"Grammarly for Technical Writing and Communication"
5/5
What do you like best about Grammarly?

I mainly use Grammarly for checking the grammar and style of my technical articles. I appreciate that it tries to improve my writing without messing it up and retains my style without rewriting full paragraphs. I love its ease of use and the extensive nature of its suggestions. I find the categories of suggestions, both in terms of correctness and also in terms of style and substance, very helpful. I use Grammarly with my web browser through Safari and Chromium plugins, where I can paste my writing into a simple editor and let Grammarly suggest improvements. Doing a Grammarly pass is often the last step before submitting my copy. It is pretty easy to use; the product is self-explanatory, and you get the gist of it after trying it a couple of times. I've been using Grammarly for many years, starting around 2012-13, and I use it across all my text editors and sometimes with my email. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Grammarly?

I do feel that Grammarly should start supporting more and more languages, although I do understand how that is a hard problem, especially when you don't want the suggestions to be real and grounded in the experience of human-led writing and not AI-led writing. I think the price point could be slightly lower. $8/month paid annually would be much better value, but that's just me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"An Indispensable, Always-On Editor for Clearer, Polished Writing"
4/5
What do you like best about Grammarly?

Grammarly is a great tool for catching basic grammar, spelling, and punctuation errors that often slip through during my drafting process, but more importantly, it really is an indispensable tool to improve, rephrase, and polish emails and text to ensure clarity and tone (professional, informal, direct, simplifying, etc). Once I started using it, it became so convenient (and almost indispensable!) and acts as an "always-on" editor that saves me significant time during proofreading. I also like the fact that it is available across various platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Grammarly?

The only downsides are: (1) the cost of the Premium subscription and the fact that it cannot (to my knowledge) switch from English to French for text or translate text from English to French or vice versa. Also, with the arrival of AI, there exist many tools (ie Gemini, Chat GPT) which can be used to improve, rephrase or simplify, etc.. text, emails, paragraphs..

"Essential for Error-Free Writing and Collaboration"
5/5
What do you like best about Grammarly?

I use Grammarly for proofreading both for my work as a co-editor of The Baptist Herald and for my personal correspondence. It's much easier to catch errors in punctuation, spelling, and sentence structure with Grammarly. I like that it helps me write like a pro, making my communication clear and understandable. Grammarly suggests ways to structure sentences more clearly and catches punctuation errors that change the meaning of sentences. It corrects my spelling errors and helps with verb forms. Also, Grammarly was very easy to set up even though I'm not very tech-savvy, and it integrates well with Google Docs, Publisher, Word, emails, and all my social media posts. Overall, I'm thrilled with how Grammarly works for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Grammarly?

Sometimes Grammarly gets stuck, and even though it underlines a word in red, it will not give me the suggestion for that word. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Essential Writing Assistant with a Few Quirks"
5/5
What do you like best about Grammarly?

I use Grammarly for almost everything I do on my computer, whether it's a text or an email. It helps me, especially in creative writing. When hunting for just the right words or paragraph, I can count on Grammarly. When it comes to using the punctuation needed, Grammarly will tell me when I've chosen the wrong one and provide a correction. Grammarly meets my requirements better than any other program I've tried. When I needed help with the initial setup, Grammarly's assistance got it working in no time. I'd definitely recommend it to a friend or colleague. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Grammarly?

When writing a novel, especially one set in the 1770s, the vocabulary and manner of speech can cause Grammarly to mess up. It can struggle with characters like an uneducated mountain man, whose vocabulary won't match that of someone with a higher education. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Necessary Improvements for a Complete Mobile Experience"
4/5
What do you like best about Grammarly?

I like that Grammarly helps me correct my texts, whether in English or Spanish, so that they have the proper grammar. I greatly value the artificial intelligence feature that helps me complete my ideas and write correctly, especially in English, which I find very useful for letters and emails. Although my native language is Spanish, I use Grammarly a lot for English because it helps me express my ideas in an appropriate and professional context. I also think it has been very practical for my work and on a personal level. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Grammarly?

