As I pointed out in the past, this budget version of Tide lacks enzymes. They are helpful for breaking down organic stains such as blood, chocolate and urine. So enzymes must be good, right? And one should avoid detergents without them, right? Not necessarily. Guess what else is organic: Natural fibers such as cotton, wool and silk. Like organic stains, these fibers are also made up of proteins and carbohydrates. Enzymes break apart proteins and carbs so some experts say that they can also degrade natural fibers. That's why detergents like Woolite do not have enzymes. It's something to consider when you buy your next bottle of laundry detergent. And it's why you shouldn't just dismiss Tide Simply as an inferior detergent.
---------
Here's my original post:
Simply is Tide's budget line. It lacks enzymes to break down tough organic stains, e.g. Amylase for carbohydrates, Protease (e.g. Subtilisin) for proteins. Their regular fragrance-free line, Free and Gentle, has "Subtilisin, Amylase Enzyme, Mannanase Enzyme." This only has detergents and solvents, but no enzymes. I always look at the ingredients before buying a new detergent. On Amazon, the list is usually in the description or you can just enlarge the images to read the label.
It's not "watered down" as some claim. This is evidenced by the fact that the measuring cap is identical to the one on the more expensive Free and Gentle bottle. While Simply lacks enzymes, it does have detergents and solvents to handle those stains, albeit less effectively. That's fine for most people since most people don't have to deal with blood, grass, wine and chocolate stains on a regular basis. It works fine for me. It has even gotten rid of ink (with pre-treatment) since most inks are not organic. And consider this: hand soaps and cleaning sprays like Windex don't have enzymes either yet they work just fine.
I use budget detergent (with and without enzymes) for my regular wash but use the premium stuff (and/or pretreaters) when I have especially dirty and smelly clothes. In summary, this is fine for most people if you want to save a few bucks. But if you have a lot of organic stains all the time, use something with enzymes. For example, if you have kids who are constantly spilling their food.

Liquid detergent actually has a shelf life before it sort of congeals / will start gunking up your machine.
If you have a large enough family / active enough lifestyle to do 356 loads of laundry in 12-18 months (load every day essentially), good deal. If you end up having to throw half of it away...

2) Baking soda. As an alkali, it can neutralize acidic odors and stains, but don't expect miracles since not all odors are acidic. It can also soften hard water, allowing you to use less detergent.
3) Borax. Similar to baking soda. It neutralizes acidic odors and stains, and soften water as well. A bonus is that it creates hydrogen peroxide, which can whiten clothes. This is an effective laundry booster but many detergents already have borax (sodium tetraborate).
If you plan to use any of the above, don't combine vinegar with baking soda or borax. The acid and alkaline will neutralize each other, making them useless.
