Tolingo can be described as an online purveyor of translation services. You place an order through the site, and upon doing so a qualified translator will accept the assignment and get down to translating it using the online platform that is provided by the company.
The main asset of this service is that the customer (IE, you) can keep track of the progress of the translation over the web. Furthermore, once the translation itself has been completed it is possible to have a senior translator proofread the text in order to carry out any amendment or correction. Personally (and as a translator myself) I feel that should be part of the service to begin with, not something you have to choose or not. Proofreading is a pivotal part of any translation, and although this system has a quality check before delivering the finished text to the client, I still feel that part of the process should be modified, and that such a service should be provided by default.
When it comes to pricing, the final figure is arrived at by taking into account the number of words and the category of the text. The language combination is also taken into consideration.
If you want to give the site a try, you can upload your text and have the provided text cost calculator give you a free quote. Something that I found a bit curious was that if you decide to have the text translated you will have to pay in advance, although paying on account is also a possibility in particular cases (regular and company customers).
