Paid or free, I am looking for the best software for detecting textual plagiarism. Can someone please suggest?
www.grammarly.com This is a paid subscription service used by 500, 000 people at universities. They now offer individual subscriptions for a reasonable rate. Very good plagiarism checker and other writing support functions. For free, the best one I have found is www.plagiarismchecker.com. I use both regularly.
We use iThenticate so far, but I will check the rest given here, thanks a lot!
Pls kindly try the below softwares:
1. Turnitin (most common in UPM-Malaysia)
2. iThenticate
3. PlagTracker
4. Academic Plagiarism Tracker
5. Grammarly
6. Viper
7. Plagiarism Software, and
8. Plagiarism Checker.
TQVM
Thanks all. I have now taken personal annual subscription to Grammarly.com and they are doing a great job.
I don't find any faultless but do find the time spent on this to be greatly distracting to genuine academic endeavour.
iThenticate...................it is one of the best to my knowledge.....

I checked almost all the plagiarism tools before answer this question. I check a document with Turnitin, then with grammarly (https://preparmy.com/recommends/grammarly ) and then with prowriting Aid.
Here is the Results
Turnitin[1]: Showing 55%
Grammarly[2]: 14% ------> https://preparmy.com/recommends/grammarly
ProwritinAid: 1.5%
Where is the difference?
Turnitin is checked and show similarity reports from Internet sources, Publications, and Their own database as well. Number of text many other factor responsible for their higher similarity report.
Grammarly (https://preparmy.com/recommends/grammarly )is also showing Internet source, Publications as well. But their plagiarism percentage is lower because if we add one or two text between any sentence then grammarly not consider it as plagiarised.
ProwritinAid. It show lowest because it only checked through the Internet Source not all the source like publications and others.
Other tools like Plagscan
These all the tools are using Grammarly Ghost api to check the plagiarsim they are not good to use according to my perspective. They also have some limit on number of words to check.
