Customer Reviews

Overpriced for non-European languages
Apparently the subscription price for each additional language is 200 dollars, which seems rather steep. Previously I used Promt, which does most European languages plus Russian, free online I do not know the cost to add other languages for Promt. Now Systran has a free online translator that meets my needs perfectly and actually does a good job of translating.

The box looks great..5 star reviews..and I can never find the Systran box anymore except on the large online auction site that is NOT Amazon.

At any rate, I think it might be best to invest in Systran--a better value for your dollar--it includes most languages for the extra 200 dollars.

Thanks.

Misleading advertising at its finest
It may be Amazon's fault or it may be the software vendor's, but it is completely unclear what languages are covered by the CD included with this product and which ones require internet access/subscription. I purchased this for someone without internet access, only to find that the needed language (Dutch) was not provided on the disc. Needless to say the product is on its way back. For a firm built on internet-based marketing, Amazon totally and unacceptably dropped the ball with its description of this product.

Misleading Box
Despite all the pretty flags on the box, the software as packaged does NOT translate between every language. Only the standard European languages are handled. If you want Asian (Japanese, in my case), you have to pony up a minimum of $200 for their Asian product. Alas, I bought this at CompUSA's fire sale, so I can't return it, but caveat emptor...
