Smartcat combines translation automation technologies with communication capabilities to help users not only automate workflows but also find needed freelance specialists.
Originally a product of ABBYY, Smartcat became an independent product, and company, in 2016.
MemoQ is especially useful when working in tandem with established translation agencies. The network access is one of the best and allows users to collaborate in projects easily. I would recommend memoQ in that manner, as I have always found it very intuitive and easy to use. All functionalities provided are a must for translators in the industry.
Selection of multiple segments is not possible (you can select multiple segments that are following each other by holding down the shift key but not randomly selected segments by holding the Ctrl key or so).
Make it easier to use filter configurations of a file already used in a project when adding a new file of the same type.
I believe memoQ is the best of these 3 tools. It has soo much functionality. I wish I could use it for all my projects, but we have a lot of clients that want to use either Memsource or SDL Trados Studio. As for the Web Editor, our translators seem to prefer Memsource over memoQ, so this might be something memoQ can improve in the future.
We also tried Memsource but it was lacking in terms of overall user experience and ease of use. Assigning projects in SmartCAT is a much more intuitive experience, plus it has all these other additional features that are absent from Memsource (like payment solution for freelancers). On top of that, the SmartCAT is absolutely free to use.
