This website is organized and efficient and it really saves a lot of time in making bibliography. However, I found some of the categories to be a bit confusing. For instance, I needed to cite a book I found through a database but easybib didn't provide that information for me. This is just a minor irritation from an otherwise thorough and helpful website.
I used to use this website back when it wasn't plagued with advertisements everywhere. Now, you can't even navigate through the website without having to click X on multiple pop-up ads. Tried using an ad-blocker, but it blocks access to the site until you turn it off. I would definitely recommend using another citation website than this greedy $#*! company
The f***ing thing wont work it gets stuck on an ad pls help its trash i hate it they are greedy and just want money screw them.
Don't waste my time working on something I think is free. Be forward about your service costing money. This website is annoying.
This website used to be so good before the constant ads and redirecting you to get their free 3 day membership.
I feel like the site used to be a lot more user friendly. It crashes frequently and is frustrating to use.
2nd time using this site and its all fine.
The only issue I found was its sometimes slow to load, that could be my old computer though.
Thanks
Cesspool of commercialism and sellouts. Ads everywhere and pushes you into a subscription model. Worthless, end the whole site
Pretty good website for bibliographies. And as the name suggests, it makes bibliographies easy to do.
I signed up for free trial but after trying to cancel it the 3rd day it said my purchase had already been made…. Thanks a lot of scamming me easybib
This website used to be a good resource for creating citations and bibliographies for research projects, but now it is complete garbage. The greedy scumbags behind this website took note of the high amount of traffic from students, and took advantage of them all by placing as many advertisements as they possibly could on the website.
"Well, that's understandable, they're just trying to make some money. What's so bad about that? If you don't want the ads, use adblock!"
You see, that's where the biggest problem with the scummy greediness of the website comes in. The slimy rich $#*!s behind this website thought that the huge amount of ads on their website weren't enough, and added a script that detects if an adblocker is running on the webpage, and limits you to ONE CITATION until you turn the adblocker off.
That's the definition of greed and exploitation of resources. There is no way in hell that the owners of the website need the amount of money that they are getting from the mind-boggling number of advertisements on the website, and it's truly sickening.
The adblocker I use (uBlock Origin) detected and blocked 49 ADVERTISEMENTS on ONE REFRESH. 49. That wasn't even enough, as their partner, Grammarly, had taken up all of the advertisement spots and shoved their download link into my face multiple times on the one visit I gave it. It's truly infuriating that nobody cares about the greed that the domain's holders have, and the fact that they're most likely sitting in a mansion without a care in the world.
Don't use this website, it's the epitome of greed and scum.
Tip for consumers:
Don't. Just don't.
I can't access my projects or merge them! When I tried to take them to a google doc, nothing happened. This site sucks.
There is way too much lag loading lag, rendering lag, and more i created more than 10 citations last night when i went back they were not there
It is annoying to use. Since I need to fill in 100 characters for this review, I will say it again: Annoying to use
This website makes me watch their advertisements so that I can get my citation. It also lags and is very slow.
$#*! easy bib and its ads its garbage it makes me want to eat dog $#*! ligma balls easy bib $#*!ing die
When I am about to bib something a ad pops up to subscribe or block it and I can't block it. I am going to fail my project BECAUSE OF EASY BIB I HATE EASY BIB NOW1
I was working on a massive research project, and thought easybib was the best way to help me keep the hundreds of sources I had organized. Formatting in MLA is free, but the night before I had to turn it in, my professor told me that the department wanted it in APA. Easybib converts from one format to the other easily, however, APA cost money. At the time they had a 3 day free trial. I could sign up, convert to APA, save it to my harddrive, print it out, and then cancel it the next day. I logged on the next day to cancel, and it said I had to go to paypal and cancel my subscription there. I did so, and I even removed my bank account from paypal to be extra sure. Today I got a statement from my bank, and it seems my account wasn't cancelled and they had been taking money from me for three months. I checked paypal, and it said I had no subscriptions to easybib, and no transactions in the last three months. I contact easybib, they told me I had never cancelled, and that they would not refund me. I asked them to cancel mt account, and they told me to cancel it on paypal. I told them I had done this three months ago, and they said they would take care of cancelling it for me if I really had a problem.
I don't get it. How can they cancel it for me if it is up to paypal to cancel it? They have no access to my paypal account. Also, if they could take care of it on their end, why don't they? Why do they make us go through paypal?
I am still trying to get a refund, but they keep telling my that my not cancelling my subscription is no reason to give me a refund. I keep telling them that I did cancel it through paypal, and sent them a screen shot from before I emailed them that I have no subscriptions. But they don't listen. Greedy f***ing b*****ds. It is college students who use this service most often, and they think they can just screw us over, like the rest of the world does.
Litereally so glitchy. Used to be so good and now it is just full of ads and doesn't save my progress! STAY AWAY! Used to be good... now it sucks
Say no ads, get tons of ads
Does have the work
I have to put it in 5 times before it wants to work
Pain in the butt to work
Makes no sence
Garbage website, keeps on crashing, and is full of annoying ads. Completely overrated.
About half of the time I can't cite stuff, just gives an error, and it's covered in ads..
