Home » Compare Comparing Lilt and MultiTrans Prism Freelance Which software is better? Here is a rundown of features and reviews to help you make your decision. | |  |  | | Name | Lilt | MultiTrans Prism Freelance | | Review breakdown | | | | Most helpful review | Worst CAT tool I have ever tested This platform is not compatible with complex documents with tags, it is time-consuming and tedious to use, if you think consistency and typography is important in your work.
It is sometimes plainly absurd, why on earth would I like the cursor to jump to the end of the segment when I use a non-breaking space in the middle of a segment?
Be careful if you are asked to work on Lilt at half-price because it will take twice the time to work on it, while training their awful MT output and being super slow.
The "TM" does not populate perfect matches and is not case sensitive (really) you have to retype it with there predictive output which is not the same each time. Here it is for the consistency.
It's not easily compatible with basic QA check tools.
Oh, and if you delete a file, the TM gets deleted as well, because who needs to keep a TM after the file is translated, am I right ?22 out of 22 found this review helpful.

You can work directly on Ms Word and other files so it's really helpful. You can align bilingual texts for TM also. I did not experienced any crash too. Only thing, I think it's the most expensive on the market.1 out of 1 found this review helpful.
