MemoQ is an actively developed CAT tool, unlike DJV.
But... MemoQ uses a subscription model and they ask for payment every year. That is not true of DJV and you can still pay for Trados

The only thing I still use of DVX3 is the alignment tool. Unfortunately, I cannot depend on them as my main CAT tool anymore. I enjoyed working in DVX3 while it lasted.
I believe it will be released... eventually. However, by that time most of their loyal customers will have lost faith in the product. Translation is a fast-moving business and CAT tool
Hi Anton,
BSOD crashes do not happen so often (have not happened for months on my desktop), but the problem is that Déjà vu X3 (and previous versions for that matter) are designed to

The problem was finally solved... after 8 days. 8 days to reset a license, which should normally take a minute.
I resent the license codes at least 2 times, as for some rea
I have one Pro and one Workgroup license to Deja vu X3. Currently, when I try to use any of those licenses Deja vu X3 informs me that 'You Have Exceeded Your Allowed Activation Count'.

Hi Everyone!
Just wanted to chime in a say that the next build of Déjà vu X3 will most probably include the much requested feature to mark recognized terms in the source segment.
Déjà vu X3 is the lightest, quickest, most stable CAT tool out there. It often pioneers cutting edge technology, which is then implemented in less successful form by SDL and Kilgray. If

For what it is worth, I still feel Deja vu X3 works as a tool "created for translators by a translator". My only gripe in this respect would be that it does not highlight recognized terms,
