The app works good. But I am having terrible issues with the help agents. They made my problem worse. I just needed help with ONE word translated and now I have to pay to fix their mistake! I am really feeling helpless at the moment.
Hi there, This is John and we personally apologize for any inconvenience causing to your experience - For unexpected support from the agent, we will recheck their work carefully and have a proper training to improve the service. Also please believe me that single conversation does not reflect the whole support and product quality we have built for years, hope you sympathize for us - We have seen that one of our colleagues is reaching out you and provided the relevant solution, please check your email and let him know if you need further support Regards, John Transcy by OneCommerce

Transy är en väldigt bra översättningsapp med många användbara funktioner. Tyvärr är supporten en stor besvikelse. Det känns som att de bara vill bli av med dig utan att anstränga sig för att hjälpa till. De är mer fokuserade på att man lämnar en recension direkt, utan att man faktiskt har använt appen tillräckligt länge för att kunna utvärdera den ordentligt. Supporten borde verkligen förbättras för att matcha appens kvalitet.

The price only show the subscription. It is misleading that they write "Unlimited advanced AI translations" as you have to pay a monthly add on to the subscription based on youe amount of products you want to get translated - this for sure is not transparent.
Hi Danny, This is Brown and we personally apologize for this inconvenience causing to your experience In relation to your issues as following: 1. For the misleading information, we have seriously noted and will take it into consideration. However, actually we're offering "Unlimited advanced AI translations" for all plans 2. For this concern "as you have to pay a monthly add on to the subscription based on youe amount of products you want to get translated". For making it clear, at that time, you were on the choose plan section and it suggested you with the relevant plans based on your business scale, however you can refer all plans and select the most relevant plan to start Also we have seen that one of our colleagues is reaching out you, please let him know if you need further support Regards, Brown Transcy by OneCommerce

The Transcy team has very responsive, hands-on support team. However, this did not translate into a working app. Ultimately, it failed to consistently translate the content on the page after hours of me working with their team to try and troubleshoot the reason. They sent me a video saying "see it works" and, in the video itself, it didn't work.
Hi there, This is Adela from Transcy and we sincerely apologize for the trouble from our app We have seen that one of our colleagues is following your case, he gave you clear explanation along with the relevant solutions, please kindly check your email and let him know if you need further support.

Cette application est trop lente, l'abonnement est cher dés 10 € seulement pour 2 langues ect .. Ce n'est pas assez fluide pour paramétré et mettre en place l'application.
Hi Chloe, This is Kevin from Transcy and we sincerely apologize for your unexpected experience with our app In relation to your concerns as following: 1. The application is too slow, unfortunately we seem not to catch your point clearly, we really appreciate if you explain it more details 2. As you mentioned the basic plan with $10 for 2 languages and it's not enough to set up. For making it clear, with basic plan, you can add two target languages including 1 basic and 1 advance language along with 167 currencies. Besides language, our app also supports to translate meta tags as well as description tags and to provide unique URLs for each language to ensure your store is easy to find on every search engine. Especially, we have an exclusive function called language and currency assignment, it means to decide which language and currency customers will be able to see. In Belgium, for example, Dutch is more common, but your customers can still browse and buy in French or any other languages. We have seen that one of our colleagues is following your case, he gave you a clear explanation, please kindly check your email and let him know if you need further support.

When you click the switcher it's translating super slow especially when you go from page to page....
Hi Strahil, This is Victoria from Transcy and we're deeply sorry for your unexpected experience with our app In relation to your issue, as usual once you switch to other language, it will take around 2 or 3 seconds to load its translation. Here, because you uninstalled our app, so it's hard for us to check your case further, please consider to reinstall our app and let us have a chance to support you with the highest priority We have seen that one of our colleagues is following your case, he gave you a clear explanation, please kindly check your email and let him know if you need further support.

