Useful site for finding docs
usc13
Pros
Not sure what the deal is with the negative reviews. I use docstoc a lot to find business document templates for work. It's pretty helpful and they have just about everything you could want. We use it for things like NDAs, Sales Rep Contracts, Marketing Plans, Strategy Docs, ect.
Cons
Their search feature is decent but often takes a while to find exactly what I'm looking for.
Summary
Useful site. Worth giving a try.
The online definition of internet 'bottom feeder'
Samarec
Pros
Nice font choice on web site.
That is all I could give them.
Cons
I, and other co-workers found our resumes on their site, without permission. Docstoc appears to spyder the web scooping up any document that they believe they can sell, without getting caught under DMCA. I suspect that they have little or no content that is their own.
Summary
Internet Bottom Feeder trying to make a quick $ before getting caught.
disreputable organization-- no concerns for copyright
jolieblonde
Pros
None that I know of.
Cons
They repeatedly upload materials for which submitters do not have the copyright and it is obvious! When the copyright owner writes to complain, they resort to delaying tactics and require the legitimate copyright owner to fill out forms. Why don't those submitting have to upload forms asserting that they do hold the copyright? Because they don't care! They are making money off of other people's work. Worse yet, they are publicizing confidential test information.
Summary
Disreputable, despicable, dishonest. Don't pay to download material thinking you can use it. In all likelihood the material was obtained illegally.
