In your opinion, what is a good alternative to Google Cloud Translation API for SDL Trados Studio 2019? | | | Elena Feriani Italy Local time: 00:42 Member French to Italian + ... | Marina Steinbach United States Local time: 18:42 Member (2011) English to German TOPIC STARTER Hi Elena! Thank you for your support. | Aug 27, 2020 |
Hi Elena! Thank you for your support. I bought my license for SDL Trados Studio 2019 Freelance Plus in 2018. I tried to use the SDL Language Cloud, but I receive the following message: Your subscription is expired - Learn more When I click on 'Learn more', I only see the following message: Welcome to SDL Language Cloud Get the best translation results by using our service Well, that didn't really get me the best translation results... After that, I tried to use the SDL Machine Translation Cloud Provider. I selected the authentication type 'Studio Credentials - SDL Language Cloud' and the program confirms that I am signed in as '[email protected]'. I click on 'OK' and then the program shows a 'Sign In' button again. That's it. Any idea what I am doing wrong or can try next? | | |

Its 25 USD per month. https://www.modernmt.com/translators/ That's 250 $ a year! Hmm... I think I really am a penny-pincher. I don't understand what they are comparing in this thread. Well, I did write an email to SDL Sales about this yesterday. I am curious if they have anything to offer. So far they have not responded...

Doing side-by-side comparison of the same translated text between MTs can help you have an idea which one will deliver the best results for your needs. Thus you can make an educated purchase knowing what to expect and if there's an ROI. Don't hesitate to post your findings in the mentioned thread, that could help someone else. By the way, for En-De, check DeepL, depending on your text needs, the output in German is usually quite good I hear. My bests

Yes, I can. On the 'Dashboard' I see: Your subscription is expired - Learn more Welcome to SDL Language Cloud Get the best translation results by using our service After I click on 'Learn more', nothing happens. After I click on the 'Resources' button, a message pops up: SDL Language Cloud You don't have permissions for this account. Then I am kicked out of the program and sent back to the log-in prompt *grrr* I already contacted SDL support, and they have answered today. This is what they wrote: Please check if the scenario from this article applies to your situation: https://gateway.sdl.com/apex/communityknowledge?articleName=000010539 Also here is an article on how to generate the API: https://gateway.sdl.com/apex/communityknowledge?articleName=000005906 Boths links don't help me. I have asked the support how I can see what Google Translation API Key I am using (v2 or v3). I am now waiting for the next email from SDL Support... | |

Hi Marina, I used Google translate in Studio in 2018-19, then my free subscription expired and the plugin stopped working, So I switched to SDL free MT. I was suggesting you to contact SDL LC support, which is only for Language Cloud issues at this page: https://gateway.sdl.com/webtocaselcmt They helped me fix my SDL Language Cloud issues a couple of times.

SDL cancelled free subscriptions to LC in February 2019, so you should have it included with your licence.
