GlobalLink Strings review
A feature-rich localization workspace with TransPerfect ordering and a €500/month Pro entry point.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
GlobalLink Strings coordinates software translation work across projects and languages, giving app teams a browser-based editor for reviewing text in context alongside workflow statuses, roles, memory, and glossary tools. It suits teams that need localization to fit into an application delivery process, particularly those already seeking translation services from TransPerfect. Mobile SDKs cover iOS, Android, Flutter, React Native, Xamarin, and Unity, while design-tool connections and developer interfaces extend its reach beyond the editor.
The main product distinction is the blend of localization management and translation ordering. Teams can assign translators and reviewers, manage draft and target states through approval and publishing, and use customizable workflows. Translation memory helps match and reuse existing translations; a project glossary stores terms, translations, instructions, and synonyms. Machine and AI translation options include rephrasing and shortening. The translation order interface links the workflow to TransPerfect services, so this is a stronger fit for teams considering that service relationship than for buyers seeking a vendor-neutral localization workspace alone.
According to the published plans, the 14-day Free Trial permits one team member, one project, and one branch per project, and includes workflows, in-context editing, screenshots, memory, changelogs, and chat and email support. Pro starts at €500 per month and adds the workflow and editor, memory, glossary, translation orders, user groups, and backups. Growth has custom pricing; Enterprise adds custom SSO/SAML, a dedicated account manager, custom SLAs, and 24/7 global enterprise support. The price is a substantial entry commitment, and there is no ongoing free plan. Teams needing a short evaluation can start with the trial; those seeking a low-cost or free long-term tool should look elsewhere.
