    We´re using Yootheme as main Builder for our sites. No other translation-plugin integrates so perfect! Thanks Stéphane!

  • Excelent Plugin with Incredibly good support!

    I have discovered this plugin because of a client at work and I really liked it's implementation. Yesterday I had a big problem and I can say that sbouey gave me amazing support. It took a while to figure out the problem, and asked me everything needed to pinpoint the problem. I had tons of emails with news and progress delivered to my inbox and when I answered the reply was always fast. In the end the problem was solved with today's update. Again, this plugin is amazing, but the people behind it is even greater. I really recommend you try and support it :)

  • A great translation tool

    A great translation tool if you use Yootheme.What I appreciate most about this plugin is its clarity and intuitive controls. It saved me a lot of time when I translated the site into multiple languages. I appreciate also excelent customer service.
