### "The eCommerce Word Helper Deluxe "

September 14, 2021

5.0

I stumbled across it only looking for a quick word counter and encountered an editor and more that I absolutely need and use all the time. I can use it to also create my poetry and such and see all the errors immediately, then copy and paste to my real editor then manages it perfectly from there. Word Counter does not have all things like an editor does like fonts, sizes, etc, but it is not needed there anyway.

Pros

I have to write titles, keyword sections, and descriptions for the three biggest eCommerce platforms on earth because I sell print-on-demand products and do all the writing for every product. Each site has a different number of characters for each section allowed, so I write the longest ones in first, then edit them own after copy and paste below. It corrects grammar, counts characters and words, offers suggestions, saves everything for months and it is juts an online website editor. Amazing!

Cons

On rare occasions, the auto-save turns itself off and I cannot get it on right away, and sometimes when I go to the site, my last work is not there and usually is. It's not a problem, really, as I can copy from the websites I sell on and paste and use them to edit for a new product.

Switched from

[LibreOffice](https://www.capterra.com/p/158981/LibreOffice/)

I wanted something I could use in the browser and not have to open up an editor just to count characters. And it turned out to be much more than that.

### "Review on The Word Counter"

June 2, 2022

4.0

Pros

In my current field of work I see no pros to this software that I can't get from other software that I integrate in my everyday use.

Cons

This is a stand alone software and the features are basic. I would have like to see a feature that aids in the simplification of massages (i.e. sentence rephrasing) and work in conjunction with other computer applications.

### "Writing Small-Business Grants? Have The Word Counter As Part of Your Arsenal"

March 14, 2022

5.0

Pros

This was a Godsend when it came to applying for all these small-business grants. A good number of them required specific word counts, let 250 words max, no less than 1000 words, etc. Although there are a lot of word counters available, I love this one because it's free, it's online so there's nothing to download, plus you can do a simple copy/paste of your text to make sure you have the correct word count.

Cons

You can only paste so much at one time, which is understandable. If there's a lot of text that has to be counted, you may have to search for another program.

### "Submit your work with confidence!"

January 22, 2022

4.0

Pros

Word Counter is a free and easy word counter online Platform that displays the number of words, characters, sentences, paragraphs and pages. The platform allows users to paste and edit information into a notepad looking interface. The features are straightforward and easy to use. Users can toggle on or off the Grammar check and the Autosave features to pick up grammatical errors and automatically save any changes to your work. No fuss.

Cons

The platform does not offer a page by page view. It would be comforting to able to view to import and export instead of copy and paste. The document formatting features offered are very limited.

### "The best "Word Counter""

September 19, 2021

5.0

The Word Counter has the option to choose the input and output of the text when I finish typing, facilitating me when I want to direct the text output to another language, and for those like me who need to speed things up, word contact has the option of projects that help me a lot in organizing the text.

Pros

One of the most complete services of its kind, the Word Counter stands out for offering more information than its competitors. when you are logged into the platform it provides a tutorial for beginners to learn how to use all the options available on copy.ai.

Cons

It could have a version for Android, iOS or iPhone, as we are not always in contact with the notebook.

### "Improve your writing and communication skills"

April 30, 2022

4.0

Pros

The Word Counter is more than just a spell-check tool. The online platform is helpful in providing more intelligent and polished communiqués to clients and suppliers. The Word Counter not only helps me spot spelling and grammar errors, but also tracks other common errors such as misused words or punctuation, whilst providing other functionalities that allow me to keep within specific writing limits. The platform also provides additional writing tips and common grammar errors.

Cons

I wish there was an option to import a complete document and not just copy and paste.
