translated xlif says successfully imported BUT it does not translate anything in Storyline

Hello!

Simple question, from the ones using xlif files, how accurate and useful do you find the tool? Please be honest.

We need to translate a huge amount of courses, we have an internal tool to translate, I export the xlif file, I translate it in the tool (I can ensure it was translated) but when I import it back to SL it says it succeed but the SL does not get translated.

We also used the human translation service, I imported the xlif file, they use the exact tool I used with the plus they then check it with a linguist, they gave me the file back, I exported and some slides or parts where not translated.

At this point I need to find a way that works fine, and I have the feeling this xlif is not an option for a huge amount of work, I am afraid I will have to export a word doc but paste it manually when it gets translated.
