As with any language service provider, quality will depend on the specific translator and project complexity.

If your document has very specialised requirements (e.g., legal documents for a foreign jurisdiction), you should check whether they have translators familiar with that domain.

If translation is for official use (embassy, legal) you may want to verify acceptance by the relevant authority of their certification or notarization.
