Free vs. Paid Plagiarism Checking
Free vs. Paid Plagiarism Checking
Checking for plagiarism can save you a lot of embarrassment and headache, and while free plagiarism checking sounds like a great idea (and it is!) it simply falls short as a serious tool for avoiding the plagiarism pothole. Free plagiarism checks online simply cross match your submitted text with
phrases in online search engine results. And while it may hit a few matches a few times, this method will mostly miss out on the huge database of material that's under subscription on several websites. Add to that journal articles, books, magazines, paid sites etc. and you can see how a free plagiarism check will end up being a cosmetic way to make yourself feel better.
Paying for any service that has a free alternative sounds like a silly thing to do, at first. But consider the advantages that those few dollars will get you: Comprehensive and structured checking and cross matching against billions of websites and publications submitted worldwide; checking against blog entries, paid site articles, journals, books and magazines; availability of multiple languages and file formats to check in; Checking not just for a simple text match, but a comprehensive synonym and sentence structure match. All this to make sure that the documents you submit are clean and clear for use.
In addition, paid services, such as CheckForPlagiarism.net not only put documents through rigorous stages of checking, but also avoids false positives through effective filtering of quoted and cited content to reflect only true plagiarism, this is a unique approach and far from conventional and free plagiarism checkers which show all links matched, be they from quotations or references, thus making it hard for the reader to sift through actual plagiarism and false hits.
While for legal reasons we cannot name the free plagiarism checker we test against, compared to our own for the same submitted document, the results are clear in the reports below. Free alternatives missed over 50% of the plagiarism found in the same document, while our report shows clearly all plagiarism detected.
The main difference between using a free plagiarism check or a reliable, plagiarism checking service is simply this: Peace of Mind.
