I am using WW online.
I'm really not a "meetings" person, so WW online seemed a better fit for me.
I weigh and measure myself at home.
Like anything else the system is as effective as the energy and effort you put in to it.
The first 2 months I was sooooooo diligent with tracking all of my food (every day) and my weight and my measurements (every week). And it was very effective -- using WW combined with increased exercise resulted in about 10lbs loss in the first 7weeks.
I think the concept of WW is quite simple:
When you hold yourself accountable for everything you eat/drink and the amount you eat/drink - you are likely to make better choices.
By the third month I started slacking in terms of tracking, I'm still struggling to get myself back in the daily habit. I have no excuse for not doing it. I'm online for at least 4hours every week day.
My weight loss has slowed - I have lost another 7lbs in the past 7weeks....but that is largely due to my significantly increased aerobic exercise. IF I could just get myself back in the habit of tracking on WW I think I'd be seeing more rapid weight loss.
Concise version: I really like WW Online and I think it is very effective when I use it consistently.
