Not knowing much about Babylon, I did a bit of a Google search to check it out.
The blurb saying "Translate any full text by clicking on it, or by simply copying and pasting it into your desktop translator." ... sounds to me like the old Systran. I doubt that many professional translators use this type of software nowadays.
The cheapest CAT tool I personally use is Wordfast Classic. For automatic translation, I use GT4T, although others are available.
If you've already paid for the Babylon software and they are not responding to your request for help, phone calls or emails, it would set off all my alarm bells.
