don't have to use this application on a daily basis.

The program can translate text somewhat reliably. The company makes claims that it will 'remember' word pairings for the future, however this is almost never actually the case. After a word bank of nearly 500,000 word pairings saved into the program, almost never did the translation actually automatically translate in accordance with the saved pairing. The only times it did 'remember' a specific saved-translation, is when the entire sentence was identical. Adding a "but" or "however" anywhere in a sentence, or a clause following the identical portion of the sentence, would cause the translation to default back to the original and not the saved word-paring. Any sort of italics, bolded words, underlines, or font size discrepancies will also usually ruin any previously saved word pairings. With one exception. Saving a specific sentence pairing in italics or a different font size, might apply that font size and italics to any exact, and only exact, replication of the sentence, regardless of the font size or lack of italics in the text you are now trying to translate. Sentences (and often paragraphs) in quotation marks, such as quotes, are often broken in half, causing the the halves to translate separately. This causes a single sentence to be translated as two separate sentences, almost always yielding broken results. Further, for whatever reason, the program struggles to recognize to which part of a sentence the quotation mark applies, causing the non-quoted portion to be translated as a half-sentence in quotations. Even saving single words to the 'memory' will almost never cause the saved translation of those words repeated in future translations unless the new text is translating only that single word and nothing else. If the word is used in a sentence, no matter how simple, you will get the original translation of the word in the sentence, not the translation you have saved. Overall, this program only works if you wish to translate multiple, 100% identical sentences several times. Any slight variation to the sentence, be it font, length, bold or underline, or quotation, will ruin any translation you have saved to the 'memory'. A simple fix which could turn this into a 4-star review would be to add a function whereby saving a single word (a translation of a single word) will automatically apply that saved translation to all future instances of the word. Even better would be '2 or 3 word combinations' to help differentiate between instances where the same word can be translated differently depending on context. As-is, the program has a default translation for words that it will always apply unless the sentence exactly matches a previously saved sentence.

Thank you for your in depth review. The issue with inserting a single word from a memory is that many languages, like Spanish, French and German, use gender (las, los, der, das, etc...) and you have to correctly identify and change gender when you change a term. Matches start at 70%, so in some cases you do need to change a few words, the software won't change them for you. We're pushing AI as far as it can go, however, machine translation will always require human editing to produce perfect translations. If you want to discuss more or see if there are ways to use the software better please contact us at [email protected] and we'd be happy to set up a call.
