I have acquired 60% of the total number of my clients via ProZ.com. The site is extremely efficient and is visited by serious outsourcers. Therefore, I will stay with the site!

I'm still in shock that we got the (popular children's character) contract -- it involves work that will go more than a year. And where did the editor-in-chief at their corporate offices in NYC, find me? At my profile on ProZ.com. I tell you, I've never gotten so much out of so little investment.

ProZ.com is a truly amazing source of new business for professional translators. The most worthwhile investment I've ever made in my business by a long shot. Thank you!

Thank you for your effort! I find it very useful.

From the first time I came across with ProZ.com on I can’t live without the best translation and interpreting website all over the world. The investment in Platinum Membership has certainly paid itself off through new contacts and a most comprehensive network support. What more can I ask? ProZ.com, thank you very much for being there!

That's brilliant! Very easy and super fast! I just needed this, if only I had received it earlier! I spent half an hour today downloading another program from the net as I needed urgently to send my first invoice! Thanks a lot!

A sound return on investment, I would say. :)

Of all the annual investments Monica and I make, ProZ.com membership is arguably the most valuable. Every year, our membership generates new business contacts which result in tangible job opportunities... ProZ.com membership is a definite thumbs up!

While I have been part of the community for more than five years, I just became a member last month. I cannot believe how many contacts I have made since becoming a (paying) member... I have three new clients and these are some of the best clients I have ever had.

Becoming a member of ProZ was one of the best things that I ever did; if I knew, I would have done it sooner. I want to thank all the team for so many opportunities they give to translators and, specially, to Soledad Azcona, who is always available for everything. Not only because she encouraged me at the beginning, she also still gives me her support. THANK YOU!

The investment in membership has consistently paid itself off, both through new clients and perhaps even more importantly access to the Blue Board.

I tried the tool out and it is AMAZING. Congratulations to ProZ.com for thinking of and developing such a fantastic and helpful tool.

I was able to become a full-time freelance translator with clients met through ProZ.com. It was the start to my new life and I haven't looked back since!

ProZ.com has helped me build my translation business... I now have more work than I can handle.

I have been a paying member for about 9 months. During that time I have met more than new 10 clients, most of them paying really well and usually on time.

This is simply the best, most comprehensive support network and best moderated web site I could wish for as a translator.

ProZ.com is a new higher level society and new way of thinking for translators!

ProZ.com has been a fantastic asset. I really appreciate being able to contact other professionals for advice when translating difficult terms. I have also increased my client base. Thank you so very much!

What I like most at ProZ.com is the relationship between the ProZ.com staff and us, the members. I felt that, while other sites are only after the money, you really care about us and about the way you can help us. This is very important.

ProZ.com has been a valuable resource,such as allowing me to organize a powwow which allowed for new contacts, which have encouraged to the valuable translator relation information that is presented. And most of all in the KudoZ which has allowed me to
broaden my language skills, again thank you!

This past year has been great. I woke up one morning deciding to go back to translating full time but I was not 100% sure that my decision was the right one. I left my "safe" English teaching job and recontacted my old clients. It didn't take long and I was soon back on track. Thanks to ProZ I have made contacts with new agencies around the world. I have met colleagues worldwide and found new friends... Words are my passion and this is the ideal job for me with growing children who love to see me around. My small office at home is not a lonely place at all and may I say I have never been happier. Thanks

ProZ.com is an essential tool for translators and interpreters. For me, it is a virtual work and marketplace. Forums, Powwows, conferences and group buys add a very beneficial social component without which many translators would feel very lost and alone in today's market.

The KudoZ section has become a regular part of my daily working routine. I can always count on it for useful information and interesting linguistic and cultural tidbits, as well as insights into my colleagues backgrounds and thought processes.

ProZ.com has acted as my guide. With my ProZ.com membership, I'm a happy, fully-fledged freelancer and I can safely say that I wouldn't be where I am today without the knowledge that I have gained from the site or the friendly community support network. Thank you!

