Vorteile

It created good flipbooks but no different to others out there that were A LOT cheaper

Nachteile

The cost and experience when asking for a refund as upgrading didn't allow me to do what I thought it could.

Vorteile

It is very intuitive and quite easy to use.

Nachteile

Sometimes organizing the folders is cumbersome. Pricing is a bit steep for a small shop that isn't a frequent user.

Vorteile

Ease of use and ability to edit published documents.

Nachteile

Navigation is a bit tricky at the beginning, but once you learn your way around it is pretty easy.

Vorteile

The easy interface, flexibility, professional customer service, and variety of options

Nachteile

I haven't found any yet.
Even when I encountered a problem or even wanted to check out an upgrade option, they came to me and allowed me to experience a more advanced plan without obligation so that I could make an informed decision about whether to upgrade.

Vorteile

The Magazine feel, the digital solutions. Easy to use.

Nachteile

Can't really think of any negative issues regarding Flipsnack

Vorteile

The multi functions to create a magazine!

Nachteile

I mislike that with the starter account you pay around 200 Euros per year, but stay with 10 issues, which in the end you have to overwrite that is reuse to create new issues. Why for the money paid not obtaining a new set of 10 extra magazines. Why pay each year and for what in the end?

Vorteile

It’s a beautiful way to share back reports to clients instead of sending a pdf. And the possibility to insert videos in my docs.

Nachteile

The price. And limited functionality outside publishing our docs.

Vorteile

Flipsnack does a wonderful job on crafting the Footwear Show New York Expo's directory. User friendly platform with quality results.

Nachteile

Thus far I am happy with results nothing negative to share.

Vorteile

Definetely their customer service. They are aware of every issue that you might have until it is solved.

Nachteile

You cant use shortcuts for underlined or italics, you have to select the text and then change it. Other times the whole paragraph changes so you have to undo and redo.

Vorteile

We were looking for an affordable way to share our viewbooks with prospective clients. We researched Flipsnack and found what we were looking for and beyond. The software is easy to use, set up, navigate, post and share.

Nachteile

Sometimes the features don't function well with shared links like the gif link breaks and a broken image file is sent out instead.

Vorteile

It's super easy to use and very intuitive. Style and design of the end product is chef's kiss. Additional features like the downloadable gif and link options are great.

Nachteile

I'm happy across the board with Flipsnack. Haven't come across anything that I don't like.

Vorteile

This application makes publishing much easier.

Nachteile

I can not think of anything at this time.

Vorteile

Ease of use and intuitiveness. Makes me look like I spent hours and hours on a custom brochure!

Nachteile

I always import my pdfs so not sure how easy it is to create in Flipsnack. Otherwise, I have no complaints!

Vorteile

We used it in editing our catalog designs and testing out new content. We can recreate each content with a beautiful template, but we don't have many options, it's limited.

Nachteile

Flipsnack is a really nice utility, but very expensive. When you want to export the content you have created, it only allows up to 4 pages in free use. Other than that it's really expensive.

Vorteile

It is easy to update and publish content.

Nachteile

The page navigation rarely works for our stuff. We need to educate ourselves better on creating the bookshelf thing for previous publications but it feels overwhelming.

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Flipsnack

Vorteile

We were able to get our work done thanks to its different content and easy use, but it was expensive, so we didn't follow up.

Nachteile

We found the prices quite expensive, not every country has the same economy, so we find them a bit expensive from our point of view.

Vorteile

It's easy to work with and takes little time.

Nachteile

I just don't know enough about the options available (my fault not the company)

Vorteile

Quick responses and super helpful! Paul from support was able to add an extra feature for me on the house. He was a superstar!

Nachteile

N/A......................................................

Vorteile

Very easy to upload a PDF and have it quickly turned into a flip book. Background colors and patterns, the ability to insert live links and video, allows for coordinating with my brand and sending viewers to my website or video channel easily. The option to turn off page turn sounds, create gifs, and have multiple formats are great extras. I especially like the ability to have a link to the full screen version without Flipsnack branding or similar publications featured BUT keeping the social share options. This creates a very personalized and professional experience for my clients and importantly prospective clients.

