Transcy: AI Language Translate

I chose $19.9. This software is very easy to use, and the function control interface is very clear. The most important thing is that I have received very high-quality service from the software team. Every time, the technical customer service team can reply to my messages in a timely manner and solve my problems efficiently. Even if some problems are more difficult, they will try their best to help me find the reasons and give reasonable and sincere suggestions. When I need to wait, I will be notified in advance, instead of making me feel annoyed because I don't know the situation. In general, this is an excellent software, and it also has a group of excellent technical service teams. Choose them with confidence.

Updated review: After the documentation of the issues during setup and soon after. Grace has really gone above and beyond to help us with our translation. We had to get a developer to implement the checkout but Grace was able to help us in other regards, it hasn't been a smooth road by any means but Grace is a huge asset to her company. One of the most frustrating experiences with any app support that I've ever experienced. Multiple issues upon installation - including checkout translation not working. Support fixed this but then had an issue with product filter and search app not being translated and then an issue with mobile users being stuck in a 404 loop resulting in our website being unusable. These issues were eventually fixed but now checkout is not being translated again and now their support says they can't fix it. Extremely frustrating

I am absolutely blown away by the amazing features and functionality of this Shopify translation app. It has completely transformed the way I do business by allowing me to effortlessly translate my store into multiple languages, reaching a wider audience than ever before.

The user interface is intuitive and easy to navigate, making the translation process a breeze. Plus, the accuracy and quality of the translations are top-notch, ensuring that my message is conveyed perfectly in any language.

What really sets this app apart from others is the excellent customer support. Anytime I have a question or issue, their team is quick to respond and provide helpful solutions.

Overall, I highly recommend this Shopify translation app to anyone looking to expand their reach and grow their business globally. It's an absolute game-changer and has earned my highest rating of 5 stars!

Hab heute binnen weiß nicht was, 30 Minuten oder so, den gesamten Jewelry Shop von Hoffnungsträger Yoga Jewelry übersetzen lassen in 5 der meist gesprochenen Sprachen in Europe. Hatte Hilfe von einer Admin namens Flora. Sie hat einen Top Job gemacht. Super schnell und sehr hilfsbereit. War ein wenig anspruchsvoll, weil das alles über den Chat lief und die Bilder dort zu klein sind, um sie zu lesen. Ich hab dann mit rechter Maustaste aber die Bilder gespeichert und in PPT kopiert. Ging dann viel besser, sie zu lesen. Vielleicht würde ein PDF helfen, was Transcy schicken könnte. ;-) Aber der Support an sonsten war echt super und ich hab schon mal reingelesen. Ich glaube, die Texte sind alle total super übersetzt. Wahnsinn, was Tech heute kann. Ich bin tief beeindruckt. Übrigens hab ich mich halt einfach nicht von den schlechten Kommentaren verrückt machen lassen. Die App läuft Hammer und super Ergebnisse!

First 2 weeks: 5 stars:
This is the best service I have ever received on an app. I was very shy with all the different translation apps, and in the end I choose this one because of the price and that you are not charged for the AI translation. I would suggest it is best to have your store base language in english, I unfortunately did not have. But the app easily allows you to manual change the languages on each page. Great app!

Update 4 months later:
Great customer service. But the app itself is lacking a lot. If you are using many theme templates, you are better off with another app. There is no clear way possible of easily managing the translations of your different theme templates. For shopify 2.0 this app is not recommended. The app is messing with internal links often. If you don't pay attention your site is probably unusable and showing a lot of 404 pages in the other language. The customer serivce is fast and good. I guess they have a hard job only working on solving problems.

Honestly? It is pretty chaotic. Yesterday I had one help person who completely messed up the languages on our second shop - though I had specified extremely clearly (twice!) what was needed. Today, someone has simply renamed our theme without letting us know, while they try to fix a bug. They don't seem to understand version control and the importance of informing the shop owner about something as basic as renaming a theme. They also have a habit, when something has clearly gone wrong, of saying that it was someone else at Transcy, not them. So i guess they don't brief each other on a job, or do a clear hand-over if someone else comes in on a new shift halfway through a job? On one help request, it seems you can easily end up with three different people and there is a lot of starting from scratch to explain the issue each time. Finally, they push and push endlessly to ask for a review. I was even asked, "Why don't you have time to write a review for us?" It's not very professional. As I say, the overall impression is that it's pretty chaotic on the help side.

