Home » Compare Comparing Smartcat and Lilt Which software is better? Here is a rundown of features and reviews to help you make your decision. | |  |  | | Name | Smartcat | Lilt | | Review breakdown | | | | Most helpful review | Great tool. Very comfort and helpful I used this tool above year and be cool with it. Program is constant in progress and getting better. I'm using it for freelance translation and can tell that this tool easy in use and have a lot of free helpful option. Machine translation is paid, but not expansive. Quality of this translation is not excellent, but, hey, where did you see great machine translation? It's just a help instrument, and it's more better Google translate(for example). I really recommend SmartCat. Just try!10 out of 13 found this review helpful.
Read more reviews → | Worst CAT tool I have ever tested This platform is not compatible with complex documents with tags, it is time-consuming and tedious to use, if you think consistency and typography is important in your work.
It is sometimes plainly absurd, why on earth would I like the cursor to jump to the end of the segment when I use a non-breaking space in the middle of a segment?
Be careful if you are asked to work on Lilt at half-price because it will take twice the time to work on it, while training their awful MT output and being super slow.
The "TM" does not populate perfect matches and is not case sensitive (really) you have to retype it with there predictive output which is not the same each time. Here it is for the consistency.
It's not easily compatible with basic QA check tools.
Oh, and if you delete a file, the TM gets deleted as well, because who needs to keep a TM after the file is translated, am I right ?21 out of 21 found this review helpful.
