Has anyone used SDL International (http://www.sdlintl.com/) for translations of their products and/or documents?

I ask because my company is in the midst of a VERY ugly situation with this company - incomplete translations, and what is there is both inconsistent with the source and inaccurate in many respects. We suspect what they did is simply run our stuff through a machine translation and then not do any checking or cleanup.

On a related note - anyone have any technical translation firms to recommend? We'll be changing vendors as soon as possible after our current release.
