ALTA Language Services Reviews

Frustrating! I was told by my employer I did not pass my bilingual test (Vietnamese) even though I was born and raised in Vietnam and also was a previous interpreter at hospital & clinic. This company is a waste of time... wow! Test was extremely fast paced and recording was also a fast talker with different dialect. I just don't think it's fair.

I don't think the translator translated 100% of what the geneticist said. Firstly, there were some things I understood that he didn't translate, Secondly the geneticist spoke Chinese (I didn't know that the geneticist spoke Chinese before the meeting, and no one told me that), and at one point in the middle of the appointment she even explained it to me in Chinese herself

easy scheduling

Thank you for doing the job so fast and well done

ALTA Language Services has been exceptional throughout my experience with them. I first came across their services as an interpreter when I completed their 40-hour medical interpreting training in 2015. Thanks to their comprehensive training, I went on to become dually certified with both CCHI and NBCMI, and found the certification exams to be much easier as a result. After establishing my own interpreting company, we have consistently relied on ALTA for all our training and language assessment needs. Additionally, I’ve utilized their services as a client, particularly for rare languages, and our companies currently collaborate on various projects. In baseball terms, you could say I’ve hit for the cycle with ALTA, having been a student, client, and partner. Over the years, I’ve had the pleasure of working with their management team on multiple occasions, and the experience has always been the same—nothing short of excellence. Whatever your language needs, you are in great hands with ALTA.

Super easy to book, quick responses from staff.

Alta's portal is easy, friendly and results are fast.

Competitive price, great account service, quality translations!

The staff assisting us was very knowledgeable and helpful when we requested information about services. Setting up our account was easy. We had some issues with one test (over the phone) but that was resolved. Will highly recommend the services and continue to use them in the future.

Trash company that copy and pasted questions from the 70s. 21 questions to tell if I’m bilingual is pretty brain dead especially when half of my questions are bs hypotheticals. Sell me “house and auto insurance”. Your company’s a joke. Don’t work for anyone using this trash. I’m literally fluent free up speaking both English and Spanish and they’re going to judge me😂. Crazy I wasted 30 minutes on this garbage

I used two translators on two dates, and both were great. Thank you for everything.

The translation turnaround time was really quick, and the ALTA representative that I worked with was very responsive. My only critique is that on a material that contained a bulleted list, the translated text that was on the document that I received back from ALTA did not match up to the actual bullets so it was hard to know where the text for each bulleted item started and stopped, as I did not know the other language. I felt that there could have been more attention paid to that.

Great communication, responds quickly, scheduling was easy. Our provider was very happy with this service.

Easy to self schedule, lot of language choices.

We needed a translator for a deposition. The translators did not appear to be familiar with standard rules regarding depositions (they were explaining questions to the deponent and then paraphrasing the deponent's answers as opposed to just translating). Also where the translators did not understand terms, they were guessing, which confused our deponent significantly.
