I used it often in the past and am interested in using it again. I have been a translator for 24 years and I think that Wordfast in general is infinitely more user friendly than Trados. There is virtually no support for an out-of-date Trados product (in my case 2017) that supposedly never expires. Not the case with Wordfast. It is also user friendly. I love using it for projects especially for which I create the TM but also if there is a TM. Reminds me of the olden days of translation. It seems uncluttered. I also love their support. When Trados states that the license never expires, that is very misleading. I was able to contact Wordfast for support ten years since the purchase of my last upgrade without jumping through a bunch of hoops and community forums, unlike Trados. Sorry if my post is confusing, but I also like the Wordfast Anywhere option. It is like a mini-Wordfast. No such option that I know of exists with Trados, if one cannot afford to upgrade at the moment. > > **Cons**: There is nothing I dislike. Many agencies require use of Trados, so that is the only reason I can think of to ever purchase Trados all over again. > > Absolutely wonderful. I did not find an entry for Wordfast Anywhere, but that used to be my favorite CAT tool a long time ago. ----- ### "Simple tool, quite expensive for what it offers" — 2.0/5 > **Willem** | *23 January 2025* | Translation & Localization | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: The speed is good,but that's about everything I can think of. > > **Cons**: It's a simple and limited tool: the features are very limited (certainly if compared to memoQ), hardly any compatibility. Repetitions are not properly processed and need double handling. > > I need it because one of my biggest clients uses Wordfast, but the efficiency and performance compared to memoQ is very low. ----- ### "My main platform" — 4.0/5 > **Przemek** | *15 June 2022* | Translation & Localization | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Wordfast Pro has amazing customer service. They literally respond with ready-to-implement solutions within minutes. It works with all file types. > > **Cons**: The user interface (As fast as colours are concerned) feels somewhat antiquated. Some options which apply to a file within a project are available from the project perspective only. Some other options (for example to export Trados return package) are available only upon the closure of a project which feels somewhat strange as all the other options are available from the main project window). The app offers a plethora of options (even local OCR) and I feel that new functions have been continuously added over time and that's why sometimes their location feels illogical. > > Wordfast Pro is my main CAT app which Have been literally using on a daily basis. It is the only one that natively runs on a Mac and that's the reason that I initially invested in it. App is compatible with Trados and most (if not all) file formats which are used in the translation industry. I have a ton of projects, all my TM and term bases and Wordfast manages all of that for me. ----- ### "A perfectly serviceable CAT tool" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *16 July 2019* | Translation & Localization | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: Once the quirks are understood, the program is fairly predictable and robust. It serves to help us maintain consistency and lower costs when feasible on large, repeated translation projects. > > **Cons**: The version we use lacks some of the modern add ons that are now offered by the competitive products. For example, we needed to write our own script for working with JSON files, which can be natively handled by other CAT tools without any special customization. > > A colleague of mine who has worked with other CAT tools described WF Pro as a pasta maker--you need to keep putting things in, let it churn, and then it spits other things out. It takes a while to learn which specific rules are important to WF, otherwise it will return errors and hold the project hostage. At different stages of the process, file naming conventions matter. At other stages, the location of the files matter. It takes a lot of trial and error in the beginning to work through these quirks, but like any CAT tool, the more time you put into learning it, the better off you'll be, as we have found these quirks to at least be consistent. ----- ### "Good choice of CAT tool\!" — 5.0/5 > **Catharine** | *16 February 2019* | Translation & Localization | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Wordfast Pro is one of the only Mac-compatible CAT tools on the market. It is regularly updated and good value for money in terms of the gain of time for productivity. There are Facebook and Yahoo user groups to help you with any queries you might have (as well as a hotline, although I've rarely had to use it), and a demo version if you want to try WFP out for free first. > > **Cons**: Some compatibility problems when working with colleagues or agencies who use different CAT tools. But in my case this is the exception rather than the norm. On starting I generally need to launch it at least twice (if not more) for it start without crashing. > > I started out using Wordfast Pro 3 in 2010, and was pretty satisfied, and have now moved on to WFP 5 which is even better in my opinion. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.il/software/159255/wordfast-pro?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.il/software/159255/wordfast-pro) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
