Venus Verity review for Transcy: AI Language Translate
Use caution when using this app. Actually, no one should be using this app as it is SEO killer. The app does not comply with Google's SEO guidelines, which leads to google not indexing translated pages due to 302 Redirect. The team know the issue but apparently their response to the issue is that their app "focuses on the storefront". This is Bull*. If you want your store to be discoverable from Google, DO NOT USE THIS APP. Now this is for the redirection. When it comes to translations: 1. It is just an expensive version of the basic Shopify App using Google Translate. To use the AI version you need to pay even more. 2. It has a better user experience that the basic Shopify App, but still not in Sync with the already translated content. Content translated outside the App is considered Untranslated. Doesn't make sense. Only + from my experience using the App is their Support team. They are always very responsive and helpful despite the quality of their app. ----------------------------------------------- Edit of review on the 16th of September 2024 - In response to Transcy response. ----------------------------------------------- You mentioned that you tried to provide solution to resolve that. "However, we still have tried to provide the relevant solution to resolve that, meanwhile we seriously noted this feedback to improve our app" That's not true. What you asked me to do is to turn on the recommendation. When I asked you if that will work, your answer was that "It might mitigate the issue". You did not provide a clear and confident answer/solution. Even though you knew that it won't work (i suspect, considering all the other negative reviews), you still recommended me a not functional solution to my problem. That's worst than be straight from the beginning and then saying "We are not responsible for SEO, just the storefront". Regarding content untranslated outside the app, you can just create a status "Translated by Third Party" instead of "Untranslated". By having the status of Translated content as "Untranslated" you prompt user to translate already translated content and pay even more. That's questionable practice.
