Hello. I am here to tell you how much I love using PERRLA. I started using it in March of 2022 as a referral from my sister who's in a Doctorate program and I have since told two of my friends about it who are in a grad program and undergraduate program and it is a great time-saver and I love it!

I recommend PERRLA because it allows me to create a library of references and to have this bank of knowledge that I'm able to go back to time and time again. I'm in my final year of this program and able to go back to these references that I created in my first year that are still relevant, but I don't have to spend time creating new references over and over and over.

PERRLA has absolutely saved my sanity my first semester in grad school. As someone who has not written a professional paper in almost 10 years, I don't know how I would have managed to get anything done without PERRLA. It takes all the stress out of formatting and references and allows me to focus on the content of my papers. I have recommended this to all of my classmates. 10/10.

Hi. I'm Sara. I recommend using PERRLA. As a student who'd been out of school for several years, it made it a lot easier to get back into remembering APA format. I did not lose points for APA errors because I was using PERRLA and I feel like it made a big difference. So, definitely two thumbs up. I'd encourage anybody who's on the fence of subscribing to go ahead and do it. It's a great resource and makes going back to school a lot easier.

Hi. My name is Sarah and I like PERRLA because it really helped me be successful in grad school. It's been a long time since I was in college and when I started grad school and had to think about citing sources, creating resource lists... PERRLA made it so that I could just put in the information from the books I was using, the sources I was using, and it would put it in the correct format that my professors wanted. It also helped me when I was writing the paper to put the correct citations in, and it was a real blessing to be able to turn in my assignments feeling confident that all of my formatting was done correctly and I couldn't have done that without PERRLA.

Hi. My name is Shallotta Scoggins and I was given this resource by one of my classmates. I attend Walden University. English and writing has not always been my strength, but ever since she gave me this resource, PERRLA has been my lifeline and I don't think I could manage without it. I did not mind paying the membership fee for it because the way it helps me organize my papers from the beginning to the end, from the references to the APA format, to my cover sheet. It has given me life and I don't think I could survive without it. Whoever came up with this resource, I thank you from the bottom of my heart. I wish it was available in my younger days, in my younger college days, even in high school. But, I highly recommend this resource to everyone who decides to go back to college, being if you're just coming out of high school or you're older and decide to go back to college... because everything has changed as far as formats from when I was in school. I know it has. I just want to say that I really, really appreciate it and I pray that it continues to help people, help people strive in their writing and their communication skils... anything when it comes to writing a paper in the format. This PERRLA resource has been the best resource that anybody has given or recommended for me and I recommend it for anybody. And, from the bottom of my heart, I thank you, and you guys have a blessed day and keep coming up with ways to help people thrive in life and, like I said, it has been my lifeline.

Hi, everyone. My name is Shayna. I just had to come on and tell everyone a little bit about how much PERRLA has changed my life. Yeah. It's been life-changing. I'm in a Master's program online and I started during the pandemic. Even though I have a Bachelor's, APA and MLA formatting will haunt me, I thought, well into the end of my schooling career. But, PERRLA has helped me so much with formatting resources and the Customer Service Help  has just been beyond incredible. And, so, I have told all of the people in my cohort about it, so all of them use PERRLA now. I actually heard about it from a friend, my dear friend Sean, so I attribute all of this to Sean. I'm dedicating this for you Sean, if you're out there. I just want to thank PERRLA so much because it's been so helpful with everything I need to do all of my essays, all of my papers, all of my discussion posts in my Master’s. I'm finishing up in October but I will still tell people about PERRLA until the end of my days. But, I might live to, like 100 and something like my friend here, so I just want to let everyone know that it's really an incredible program, a software program and I'm hoping that this video can get more people noticing it and more awareness because it's really life-changing when you're in school. So, thank you for all that you guys do at PERRLA. Get PERRLA because you might live to 100 and you'll probably still use it.

Hey. My name is Sheena and I am a PERRLA believer. I purchased this product when I was in Bachelor's school for my Nursing and used it all the way up through my Master's program. Total game-changer. If it wasn't for PERRLA, I don't think I would have had any sleep. Like, it's a total game-changer. Don't hesitate. PERRLA will get you to graduation. Thanks again, PERRLA.

Hi. I'm Stacey Nugent and I have been a registered nurse for over 23 years. I only have an associate's degree and I decided  15 years ago to try to go back to school. And I am a single mother and I just couldn’t hang with the APA format. I couldn't keep up with it. I couldn't figure it out and there were no real programs back then. Fast forward to March of 2022. I enrolled in Capella. And, one of the other girls that are on my team suggested to me that I download PERRLA. It has been the absolute best thing for me to transition back to college and get my BSN. I have finished two classes and I do not stress about the APA formatting. I absolutely love it. There is so much within the PERRLA website to do with your page and your references and all the things you can do. It's just amazing. I am so grateful. Thank you so much PERRLA for assisting me to get back and get my BSN. Much appreciated!

Hi. My name is Tanya Crespo. I'm actually recommending PERRLA because I have been back in school now for the past year and I've used PERRLA and it has helped me so much to get good grades - actually A's - on all the papers that I've turned in. It does amazing with formatting and everything else you could ask for and with citing references and things that I have problems with. It guides me through everything. I've recommended it to a lot of my friends who are now back in school and they have loved it as well.

PERRLA has been one of the best additions to my grad school experience. I bought the original version of it when I was in my graduate program for my Master's degree many years ago, about 10 years ago. The last three years I've been finishing up my Doctorate and it has made paper-writing such an easier process. My references are always correct and I don't usually lose points on papers... lots and lots of paper-writing in grad school so it's been a great addition. I really recommend buying it.

Hi, Cliff, and the PERRLA team. I'm here to give a video testimonial about how wonderful your tool is. I am a 58 year-old Ph.D. candidate and I started my Ph.D. studies 2 years ago but it had been 10 years or more since I had completed my Master's degree program. So, writing APA papers were... let's just say I wasn't real familiar with doing them. So, one night, frantically working against a deadline (of course) I was searching the internet, looking for a tool to help me understand how to do these APA citations and do them quickly because I was up against a deadline... and I found PERRLA... and it has been a wonderful gift... a Godsend... a savior, really, for me, especially in the beginning days of writing my papers.

The settings to be able to set up the paper, from the abstract to the different chapters, the citings tool, understanding that it's going to help me write my paper in APA style has been just wonderful. And, even when I sit down to open a different tool to write the paper I'm like... no, let me go to PERRLA because I know here I'm not going to waste time fussing over the formatting. I can take all my energy and use it to write a fantastic paper. So, thumbs up to you guys. Thank you so much for a wonderful tool.

I encourage any student, whether you are a undergraduate, graduate, or doctoral student to use the tool because it is a lifesaver... and it saves you so much time. So, thank you for putting a call out for video testimonies. I'm delighted to be a part of this and to help you build your video archive from real clients and customers. Be well! Bye!

I do share all the time! I am in an MPH accelerated program at GWU and we use APA citations. My mum is a professor of nursing and recommended this program and it is great. Ease of access, my professors never have a problem with my citations. I am always letting anyone who wants to know that it is worth the money. Having this platform save your work is essential unlike just using the free sites just for citations. This is the complete package and saves so much time. Thank you!
