Different versions of Across

Across crossWeb is a browser interface that is free to use and doesn't require installation, but it is also slightly limited in functionality compared with the full desktop version. Despite this, whenever possible, we prefer to work in crossWeb as it allows for easier user support and credential sharing. crossWeb is accessed via a client-specific URL, username and password.

Across Translator Edition is the full desktop version with two further versions: Basic (free) and Premium (monthly paid subscription).

  • The Basic version is free to use but has some limitations. A notable limitation is that this version will only allow connection to one client server at the same time. If you use the Across Translator Edition for more than one clients at a time, or if you wish to do so, you may need to upgrade to the Premium version.
  • The Premium version is a monthly paid subscription. With the subscription, you can both use Across as a standalone CAT tool (as in, import your own documents and translate them using Across) and to connect to an unlimited number of client servers. You can compare the two different versions on the Across website.
