### "Best online tool for Latex"

August 3, 2021

5.0

It is the best text editing online cloud I have ever used.

Pros

The best feature of overleaf is perhaps its autofill function.

Cons

Sometimes it fails to recompile relatively larger documents.

### "A help for the publishers"

January 3, 2025

4.0

My overall experience has been a mix as it was a very helpful tool in the past but with recent updates it has made me feel somewhat unsatisfied.

Pros

The ease of working on projects together with your peers and the free version of it.

Cons

Overleaf stalls for larger documents and has over a period of time somewhat degraded in performance.

### "It is far too expensive for what it offers."

September 17, 2025

1.0

\* Online LaTeX Overleaf’s LaTeX features are impressive. You can choose among various TeX Live engines, including the 2023 version used by ArXiv. There are quirks—for instance with \*xr-hyper\* —but the support team provided a \*latexmkrc\* file that resolved the issue. On this front I would award 10 out of 10. It is ideal for casual users who prefer not to install LaTeX locally and want documents in the cloud. That said, today’s PCs have ample storage and fast connections, so installing LaTeX and a capable editor is hardly an ordeal. \* Editor Overleaf offers two editors. The visual one is decent, giving a rough preview of the final result. The source editor, however, is poor—especially compared with Emacs+AUCTeX. Inserting environments with automatic labels is almost nonexistent, which makes writing longer documents cumbersome. Here I would give 4 out of 10. \* Collaboration This is where I expected Overleaf to excel, and where it disappointed most. There are no notifications of changes. Share a document, and when your collaborator edits it, you will not know unless you check manually. Support did not answer my query on this point. Since I have better things to do than constantly refresh Overleaf, this alone rules it out for serious collaboration. The paid Standard version offers GitHub integration, which partly mitigates the notification problem, though only clumsily. Even the tracking feature in the paid standard version is weak, the professional version is supposed to be better, but at €46 per month, unappealing. \*\* As for GitHub integration: - Overleaf supports Git but not Mercurial (though \*hg-git\* works well enough). - Branches are not supported; inconvenient, but survivable. - Private repositories are allowed, which is a plus. - Access is smooth. \*\* Notifications, However, remain unsolved. When you turn on watching for your GitHub repository, you receive email notifications if someone with write access pushes. You will not, however, be notified when you push yourself. With some additional configuration—by placing a script in =$yourrepository/.github/workflows/push-notify.yml= and adjusting the settings—you can ensure that every push, whether by the owner or a collaborator, generates notifications to a defined list of users. This seems a solution to the problem, but in practice it is not. \*\* No change of commiting author possible Yet your Overleaf collaborators can push to your github repository but they \*cannot change the author\* of a commit, even though Git and Mercurial explicitly allow this. Again, the support team did not reply to my request. To be clear: if it were possible to commit under another author and push, git’s built-in change tracking would suffice, since each commit carries its author. Without this, meaningful tracking is almost impossible. \* Verdict \*\* Scientific collaboration Overleaf is unsuitable for serious collaboration: Because 1. no notifications; 2. minimal change tracking; 3. GitHub integration missing essential features. While better tracking may indeed be tricky to implement, I fail to see why Overleaf cannot add the option to push to GitHub under a different user. That would be straightforward. It would also address the notification problem—at least for those prepared to tinker with GitHub—and an email-based alert system hardly seems beyond reach. \*\* Teaching and sharing short documents It might be useful for teaching, where several lectures want to share short documents. \* Alternatives As for alternatives: some people use Dropbox, but that offers no tracking and no safeguards against conflicting edits. For me the best—and free—solution remains: + a proper local TeX Live installation, with the editor of one’s choice; + a version-control system such as Git or Mercurial (I find Mercurial’s branching model easier than Git’s); + a private repository on GitHub, GitLab or Helix. Users need only learn the basics—clone, commit, push, pull/fetch and perhaps merge. Decent graphical front-ends exist, such as SourceTree (Windows/macOS) or TortoiseHg (Linux). The drawback is that at least one collaborator must have a solid grasp of Git or Mercurial to resolve conflicts. Most scientists, especially mathematicians, work conservatively, often in pairs or trios, and follow sequential editing, which largely avoids clashes, but how they track changes remains mysterious to me.

Pros

In brief: its online LaTeX features are excellent. There are quirks—for instance with \*xr-hyper\* —but the support team provided a \*latexmkrc\* file that resolved the issue. On this front I would award 10 out of 10. It is ideal for casual users who prefer not to install LaTeX locally and want documents in the cloud.

Cons

Its source editor mediocre, and its collaboration tools barely implemented. At €22 a month, it is far too expensive for what it offers.

