DV wins because a) it supports more common formats, b) it does not have any technical glitches (not that I know of - so, that\'s good enough for me), c) it is less time-consuming in setting up and managing a project (Trados is very slow!!!!) and d)its glossary functions are much more user-friendly (setting up a termbase in DV is really easy and straightforward - and so is adding new terms!).



So, spread the word and give DV a fair chance. ▲ Collapse
