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 Lingvanex if
- Enterprise companies requiring strict GDPR and HIPAA compliant private translation
- Global customer support teams translating live chats and documentation at scale
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
Lingvanex
- Casual individual bloggers looking for a cheap $5 browser extension