I have been using this app for some time now, and we are using it because of the features it provides, although, I am making this review in hopes that further action will take place to improve the app, as I don't feel activity to elevate the app is currently in place. I haven't seen any improvements in the past 5-7 months. Since using this app, there are multiple technical glitches and the app is not very user-friendly. It is easy to click their "translate" button and all the backend work that we completed would be erased. That makes me very nervous. Once, I spent a lot of time adjusting the switcher placement and the next day it moved to a new location on its own. When I cannot find a solution on my own, I reach out to the support. They try really hard to help, but it will take at least half a day to find a solution, if they find a solution. If they do not find a solution, they will pass the project to another team. Sometimes I wonder if there is another team... Waiting until the next day to implement a simple feature like changing the link on a banner on our French page, is not ideal when working with customers on a live site. All the concerns I am addressing here I have addressed to the support team. I don't see any elevation in place to prevent the multiple technical glitches, or to create a more user-friendly app. I hope activities to create a stronger performing app will take place in the future. In addition to your response: Thank you for the update. Your support team is great. They try their best. I feel it is the technical team that needs to spend more time elevating the app so that the support team does not need to fix as many problems that are not necessary. Also, the tech team tried to resolve an issue that was already fixed. Now we are back to square one, and I was informed that I need to reach out to my theme for a solution. That does not make sense. I am leaving this note in hopes that you see where the app can be elevated. Please spend time elevating the tech team rather than your active support, because they are great!
Hi there, I'm Bellamy from Transcy and we're deeply sorry for this inconvenience causing to your experience In relation to your issues as well as feedback, we have seriously noted and will try to improve them in the right way. Also we have seen that one of our colleagues is reaching out you with clear explanations, please kindly check your email and let him know if you need further support For the process of escalating case, because sometimes there're complicated issues and it involves in third party app or from theme, so some of agents are not competent to investigate and give the relevant solution for your case, then they need to escalate to higher team to do it. By the way, we're trying to improve and enhance our human resources in term of skills, especially technical knowledge so that they can handle most of complex cases by themselves. Therefore, we highly appreciate your empathy on this situation Hope to hear from you soon Regards, Bellamy Transcy by OneCommerce

I'm very frustrated with the guys here at Transcy. When it comes to SEO they are very vague in their answers. I have asked several times about why we aren't ranking very well in other languages ie spanish, dutch, swedish etc and they keep saying there's many reasons. I fully understand this however I have since found out that image alt text or hreflang is important and these are two things this app doesn't offer. I feel frustrated as I have asked numerous times about their app and it's ability to help rank in SEO within chosen countries and I feel they haven't been fully honest about the capabilities of their app. It is vitally important that we rank for other languages as we are a Spanish company, english speaking, based in Spain. So the spanish translation HAS to perform well in SEO but there are things this app doesn't offer that is essential for this to happen. Yes, it does offer content translation, page title translation & meta tag translation but it doesn't offer image alt text or hreflang translation! I just wish they were honest when asked about this as i would have been able to move to weglot a long time ago!
Hi Ryan I'm Teresa and we sincerely apologize for your unexpected experience with us. Regarding to your main concerns as following: 1. For unexpected support from our agent, we personally talked directly to them in order to avoid it in the future. Also please believe us that single conversation does not reflect the whole support and product quality we have built for years, and we highly appreciate your understanding on this situation. 2. Regarding to SEO on Google as well as Hreflang, unfortunately our app has not yet supported them. At the moment, we just helps translate language on store font, we don't interfere them further, so it's out of our expertise. However we still have been trying to get more research on this regard to have resolution in the near future. We will keep you posted once we have any good new Regards, Teresa Transcy - Translate Language and Convert Currency

The support is fast to reply, but the app itself is not translating properly and accurately. Using the basic plan now and added 2 languages. One of them is Italian and the app translates the word Vest (piece of clothing) to News. I reported this to them and they said they can't change it for me, I would need to upgrade my plan and be able to edit the language. I also had issues with EN, banner text blocks would simply not translate. Not very happy about this app, I uninstalled it from my store.
Hi Anca, I'm Christopher and we're deeply sorry for your unexpected experience with our app Regarding to your main concerns as following: 1. For making it clear the difference of between basic and advance language. For basic and advance language, your store will be automatically translated by AI Translation system, but for advance language you can edit the translation, for basic because of its limit you cannot edit its translation. It's a known issue that we are using an AI Translation System including Google, so sometimes quality will not meet customer's expectation due to specific language/context/situation/business industry. However, we guarantee that the system is being upgraded frequently, and the quality keeps improving when time goes 2. We have seen that one of our colleagues is following your case, he gave you clear explanation as well as solution for your case, please kindly check your email and let him know if you need further support Looking forward to hearing from you as soon as possible Regards, Christopher Transcy - Translate Language and Convert Currency

Honestly? It is pretty chaotic. Yesterday I had one help person who completely messed up the languages on our second shop - though I had specified extremely clearly (twice!) what was needed. Today, someone has simply renamed our theme without letting us know, while they try to fix a bug. They don't seem to understand version control and the importance of informing the shop owner about something as basic as renaming a theme. They also have a habit, when something has clearly gone wrong, of saying that it was someone else at Transcy, not them. So i guess they don't brief each other on a job, or do a clear hand-over if someone else comes in on a new shift halfway through a job? On one help request, it seems you can easily end up with three different people and there is a lot of starting from scratch to explain the issue each time. Finally, they push and push endlessly to ask for a review. I was even asked, "Why don't you have time to write a review for us?" It's not very professional. As I say, the overall impression is that it's pretty chaotic on the help side.

support is really bad. I need help but whenever I reached out a girl named "Jennifer" replies but gives me no solution, i end up thinking she doesn't even understand english very well.

