CAT tools have been in the industry for a few years and they have rapidly expanded due to the multiple benefits they offer. Computer Aided Translation (CAT) tools certainly make the job of a translator much easier, yet sometimes the mere idea of learning to use one or more tools may scare beginners.

However, a great advantage is that the majority of CAT tools offer the same features including Translation Memory, Terminology Database and more. As part of these features, the tool allows users to store the previous translations into a database along with the original texts. Later, the program will check if there are previously translated segments in the source text and in case of a repetition, the software automatically reuses the stored translation. This is an example of how the features help save time, which is useful especially in cases of big files and short turnaround times. In the same way, CAT tools mark the untranslated segments and any error they detect, which increases consistency and quality throughout the document.

Undoubtedly, CAT tools are here to support linguist in their tasks and they have gained so much recognition and popularity that most agencies require linguists to have certain knowledge in two or more tools nowadays. This leads freelancers and CEOs to a point where they have to decide about their career path and how to become more competitive. The answer is simple: to leap forward and take advantage of CAT tools.
