Our review
Essay Tigers has been in business for several years. As a part of our continuing efforts to provide student and others who need professional writing services, we are providing this EssayTigers review. As always, we base our reviews and recommendations upon a number of factors, so that we may be as thorough as possible in our assessment. Those factors include the content provided on the EssayTigers.com website, samples of products if available, customer testimonials that the company publishes, the quality of customer support, reviews we find on the web, and the quality of a writing product that we order from the company. All of these factors are summarized in the following.
Provided Services
Essay Tigers offers a wide array of products and services.
For students, products include any type of writing assignment that might be faced – essays, papers, book reviews, etc. – as well as theses and dissertations for graduate students. Customers may also order multiple-choice test-taking, and admissions essays for both undergraduate and graduate schools and programs.
In the area of business writing, resumes, cover letters, business plans and reports are provided.
Editing and proofreading are provided for any type of writing that a customer has produced.
Product/Writer Quality
We assess quality by looking at the sample writing housed on the EssayTiger.com website, customer reviews that we find through an Internet search, and the quality of a research paper that we ordered from the company.
In reviewing samples of products on the site, we first noticed that many of these samples already exist on other websites we have reviewed. They contain the same grammatical and word usage errors as well. For example, a research work on childhood obesity consistently confuses the adjective “obese” with the noun “obesity.” These types of errors hint that maybe non ENL writers are being used.
Customer reviews were mixed. High school students seemed satisfied with their products. College and grad students, not so much. There were complaints about simplicity of style and vocabulary and sentence structure errors.
The paper we received reflected many of the same complaints that other customers voiced. It would have been okay for high school but would not meet the expectations of a university professor.
We are able to say that EssayTigers is not a fraud or scam, though quality is not as it should be.
Customer Support
We contacted the customer support department on three occasions. We asked about a dissertation, but the rep was not able to provide us with much detail. On the second occasion, we engaged in live chat to ask questions about our order for a research paper. We were assured that we would have a writer with a Master’s degree who was a Native-English speaker and writer. On the third occasion, we called to request revisions. That was a bit more difficult to obtain than the site promises. Our writer was not available so we had to use another, and the revisions were not well done.
Prices and Discounts
We found the prices to be a bit high. Our 8-page paper with a 7-day due date was priced at $160.00. There are 5% discounts for new customers, which brought the price down to $152.00. We received the discount by enter a promo code in our order form. There is a link on the site to a discount page. Once a customer has spent $500, there is a 5% discount until total spent reaches $1000. Then a 10% discount kicks in.
The company also states that customers who follow on Facebook or Twitter will find periodic coupon codes for discounts as well.
Additional Benefits
We were unable to find any free benefits other than revision. There are extras but they are all fee-based, including having an editor review the piece that has already been paid for. If the company has such wonderful writers, why would a piece need to be edited or proofread? Other fee-based options are a plagiarism report, a higher quality writer, and an abstract.
We were not able to find a BBB membership for EssayTigers.com nor were there any filed complaints against the company.
Conclusion
In considering pros & cons of Essay Tigers, we find that the company is legitimate and does follow customer instructions and meet deadlines. Quality, however, is a concern, as are prices. We are therefore assigning an overall rating of “Fair.”

It's horrible to see so many mistakes in the text!What is wrong with you writing service? You promise such a great quality and your customers such as me get some poor paper! They do not do anythingIf the writer is not lazy and delivers good papers than you’re good. But more often the papers are not so smooth. They do not do anything about it. The support is not efficient. I`m disappointed. . .I saved 5 percent but lost much more with the low grading for the achieved result in the paper. Luckily, my professor is a reliable one and she agreed to wait for two more days and agreed that I would rewrite my paper. I had tried around 20 times before I got it actually rewritten. I`m disappointed. . . waste of your moneyLooks like there are a lot of different writing features, but when you come to face with them – they turn out to be weak and more like fake. It is actually expensive. $400 for 17 pages in less than a week- completely inappropriate! Want to waste your money on something? Essay Tigers will definitely satisfy this need of yours. On the scale from one to million, they will get 1!The work with essaytigers didn`t turn out as the best one for me as for a student. I expected that they would contact me, inform about the situation and the process of how it actually goes with my order. But no, nothing. On the scale from one to million, they will get 1! Only 1! |
