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 Transifex if
- Tech companies localizing web apps and documentation
- Global marketing teams managing multilingual product rollouts
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
Transifex
- One-off single-document offline manual translations
