Version: 3.1.0
It is great when it is working. Alas, it keeps crashing. Uninstalled the program, reinstalled it and it still keeps crashing. Additionally, it shreds words into unreadable gibberish or deletes parts of sentences. I am using a 2019 Macbook Pro with the latest Mac OS update, MS Word and Grammarian 3.1.

Grammarian PRO3 is the best yet and is still the epitome of proofreading tools. I'm ecstatic about this upgrade.

Version: 3.0
Someone recommended this as an alternative to Grammarly. So I tried it out. This is awful. Typing slows down to a crawl (on an 2018 MacBook Pro). It finds far less issues than Grammarly (or Pro Writing Aid), and the way the GUI displays information makes it hard to work with (also GUI looks very dated).

Version 3 looks amazing and finally a replacement for Spell Catcher which I had been using since it since it was called Thunder 7. This version of Grammarian is 64-bit so maybe I’ll finally be able to upgrade to Catalina as losing Spell Catcher was a major worry. This pup is fast too. While no upgrade discount from version 2, it is on sale for awhile so I’m happy to support the developer.

Version: 2.1.1
I love the total system wide integration. And it works as well as advertised. The only feature I'd like to see added would be a plagiarism checker.

Version: 2.0.16
As a college instructor, I must review more than 100 papers every two weeks. Grammarian is my go-to choice for catching errors I might miss after hours of reading content. Yes, the university subscribes to two automated systems, but those SaaS apps and Grammarly are less accurate.
When I had a problem after upgrading to a new MacBook Pro, I had random crashed. The problem turned out to be easy to fix thanks to good tech support. Because only one or two papers were crashing during "AutoMark" I failed to realize only spelling errors were crashing the app - there was a corrupt dictionary file.
I am going to buy another license for an iMac. I look forward to future updates that are 64-bit so they avoid any warnings from Apple.

I wonder who would spend 50 $ (well, they ask '49,95', which is already A SHAME, a way to insulte the intelligence of the audience!) for something we can't even try (and that most probably would be not less presumptuous than Grammarly!)

Version: 2.0.10
Great app. I've been using this for years and am glad it is actively supported.

Version: 2.0.10
Almost useless. It monetary worth shouldn't exceed $5 for what it does:
1. I tried it on article and most of the suggestions were either wrong or useless.
2. The graphical interface belongs to the seventies.
3. The font size and type are not good for the eyes.

Checked the following:
Bill's go to store four cheese.
Were gone to the store.
Bill go too store.
Where going to there store.
-------
Grammarian Pro2 only caught "Bill go too store"
and then only corrected go to goes.
Pretty lame.
Thanks ... Ken

Version: 2.0.8
This is truly funny! Read the "WHAT'S NEW" for version 2.0.8. How many grammatical and spelling errors can you find? I can't stop laughing!
Nov 11 2013
Version: 2.0.7
Is this update compatible with OS 10.9 Mavericks? I sincerely hope so, because having happily used Grammarian PRO and PRO2 for many years, I want to continue.
I love Grammarian PRO2X and I love Mavericks. They deserve each other!

"Fixed: Keyboard menu shortcuts of Pencicil Menu in Mac OS X 10.7 Lion."
Can't find the pencicil menu...
Apr 8 2011
Version: 2.0.1
Pardon me, but I do not think I want to use a program that is supposed to check grammar and spelling when, on their support page, they refer to "Frequently Asked Questions" as FAQ's.
"Questions" is plural. There is no need for an apostrophe-s as this denotes possession! See it for yourself at http://www.linguisoft.com/support.html
Even if this has become common usage, it is still grammatically incorrect. Gimme a break!

Version: 2.0
I'm sorry but I refuse to pay for an upgrade when in the 4 years I've owned this app you've release maybe 1 subpar update. What a bunch of nonsense.

Version: 2.0
The program is an essential computer secretary for proofreading. It works well, and catches mistakes, stopping me from submitting papers with careless errors.
Jan 13 2011
Version: 2.0
Damn, purchased this program for about one year with very few update. Now the 2.0 version came out and ask for $25 update fee. And you can not find the link for purchasing an update license on the developer's website (the only link is to pay $49 for a new license)!
