We lost about an hours worth of writing because of this, so we strongly recommend you DO NOT install the Grammarly plugins for Microsoft Office, at least until the kinks have been worked out.
Similarly, in Word you can expect a lengthier load time and your ability to undo mistakes becomes much more limited. It does not work when writing an email unless you “pop-out” the email into a separate window, and shockingly the plugin removes your ability to undo mistakes! The plugin makes Outlook take much longer to load.
The office plugins were very disappointing. Grammarly comes in two forms browser extensions, and plugins for Microsoft Office (Word and Outlook). We spent a couple of months trialling both the basic and premium versions of Grammarly to see if they have value for people who write for the web. As the name might suggest, the premium checks require a paid subscription. Grammarly has two sets of checks a basic set and a premium set. It analyses what you write via its online algorithm rather than relying on an offline set of rules that you get on Word or the spellcheck that’s built into your browser. In this respect, Grammarly works in a similar way to Google. What is Grammarly? Have you ever tried to spell something in Microsoft Word but found that spell checker couldn’t figure out what you’re trying to say? Have you then resorted to using Google search, where you can just mash in some letters which vaguely resemble the word you’re going for? Google has no problem guessing the word that you have in mind because, unlike Microsoft Word, it draws from a live and ever-growing database of equally lazy and illiterate search queries. We take a look at Grammarly, an app designed to improve your writing