Nachteile

I find the editor clunky and less than intuitive. Simply trying to add a line of text and a link is confusing. You can not simply drop in a text box and type, and then highlight the text and add a link. Honestly, I still haven't figured it out. For example today I tried to add something to an existing page and clicked on the thumbnail of the page in the right hand column of the editor and for whatever reason that little thumbnail image was now attached to my cursor even when using the back button and going to a previous screen the thumbnail was still there traveling with my cursor. It is helpful to be able to go back to an already created flip book to add new links or elements to the pages without having to go back to the original document and then re-upload but unfortunately I find the in program editor difficult to figure out. I use quite a few tools to create documents, graphics and video including Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, Premiere Pro, Adobe Spark Post, Canva, Word, Google Docs, LibreOffice and more, so the fact that I find your editor a challenge is frustrating.

Vorteile

The product is very easy to use, has a nice effect when viewing the presentation. Love that we can insert video

Nachteile

We use the flipsnack a little differently that your publications. We are graphic and content based, and the typography and layout limitations are sometimes very frustrating because they are too basic. There is also no type tracking capabilities for individual words, if you use the generic spacing, it spaces the whole paragraph. Quite basic stuff and may be good for most of your users, we get it. Just frustrating a bit to us. Many times, we have issues when downloading the code and uploading to another website. We would like self hosting option.

Vorteile

What I like most about Flipsnack is its ease of use to display a catalog digitally on a website and still remain interactive like an actual book.

Nachteile

What I like least is the need to re-upload an entire catalog if there is one change on a single page.

Vorteile

Flipsnack is super easy to use, all the tools on both sides of the screen are clearly and well organized as well as nicely introduced. I love the fact that you can either upload your pdf and edit it online or create a whole project from 0. My favourite thing is that Flipsnack provides you with looots of different layouts to create your project (from magazines to photo albums to menus) and that is simply wonderful as it makes you look really pro. I also liked the fact that it allows you to insert videos and links and integrate those (but only in the paid version). Also, it's great that it allows for various people to access the account at the same time so that you can work together while making the changes!

Nachteile

When I first suscribed to Flipsnack, I was shocked that it wasn't possible to write in the text boxes with justified text. There were only 3 options: central, aligned to the right or to the left, but no justified-text, so visually that made a huge impact and I didn't like it at all. I contacted the customer service and asked about it and they were really nice and said they would take that into consideration for their next update, and they really did! Now they've improved a lot since they introduced the option of text-justification. Also, I inquired about GIFs a few weeks later. I wanted to add a GIF to my magazine but realized it wasn't possible. After a little while, they updated that too!! So now it's possible to add GIFs and that's great! A negative thing is that when exporting the whole project into PDF the version is actually a bit poor and things move out of place, but the online version stays great.

Vorteile

Flipsnack is a fairly simple to deploy software that allows for a more professional means of publication, presentation and online catalogues. The online application is quite decently priced if you purchase a yearly subscription and for those that only need the basic elements there is also a neat free version for the above mentioned uses. We loved the ease of use and the great customer service on the platform as well as how easy and secure the payment portal was.

Nachteile

If you are a subscribed member of Flipsnack you will know that there are quite a few unlisted features in the comparisons table before purchase. This unfortunately can be a little misleading and make your decision after payment feel a little "cheeky"... *Hint - just go for the enterprise package if you want access to all the features of the platform such as a personalised favicon and subdomain URL. MP4 files cannot be uploaded to any Flipsnack document unless you are a enterprise member however you can run it videos through YouTube instead, so perhaps start a YouTube channel if you want to use video in you presentations / catalogues. The software can be a little buggy at times and does require a little bit of time and resource to iron out the kinks.

Vorteile

The fact that I can make multiple online catalogues. But also I can upload existing ones.

Nachteile

When you make a online catalogue, you can not use it for print. Allthough they offer a service to print it anyway, it’s expensive.

Vorteile

It is really easy to use and create flip books, the design features are pretty simple and work well. None of my team are graphic designers so anything that makes it easy to make beautiful flip books is a bonus for us.

Nachteile

Because we are a team we sometimes have two people working on different books at the same time. Flipsnack only allows one user to login to the system without having a expensive program. I wish we could have two users on the system at once.

Vorteile

customization with books - the ability to design them exactly how we want them to look is a big advantage.

Nachteile

inability to archive books so they always live on our account but don't count as one of our active flipbooks.

Vorteile

The innovations it brings to my projects!

Nachteile

There are changes/updates and I sometimes lose track. But I can still watch the videos and get up-to-date.

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Flipsnack

Vorteile

Easy to edit - clean and straight forward platform

Nachteile

At first, we would forget if we published it as private vs public and you couldn't go back to fix it. That was a while ago... maybe that function is better by now?

