Localize and Weglot both provide translation solutions, but they cater to different needs, workflows, and levels of customization. While Weglot offers a simple setup for small to medium-sized businesses, Localize is designed with enterprise-level scalability in mind. Additionally, Localize’s powerful API provides deeper control and flexibility for teams requiring custom solutions.

Localize’s plans are tailored to accommodate factors such as project size and translation volume while offering greater transparency and scalability. In contrast, Weglot’s pricing is based on word count, which can result in unpredictable costs as your site grows. Whether you’re managing one website, a web app, or multiple content types, Localize ensures your project can be accomplished at scale, while remaining cost effective — while with Weglot, you may outgrow its capabilities sooner than expected.

While Localize and Weglot both support website translation, Localize offers a more comprehensive and flexible approach to handling a variety of content types across platforms and applications. Localize supports document translation, mobile app translation, subtitle translation, and email translation in addition to dynamic, complex web applications and websites. Whether your content is static, dynamic, or deeply integrated into your applications, Localize ensures a seamless experience across platforms.

A proxy server acts as an intermediary between a website and its visitors, translating content by intercepting and serving localized versions of web pages. Weglot relies on a proxy-based approach, which means translated content is hosted on their servers. Localize ensures that your content remains in your control and does not add a layer between your website and your end users, which can impact load times.

At Localize, we believe exceptional customer support is key to your success. While both Localize and Weglot offer support, Localize goes above and beyond to provide personalized, proactive assistance tailored to your needs, ensuring you get the most of out our solution. Our team is highly responsive, with experts ready to assist when you need it the most. While Weglot provides support, it may lack the same level of responsiveness and depth offered by Localize’s support team.
