Review Summary

Microsoft Editor is widely appreciated for its practical, multilingual spelling and grammar correction, ease of use, and helpfulness in enhancing writing quality. Users like its light, non-intrusive interface and prefer it over competitors like Grammarly. However, a common complaint is its failure to recognize premium subscriptions in Chrome and Vivaldi browsers, limiting full feature access. Additionally, it struggles on certain platforms such as Notion, where it marks text as incorrect without providing corrections, reducing usability in those cases.

Pros

  • Very useful and practical for correcting spelling and grammar errors.
  • Supports multiple languages and provides suggestions in both English and Spanish simultaneously.
  • Easy to use, intuitive, and non-intrusive while editing text.
  • Helpful for quick writing, improving communication, and creative expression.
  • Preferred over other grammar tools like Grammarly by some users.

Cons

  • Premium status doesn't register properly on Chrome or Vivaldi browsers even with an active Office 365 subscription, though it works on Edge.
  • Does not function well on certain platforms like Notion or in some form fields, marking everything as incorrect without suggestions.
  • Some users experience inaccurate error markings without helpful correction suggestions in some contexts.
