Their questions don't have correct answers. Worst HW service to ever use. If students can't trust the answers to be correct, then it is rendered useless. I have screenshot evidence. Someone should report them for fraud to a relevant watchdog.

MERCILESS
MONEY GRABBER! worst online form of studying and homework environment! deducts points for wrong answers with absolutely no mercy. Final grades are taken, without reward for doing the problems right after the fact. Highly sensitive final answer inputs. DO NOT USE, TAKE A DIFFERENT COURSE SECTION IF POSSIBLE TO AVOID THIS PLATFORM.

Bought and paid for a textbook and have no access to it. This has happened to about half of my class even though we have proof of purchase. Wiley is absolutely no help. AVOID!!

Horrible Support Experience
Horrible Support experience, I filed a case a month ago and have yet to hear single goddamn word from support. I also looked into the Wiley Plus community forums for an answer, and it's even worse some of the people who had similar questions to my own spanning back to 2020 have yet to receive a response.

Should not even exist
It is the worst software to work with. It has the vaguest hint for like 20 exercises and does not give you an explanation of the correct answer. Not only do I learn nothing while studying with it, I get even more confused and start doubting what I previously learned. I am very disappointed and would request for a refund if our professor didn't practically force us to buy it.

Lots of bugs for textbook
For textbook:
Some images are partially shown. Some words being misspelled. When finishing exercises, your answer and the correct answer will be overlapped. If you refresh the page (which you occasionally have to), you will start from the first page and have to do all the exercises again. If you accidentally hit forward/backward, it will lead to a page of error messages.

The e-book itself is USELESS as it offers little to no assistance in actually explaining how to complete the homework problems. The only saving grace is that certain problems have tutorial videos attached to them which are actually very helpful. However, the addition of a tutorial video tells me that the people at Wiley know the book isn't good enough at explaining which is why they need the video in the first place. Essentially, if they did a good job at explaining the problems, they wouldn't need the tutorial video.
If you have an accounting class that requires Wiley, I HIGHLY recommend purchasing Chegg to give you the answers for the homework since the book doesn't help at all.
Also, I've noticed that the practice homework that coincides with the actual homework often doesn't help and leaves me more confused. I've tried to tell my professors about my concerns with Wiley, but they just brush it off as me being a whiney college student.
Unfortunately, it is very common for me to take 4 hours or more on homework that only has 10 problems simply because there are no clues or hints on how to complete the problems presented in the assignment.
I have 4 classes this semester, 3 of which are in the 300 level, and my hardest class BY FAR is accounting 214 (If you aren't familiar, the higher the number, the more difficult the class is supposed to be, and my accounting 214 class is the hardest class even though it should be the easiest).

Terrible
WileyPlus is literal garbage. I've been studying for an exam and decided to use the narrated lecture slides. One woman can't even speak properly and sometimes messes up the words. For example, saying something is a credit when it literally shows that it's a debit. Not to mention, the problems they "work out" have no explanation on how they even got an amount. McGraw-Hill connect is so much better
