Why should I choose Talk Russian?
Ten years ago we asked our clients one question: what made you choose Talk Russian? What they told us in our survey in 2016 is still true in 2026.
Our Google reviews over the past decade show a combination of things clients value: speed, expertise and personal service.
Price is rarely the main deciding factor, but clients confirm they feel the service we provide represents great value for money alongside high quality. Just as they did ten years ago, they also value our guidance through sometimes complex certification requirements. Knowing the level of certification required helps our clients avoid unnecessary steps and expense.
Prompt communication has always mattered for businesses. But as the pace of commerce has accelerated, people’s expectations have grown too. Clients want to receive responses to their enquiries fast so they can move forward.
What has changed in the way we deliver translations? In our experience, acceptance of electronic certified translations has become more widespread, and most of our clients no longer request paper copies by post. Official organisations have adjusted their requirements too: if, for example, years ago the US Embassy used to require notarised translations with an apostille, now certified translations will suffice.
Electronic delivery also means we have to protect the authenticity of our certified translations. We have strengthened our certification procedures to make our translations easier to verify and reduce the risk of our professional credentials being misused. As AI and other digital tools become more capable, we continue to review these safeguards.
Ten years on, technology and expectations have moved forward. The feedback from our clients demonstrates that people still want the same essentials: an accurate translation, a prompt response and a personal service.
