I dislike the fact that LanguageTool does not offer real-time feedback and corrections for users. While it can be useful to have the ability to review a document before submitting it, it can be difficult to make corrections quickly and efficiently.

The auto language recognition could be better. Whenever you use two languages in the same document, it won't detect it, and one language will look as if it's all wrong. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about LanguageTool?

LanguageTool supports multiple languages, not just English! Supporting multiple languages allow me to switch between languages without switching tools too. And since LanguageTool supports browsers via extensions, has native desktop apps, and supports keyboards on mobile devices, I get consistent grammar and spellcheck across the board. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LanguageTool?

LanguageTool allows me to add new words to my personal dictionary, but doesn't allow me to classify the word and as such LanguageTool accepts words from the dictionary but disables grammar checking. Even worse, the words added are language neutral, but I added these words from a text that was written in a specific language. For example, writing about companies that use a fancy lower case company name requires adding the company name to the dictionary, but since I can't classify my dictionary additions LanguageTools starts failing to spot errors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering LanguageTool:

I got the most out of LanguageTool after installing the LanguageTool on all devices and browsers I'm using daily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is LanguageTool solving and how is that benefiting you?

LanguageTool with all its applications across platforms helps me keep a consistent writing style regardless of the language. Most of the explanations are also helpful especially for my 2nd and 3rd language. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
