Déjà Vu X3 vs Lokalize

Déjà Vu X3 is a Windows desktop computer-assisted translation tool built around reusing earlier translations. Its translation memory and terminology tools work within an integrated environment, while DeepMiner draws on translation memories and terminology databases to assemble phrases and improve fuzzy matches. AutoWrite suggests terms, phrases, and sentences from a user's databases as they translate. Quality checks cover terminology consistency, formatting, numbers, and tags, with customizable rules. Live Preview shows translated content in Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and PDF files as work progresses. Supported formats include Office files, PDF, XLIFF, SDLXLIFF, TMX, XML, YAML, InDesign, and HTML; interoperability formats include Studio packages, MemoQ XLIFF, Wordfast TXML, and Trados Workbench. Workgroup supports shared translation memories and termbases, multilingual projects, and workload splitting. The free edition supports standalone and satellite projects prepared with Déjà Vu X3 Workgroup after a 30-day Professional evaluation. The free plan is free; the pricing note lists paid plans from €420 and a 30-day trial.