Vorteile

Flipsnack is a great way to add interactivity to PDF content. It is a great alternative to printing documents and making them more visually appealing and engaging.

Nachteile

I don't think there are enough benefits to having the enterprise account for the price it is. I think the addons for making the account exclusive to one client is too high and should be part of the standard enterprise account.

Vorteile

Its ability to use anywhere. The cloud based software is handy

Nachteile

Cut and paste doesn’t work well from a page more than 1 page away. The design functionality is difficult to master

Vorteile

Flipsnack is easy to use. We just upload a PDF of our newsletter and can easily change out pages if need be. It makes it so easy to send out a large newsletter for our members to read.

Nachteile

We have not encountered any issues nor do we dislike anything on Flipsnack.

Vorteile

I like that I can offer pdfs behind password protection or create bookshelves for similar content.

Nachteile

I wish there were options to easily split a PDF if I accidentally upload a layout instead of individual pages.

Vorteile

It’s so easy to use. No training is necessary! I love it.

Nachteile

No real cons here. It’s easy and quick to figure out.

Vorteile

We were initially attracted to Flipsnack for the PDF flip feature and the ability to add in image carousels, videos and use our domain.

Nachteile

The platform doesn't hold your font formatting - meaning after you finish your project and preview, and you return to your edit screen all the copy returns to a small black font - a nightmare.

No data features - your reports and decks have graphs and pie charts. They can't build them nor can they be animated in any way.

The builder is beyond terrible to use. You expect a Canva type experience, however, this platform is lightyears behind.

Incredibly overpriced to get all the functions they advertise. Once Canva adds these capabilities this platform will be obsolete.

Customer service is only available a few hours a day. Every time we tried to contact support it said they were closed. We tried in the evening, morning the next day and afternoon - nothing.

Vorteile

First time user and everything was very easy to navigate. It’s fun, easy, proving the digital world is evolving.

Nachteile

I had never heard it before now. Advertising department needs to push how amazing Flipsnack is.

Vorteile

The creation/editing of magazines is really easy, and I love the features that are now in editing (e.g. hyperlinking). Once created the magazines are easily shareable and you can whitelabel the sharing and magazine. And there are no ads when you share, which is important to our clients. It is easy to search for and organize magazines.

Nachteile

The enterprise pricing/setup for additional magazines could use modification for companies that have/keep many magazines on hand. We have to go in and delete old magazines to keep the number down to 1000. The cost to add more magazines was too pricey for us.

Vorteile

I love that it has tons of customization options such as colors, fonts, videos, and even animations which makes it a great choice for a wide variety of flipbook projects and Flipsnack also has a large variety of templates to choose from.

Nachteile

I don't like that the features on the free plan are severely limited and it can sometimes struggle with larger files and relies heavily on the user having a stable internet connection.

Vorteile

Accessibility is great feature as this was a selling point when choosing a provider, which others didn't offer (at the time of choice). The ease of use overall is good and I do admire that Flipsnack is always evolving and bringing out new features to improve the platform.

Nachteile

I have experienced difficulty with important features such as text editing saves which is critical. I would also say that some of the features need finessing/improving as they can be quite limiting/basic or generally quite glitchy.

Vorteile

Of all the interactive online publication platforms we've investigated (and there's quite a few of those), we've found FlipSnack to be easiest to work with, specifically how it integrates interactive animation and video, and the application of quick links, folios and call-outs.

Nachteile

We have experienced super-slow page turning on some of our machines, and we've never quite resolved it, but we think it's down to a browser issue, and not the FlipSnack platform.

Vorteile

The quality of pictures, books and links, the ease of usage and the customer service so far is exceptional

Nachteile

Hate that i cannot edit the text on pdf that i uploaded, this would be so so helpful

Vorteile

Flipsnack allows us to promote our materials on-line so that readers can easily "Flip" through pages like they would a magazine and not lose continuity while they are reading a multi-page document.

Nachteile

It would be helpful to be able to have additional documents included within our subscription tier. Otherwise, it is great!

Vorteile

I love that I can send a interactive and engaging presentation of qualifications document in an easy link. Creating the flip book is quick and easy. I like that I can keep links private so I can share it only with those I wish to access it.

Nachteile

The ability to edit pages or add pages after publication is a little clunky. Usually I simply delete and start over if there are substantial changes to pages within each document.
