agree  ACCURATE77: What came to my mind first after seeing the context was the word "easier," perhaps because it is the one more used when talking about technology in the U.S.A.; however, convenient is quite appropriate as well.ou included in the sentence

Explanation:
I agree with your answers guys, and I don't want to be rude, but don't you think that Raquel should hire a translator and let us do the job? I mean, one thing is to have a question (even an easy one) or seek the colleagues' help when a sentence elludes us but I have received at least ten elementary questions from this asker in the last hour... I feel the asker is just pasting the answers together and I wonder... But maybe it's just me and this forum is intended for this use, too. If this is the case, scratch the comment and let me know if I'm off line here. Thanks

agree  ACCURATE77: If what you say about this non-translator asker doing what you say, then you are right. As far as I have understood, this forum mostly is for member translators helping other translators, and to help students answer one question once in a while.
48 mins
  -> the questions were things like: las máquinas hacen el trabajo, la tecnología está presente, las máquinas ahorran dinero, realizar un trabajo... And there is no asker profile to access

agree  Maria-Jose Pastor: Im with you 100%, if in fact she is a translator, she is over her head on this one and should have refused the job.
3 hrs
  -> Dear MJPastor: If someone is in over her head with these questions, I want to believe she is not a translator! Please!
