More features, like integration with Dropbox and Github, are available only in the paid version. What problems are you solving with the product? What ...

Good latex editor

What do you like best? One of the main good characteristic is that you can write your work online without be afraid of losing it, moreover you can choose to share the file with other people. In this way each person can log in whenever they want and from any device. What do you dislike? When the file becomes larger you can't build it. Indeed you can build the file without imagines. Recommendations to others considering the product: According to my experience this program is ...

Bring your latex documents wherever you want!

What do you like best? The best features are portability and accessibility. You can access your document from wherever you want, given an internet connection, and you can share them between your team! Cooperative writing is an added value. What do you dislike? Usually, when documents grow bigger and bigger, with images, it becomes quite impossible to compile the document. It's fixed with a fast compiler that doesn't show the images but adds a white box with the same dimensions of the ...

Overleaf - LaTex editor

Overleaf do not compile laTex into Microsoft word doc or docx files, also do not accept to add in proofreading software like grammarly (www.grammarly.com). Since, i am not English native speaker, so i need to add in proofreading software. Also, it is more helpful to write my reports in LaTex, but i need to submit ...

Made writing papers a lot easier and more fun

What do you like best? It is an easy to use online editor. you can add as much collaborators as you want. You just have to share the link with them. There is also the tracking feature but it is for the premium version. You can easily export the latex file and give it to anyone. Also, it is full of libraries and you do not need to add your own. What do you dislike? The limit on the running time is very low. Sometimes, when you add a complex equation or high resolution picture, the ...

Best latex online editor available now.

What do you like best? It is easy to use. Online so you dont have to install anything. You can share the link and collaborate with as many as you want. Also, it support nearly all latex librarys. What do you dislike? When you add high resultion images or complicated equations, the running time increases exponentialy and sometimes you get runtime error. Also, I think it should have ita own auto correct extension. Recommendations to others considering the product: If you are ...

Write your papers with latex easily and without installing any unnecessary software

What do you like best? I like the fact that it is online, so you don't need to install any software and you can access and edit your projects from any OS browser even from your phone. It's full of features and has several library. What do you dislike? The running time in the free version is very low so if you have complex equations or high resolution images, the file may not compile. Also, I think it would be better if they add their own typo verification. Recommendations to others ...

Best Latex Collaboration Software on the Market!

What do you like best? I love how Overleaf not just makes collaborating on a Latex document as easy as using a software like Google Docs, but it also provides auto-completion, syntax highlighting and debugging support! What do you dislike? Uploading local files to Overleaf is a bit painful, especially when it's more than one at a time. The UI for that could be improved. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? I'm using Overleaf to ...