The use of artificial intelligence should be improved if I use it from my phone. Also, the AI assistance should be available in Spanish. That's what doesn't work well and should be improved. Moreover, it was easy to install, but difficult to find the way to access artificial intelligence to write something and have Grammarly help me correct the grammar and everything. It wasn't that easy to find that part. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Powerful for Academic Writing, Needs Better Activation Control"
4/5
What do you like best about Grammarly?

I really like that Grammarly gives me options to improve my writing and allows me to retrain it according to the context. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Grammarly?

When I install Grammarly, it automatically starts filling up the computer's processes and thinks everything needs to be corrected. I wish there was something where I could call it and only in that application; for example, if I am working on 3 Word documents, and I only need Grammarly in 1, it would allow me to work only on 1 and not be active by default in everything I open, because that slows down my computer. It's difficult at first because sometimes I need to correct my grammar in Spanish, and it tells me no, but then it does. And sometimes I need to correct it in English, but there are words I don't want to correct and others that I do later on. I haven't found how to make that 'dismiss' in such a way that it keeps one word, but not others. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Seamless, Fast, and Essential for Drafting Emails and Papers"
4/5
What do you like best about Grammarly?

Very helpful in assisting with mundane taskwork I don't feel like doing myself. For example, I often have to respond to emails or draft paragraphs for letters. With Grammarly I can easily write a very rough draft, provide a framework for what I would like to improve, and and receive something that can slightly modified and send. I also appreciate that this is optional, as I can also use Grammarly for academic papers and assignments which rely on no usage of AI. I couldn't function without it.

I also like that Grammarly is well integrated within multiple applications and feels seamless to use all across my daily computer usage, while still being fast and responsive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Grammarly?

The pricing is steep, I rarely find myself recommending Grammarly to students who would likely benefit from it. Due to the pricing I normally reserve recommending the program to professionals already working in the field. I am willing to justify the cost because I find it very helpful but if finances get tight I may avoid resubscribing when I leave academia. I also find myself getting confused with the UI/UX and find myself frequently having to trial different buttons until I find the feature I'm looking for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Invaluable Tool for Error-Free Writing"
5/5
What do you like best about Grammarly?

I really appreciate how Grammarly is kind of invisible. It’s not something I have to think about; it just works when I write emails and blogs. It's seamlessly baked into the browser as an extension in Chrome, and it doesn't have a big impact on website loading times or performance, which is fantastic. I use it mainly for checking and correcting spelling and grammatical mistakes, helping me write cleaner and more concise business emails, documentation, and even blogs. It’s a big improvement over built-in spell checkers, and it has made me a better writer because I tend to get things right the first time more often now, which is cool. The grammatical tools are very helpful, and it helps me refine technical emails to make more sense to others. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Grammarly?

I used to rely on Grammarly's sentiment analysis, but I don't really pay much attention to that anymore. There's also the feature for organizing documents and drafts, and I don't really use that much anymore. And there are a lot more AI features than there used to be, but I just don't really use them.

"Grammarly Makes Everyday Writing More Professional and Error-Free"
5/5
What do you like best about Grammarly?

My favorite part about Grammarly is the writing assistance feature. It allows me to finish up sentences quickly and rewrite sentences to make them more professional. I use Grammarly every day, especially when writing emails, it makes it easy to clean up punctuation or spelling errors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Grammarly?

There are times when the Grammarly bubble may be in an inconvenient spot, and the other locations I can move it to are not much further than its original location, so it can be in the way at times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Versatile Writing Assistance with Glitches"
4/5
What do you like best about Grammarly?

I like that Grammarly can be used everywhere. It's really convenient to have it on my desktop and with Overleaf, because it provides writing assistance wherever I need it. I also appreciate its automatic text checking, which helps me quickly correct my writing. It aids in my learning too since when I reread and see what Grammarly suggests, I understand the right way to write. The recommendations are usually very good, making it a great improvement on my writing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Grammarly?

I've had some problems with the overlay with the Overleaf app, or the add-on on Overleaf. Sometimes it lags behind the text, and when you approve some edits, it will just basically copy something on top of another edit, and the final result will be wrong. It doesn't work very well. I end up writing it myself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
