Hi everyone,

If you search google or ProZ's software comparison tool for the best CAT tool, smartCAT appears to be the clear winner.

Here's the link: https://www.proz.com/software-comparison-tool?sort=most_reviewed

I had a quick look at the web-based CAT solution and didn't really understand why it received so many great reviews. What do you guys think, is smartCAT really that good? Would be interesting to hear your feedback.

Wishing you all a great weekend ahead

You should… Oct 18, 2019

…ask the reviewers why they rate SmartCat so high. However, I would, eh, hesitate to trust a rating from someone who (apparently claiming to be a translator) writes in such a high-style English as:

… it's more better Google translate(for example).

Pick any of these!
Probably SmartCat is less worse than no tool at all.
