Usage Note

Computerizado is an anglicism widely accepted in technical and medical Spanish, though the Real Academia Española prefers informatizado or computarizado. In practice all three coexist: tomografía computarizada (CT scan) is the standard medical term across the Spanish-speaking world. In Spain ordenador is the standard word for computer, making informatizado more common there informally.

Examples

"El sistema es completamente computerizado."

Natural Translation

The system is completely computerized.
