Chegg: Unique Online Learning

Finally, it lists internships and scholarships and has a section on financial advice aligned with students’ needs.

Chegg

PROS

Variety of services for students. Very good for solving math equations.

CONS

Pricey for subscription content. Strict device limitations lead paying users to being locked out of accounts easily. Book prices aren’t always competitive. Services are disparate rather than neatly unified.

BOTTOM LINE

Chegg is a compendium of online services for students, from textbook rentals to help solving math equations. Some of the services are quite valuable, but the subscription price is high for students.

The services feel disparate and fractured rather than unified under Chegg, in part because some are available only via the website, and some have their own mobile apps. Even so, a few of the services are uniquely useful, particularly those focused on math. The paid services are priced high for the student market, and a strict two-device limit for paying customers seems excessive.
