The Good:

  • Its free
  • The search is Fast
  • Seems pretty comprehensive
  • Search capabilities are powerful (read the help)

The Bad:

  • Google Ads push information too far down on a page (on a patent)
  • When the search can’t find a text-form patent, the resultant page isn’t too clear that there is a PDF version (maybe Google Ads cluttering the view)

The Ugly:

  • Not too much except I don’t really like the design of the content area on the homepage – too busy looking
