Post title: Simplicity
I don't have a favourite CAT tool. "Every CAT tool has some features that other tools don't offer" this sounds like the very problem with most CAT tools. CAT tools should be simple and straightforward, like Phrase/Memsource (come to think of it, it's my favourite CAT tool), not like MemoQ where you feel like you're in command of a bleeding Boeing 747. I know you boffins like all them bells and whistles, but simpletons like us just want to confirm segments, do a basic concordance search and not want to deal with CAL server issues and spend hours emailing back and forth with the helpdesk. So there.
