We are not certain how long Essay-Company.com has been in business, but we have found Essay-Company reviews on the web that go back three years. In putting together our Essay-Company review, we did study those customer reviews, along with the entire company website, Essay-Company testimonials on that website, sample writings, the content of the site itself, the prices, discounts, and benefits, and any information we were given about the writers they use. These are the same criteria we use for all of our writing service reviews and evaluations. Always, the goal is to find reliable and trusted companies that will serve customers well. This is our summary of Essay-Company.
Services and Features Available
Essay-Company.com provides solely academic writing services, including a wide range of products that its lists individually. These include all of the normal products – essays, papers, case studies, lab reports, reviews and analyses, along with application and scholarship essays. It also offers homework help, editing, and resume writing. On its “About Us” page, the most common products are listed, and a visitor can click on them to get more detailed information. We clicked the “dissertation” link and were disappointed not to find much detail but lots of grammatical issues with the text on the page.
The other pages of this website sport very tiny print and walls of text that say very little that is unique. Some of the statements do not make much sense and are poorly written. The following sentence is just one example: “Choice being so multifold because of too many options is likely to make you lost instead of welcomed.”
The company provides a customer support department which we contacted on two occasions, as we asked questions about the products and services. We spoke to an obvious foreigner on the phone who was unable to answer questions about dissertations, but who did tell us we could have one in 7 days. This is virtually impossible.
Visitors are also told that all writers have Master’s and Ph.D. degrees.
Pricing System and Discounts
Essay-Company prices range from $11.30/page for a “high school” piece up to $44.95/page for graduate-level work. These are pretty standard for the industry. There is separate pricing for “college” and “undergraduate” categories, but no customer service agent could define those for us.
Relative to Essay-Company discounts, there is a program but it is not described on the site. If customers subscribe to emails, they will receive Essay-Company promo codes for special pricing. We asked about a discount on live chat and were given a coupon code for 10% off.
Security Level
We see no issue with site security. The company has a privacy policy that is standard for the industry and a guarantee of confidentiality. Customers are provided ID numbers to use, and their assigned writers know them only by that number.
The other key factor here is that financial information is safe and secured. Essay-Company uses an SSL-certified third-party processor for payments, and customer financial information is never held on the site. You can feel comfortable using your credit cards for payment.
Writer Expertise and Delivery
Here is where the “rubber meets the road,” and there are a lot of skid marks. To determine writer expertise, we have to look at the quality of what they produce.
First, we looked at sample writing on the website. We reviewed a research paper on “TV and Violence.” There was no thesis statement. Further, the resources were all secondary. There are so many great recent research studies on this topic, we were disappointed to see none of them used.
The other sample we reviewed was a classification essay on “Safe and Unsafe Drivers.” For a college-level paper, it was far too simplistic and provided no new information. Again, there was no thesis statement and no conclusion at all.
We read the Essay-Company customer reviews and comments found off-site, and the biggest complaint was poor writing, especially from college and graduate-level students. Most found many grammatical and structural errors, and writing that was simply too elementary for their academic levels.
Many customers believe that, despite what the company states, ESL writers are being used. And there is evidence to support these suspicions, given the quality of writing that we have seen.
Additional Benefits
The company advertises all of the standard free pages and a plagiarism scan. As well, it states that each piece of writing is subjected to two proofreaders. We find this hard to believe, given their pricing. And it is doubtful that any English expert proofreads and corrects the obvious grammatical errors.
Conclusion
Our Essay-Company.com review is more negative than positive for a reason. While Essay-Company is certainly legal, the poor quality of products and services, along with exaggerated claims, do not make it a top choice by any means. Our Essay-Company.com rating is a 2, on a 1-5 point scale.