### "Overleaf makes Latex easy for everyone"

September 8, 2021

5.0

I started using Overleaf 2 years ago while searching for collaboration document creation tools. At first I was scared of transitioning to LaTeX, because I wasn't familiar with it. However, Overleaf has a very user - friendly environment and makes LaTeX easy for everyone! I have to mention that I never had to google a single question on how to use Overleaf, even on day one. Also, their data-driven autocomplete makes you comfortable with LaTeX in a very small amount of time! After a couple of times using Overleaf, I felt completely comfortable with both the environment and the language and I haven't stopped using it since then!

Pros

I started using Overleaf for my university reports and now I can't imagine myself using a different software for document creation. One of my favorite features is the autocomplete of latex commands. It makes it easy for everyone to use it even if they haven't used latex before and saves you a lot of time typing. It is also very easy to use when collaborating with others, since you can simultaneously edit the same file and view their changes real time without pressing any button. Finally, Overleaf has an incredible documentation. A great example of this is that every Latex-related search query in Google returns an answer on Overleaf's documentation page.

Cons

One of the limiting aspects of Overleaf is the small number of free collaborators. Even though you can send the edit link to any number of people, you can only add one collaborator by their email for free and thus have the project at their home page. Also, sometimes the pdf render takes weirdly long to finish, but it always looks good!

Switched from

[Google Docs](https://www.capterra.com/p/160756/Google-Docs/)

I used to work on group projects with Google Docs by Google, since it is one of the most popular collaboration tools available for free. However, there was a very limited amount of templates and it was hard to find a suitable one, not to mention creating one from scratch. Overleaf on the other hand offers a vast number of templates for a variety of purposes. Also, it is very easy to customize them and bring them to your needs. In addition to that, it allows real time collaboration, and also features an amazing data-driven autocomplete that saves you a lot of time!

### "Best tool to prepare research papers for scientific publications"

July 6, 2022

5.0

In a word, Overleaf makes my life easy while preparing articles for publication. Simply a best tool for researcher's around the world.

Pros

To prepare research article, overleaf helps to prepare the document quickly by providing ready made journal or conference templates. Just need to customize them. Also for preparing CV overleaf is a great tool to anyone who looking for jobs.

Cons

It's fully online and cost is relatively high for students. It needs to be affordable to everyone so that anyone could use the full of this tool. Writing equation is difficult.

### "Powerful tool, not exactly intuitive "

January 23, 2024

4.0

Pros

Once you get the hang of it, it’s is a really powerful tool for editing text, formulas and references. In addition to it, it has plenty of good templates which will do just fine for any academic style piece of work. It can also produce presentations.

Cons

Having used Word for most of my work, Overleaf is much less intuitive. The presentations I have managed to produce have style wise have a very 1995 look.

### "Simplifies submissions and revisions, with change tracking to everyone."

September 5, 2025

4.0

Revisions came together more quickly because comments, diffs, and built‑out PDFs existed side by side, eliminating back‑and‑forth and keeping figures and tables in sync.

Pros

Live preview and track changes keep typography in its place and edits repeatable, while visual editor enables non‑LaTeX collaborators to inspect without fighting markup.

Cons

More sophisticated tracking and history can be had at paid levels, and email invitations or roles must be configured carefully in multi‑journal teams.

### "Convenient online latex tool"

December 26, 2024

5.0

I have a very good experience with Overleaf which is free and convenient to use. It can be accessed whenever I have internet access. The project organization is really clear and neat. Overleaf also offers templates which are very helpful. The free plan allows one collaborator per project which is okay for most of my projects.

Pros

It can be easily accessed online anywhere.

Cons

It is not completely clear which tex script is compiled when there are more than one tex script.

### "Save time and money using Overleaf, a great document generating/editing tool"

February 13, 2023

5.0

Overall, I am happy with Overleaf. I use the free version for adding collaborators to my scientific papers. They can modify, comment, and edit the document simultaneously. Also, I use Overleaf for generating CVs, resumes, and study plans.

Pros

The most useful feature that Overleaf provides is the document sharing feature. Several users can connect simultaneously and edit/modify the docuement. It saves your data in a cloud, and you can access it whenever you want for modification. You can compile your document into a PDF version that is suitable for submission to conferences and journals. It provides various templates and example documents that I find useful. You can be more efficient and productive using Overleaf.

Cons

I can not think of any essential dislikes. The only thiong I can mention is that the free version of Overleaf has limitations. You can only share your doments with limited number of users in the free version. The premium version is kind of pricy for students and personal use.

### "Overleaf for writing thesis"

December 9, 2022

5.0

Pros

As a graduate student, I have found Overleaf to be an indispensable tool for writing and collaborating on research papers. The ability to easily share and edit documents with my co-authors has made the writing process much smoother and more efficient. I also appreciate the intuitive interface and the wide range of templates available for formatting our papers.

