    ProWritingAid
    • Fully equipped - the ProWritingAid tool gives you almost all the writing control you could ever need or want.
    • Ease of use - The ProWritingAid app has an intuitive dashboard and all the features and functionalities listed on the top bar. This writing assistant for online users offers you a great way to improve the content in just a few minutes.
    • Price: Compared to other online editing programs with grammar checkers like Grammarly, Ginger. ProWritingAid Premium is only $ 60 a year, which is affordable for most people.
    • Integrate Scrivener and Google docs - We've been waiting for this for a long time. Especially those who use Scrivener. Gdocs is not supported, yet the ProWritingAid fix on your text within your document makes it easier for you.
    • Style Editor - Comes with an attractive writing and editing tool.

    Cons
    Discontinued Products
    • A lot of the features in Percolate are very well built, but only provide the bare minimum as features go. Its editorial calendar for example lacks export/import features and its multimedia repository only supports images. In many ways, Percolate is trying very hard to be too much at the same time.
    • At the moment, Percolate lacks user level management. We can add users who need to be moderated before posting, but it is for example not possible to add users just for one specific function (like the multimedia database).

    • One of the websites I visit has troubles with the addon.
    • Another typical issue is that some of the "correction lines" that appear under the text do not match.
    • The only drawback is that in order to get good content, you must copy and paste it into a new document in My Home for ProWritingAid.

    Percolate is a great tool for us, because we need the approval process workflows. The training was great when we first signed on, and the interface is very user friendly. We have trained our interns to use it as well with no issues. It makes keeping up with our content calendar a breeze and we can easily see what posts have been approved and which ones are still pending at a quick glance

    Implementation Rating

    Rarely has a company shown this much support during implementation. This almost got to the point where it was too much hand holding. Sometimes, social teams just want the keys to the car so they can drive it themselves instead of waiting on someone to drive along with them...

    Percolate and Falcon have many similarities and provide many of the same features, however Percolate felt a bit more robust than Falcon, although it does come with a higher price tag to match. Both platforms are excellent for content approval workflows, content scheduling, and community management. Percolate offers additional features such as an Asset Management Library and a section for creative briefs and collaboration with internal teams.

    Return on Investment

    • Percolate has made it much easier to communicate between teams and has provided a return on investment in that area in particular.
    • Percolate also helps save time because you are able to schedule social media posts across channels easily.
    • It has also been an easy way to work with remote team members, which is very helpful.

    • ProWritingAid is perfect if you have words that you use regularly that are not correct words, such as brand names, slang, or abbreviations. It is not necessary to correct each of these errors, just by clicking on "add to dictionary" ProWritingAid reminds that that word has to pass.
