Review summary

Based on reviews, created with AI

Reviewers had a great experience with this company. Customers appreciate the user-friendly software and find the overall process simple. People highlight the ease of installation and the potential to earn rewards, especially with a good graphics card. Consumers also mention the convenience of cashing out, particularly through PayPal, and the variety of available rewards. However, some reviewers report inconsistent earnings, which they say are dependent on hardware capabilities and job availability. Some users have also experienced issues with payments, while others have had no problems. A few reviewers mention that the software consumes a lot of power and that older hardware may not be as profitable.

Super easy to use and doesn't use much power

Recently upgraded to a 5080 and have been using Salad way more frequently, its so easy to use that I dont care if hourly rate is a bit lower than others, I click a button and it starts using my pc. If I want to play something or need the VRAM, I click another button and it turns off, when off it completely stops using the GPU, there's been other reviews saying issues with redeeming, but every time I've redeemed something it has always worked
