PERRLA vs Microsoft Word

People occasionally ask us to compare PERRLA to Microsoft Word’s APA or MLA reference tool. While we love Word – PERRLA integrates with it – there really is no comparison (see below).

Simply put, if part of your grade depends on the accuracy of your APA or MLA formatting, you need PERRLA.
