Reviews about Magefan Translation Extension

We've been using Magefan's translation tool for years. The best part is its clean interface, which allows us to find and translate the required strings easily. Translated content shows up on the website, which is not always the case with similar extensions, and then you must still use unpractical text files. There is support for a wide variey of content and field types.

Customer support is friendly and honest: we've got our issues solved, and also money back in one case. I buy here with confidence, and would recommend Magefan as extension provider.

We've been running Cepmania.com, one of Turkey's largest phone and tablet accessories e-commerce stores, on Magento 2 for over a decade. Managing translations across multiple store views with thousands of SKUs is not a trivial task, and Magefan's Translation Extension has been a reliable part of our workflow.

What we appreciate most is the inline translation interface. It removes the need to dig through CSV files or use the default Magento translation layer, which is frankly painful to work with at scale. The extension integrates cleanly without conflicts with our theme (Hyva-based) and third-party modules.

The support team has been responsive when we needed clarification. Performance impact on the frontend is negligible, which matters for a store at our traffic levels.

If you're running a multi-locale Magento 2 store and need proper translation management without hacky workarounds, this is the pragmatic choice. We'd recommend it to other merchants without hesitation.

The Magento 2 translation module was easy to understand and worked very well during the tests. The interface was intuitive, and the integration process was smooth and efficient.

As a non-English speaker, it was a relief to discover the Translation Extension from Magefan. Easy installation, a little checking and translating for an hour, and then it worked by itself.

I use the Plus version of this extension. I originally managed translations through CSV files and was quite sceptical at first, but I decided to give it a try.

Now I consider it one of the most useful Magento extensions if you run a multilingual store.

The extension does not really add completely new functionality to Magento itself, but it makes managing multiple languages much easier. In my case, I use four languages, and the time saving is huge.

Thanks to the filtering options, you can easily find untranslated text that appears somewhere in the store. You can also see other occurrences of the same string, which makes it much easier to keep translations consistent across the whole store.

Another practical benefit is that all language versions are displayed side by side. This is especially useful when working with similar languages, such as Czech and Slovak, because you can quickly check how you translated the same or similar text in another language.

Another very useful feature is the ability to translate category content — such as the name, description, URL key, meta description and so on — without having to switch between store views. You can update translations for all languages at once, side by side, without constantly switching between store views. Given how slow the Magento admin interface can be, this is a major time saver.

The same probably applies to products as well, although I do not personally use that part of the extension.

I am very satisfied with the professional extension from Magefan. The Translation extension works reliably, is easy to configure, and saves a lot of time when managing multiple store languages in Magento 2. We use it on a multilingual e-commerce website and it helps us handle translations much more efficiently. The extension is stable, well-designed, and the Magefan support team is always helpful and responsive. Highly recommended for Magento stores with multiple languages.

I would like to leave an extremely positive review for Magefan, and especially for Viktoriia. They helped me integrate, develop, and fix Magefan’s Automatic Translation extension, which is a truly outstanding tool for translating entire websites efficiently and professionally.

I am also very pleased to have contributed to its development. Viktoriia and her team have been fantastic in every respect: skilled, responsive, helpful, and always attentive to the customer’s needs.

I received a level of support that many other Magento developers can only dream of. It is rare to find a team that is both so competent and so committed to providing exceptional assistance. I can recommend Magefan without hesitation.

This extension makes it much easier for us to translate our shop. We dont do the complete automation since we still want to manually adjust some text, this is perfect and saves us tons of time since there is no need anymore to switch between the different store views (languages) since it can all be done within one language.

We started working with Magefan more than a year ago, using this extension, and we are happy we did that. All goes great, thank you, Magefan.

The modules are working great. We had a minor incompatibility with a few custom sections but Magefan helped us fix that promptly. It's hard to find this kind of dedication these days. Appreciate the help and will buy more of your modules!

Love this tool. It helps a lot with our translations, real time saver. Last update with google translations api is a must-have for stores like us. Thanks for the wonderful support guys!

