Our take
Pick POEditor if you're on a small product team who live in Gettext / JSON / XLIFF and want a $0–$60 desk. Pick Weblate if you're on a oSS and EU-hosted team who will run Weblate or pay a yearly string invoice. Skip POEditor if you're enterprises who need Phrase-scale TMS seats (Phrase). Skip Weblate if you're marketers who need a JS site snippet (Weglot).
