Highly recommended" — 5.0/5 > **Saad** | *5 juin 2025* | Enseignement supérieur | Taux de recommandation : 10.0/10 > > **Avantages**: It is a great product to write scientific papers and provides all the power of LATEX combined with cloud features where I don't have to worry about project management. > > **Inconvénients**: The features are a bit costly. They should have a feature for students for unlimited use. If compiling large document in free version, using overleaf can be a pain. > > Overall great experience for small documents/research articles. However, when the size of the document becomes large, we have to buy the product which can be costly. ----- ### "Best online tool for Latex" — 5.0/5 > **Mustafa** | *3 août 2021* | Enseignement supérieur | Taux de recommandation : 10.0/10 > > **Avantages**: The best feature of overleaf is perhaps its autofill function. > > **Inconvénients**: Sometimes it fails to recompile relatively larger documents. > > It is the best text editing online cloud I have ever used. ----- ### "A help for the publishers" — 4.0/5 > **Pradeep** | *3 janvier 2025* | Enseignement supérieur | Taux de recommandation : 8.0/10 > > **Avantages**: The ease of working on projects together with your peers and the free version of it. > > **Inconvénients**: Overleaf stalls for larger documents and has over a period of time somewhat degraded in performance. > > My overall experience has been a mix as it was a very helpful tool in the past but with recent updates it has made me feel somewhat unsatisfied. ----- ### "It is far too expensive for what it offers." — 1.0/5 > **Uwe** | *17 septembre 2025* | Gestion de l'enseignement | Taux de recommandation : 1.0/10 > > **Avantages**: In brief: its online LaTeX features are excellent. There are quirks—for instance with \*xr-hyper\* —but the support team provided a \*latexmkrc\* file that resolved the issue. On this front I would award 10 out of 10. It is ideal for casual users who prefer not to install LaTeX locally and want documents in the cloud. > > **Inconvénients**: Its source editor mediocre, and its collaboration tools barely implemented. At €22 a month, it is far too expensive for what it offers. > > \* Online LaTeX Overleaf’s LaTeX features are impressive. You can choose among various TeX Live engines, including the 2023 version used by ArXiv. There are quirks—for instance with \*xr-hyper\* —but the support team provided a \*latexmkrc\* file that resolved the issue. On this front I would award 10 out of 10. It is ideal for casual users who prefer not to install LaTeX locally and want documents in the cloud. That said, today’s PCs have ample storage and fast connections, so installing LaTeX and a capable editor is hardly an ordeal. \* Editor Overleaf offers two editors. The visual one is decent, giving a rough preview of the final result. The source editor, however, is poor—especially compared with Emacs+AUCTeX. Inserting environments with automatic labels is almost nonexistent, which makes writing longer documents cumbersome. Here I would give 4 out of 10. \* Collaboration This is where I expected Overleaf to excel, and where it disappointed most. There are no notifications of changes. Share a document, and when your collaborator edits it, you will not know unless you check manually. Support did not answer my query on this point. Since I have better things to do than constantly refresh Overleaf, this alone rules it out for serious collaboration. The paid Standard version offers GitHub integration, which partly mitigates the notification problem, though only clumsily. Even the tracking feature in the paid standard version is weak, the professional version is supposed to be better, but at €46 per month, unappealing. \*\* As for GitHub integration: - Overleaf supports Git but not Mercurial (though \*hg-git\* works well enough). - Branches are not supported; inconvenient, but survivable. - Private repositories are allowed, which is a plus. - Access is smooth. \*\* Notifications, However, remain unsolved. When you turn on watching for your GitHub repository, you receive email notifications if someone with write access pushes. You will not, however, be notified when you push yourself. With some additional configuration—by placing a script in =$yourrepository/.github/workflows/push-notify.yml= and adjusting the settings—you can ensure that every push, whether by the owner or a collaborator, generates notifications to a defined list of users. This seems a solution to the problem, but in practice it is not. \*\* No change of commiting author possible Yet your Overleaf collaborators can push to your github repository but they \*cannot change the author\* of a commit, even though Git and Mercurial explicitly allow this. Again, the support team did not reply to my request. To be clear: if it were possible to commit under another author and push, git’s built-in change tracking would suffice, since each commit carries its author. Without this, meaningful tracking is almost impossible. \* Verdict \*\* Scientific collaboration Overleaf is unsuitable for serious collaboration: Because 1. no notifications; 2. minimal change tracking; 3. GitHub integration missing essential features. While better tracking may indeed be tricky to implement, I fail to see why Overleaf cannot add the option to push to GitHub under a different user. That would be straightforward. It would also address the notification problem—at least for those prepared to tinker with GitHub—and an email-based alert system hardly seems beyond reach. \*\* Teaching and sharing short documents It might be useful for teaching, where several lectures want to share short documents. \* Alternatives As for alternatives: some people use Dropbox, but that offers no tracking and no safeguards against conflicting edits. For me the best—and free—solution remains: + a proper local TeX Live installation, with the editor of one’s choice; + a version-control system such as Git or Mercurial (I find Mercurial’s branching model easier than Git’s); + a private repository on GitHub, GitLab or Helix. Users need only learn the basics—clone, commit, push, pull/fetch and perhaps merge. Decent graphical front-ends exist, such as SourceTree (Windows/macOS) or TortoiseHg (Linux). The drawback is that at least one collaborator must have a solid grasp of Git or Mercurial to resolve conflicts. Most scientists, especially mathematicians, work conservatively, often in pairs or trios, and follow sequential editing, which largely avoids clashes, but how they track changes remains mysterious to me. ----- ### "Overleaf makes Latex easy for everyone" — 5.0/5 > **Danai** | *8 septembre 2021* | Logiciels | Taux de recommandation : 9.0/10 > > **Avantages**: I started using Overleaf for my university reports and now I can't imagine myself using a different software for document creation. One of my favorite features is the autocomplete of latex commands. It makes it easy for everyone to use it even if they haven't used latex before and saves you a lot of time typing. It is also very easy to use when collaborating with others, since you can simultaneously edit the same file and view their changes real time without pressing any button. Finally, Overleaf has an incredible documentation. A great example of this is that every Latex-related search query in Google returns an answer on Overleaf's documentation page. > > **Inconvénients**: One of the limiting aspects of Overleaf is the small number of free collaborators. Even though you can send the edit link to any number of people, you can only add one collaborator by their email for free and thus have the project at their home page. Also, sometimes the pdf render takes weirdly long to finish, but it always looks good\! > > I started using Overleaf 2 years ago while searching for collaboration document creation tools. At first I was scared of transitioning to LaTeX, because I wasn't familiar with it. However, Overleaf has a very user - friendly environment and makes LaTeX easy for everyone\! I have to mention that I never had to google a single question on how to use Overleaf, even on day one. Also, their data-driven autocomplete makes you comfortable with LaTeX in a very small amount of time\! After a couple of times using Overleaf, I felt completely comfortable with both the environment and the language and I haven't stopped using it since then\! ----- Page : 1/3\ Suivant: [Page suivante](https://fr.capterra.ca/software/1012414/overleaf?page=2) ## Liens - [Afficher sur Capterra](https://fr.capterra.ca/software/1012414/overleaf) ## Cette page est disponible dans les langues suivantes. | Langue | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | ----- ## Données structurées