Cons

I have found that the platform can be slow and unresponsive at times, which can be frustrating when trying to make quick edits to a document. Additionally, the free version of the software has limited features and storage, which can be limiting for users with large or complex projects.

### "Best online Latex editor "

September 8, 2022

Pros

It is easy to use, has most of the templates I need, it has latex help with all details.

Cons

The only thing I don't like about overleaf is the error it gives you when you do a wrong coding and can't find it and it can't help you

### "Perfect LaTeX editor"

July 9, 2021

5.0

I really love Overleaf for its ease of writing in code, its cloud storage of projects and its ability to share them.

Pros

I love that Overleaf brings me the option of make my LaTeX projects online with no need to install any software. In my opinion I think it's a good idea to have my projects saved in the cloud and that if for some reason my computer is turned off, even the last letter I wrote is saved. I've been using Overleaf since mid-2019 to do my college homework. For someone studying a career in the scientific area, especially someone who usually works with many mathematical terms and equations, Overleaf is perfect for its ease of writing in code, even if you make mistakes it perfectly compiles the code and does not make any mistakes, as would normally happen if you work with LaTeX software.

Cons

The only detail I don't like about Overleaf is that it doesn't let you share your projects with more than one person.

### "Great product for document preparation. Highly recommended"

June 5, 2025

5.0

Overall great experience for small documents/research articles. However, when the size of the document becomes large, we have to buy the product which can be costly.

Pros

It is a great product to write scientific papers and provides all the power of LATEX combined with cloud features where I don't have to worry about project management.

Cons

The features are a bit costly. They should have a feature for students for unlimited use. If compiling large document in free version, using overleaf can be a pain.

### "Overleaf is an excelent for preparing reports, papers, assignements, and online collaboration"

February 22, 2023

5.0

Overall, I am totally happy with Overleaf. I believe it is the best software for preparing docuemtns with version control, and reviewing it. It is very affordabel and it helps you to save a lot of time. Moreover, your data is not going to be lost. It is always stored in a cloud storage and you can access it through Internet.

Pros

I love working with Overleaf. I always use it for my work, and there are so many advantages it offers. Here I will mention a couple of them:The version control feature in Overleaf is great. You can always prepare your doment with automatic version control for specific conferences, journals. It also provide so many templates for preparing presentations. I use Overleaf now to prepare presentations instead of using Microsoft Power Point. Also, you can always control permission/access of users. Sometimes I share my document as a read-only doc to my colleagues just because I do not want them to edit it on their own. Another feature I find very useful is the history of changes it provides. I cna always see what changes/modifications the users applied to the document. Writing equations, and adding biblography files to Overleaf is very easy. The final document that Overleaf generate is very readable and perfect. I recommend using Overleaf to professionals who need a docuement preparation and collaboration application.

Cons

I do not have many dislikes. The only things I can mention are as follows:The number of collaborators you are allowed to invite will depend on the plan you are part of. You can not share your document to more that 3 collaborators in Overleaf free version. However, the paid version totally worth it if you prepare docuements more often at work. You do not have the option of working on the docuement offline. You always need access to the internet and a browser like firefox, microsoft edge, etc to open Overleaf.

### "Overleaf is an excelent online tool for preparing professional documents"

February 13, 2023

5.0

Overall, I am fully satisfied with Overleaf. I use it all the time for preparing scientific documents, sharing them with other colleagues, proofreading documents, and generating appropriate PDF files for conferences and journals. It is a great online toolsuite. I recommend it to everyone, especially to researchers, students, and professors.

Pros

Overleaf features autocorrection, which is very useful for docuement preparation. You can prepare a neat PDF file out of your LaTex document in no time. It includes lots of templates for writing CVs, resumes, white papers, scientific conference papers, journals, etc. It helps you be more productive, and write more efficiently. Also, you can create your bibliography database in Overleaf; you can edit, modify, or change this bibliography file whenever. You can always save all your data in the tool, and access it through internet to apply modifications or changes later. It is also a free tool.

Cons

I do not have any specific dislike about Overleaf. The only thing I can mention is that the user needs to write in LaTex format in Overleaf. Therefore, novice users might find it hard to use it. It would be better if it was more user-friendly, and it could provide easy manuals.

### "A convenient online LaTeX editor and compiler"

September 16, 2022

5.0

Everyone I have collaborated with is very positive about Overleaf. So am I. I am using it regularly.

Pros

Since I started using Overleaf, I don't have offline LaTeX editor installed in my computer any more. Collaboration in writing articles together with my colleagues is the main reason why I use Overleaf. I cannot think of a better alternative for such collaborative work, especially during the pandemic when we had to work from home. Overleaf is not only easy to use, it also provides other functionalities such as track changes, history and notes that greatly enhance my LaTeX editing experience. Templates are available and easy to save into personal folders.

