What is PERRLA Online?
When you purchase a subscription to PERRLA, it includes the add-in that works directly with Microsoft Word (PERRLA for Word) and the online web-application (PERRLA Online).
PERRLA Online lets you write and manage your papers from any internet connected computer. It includes all of the tools you have come to expect from PERRLA for Word (References, Citations, paper formatting, etc.), plus a number of new ones that are only found in PERRLA Online (Research Notes, Outline Editor, etc.).
Can PERRLA Online replace PERRLA for Word?
PERRLA Online includes everything you need to write perfectly formatted APA, MLA, and Turabian papers from start to finish, all without Microsoft Word. So you can use just PERRLA Online alone to create and manage all of your papers. But, if you like, you can still use PERRLA for Word as well.
Your PERRLA subscription includes both.
However, papers do not sync between PERRLA Online and PERRLA for Word (References do sync automatically between PERRLA Online and PERRLA for Word). It's best to finish a paper on whatever platform you start it on.
You do have the option to export papers from PERRLA Online so that you can finish them in PERRLA for Word. See Download or Print Your APA, MLA, or Turabian Papers to Turn In (Online) for the steps.
How do I get help in PERRLA Online?
PERRLA Online has help built directly into it. You can use the Help Center or Contact Support at the bottom of the left sidebar to easily find help.
Like always, PERRLA's Support Team works from 10 am – 10 pm (Central) Monday through Friday, and from 1 pm – 10 pm on weekends.
Do I still receive Priority Support for PERRLA Online and PERRLA for Word?
Yes! Priority Support covers your entire PERRLA subscription, in every PERRLA product. It's included with PERRLA Pro and PERRLA Unlimited.
Can I import a paper into PERRLA Online?
No, not right now. That's a feature planned for a future update.
However, all of your References will sync between PERRLA Online and PERRLA for Word.
Do I need to download PERRLA Online?
Nope. PERRLA Online is a 100% online web application. That means you access it through your web-browser at www.perrlaonline.com. So, you can access your PERRLA Online papers from any internet connected computer (anywhere).
