Best Multi Language Addon / App that is compatible with Shopify Native Language Features?

Technical Q&A
1

There are currently 11 addons that officially are compatible with shopify store languages, which one do you recommend most?
https://apps.shopify.com/collections/apps-for-store-languages

Some features that should be factored in:

  • Best seo features.

  • Best speed.

- Ability to translate images !(have an image show for EN and a different image show for FR)

  • Automatic translation is fine, however for the majority of the text we will want to manually translate most of it professionally.

  • needs to allow us to use different domains for different languages (example: french-name.com for french website, english-name.com for english website).

  • Not sure if any addon supports this but, we will want to have shopify automated emails translated too (order confirmation, shipping, abandonned carts)

  • Some other Addon that we plan on using that might need to somehow (if possible?) work with multi language are Klaviyo (for sending newsletter campaigns) and Shipstation (for managing order fulfilment).

For now we only want to have 2 languages, French and English.
We also have 2 currencies (CAD + USD) and are using shopify native multi-currency, I see some language addons have currency features, not sure if they are necessary, perhaps a nice to have but if they are not needed hopefully they would not interfere with the current native shopify multi-currency we set up.
