Copyscape is ideal for observing duplicates of what you write or of your pages on the web. Its characteristics are more extraordinary is "Copysentry", which sends warnings on the assumption that someone presents a forgery with its content.
  • Copyscape stands out for its simplicity.
  • On your website you can add the official banner of the page, which states that the page is protected against infringement or plagiarism by the program.
  • PDF file upload.
  • Third party integrations.
  • Copyscape does not have spell check.
Copyscape is an intuitive software, it is the right tool to identify the presence of duplicate content on the Internet. Therefore, I can analyze both the contents of entire pages on the web and specific written texts, discovering if they are unique, original texts or if there are already copies of them on the Internet.

Clear and simple interface. Its effectiveness in detecting plagiarism by comparing it with millions of pages is impressive. It is ideal to check if a certain piece of text has been replicated with the simple step of dragging and dropping the text, or copy and then pasting it on the website. The free version works quite well when all you want to achieve is plagiarism-free content.
  • Detect duplicate content in documents, providing the exact connections from where the content was extracted.
  • Track your searches.
  • Offers a free testing tool and premium service.
  • Copysentry's protection system to fully automate plagiarism detection is fantastic.
  • It is available only in English, which is a disadvantage for professionals who work in other languages.
It works well, offers great integrations for those who work with WordPress, so you know it will work perfectly as you type.

Plagiarism detection is the sole purpose of Copyscape, it can be easily used for all kinds of content, from blog posts to LinkedIn profiles and social media posts, you can also upload a PDF and DOC.
  • It is my favorite because of its simple way of operating.
  • It is quite easy to commission and someone can effortlessly execute your verification.
  • CopyScape allows you the landing page where the content is copied.
  • Copyscape uses Google and Bing to search the Internet for plagiarism.
  • Copyscape free does not allow you to post text directly from a .docx or .pdf document to its text box. This is only available if you are using Copyscape Premium.
  • Lack of mobile options.
  • Unresponsive customer service.
As far as I am concerned, it is not a tool designed for the education sector as much more effort is put into website verification than academic papers.

We use CopyScape in our organization to control whether a web page has copied content. The operation is very simple. It works like a search engine, it helps to know if the content that you acquire has not been copied or stolen from other sites and if its originality is completely true. It is made up of a free and a paid function.
  • In the free version, it gives you the ability to look page by page for plagiarism. You simply need to put in the URL and Copyscape immediately goes all over the web to verify, assuming the content of your page has been copied.
  • The paid version allows many more options. Copyscape Premium has a series of advantages that the free version does not have, such as the possibility of copying texts and pasting them in a kind of search box that specifies whether it is duplicate content or not.
  • Works offline.
  • It is a complete program that works excellent in any case.
The application allows you to scan words and detect any plagiarism in seconds. The concealer works well and is extremely fast and reliable. All students, teachers, and everyone who writes should use it daily. It is one of those applications that can be ideal for everyone who likes to write and who will write on a daily basis. Unsurprisingly, you can upload a file and scan it or you can paste it from another source.

Its interface is very simple, intuitive, and can be used very easily. Through its paid version, you can access exclusive functions that allow you to carry out more advanced analyzes. For example, you can find out which part of an analyzed text is not the original, search for similar texts throughout the Internet and make comparisons.
  • Possibility of transferring documents in various formats (PDF, DOC, DOCX, RTF, and TXT) to be examined to identify if there are copies of them on the web and where they are.
  • The "Batch Search" function allows you to crawl an entire website with a maximum of 10,000 pages, in a single process to receive continuous information by email about the progress of the crawl and its results.
  • It is only available in English, which means it cannot be used in other languages.
You can use another tool that Copyscape suggests on its own website. This is Siteliner, to improve the efficiency of your content analysis, this tool is available in the free version and in the Premium version.

Overall, I found Copyscape to be the most effective software solution among all plagiarism-checking software packages. The program really assists me ineffectively and readily verifying my own as well as others' content material. On the other hand, it enables me to examine the copy resources as well, providing me with the correct content belonging.
  • The functioning method is really straightforward.
  • The tool's price is quite low, and it also comes with certain discounts.
  • Which is certainly useful for someone who has a lot of work to confirm.
  • There is no opportunity to confirm whether or not all of the sources listed have been thoroughly reviewed.
  • No explanation of sources checked - The program does not specify which sources were reviewed.
  • There are no free sign-ups - Usually, tools allow you to enroll for free for a month or so.
In my Company has used This software Over the last ten years, I've [run] over 100k articles with Copyscape. I've looked for a successor, but I always come back to Copyscape. My volume is much lower these days. But back when Google Adsense sites were popular, I ran a LOT of stuff via them.

We currently use a variety of proofreading and plagiarism tools for our clients. As we're churning out new marketing content, we use Copyscape to track if anyone else is using our content on the web.
  • Offers a variety of forms of tracking (web, pdf, etc)
  • Avoids content duplication on your own domain
  • Scalable solutions for tracking across the web
  • UX/UI & Interface - feels a little outdated
  • Their free checker sometimes doesn't catch known instances
It does a solid job of finding plagiarisms in the copy we're getting created by third parties and also allows us to protect against copy theft which is a huge issue within the eCommerce world.
