Good alternative to Issuu - I can recommend

4.0 7 months ago

Pros:

It is very similar to Issuu, without the expensive price plan, lousy customer service and changing terms and conditions, where Issuu has disappointed me with in the last year.

Cons:

Uploading files take a bit longer than Issuu, if I have to name a disadvantage. Which is not very big for me.

Fantastic tool for creating digital flip PDFs

5.0 4 weeks ago New

Comments: I'm personally very happy with the capabilities and performance of FlipHTML5 – highly recommended!

Pros:

FlipHTML5 is a fantastic tool for creating digital flip PDFs and clearly stands out from other similar software. The platform is user-friendly – you can get started right away without complicated instructions. What makes it even better is that FlipHTML5 truly offers more features and settings than other tools I have tried. The security options are also very convenient for protecting your content, and the integrated sales function makes it easy to sell directly.

Cons:

I had a little problem with de payment. But the helpdesk fixed it as soon as possible.

SOFTWARE HAS PROBLEMS

2.0 4 years ago

Comments: Support has been very poor .. Issues and complaints were sent to support who promised to look into them but never got back to us .
We plan to cancel .

Pros:

It is easy to upload .. but very difficult for customers to downlaod See below ..

Cons:

We have nothing but complaints from customers when they try to pay for one of our books . They are unable to down load the booklet and can extreme difficulty when using pay pal. Support promised many times to address the issue but has not gotten back to us . We had the same issues a few years ago and cancelled . We figured this year we would try again but very sorry to say we still have complaints from customers and probably cancel again in the next few days . Just can't have customers complaining they are unable to download. GS Prs.

Incredible service and company

5.0 last month New

Comments: Incredible! Super responsive and lots of options. Easy to use.

Pros:

FlipHTML5 is a super easy to use and works great from my needs. They are also very responsive which is helpful as it was my first time using a flip book and I needed some troubleshooting. Plus, as a non-profit they were very charitable, something other companies out there were not willing to do! I'd use again anytime and highly recommend!!

Cons:

No cons, I am happy with everything about the service.

Cool and user friendly way to display anything!

5.0 9 months ago

Pros:

As an non-profit NGO, Specialsport.dk is working to give children with disabilities acces to club-life. And using Flip HTML5 for showcasing our activities, makes the world of difference. Parents can open the online booklet and children will go through all the different possibilities again and again - back and forth. We can attach links, youtube filming, small texting and much more - it is really amazing how different from a 50 page long document! And the price is lower than anything else, we have seen on the market!

Cons:

Nothing - more people needs to know about it

Great Experience of digital magazine

5.0 2 weeks ago New

Comments: FlipHTML5 is an excellent investment for anyone serious about digital publishing. The platform’s versatility allows me to cater to various audiences with interactive and engaging content. The analytics feature helps me understand reader behavior and improve my future issues. Plus, the support team is responsive and helpful. It’s a practical, user-friendly solution that delivers great value for its price!

Pros:

Using FlipHTML5 to create my first digital magazine was incredibly easy. The platform’s tools are intuitive, even for someone like me with no prior design experience. I appreciated the variety of templates and the option to customize everything to match my branding. The flip-page effect adds a professional touch, and embedding multimedia elements was straightforward. I couldn’t have asked for a better tool for creating digital publications!

Cons:

They have developed so much as updated software....hope they would update appearance of video on the page its self.

It is good quality and can be used inexpensively. great.

5.0 11 months ago

Comments: I work at a newspaper.
Last July, I was given an assignment by my boss to find out how to create an e-book for news production.
At first, I looked into outsourcing companies.
However, the cost per year was as much as 20 million won ($15,217.23).
However, I found out that this service is only 1/20th of the cost of an outsourcing company.
Although you have to create the e-book yourself, I liked it because it was so easy and simple that even beginners could use it.
The company also praised us for significantly reducing costs.
Thank you very much.

Pros:

It is good quality and can be used inexpensively. great. I was thinking of outsourcing the e-book production, but I ended up making it myself using that service. It's great that even beginners can use it easily and inexpensively with good quality. I recommend it.

Cons:

not at all. I'm worried that other people will know about this great service. lol

FlipHTML5 is amazing

5.0 last year

Pros:

I liked how customizable it is. We were able to edit the way our audience can interact with our flipbook. It also had other quirks such as adding a page turning sound which I personally really enjoyed! The customer service was great as well.

Cons:

I am not sure if it's normal, but when I turn a page there is a delay in the clearness.
