"Effortless Formula Integration with Beautiful Templates"
What do you like best about LaTeX?

It allows me to integrate chemical and mathematical formulas into my texts easily and with an especially aesthetic appearance. It also helps me structure my writing effectively using its templates Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LaTeX?

At the beginning, learning the commands, especially for customizing graphs can be complicated, and understanding the structure may be difficult. This means it takes some time and practice before one can finally use it effectively Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Latex for document preparation"
What do you like best about LaTeX?

Latex is very helpful for preparing the documents. It has high quality typesetting system. Which makes you feel so ease on formatting the document. In this you can add all the packages in one file and include the files and run. So no need to add the packages in all the files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LaTeX?

If the document as more files, then it takes more time to compile. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best math typsetting language"
What do you like best about LaTeX?

You can write math very fast and it takes zero time to learn. Every person writting math or code should learn it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LaTeX?

The installation is sometimes a bit timeconsuming however recently it has become much easier even for language packages. There are also solutions to run it online eg overleaf Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The ONLY document preparation system you will ever need"
What do you like best about LaTeX?

I would like to declare that I am writing this review from the perspective of someone who does not have extensive coding experience. LaTeX has been a fantastic package to use. I would suggest its formatting as its best feature. Formatting in LaTeX goes hand in hand with its magnitude of customizability. It is very different than "What you see is what you get" editors. Instead, it is a "What you make is what you get" software package. To every detail of a document, you have virtually unlimited control for the appearance of your document. Margins are easy to figure out and the document that you create will look better than any document you have created using other editors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LaTeX?

There is not much to dislike about LaTeX, but it does have its cons. For example, if you were to send over a document to a colleague for editing, unless they are familiar with the software package, they may not know how to edit your document. The power of collaboration in LaTeX is only possible when involved in a group with similar expertise. Also, there is no way for LaTeX to suggest alternatives for spelling errors. Documents are intended to be meticulously crafted in LaTeX and may not be quickly altered in a rush. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"LaTeX, take the total control of what you write"
What do you like best about LaTeX?

Writing scientific texts with latex is easy and totally recommended. Latex offers its main power when you need to write formulas because you can include any symbol. Thus, you can write complex equations easily. You only need patience.

The general aspect of a text written with Latex seems more professional than the result from using other products. Besides, reading a text made with Latex is more comfortable.

One of the main advantages of latex is the community behind it. If you find any problem, you can google the error and you will find several solutions to your problem.

Finally, you can export from Latex to other formats like pdf, ps, HTML, and so on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LaTeX?

Latex is not WYSIWYG. This makes it a little bit hard to write texts. Sometimes, the help for specific commands is incomplete and difficult to find. Finally, sometimes you need to include some effect or special feature, available in Latex, but it is difficult.

Latex does not include grammar or spell checking. If you want it, you need to install a good tool for using Latex. The better the tool, the easier it to write texts. In fact, I recommend using Latex with a tool instead of using a plain text editor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"How critical LaTeX is ?"
What do you like best about LaTeX?

To start with, LaTeX is a software tool that helps to write books, letters, reports, and articles using codes and through my experiences with Latex, the best point is " you learn a new language that includes code" also it is a feature that separate math and physic people from biology and other areas of study. In addition, it expands your knowledge and leads you to explore new things such as finding the solution of a problem in two ways rather than one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LaTeX?

The main point that anyone should concern about is that using LatTeX is frustrating because at some point you struggle with finding an error that occurred in your codes and that may take hours or even days. Or students asking you to write their research paper and keep annoying you with fixing this, arranging that, writing that example, proving that theorem. Giving each chapter a name and changing the deadline of their project 2 or 3 hours before the deadline. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very helpful in my work. (Software Engineering)"
What do you like best about LaTeX?

I like the fact that latex makes it very easy to write mathematics-related things. To be honest, Latex has been a great tool for my day-to-day work like software documentation, software design, and stuff. I would recommend the product to others as well. The documents i create with Latex are more informative and easy to understand than other documents. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LaTeX?

I have not found anything that is dislikable. Almost all the features have been pretty useful for me. So there is nothing at the moment that I dislike about this great tool. I would give 10/10 to the tool with my current experience with it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
