### "The ultimate grammar and syntax correction software!"

September 29, 2022

5.0

I find Antidote to be a great tool for correcting errors. I have used it in my personal and professional writing and have been very pleased with the results. The program is easy to use and has improved the quality of my writing considerably. I highly recommend it to anyone who, like me, wants to improve their writing skills.

Pros

I use Antidote to write my product sheets, and I can say that it is a powerful correction software, which offers me plenty of features to help me produce quality content, that is to say clear, coherent and neat text. With tools like dictionaries and detectors that help me find and correct errors quickly and easily, I can focus on my text. Antidote is really essential to my work.

Cons

Antidote can be slow to work and in that case, it requires the use of a faster computer but overall, it is an excellent software that is very useful in my daily work.

### "The ultimate tool to bring your writing to perfection"

July 29, 2022

5.0

Since I have Antidote my writing process have accelerated with serenity. This product is powerful and fast. There so many features. I love multiple personal dictionaries. The browser extension is active on all my browser. I can correct WordPress content with ease and all I wrote on the web too. Now I can't work without Antidote. It is my writing companion.

Pros

Connectix feature is awesome. Antidote is always there to help you on your favorites tools. It integrates smoothly through Office 365 and your web application through the browser extension.

Cons

It is difficult to find one. The price is high. I think Antidote + program is not affordable for student or people with low ressources. But they have, maybe, a special pricing for students.

Cordial broke my manuscript at many times. And it was too complex to install (and remove).

### "A product I wish I made better use of"

March 18, 2022

4.0

Some colleagues swear by it, which is the reason I purchased it, but I am not going to renew. It's just not providing any benefits to me.

Pros

Although Antidote seems very powerful and has a lot of features, I have yet to really make use of them. In particular, the integration with Mac Mail is constantly buggy. When it works, about all it does it remind me to send attachments, usually not when I actually need to.

Cons

In spite of having taken a seminar on this product at a conference, I still can't seem to wrap my head around how to use it to its capacity. It's like a Jaguar in the driveway for a person without a driver's license.

### "Antidote is needed in the arsenal of anyone who writes... so everyone!"

September 1, 2022

5.0

Pros

The main attraction of the software to me has been the accuracy and the contextualization of the recommendations. It uses context when suggesting word or sentence modification, and also explain the reason why so that you may take the best final decision.

Cons

Sometimes, I wish it had more smart writing features rather than serving as just a proofreading software. It should be a companion when I write, not only after the fact.

### "Antidote\_Review"

October 22, 2023

4.0

Pros

Antidote combines a corrector and a dictionary in one that facilitates proofreading and documents review. One could easily navigate and make replacement, automatic correction, and much more. There are also suggestions for the underlined words, explanations that helps to get out of doubts.

Cons

Everything is almost perfect but if they could include other languages such as Spanish, German,.., it will be perfect. There some underlined words or phrases for which there are no suggestions. Same for the category of style, it will be good if they can make suggestions for it

### "Great product"

October 31, 2023

5.0

Overall, I love this software. It has helped me improve both my French and English spelling, grammar and sentence structure.

Pros

Easy to use with Outlook email, and Word. Can correct both French and English even in the same message. It also has a large synonym library.

Cons

Sometimes, it will make an error that you have to ignore because the analysis does not understand your meaning, but nothing to be annoyed. The benefits out way the small errors.

### "A very comprehension solution worth your money"

April 1, 2022

4.0

Antidote was a life-saver when I took my professional translator course to proofread my translations. It has been a powerful companion that saved my work more than once. I would recommend the tool to any serious writer.

Pros

Antidote is easy to use and gives you all the feedback you need to know and more (language, typography and style correction) in a very sophisticated way (I haven't seen any other app that beats it) I also like the fact that both the French and English dictionaries work together (you don't need to use two different apps) to the same standard. I use antidote to write academic or professional papers as I trust the feedback.

Cons

I'd like to see more app integration similar to what Grammarly offers: integrated to email, messages ...with on-the-spot correction (who wants to copy-paste text from their email to their corrector, and copy it back to their email...) The software remains a robot which means that you mustn't simply rely on it. I use it to double-check what I have already checked myself.

December 6, 2023

Pros

Antidote is like a bible for reviewers. It is a very good assistant that is very helpful in proofreading. We easily integrate it to word, browser, notepad,... Its numeral tools such as dictionary, corrector, integrated visual, language suggestion, typography and style make it a god. It is very

Cons

The weaknesses are that, sometimes, the suggestions are not consistent and there are several words unknown to it. They need to perform a great update to correct it.

### "Un indispensable pour moi."

October 2, 2024

5.0

Depuis plus de 15 ans, j'utilise ce correcteur grammatical et orthographique au quotidien. J'ai toujours acheté cette application et ces mises à jour majeures en paiement unique.

L'option Anti-Oups! qui, lors de l'envoi de mails m'a parfois évité de belles fautes !

Cons

La mise à jour après sortie du nouveau macOS se fait parfois attendre.

### "Learn before you Correct"

April 13, 2022

5.0

This is the best grammar correction software for people who travel a lot. This supports both English and French with exhaustive lexicon support.

Pros

This offline AI-based grammar software teaches grammar as you correct the sentences. It is providing very comprehensive reports like repeated words, foreign words, etc used in the document.

Cons

Sometimes it only corrects where I left last time. It is better to have an option to correct from the beginning. Also sometimes the numbering in the document messes up.

Pros

Un bon logiciel de correction orthographique et grammatical, qui, s'il n'est pas sûr de sa correction, signale une potentielle erreur et nous permet de vérifier avant validation du document. Compatible avec Word donc pratique au quotidien.

Cons

Dommage qu'il n'y ait pas de dictionnaire de rimes intégré.
