Very easy to use and promote to others. Pros VT writer's ease of use. Scoring is an excellent guide to further improve our content. Cons Scores used for French language not adapted to reality. Number of syllables to determine readability is unrealistic. Switched from [Microsoft Word](https://www.capterra.com/p/227146/Microsoft-Word/) More functionalities. Ease of use. Intel you get with the scores. Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site. All submitted reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor July 11, 2024 Hi Susie, Suki here from the VT Customer Success team. Thanks for your feedback - it is extremely valuable to us and I appreciate you highlighting the importance of VT Writer for your day-to-day job. I talked to our engineering team and they wanted to clarify. Here's what they told me: "VT Writer actually uses a readability measure called LIX (uses a character counting algorithm, rather than a syllable counting algo) for non-English language scoring. And then we map this to grade level. We do this so you can have an apples for apples comparison and use "Grade Level" as the comparison point." So, the French language text is actually not using syllable counts. I'll reach out and explain further. Thanks again for your feedback! SS Susan S. Senior Web Writer Government Administration ### "Essential tool for editing for plain language" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 May 28, 2024 Awesome software, and the people at VT are great - super responsive and helpful. Pros I edit web content, usually for the general public (Grade 6-8). I love that VT Writer can quickly assess the before and after reading levels of entire documents or even sentences or paragraphs. It helps me tailor content to specific audiences. It also helps me convince clients that my edits are effective when I can show them before and after VT assessments. Cons I wish it worked better with Word documents in progress (ie heavily marked up text). As it is, I have to save a copy, accept all changes, and then submit that clean document to VT Writer.

Response from Vendor July 11, 2024 Hi Susan, thanks very much for your feedback! Glad to hear that you love VT Writer and it's helping you with your tasks.

Senior Communication Strategist Insurance ### "Clarifying Content and Building Credibility" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 March 23, 2021 Installing the software and moving from on-premise to cloud and training our staff has all gone smoothly thanks to the personal service we’ve experienced from day one. After using Visible Thread the past few years, we have seen increased adoption and reverence for clear or plain language. Most importantly, regular use of Visible Thread Docs and Writer established a strong trend of improving customer communications. Pros The software itself is intuitive. It was easy to onboard our team members into regular users. The ability to provide annotated documents is helping our communicators understand basic elements of clear language and put them to use. The reporting functions allow us to show credible reasons to edit flawed documents and share measurable improvements after editing. Cons We have not found any real issues with the software. If we do, I am confident our Visible Thread reps will be open and available to resolving it with us promptly.

NB Niamh B. Michael MacCormac Professor of Management Education Management ### "My views on VT Readability software" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 0.0 0.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 September 27, 2020 My experience was excellent. The software is easy to use and highlights opportunities for improvement in a user-friendly manner. Pros I ran my UCD MBA Reporting Writing notes through the software and was embarrassed to find so many weaknesses in my writing. The software was great in highlighting the weaknesses, and I was able to improve my notes considerably. I have since recommended two junior academics to run their papers through the software. They will learn a lot from the exercise. Cons I used the free trial. The cost of $65/month is too pricy for academics operating on tight budgets. I would like to use the software for all my writing, for a reasonably priced annual subscription targeted at individuals.

AM Ann M. Content Strategist Financial Services ### "One of my favourite tools" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 January 27, 2020 Pros Our content specialists love using Visible Thread Readability for auditing and updating our digital content. We’re responsible for three large websites sites and two mobile apps. The sites in particular have a fair amount of content that doesn't meet our current brand standards; some content is old, some adopted from other businesses in mergers, some written by SMEs who are not writers, etc. Traditionally, content has taken a back seat to visual design, but VT Readability helps us to make a strong case for content improvements. We’ve been using Readability on projects that are currently in flight, as well as using it for audits to make a case for projects that we’d like to get on our roadmap. When executives and stakeholders see the before and after numbers, and big red vs. green boxes, they’re shocked into seeing deficiencies that they didn’t see before. They finally understand that our content recommendations aren’t simply subjective. For example, we’ve been able to show that large drop-off points in an application form correlated to content with poor readability scores, and showed how we could improve readability and by extension, reduce application drop-offs. The tool helps us create content that meets our friendlier voice and tone guidelines, and especially to meet AODA/WCAG accessibility requirements, which is vital in our regulated industry. It also helps us improve our SEO, and helps us to make our content more mobile friendly. Our editors really like using the Edit f Cons No real cons, but a couple of expansions we’d love to see: A Canadian dictionary would be great, and the ability to scan site sections the way we can with the current VT Web.
