We are providing a spinning service and spend many hours per day spinning "professionally", if you will.

For my work, naturally, i need a very good and dependable spinner software.

I went through at least a dozen or so spin software in the last weeks and i am baffled why people are saying that Spinchimp is good?

While the interface IS indeed very good, the thesaurus and the word choices given are very, very bad. In fact its totally un-usable otherwise i would use it already instead of Spinnerchief.

When i tab through the words to find synonyms, the spinchimp thesaurus gives totally weird and totally wrong suggestions. I am a little baffled to see people recommending spinchimp...but i am also SAD since i would like spinchimp to be as good as Spinnerchief or TBS since it has a very nice GUI/Interface.

As for the time being we do spins with Spinnerchief, and until this date i haven't found another program which comes close OVERALL although Spinnerchief has many flaws like crashes etc, not highlighting syntax when text is pasted in etc...but at least the word suggestions make SENSE which is important for manual spinning.

EDIT: NVM, i see i can set Synonym quality in the Options, at default it's on "ALL" but setting it at best significantly improves the thesaurus!

With any software, you've got to develop your own thesaurus. You expect to pay $40 per year or whatever spinchimp is, and get a perfect thesaurus? You've got to put in the time.
 
The thesaurus is still better than the other 2 software you mentioned IMO.
 
I use spinchimp for offline spinning. It is the only modern one I have that can do that.

For auto-spinning it checks grammar and doesn't make many grammatical errors. It does make significant word choice errors.

My VAs make grammatical errors, spinchimp makes word choice errors. They both end up making articles of about the same low level of quality but I don't have to pay spinchimp by the hour.

Mostly I use SpinnerChief Elite for it's specialized features.
 
I have tried all of the major spinners on the market and spinchimp does the job best for me. It comes down to a matter of taste really.
 
I love SpinChimp especially the interface. The Best Spinner while it has a decent thesaurus is a crap piece of software with frequent crashes and features that don't work. Most importantly, Jonathan Ledger is a dick...
 
ChimpRewriter has replaced SpinChimp.

Aiditorial will replace ChimpRewriter
