Allison B
Litigation Paralegal
5.0

Allison B.: Hi, my name is Allison. I am a litigation paralegal, and on a scale of one to five, I give Dropbox a five. Currently, we use Dropbox to actually communicate with other attorneys, courts. We store our files there, and it's very, very time management, and it's great so that we can literally assign clients their Dropbox. They can go in and they can insert pictures or whatever they need to put in those spots also. So we basically use it as a tool for our case management. What I like most is that I can use it here at the office or if I'm at home. Let's say I'm on vacation, I'm never without it. I'm always able to access it and get the information. It's not like just, okay, if you save something on your desktop or on your normal computer, you go out of town, client call, you have no access, you have to call into the office. But with Dropbox, you always have that information, so I like the flexibility. Well our firm is pretty large. We have about anywhere from 15 to 20. We do way over $1 million in revenue a year, so I haven't had a problem where anything gets stuck, anything get lost, or I get to a place or go somewhere where I'm not able to access Dropbox. So right now I'm fine with it.

Travis T
AV Leader
4.0

Travis: Hi, I'm Travis, a Director of Development in the non-profit industry, and I would give Lucidpress four out of five stars. Before Lucidpress, we had Microsoft Illustrator and unfortunately it wasn't as intuitive to me. When I jumped on board in my position, I was looking for something that had just a wide range of features, and it didn't seem like at least our version of Illustrator was up to snuff with the vision that I had for the assignments that were before me, such as newsletter generation and other things. And so when I looked around, searched online, said a prayer, because I had no idea where to go, I actually came across Lucidpress and was pleasantly surprised. At the end of the day, after doing my search through the different publishing softwares, I decided on Lucidpress because it seemed like it not only gave us the most bang for our buck, but it also seemed to just have all the features that we need. They're constantly doing updates, and it's been four years since I made that decision and I'm still very comfortable with it. It's just been very easy to get the job done and also to train staff. They seem to pick it up pretty easily as well, and that helps. And so it's just been a nice process. Our printing company, they work well with us and they seem to understand it. And it's a really big plus to have it as cloud-based because when you're sending those big files, it's nice to just be able to go to the printing company, download it on their computers, and just allow it to do its job, and for them to take over from there, rather than having to dumb down one of the files in order for it to process or send via email. So there's a lot of great features to sum it all up, and the addition or the option for it to be on cloud is just a huge plus that makes our workflow a lot easier. It was very easy to onboard into Lucid. I was given the task of creating a newsletter that had already been in existence before I had started at my current position, and I had a vision for what I wanted to do, and it was great to be able to get into Lucid and easily identify what needs to be done. And I don't have a graphic design background by any means, but it just talks and shows and presents itself well. And so I think anyone who has a general understanding of what they want to do and of manipulating even Microsoft Paint or something like that, I think you would be able to pick up Lucidpress pretty easily. If you're considering Lucidpress, I would recommend that you gauge the price against the features. I think that's a huge draw to have a cloud-based publishing software. You might gauge it against the others, against the competitors, and assess even the templates and the things that are already available to you. I was able to create the newsletter that is still going on by manipulating a template that was involved in Lucid for our purposes. I did a fair amount of changing it, but it's still actually, four years later, serving as the base. And it's given the feel and the branding to our non-profit's newsletter. So I think just based on the price, the cloud integration or the cloud availability, and then all the features that come in, I think if you gauge it against the other ones, the competitors that are out there, it's going to be a very competitive publisher. And I think you would be good to make your decision with it and you'd feel that you confidently made a good choice.