Cons

Like all other online platforms, Overleaf cannot be accessed offline. When internet connection is not stable, the edit may not be saved.

### "Overleaf review"

December 16, 2021

5.0

Global experience: I have created countless reports and presentations over many years of use. This software has helped me a lot in my years of study. It is in which I wrote my homework and carried out my project presentations and it is also the software in which I was able to carry out my study projects. It takes a little practice to really master it, but once you’ve spent quality time working with this software, you can do great things.

Pros

Benefits: Overleaf is a simple tool for reporting and editing presentations with an interface that is “what you see is what you get”. It is also a software for writing courses, articles, graduation reports use a lot by students and mathematics teachers. It also makes it easy to write mathematical formulas with codes that are quite simple to write and syntax that is quite easy to learn. It is in this case very versatile, which allows users to do much more than articles and presentations. It makes it possible to make graphs and diagrams.

Cons

Disadvantages: Like all typing and writing software, Overleaf has its eccentricities. It could be more user-friendly, which is where some of the competing writing and presentation applications well. It is absolutely not good for the creation of original art or illustrations.

### "The most complete and easy to use LATEX editor"

December 5, 2022

5.0

I have been using this since I was in university taking advanced pure mathematics proof based classes where vast majority of assignments require me to write math proof using LATEX on this platform and I still use it even until today where I work as a product engineer where I regularly use it for brief documentation of production process flow and procedure. My overall impression with Overleaf has been mostly positive due to its easy to use dashboard and efficient tools to create Latex document. Occasionally, I also use other feature to convert document form, etc.

Pros

What I like the most from Overleaf is its user friendly interface and high quality editor tools even for me who was not familiar with LATEX syntax/format before. Particularly, the feature which allows the user to write the LATEX on the left side of the screen while seeing the output on the right side of the screen which enables me to write few lines then compile it so on and so forth in order to detect documentation error early in the process. In addition to that, Overleaf also has a great and useful feature to allow sharing the file with other users however it keeps the security and privacy fully protected

Cons

Despite the fact that Overleaf has a lot to offer, however, I had an issue with its error correcting feature/ error handling, when I attempt to compiled it but if failed, nevertheless, there was not clear explanation or hint to highlighted the LATEX error exactly. This might be pretty concerning especially for users with limited knowledge in Latex.

### "Un outil magnifique pour écrire en LATEX"

January 27, 2023

5.0

Overleaf a été d'une aide précieuse pour moi lorsque j'ai commencé à apprendre LaTeX. Meilleure plateforme recommandée pour les débutants.

Pros

Les fonctionnalités d'Overleaf sont excellentes. Il est facile à utiliser. La fonction en ligne d'Overleaf permet à plusieurs contributeurs d'un même projet de travailler simultanément sur ce dernier. On peut voir le document de résultat en le compilant immédiatement. J'apprécie beaucoup les tutoriels simples et efficaces sur leur site. Ses tutoriels sont interminables et très instructifs avec des exemples.

Cons

Mon expérience avec Overleaf a été incroyable mais nous ne recevons pas souvent des suggestions utiles et devons donc faire des essais fréquents, ce qui entraîne une perte de temps. La fonction de correction grammaticale n'est pas très utile.

Pros

The tool offers ease of use for the creation of documents. The formatting of documents is fairly simple. You don't need to struggle with the tool. Easy to learn and use. No installation is needed.

All the templates are available online. No need to download any sort of templates or Latex packages. All the changes are seamlessly being saved simultaneously.

Cons

There is no offline version available to create documents. You cannot track changes or update changes that are done offline. There is no feature that syncs offline changes when you go online.

### "Best Latex tool for writing journal or conference articles in online"

July 6, 2022

5.0

I am highly pleased with the performance of Overleaf in my research paper writing purposes. It serves as a daily tool for any researcher around the globe.

Pros

As an active researcher, I like to use Overleaf online for preparing my research papers. It gives me a lot of flexibility to control the version, customize the document, to add all kinds of components to the document. Therefore I didn't find any alternative to Overleaf.

Cons

It needs an active internet connection all the time. Sometimes the server didn't respond. Therefore, make some delays to update the files. The cloud server should be better in the future.

Overall I am thankful to the provider for give me this opportunity to write the review of this software. It is undoubtedly best software and never down. It works online fully and you can track your co authors easily from remote location. Multiple author can be work at the same time only if you order this

Pros

Mainly researchers like me using this as an alternative of actual Latex software this is because Latex is complex to use and overleaf is easy to use

Cons

It is fully online and paid software so academic software like this should be freely available
