Complexity of Phrase and lack of support prevented full adoption of the tool

“We tested Phrase for seven months but, it was a bit complicated at first because I think certainly we didn't have the proper help to be embodied completely into the solution.”

No hidden costs
Keep costs under control as translation volumes increase

We charge for hosted keys in the base language, not for words translated. That means you can translate one key in as many languages as you like without incurring extra costs, making it cheaper to expand to different language-speaking regions.

Further lower costs with Lokalise:

Bundle similar translations into one task. Lokalise groups similar keys across platforms (iOS, Android, web, etc) into a single translation task, reducing translation costs.
Choose a scalable pricing structure. Lokalise charges for one hosted base language key regardless of the number of translations.

Manual work in Phrase is frustrating “It's frustrating that during GitHub sync imports (which we use for our base language, English) deletions aren't accounted for, so we have to manually go into Phrase every time to delete keys.”

Phrase is complex “I believe it could be simplified, both the UI and the way to integrate it in code.”