I'm very frustrated with the guys here at Transcy. When it comes to SEO they are very vague in their answers. I have asked several times about why we aren't ranking very well in other languages ie spanish, dutch, swedish etc and they keep saying there's many reasons. I fully understand this however I have since found out that image alt text or hreflang is important and these are two things this app doesn't offer. I feel frustrated as I have asked numerous times about their app and it's ability to help rank in SEO within chosen countries and I feel they haven't been fully honest about the capabilities of their app. It is vitally important that we rank for other languages as we are a Spanish company, english speaking, based in Spain. So the spanish translation HAS to perform well in SEO but there are things this app doesn't offer that is essential for this to happen. Yes, it does offer content translation, page title translation & meta tag translation but it doesn't offer image alt text or hreflang translation! I just wish they were honest when asked about this as i would have been able to move to weglot a long time ago!

I uninstalled this app after using 10 months. So many issues occurred and made me so upset all the time. It was just the waste of time and money. But I would like to say thank you to Johnson. He was the only person who tried to understand the issue correctly and help me. But he was busy and not always available. Transcy should hire more advanced customer support like him. He did not hurt my feeling, while other did. But I also know it is not totally their fault. When their shift was over, the issue was transferred to the next available customer support who did not understand what really happened exactly. So I had to explain the issue to the new customer support. But she/he was gone also when her/his shift was over. And then another new support person asked me the same thing. I had to repeat and repeat the same things. Never ending. Transcy should not waste the customer's time like that. They also give the stress to their own support people with this system. If customer has the issue, somebody needs to be responsible until it is fixed. I hope they respect my opinion to improve their support system to make the customers & support team more comfortable.

Worst app I've ever used. It was a good app when I first downloaded 2 years ago. They changed their new UI and it hadn't worked properly until I contacted them.

They especially messed up my international SEO which took me years to get there. Product pages' meta descriptions are completely from different products, same for h1 and h2 either. I gave them a chance to help me but they tell me that I need to update pages manually which is ridiculous because I have over 2k products in my store. It's not possible for me to do it.

They messed up my international SEO ranks and are not willing to help me. Never ever use this app.

Response to Peter:

It's not about me getting used to the new version. Your app obviously wasn't translating properly until I contacted you. So it is NOT me, it's you. You should take responsibility instead of trying to look like you're helping me, no you are NOT.

It is mind blowing. They emailed me today and said that 'please let us know if you need further assistance'. Is this a joke? Really?

I already told you what the issue is. Why have you NOT still fixed it instead of keep emailing me and saying that 'please let us know if I need help'.

Total waste.

This is a really honest review from this AWFUL APP. I wish I read the reviews before I BOUGHT THEIR SERVICE. THE WORST PART IS THAT THE 5 STARTS REVIEWS ARE FAKE, AS THEY ASK AND PRESSURE PEOPLE TO WRITE THEIR REVIEWS RIGHT AWAY AFTER PURCHASING.

THEY ALSO HIRE PEOPLE TO LEAVE GOOD REVIEWS:

They are unprofessional their translation is the worst. It changes and sync and does whatever it wants and all your hard-working translations get undone. You have to keep asking them to amend the translation as it gets untranslated.

Their customer service does not even know how to use the app themselves. They sometimes take ages to reply or keep passing the request to one another.

Please, make sure your head the reviews before purchasing with them. It is not worth anybody's money or time. They have increased their prices massively lately... apparently to give a better experience. LET ME TELL YOU IT HAS GOTTEN WORSE AND WORSE AND WORSE.... READ ALL REVIEWS BEFORE PLACING YOUR ORDER.

IT IS THE WORST APP ON SHOPIFY. THEY WILL MISLEAD YOU TO THINK IT IS YOU THAT IS MAKING THE CHANGES AND GASLIGHT YOU. PLEASE BE CAREFUL. I HAVE PHOTOS/SCREENSHOTS OF HOW THEY ARE UNTRANSLATING OUR WEBSITE. AWFUL AND VERY DRAINGING EXPERIENCE.
