Trados doesn't work on Mac. Apparently MemoQ doesn't either.

[The w]eb version [of MemoQ] works on all platforms.


The MemoQ web version is a two-component system -- a client and a server. The client works on any platform with a reasonably modern browser, but the server is not platform independent -- it requires Windows Server 2012. So if you want to use the web version on "all platforms", you're still going to have to install the server on a separate computer that runs just one specific OS.


then it is platform independent.
As a translator one is mostly interested in the client-side application which if runnable inside a browser is platform-independent.

Agree with Hans. It's a real pity so many people always seem to think Studio and memoQ are the only two out there. Especially for people who already own a Studio licence, it is a much better idea to do your actual translating in something better like CafeTran (which can handle Studio formats), and if need be do a final check in Studio. Neither is there nay need to keep paying for new Studio versions every year (even though I stupidly keep doing that) as an older version is usually just fine for running a final compatibility check.

if that is the case, why keep paying SDL? Its not as if they have really taken the Studio product anywhere.
Would be interested to find out if they have an F/T development staff there.
