Mohamed . XTM Cloud and its online editor is the worst translation tool in the market, and I have no clue really why many LSPs and MLVs are forcing translator to use this tool. The tool is very slow, no mass search and replace through multiple files, plus it times out really fast, and you have to scroll down to get new segments. Concordance search is very slow, QA is awful and it freezes up many times. I have stopped working with 2 clients because they are forcing me to use this inefficient tool.

Very useful and user-friendly online CAT tool
Review by
Jerzy Jeczalik (X) . I have been using XTM Cloud Since 2010 and I am very happy with it. The tool is very cost-effective due to low monthly payments and the interface is easy to use and intuitive to learn. If I do need any additional help, I find the XTM support team to be very attentive and helpful. All common file formats are supported and even some of the more difficult formats such as InDesign are processed without any issues. XTM allows me to focus on translation rather that the technical aspects of software maintenance and file engineering, I would recommend it to all of my colleagues and peers.

Constantly evolving
Review by
Werdna . I once worked on some projects where the client specifically requested the use of XTM Cloud. At that time, my impression of this tool was underwhelming at best.
More than a year later, XTM Cloud has changed considerably; I was impressed how the developers were dedicated to constantly improving their product. Some of the big names in the industry could learn a thing or two from them.
Since XTM Cloud is entirely Internet-based (no locally installed client is required, other than a compatible Internet browser), the mobility and portability of this system is incomparable. Compared to Trados (which requires a locally installed license, and also installs Nalpeiron DRM snooper on your computer to enforce the license agreement), XTM is ideal for translators who must work on client's sites a lot.
That said, XTM Cloud still needs to overcome the technological challenges that are inherent in cloud computing (bandwidth limitation, server maintenance, memory issues imposed by web browsers, etc.). These used to be XTM's biggest weakness. More than a year later, things got a lot better; but still these continue to be an issue.
If the developers of XTM Cloud can meet and overcome these challenges, they will have a stellar product on their hands. And given their dedication, I feel that they just might do that.

Useful tool
Review by
MT-Sophie . This system is easy to work on as it's very intuitive. It makes some project management steps easier and faster, and it is very easy to learn for translators. There are some occasional issues to fix but the Support team is very responsive, efficient and nice.

Great for access on the go and from various locations!
Review by
AgWa . I have been working with XTM for almost a year now, mainly using it for project management and checking. I find the tool very easy to use and not too fussy. The thing I most enjoy about it is that it is cloud based, which means that I can access it on the go and from various locations. Having used different CAT tools in the past I must admit that XTM has the best support staff I have ever come across.
