What do you like best about LanguageTool?

I use LanguageTool both as a part of products that I develop and as a plugin to my development environment to get live feedback on my own writing. I love that it is configurable (in response to user feedback, we have tweaked many rules), multi-language, and available in an open-source project. The list of language rules available is also quite staggering, at least in English. Additionally, LanguageTool is surprisingly performant and even when I throw large chunks of text at it, it returns feedback very rapidly.

Furthermore, on the one occasion when we have raised a concern with the developers (a spelling correction that was somewhat contentious), the open-source team was responsive and pleasant to interact with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LanguageTool?

LanguageTool's flexibility comes at the cost of a learning curve. When setting up from scratch I found myself interacting with a large number of configuration files, digging through Java class hierarchies to understand how things fitted together and looking through XML files to understand exactly what triggered certain rules. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

LanguageTool helps us to embed grammar checking into places where it would otherwise be difficult for us to implement, and it has an open, simple, API to work with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
