As a Linux user, OmegaT and Wordfast. | | |

Essentially, I use Trados (Studio 09). I also have MemoQ which I use for one customer (and was provided by that customer). I have also recently been given a Transit licence, which I have installed and looked at briefly but not yet used in anger. | |

By the way, I noticed that the "none" option is missing. I know many translators who don't use any CAT tools. I don't do technical translations and don't really need an advanced CAT tool or a well-maintained TM. But I like having all I do recorded in a TM which is some sort of an instant backup. So I use mine basically not to lose my work whenever my little monster decides to come and hit the power button of my PC all of a sudden. | | | Depends how you count, but I make it four! | Jul 31, 2011 |
Trados 2007, Studio 2009 and SDL Edit, plus Wordfast. I use the first two regularly, and regard Wordfast as a backup. I liked it for a time, but now use it only for PowerPoint. Most of my TMs need updating if I am going to use it seriously again, but it saved a number of jobs for me when I updated Trados from 2006 to 2007 and Trados seized up! One agency insists I should use SDL Edit for their jobs, and it works, but I have not used it enough to have any strong... See more Trados 2007, Studio 2009 and SDL Edit, plus Wordfast. I use the first two regularly, and regard Wordfast as a backup. I liked it for a time, but now use it only for PowerPoint. Most of my TMs need updating if I am going to use it seriously again, but it saved a number of jobs for me when I updated Trados from 2006 to 2007 and Trados seized up! One agency insists I should use SDL Edit for their jobs, and it works, but I have not used it enough to have any strong feelings about it. I have not dared to try exporting to Trados, which is an option on the menus - I am not certain that I could get the files back in the formats required by the client for delivery. For a total non-nerd, I seem to have a lot of CATS, and we have not even mentioned Multiterm! ▲ Collapse | |

Wordfast Classic, Wordfast Pro, Trados 2007 + 2009, Transit, Passolo, OmegaT. I suppose by default SDL is also on there, although I've never used it. I have Across on the laptop as well, but not on the main PC. | |

0: This was the option I choose. I translate books, so I don't need the help of any CAT tool for my daily work. | | | Vneditor Vietnam Local time: 12:32 English to Vietnamese + ...
My preferred tool is OmegaT, but I also use Trados and Wordfast for people who require them. | | |