Our common experiences as translators, the sharing of worries, doubts, questions in our forums regarding ONE TOPIC: TRANSLATION, all this has already created a warm, welcoming and caring community,
complete with powwows and special personal friendships.

Thanks for creating an inspiring place for us.

ProZ.com ist ein essentielles Werkzeug für Übersetzer und Dolmetscher. Für mich ist es ein virtueller Arbeits- und Marktplatz. Das Angebot wird durch Foren, Powwows, Konferenzen und Group Buys ergänzt, ohne die es Übersetzer am heutigen Markt wesentlich schwerer hätten.

I joined Proz to have greater contact with the translation community at large. I decided to organize a Powwow and was pleasantly surprised to receive a job offer as well as an opportunity to collaborate in writing for a Web page from two invitees. Talk about unexpected benefits!

No es un costo, es una inversión en tu profesión, tu trabajo, tu futuro. Seguro que otros colegas te darán una opinión similar.

Since I signed up in 1999 the world for me as a freelancer has transformed. There is a 'before' and 'after ProZ.com'

I have thoroughly enjoyed my membership (Dec 2000) for all it offers:

. Job offers (only slowly appearing during my first years - Swedish is a niche language),
. Knowledge sharing (KudoZ, articles, forum postings),
. Views sharing (forums),
. Social contacts (forums, powwows, conferences)
. Fun (forums and meetings)
.Practical help (recommending lodging for my daughter in New York and our stay in London),
. Buying and selling opportunities of lexica, books and programs ('Exchange')
. Expert advice on computer problems and programs (forums)
. Exposure: You can be found. You are someone, your efforts can be appreciated by others
(particularly outsourcers ;-) ) (directory, Connect and KudoZ)
. You can feel 'nest warmth' like in a family or in a club
. You increase your outlook. You get to know how people from other countries and cultures think.
Using the ProZ.com message function and the eMail link or Skype, you can get instant contact
with colleagues across the globe for in-depth individual discussions on all subjects.

I have indeed grown as a professional and as an individual by embracing all the above ProZ.com advantages.

EUR 80/USD 120/year (less for renewals) is a bargain price for what you get!

ProZ.com was my only way of being independent while waiting for working papers to come through (which they didn't in 3 years!)...After that, I just stick to it and I will remain to do so because it has since become my "workplace".

I've been registered with ProZ.com since 2000. I think Henry and the colleagues have done a great job, expanding the translation community and giving it weight and respectful attitude on behalf of the clients and translators.

ProZ.com is absolutely great! - As a worldwide translators' network and community it combines everything a translator is longing for. It pushes your business while you are winning new friends and sharing language and translation related questions and experiences with people all over the world.

I just wanted to say I think this site is fantastic, I've been a member for a couple of years now and I've had so much help from it - getting work, using the KudoZ facility and making contact with other translators.

Thank you!!

Die Mitgliedschaftkosten sind ihr Geld wert und machen sich schnell bezahlt.

Using ProZ.com for the past 5 years has been and is invaluable to me. It provides a forum for customers to locate a translator to fit their translation needs. When running into problems or queries, the various forums on Proz are an excellent source of advice and collegial support

I am proud that I am with ProZ.com from the very beginning. A grandiose idea of one gifted visionary Henry of Syracuse to melt together the language lovers from all over the world had settled in my heart forever. It is an exquisite pleasure and refined delight. Long Live ProZ!

This service is wonderful and just what I needed.

Mon adhésion à Proz.com m'a permis de répondre à des annonces et de trouver des clients qui, eux-mêmes, m'ont présenté à d'autres clients. Par ailleurs, Proz.com offre une source d'informations, une aide et un réseau capitales pour un traducteur freelance.

考え方としては国内の翻訳会社だけではなく、広く世界の翻訳会社も対象に入れて自分を売り込むことが肝心です。そのために、一番良いのはProZ.comのメンバーになることだと思います