Never take their optimization for the speed of your site. I asked their expert to fix the errors in the code of my site to speed up the speed of the site. The price is 150 €, so far it's reasonable. My score before optimization was 18 out of 100, after the service finished my site had a speed of 22/100, which is ridiculous, I felt like an idiot and of course for them the situation is quite normal for them they have optimized my site well and they are happy with their results, it's nonsense. For me, this is an application to be strongly avoided and never use their expert for the speed of your site !!!!!!!!
Hi there, Here's Kathy. Thanks for your review and your feedback. Firstly, we sincere apology for any inconvenience causing to you when experiencing our service. We always try our best to satisfy our customer and this is certainly not the result we expected. Relating to your store, we have optimized and provided you a detail report of the score before and after optimizing. Your Homepage, Collection page and Product page are scored 14, 15, 2 respectively before optimizing and they are scored 34, 35, 13 after our works. Although it is not able to reach the high level as 80 - 90 points, it has obviously increased in comparison to your prior performance. Our goal is to boost your speed score on Google PageSpeed Insights as high as possible. However, the level we can get would depend on many different factors. More information about that can be found in this article: https://support.fireapps.io/en/article/what-can-i-expect-from-fireapps-expert-service-193os03/ Our colleague, Julie, is contacting you to support via your email. Please feel free to let us know if there's anything else we can help. If you have any questions or need help, feel free to contact us at any time via our 24/7 live chat or email us at [email protected] Regards, Kathy Transcy - Translate Language and Convert Currency

The plugin seems ok - but it is difficult to evaluate with such a pushy and rude customer-support/outsourced service-center/bot which only have one goal and that is to get you to make a 5 star review 2 miuntes after you downloaded the plugin and had zero chance to evaluate the plugin.

Would have chosen another app if I could rewind - im using dawn 2.0 & it's just not working as it should.. Support is very responsive and helpful - but it seems like from my end - A lot of small issues / bugs.. Just doesn't work properly tons of places where I suddenly need to update my translations again, html tags included in text all of a sudden. Reverting to old translations without any cause, using 20 USD subscription..

We have been using Transcy several months now (altough it says 5 days for some reason). There's 1000 product limit and we have 3300 products, but there's no way to translate only the products that are online. You'd have to search them manually by using the info from Shopify customer front. We use Prestige theme and the categories don't work. Transcy replied "We're so sad to hear no further support from theme and if theme cannot support on this case, this issue cannot be resolved". We asked help from the theme maker but they replied that they don't do support for third party apps.

The idea is good. The service, in fact, is very useful. The word limit is also Ok. But, when it comes to manually edit the languages. It gave me various problems. Copy and Paste of external text can´t be done with formatting, images (Gifs) I tried to upload also could not be uploaded. I had to change the HTML code directly. When changed only the HTML code it did not allow me to save what I had changed. So I had to change also the normal text. The client service was good. Not too useful at first, but it is an extra to highlight on the service.
Hi Mario, Here's Matthew from Transcy - Translate Language and Convert Currency Customer Support Team and we are truly sorry for this inconvenience caused. For your issue that "Copy and Paste of external text can´t be done with formatting", as usual our app will automatically detect the relevant text from your default language and translate it into target language. If you copy and paste the external text into the edit section, it will result in wrong format. However, for this specific case, you please let us know what external text you copy and paste in details so that we can check it further and try to help you if possible. My colleague has sent you a follow-up email, please let them know if you need further support. Looking forward to hearing from you soon.

(Updated Review) This is a basic translation app. It will not allow you to translate 3rd party elements which the development team mentioned that there are limitations although it is not stated on their support page or on the Shopify app page. So if you are looking to do so, I will highly recommend using Weglot instead. Weglot does not have any problem translating 3rd party elements. However, the customer service is pretty good given that they took the initiative to call me to explain and were willing to provide a refund.
Hi there, I'm Wilson from Transcy - Translate Language and Convert Currency Customer Support Team. I received your complaint concerning your issue as unable to edit third party element, so I'm sorry that the service did not live up to those goals for you. I will make every effort to address this issue in order to make sure that it does not happen again for you or our other visitors. Although it can't make up for your poor experience, I would like to offer you a refund as an apology. Thank you for bringing the problem to our attention. If you have any questions or comments for us, please feel free to contact us at any time via our 24/7 live chat or email us at [email protected] Best Regards Wilson Transcy - Translate Language and Convert Currency

So far so good, it does the job. Support was very helpful and help me to solve my problem. After usage, I could realise that the app is very, like very heavy on the website and slow it down a lot. 600ms download time, really?????