I've been using this Magento extension for a few weeks now and I must say it's a game-changer! It's straightforward to set up and integrates smoothly with our system. The features are a definite improvement in efficiency, making our daily tasks hassle-free. I appreciate the ongoing updates too, which show real dedication to product improvement. There are still a few minor tweaks needed for it to be perfect, but overall, it's definitely worth 4 out of 5 stars. Great work!

We are using the module for few weeks and already enjoy it. We are saving a lot of time to manage translation on Magento platform in several languages. Support is very responsive in case of issue, we do recommend this tool !

The Magento 2 Translation extension is quite good, but it has some minor bugs. The websites with many store views will have to customize the layout of the extension.

The extension works great.

It would be good if the extension would translate half of the phrase.

Very good

I purchased this module being a little skeptical, but after installation I found that it is extremely useful. The automatic search function for the words that require translation does not identify all the words (most likely not because of this module but because of those who made the other modules), but very easily you can manually add the words to be translated.
Until I identified this module, I was working according to the classic method, with a csv file that seemed extremely cumbersome to me. Now everything seems extremely easy and simple to me.

Don't get it for CLOUD, you pay 3X the price and the extension basically does not work. So far Support has been totally inefficient to provide a solution and they even asked for SSH accecss to connect to Cloud. Funny, since the cloud is managed by Adobe there are no "keys" to provide.

Magefan's reply:

We understand your concerns. However, the cloud actually does have SSH, you can find it in your Cloud panel. Of course, it doesn't allow editing files directly but it gives us an opportunity to investigate the issue. We've asked for SSH since, unfortunately, we cannot reproduce this issue on our Magento cloud environment, as this issue may be related to a conflict with a third-party or custom theme on your instance.

Regarding the price of the module, the price for the Cloud version is higher because of the specifics of the Cloud environment (the Translation extension includes Cloud-specific code) and providing support for the Cloud environment.

We have contacted you for resolving this issue and hope we could create a fix as soon as the requested data is provided to us.

Absolutely brilliant, solved a translation problem I was having in minutes, and much quicker and easier than doing it the Magento way.

This extension is perfect for those of us who do not have English as our mother tongue and need to translate the platform into other languages.

I found the Magento 2 translation extension a very useful tool. It's easy to install, easy to use, the translation are well-organized and it works out of the box. I would definitely recommend it to everyone who needs to manage translation in magento 2.

Nice Service!

We are not happy with the Extension !!
The extension leaves a lot to be desired, as it does not translate 100%, nor does it translate correctly.
The translation of this extension is 60%

Magefan's reply:

Our extension works on the Magento translation functions and provides 100% translation if the provided text code is correct.

If the text isn't translated, check if the text you try to translate is wrapped in the translation function. It might be that developers didn't wrap the text in the translation function in their module or theme. In this case, translation conditions weren't created and the text wouldn't be translated even if you applied the language packs to it.

Also, please note that if your translations are added through JavaScript, you have to redeploy static content to see the translation.

The other case might be that the text you're trying to translate is generated with variables. So, you have to add translation with the variables too. Besides, you can use the Translate Inline Tool to work with the variables more easily.

The extension is super useful, the support is excellent and it's a worth-worthy investment.

Installed without problems, it works. Thank you.

Everybody who works with M2 knows how time consuming it is to search for the extension files.
With this extenions it's so easy to translate sentences or words.

This does seem to do the job well! But they do need to mention that you will sometimes need to use the absolute path of PHP in order for this to work on certain occasions.

Thanks to the magefan team that is giving us such a great extension for free. It works out of the box with current m2.3.5-p1 version. As an suggestion: it would be a good addition to add a url translator. So you do not have to edit all urls at each page. All translations would be included in one step.
P.S. Also the support is fast, polite and helpfull.

I use the extension on all websites and it saves me a lot of time. If it wasn't this extension, I was looking for a way to translate that message or phrase, but now with this extension, it's all easy. For a multisite web where there are multiple languages, this is the perfect extension. In addition, the support is very good. I recommend.
