I've used google translate when I needed to translate a large text between English and my mother language. There are sections where it is easier to ignore the translation because of the time it takes to make sense of what went wrong in the process, but half the time the only thing that is needed is to change the position of words in the sentence, a few prepositions, and maybe the gender of some words.

So I can tell you that it can make the process faster, but I think that if you suggest this to a translator, you might get a price increase.
