Choose Crowdin if
- Open-source and academic projects — both get free licences with unlimited projects and members
- Teams with many translators, since translator seats are unlimited on every paid plan
Choose DeepL Pro if
- Translators and copywriters needing nuanced phrasing
- Marketing teams translating pitch decks and PDFs while keeping layout
Where each one disappoints
Crowdin
- Anyone sizing cost by word count alone — the hosted-words limit multiplies by the number of target languages
- Teams wanting month-to-month on the larger plans — Team+ is annual billing only
DeepL Pro
- Automated website crawler localization without custom API integration
