COMPARE PRICING
When thinking about pricing, people tend to think of a flat translation cost. But you also have to remember the costs of maintanence and quality assurance.
Don’t overlook maintenance.
Your product is constantly evolving. So localization is an ongoing effort. Using a platform to manage your translations will help you keep maintenance costs low.
Poor translation will cost you. A lot.
If your app is localized poorly, you will need to improve user experience by fixing the translations. But the proofreading cost is usually huge, and sometimes it ends up being more like a redo. So think carefully about quality before localizing an app, and remember that QA measures can save you money down the line.
With OneSky’s free platform, you can save at least $99 per month!
Gengo is only a translation service provider. If you want to enjoy translation management and QA features, you need to buy third party software. But with OneSky, you can use our translation platform for FREE and order translation services at the same time.
Say you want to localize a mobile app with 3,000 English words into 20 languages (60,000 words in total):
