My mixed experience with Grammarly Business

We use it for writing emailer contect, product roadmaps, marketing messaging communications, video scripts, newsletters, landing pages content etc. I am part of the marketing team and we utilize it for writing and framing both internal and external content. Grammarly is used across Marketing, finance, legal and other ancillary teams.

Cons

  • UI is very annoying, the hovering cloud of shut down button can be avoided.
  • Very relentless in highlighting wrong grammar,the red highlights gets annoying on screen while typing.
  • Instead of real time checking, i would prefer all at once after writing my piece.

  • Clients appreciate the brevity which we can get from using Grammarly.
  • Marketing content has become more conversion oriented.
