best online services for i18n localization of existing rails project [closed]

Question

Whats your opinion on translation services and which one would be a good fit for rails project with 2,3 but growing number of languages?

Perhaps we can compile a list of services with pro's and con's.

I have looked at:

• http://www.localeapp.com ( very nice but a bit pricey above the 500 + strings )
• https://webtranslateit.com
• http://www.smartling.com
• http://99translations.com

Any recomendations on what service would be a good fit ?

If you need an affordable solution, you might want to take a look at PhraseApp as well: https://phraseapp.com

Answer 2

Have you looked at CopyCopter? It was commercial service, but it turned into open source project. You have nice screencast on railscasts on the topic: http://railscasts.com/episodes/336-copycopter
