Overall Satisfaction with Grammarly

Everyone in our company has the ability to use the free version of Grammarly, but I have made a personal decision to buy the premium version because I write so much in my position. We use it when writing blogs, PR pitches, emails, client reports, and pretty much anything with words! Over the last few years, Grammarly has expanded its integrations so it can be used on Google Docs as well which has been helpful.
  • Catching misspellings.
  • Suggesting alternative words.
  • Recommending commas.
  • The "sentiment" indicator can be off sometimes. It will occasionally say something is aggressive sounding when it clearly isn't.
  • The free version will sometimes pop up with a "are you sure you want to send that email?" inquiry because it's trying to sell you the premium version.
  • Every once in a while, the synonym function doesn't show up when you double-click a word.
  • Catching misspellings.
  • Suggesting punctuation to make sentences more readable.
  • The double-click feature to get synonym suggestions.
  • It helps keep our client communication clear and free of misspellings.
  • When writing long-form blogs it is very helpful to have suggestions of other words on hand to keep them from being repetitive, thus making it more effective content.
  • It gives us the peace of mind that any major errors in emails, content, or reports will have a "second set of eyes" of sorts.
I honestly don't have any experience with other, similar products! Aside from typical spellcheck on Microsoft Word - and Grammarly has a ton more functions.

Grammarly is great! I would recommend it to anyone in a professional setting, honestly. It's especially helpful if you write a lot in your job. However, it also works on emails so even if you just use the free version for professional communication I think it is worth installing. I can't really land on a situation in which it wouldn't be appropriate if you use a computer! Unless the little red underlines bother you when you misspell something!
