### "Elevating Digital Publications with Joomag"

February 10, 2023

5.0

Our overall experience with Joomag has been extremely positive. The platform has proven to be a reliable and effective solution for digital publishing, offering a range of features such as advanced analytics, interactive content editor, and social media integration. The ease of uploading and distributing content, along with the quick and responsive live chat support, has made Joomag a valuable asset to our organization. While there may be limitations with the number of publications we can create, this is a minor issue compared to the numerous benefits that Joomag provides. We are very satisfied with our decision to switch from our previous platform to Joomag.

Pros

The ease of use and versatility of the Publication Content Editor, the ability to create and manage targeted marketing campaigns, and the comprehensive analytics and reporting features, combined with reliable live chat support, are some of the key aspects we love about Joomag. The platform has streamlined our digital publishing process and has provided us with valuable insights and data to make informed decisions. The quick and efficient support through live chat has been a huge plus for us.

Cons

One of the things we like least about Joomag is the limited number of publications we can create with our current subscription plan. However, this is also a testament to the effectiveness of the platform and the frequency of our use.

Reason for choosing Joomag

We chose Joomag over alternative products for several reasons. Firstly, Joomag offered advanced analytics that provided a deeper insight into our audience behavior, allowing us to improve and tailor our publications accordingly. Additionally, the platform's on-demand customization options and the ability to add interactive elements to our publications was a key factor in our decision. The live chat support with quick response times was also a big plus, as compared to other platforms which either lacked live support or had longer response times. Lastly, Joomag's social media integrations and streamlined campaign management further cemented our choice and made it the clear choice for our digital publishing needs.

### "I do not recommend Joomag for long-term publishing - horrible customer service"

October 28, 2017

2.0

None. We regret our decision to utilize Joomag.

Pros

Joomag offers a very easy to maneuver the platform that is very user-friendly. This is what attracted our company to this publishing option. We took a lot of time looking at various flip book programs and finally settled on Joomag.

Cons

Joomag has cost us time (and MONEY) due to inexperienced customer service reps and malfunctioning software. Both their subscription fees and hard copies are at a premium price -- but they will REALLY get you with storage fees. And don't expect to publish your magazine on your own time frame. If there are hiccups with publishing after hours, you are out of luck. If you do have a complaint about the premium-priced print-on-demand hard copies (and we've had many), Joomag will make you jump through hoops to replace it. Yet, with each print quality complaint, it was the same response, "We know there is a problem and are working on our hard copies and will improve our quality." There was a time that Joomag would call me when they screwed up, but after a series of debacles that stalled our operations they decided that "phone calls weren't their policy". I would not recommend this platform to anyone that wants to present a magazine that seeks dependability in their publishing platform -- along with attentive and responsive customer service. When I recently canceled my premium subscription (after 3+ years) due to too many mistakes on their part, they slapped me with storage fees. Their "solution" is for me to pay up or delete past issues of the magazine...which is a scary proposition for any publication. Why would anyone want to publish with a company that would suggest that the product is deleted? It's disheartening to know how they treat their "valued customers".

### "Digital Publishing Outside of the Box"

October 9, 2024

4.0

If you're not afraid to try something new, Joomag offers a bit of a break from the cookie cutter formats of some digital publishing platforms. You can create beautiful designs and mock ups with room for lots of creativity and the analytics were also impressive. Great resource.

Pros

I like the templates provided, the variety of interactive features and functions offered and that it allows for easy drag and drop design.

Cons

I wish the platform was more mobile user friendly for those on the go and there is a slight learning curve but that's to be expected. If you use a range of programs, it may be prohibitive for those who don't utilize it often.

### "If there were 7Stars Gold this would be barely sufficient to explain what service Joomag gives back"

April 5, 2018

5.0

Since August st, 2016 we now have a worldwide photography and fine art publication attracting thousands of artists from all over the world. This is Joomag's power

Pros

A perfect ease of use. Amazing distribution platform beyond professional and the most powerful tool for online publishers, adding an amazing worldwide print. Animated galleries, integration with all social media platforms, richmedia from audio to video that play flawlessly and an app that makes INSPADES Magazine the most innovative photography and art magazine Check our page out to verify what we are talking about. If you read till here, the best is yet to come. The customer care of Joomag is beyond perfect. They take care of all our problems and concerns as their very own. They take care of our readers and quickly report with solutions.

Cons

The subscription page may be a little bit confusing for readers that not are adept with technology. Redeeming eCoupon codes are somewhat hard for novice internet users.

### "Joomag is a great way to publish your work and share it with others"

January 4, 2020

4.0

At my full-time job, I publish a newsletter using Joomag. Once it's created, I can easily share a link with the rest of the company. We also use it as a way of sending our catalog out for review.

Pros

Joomag is a fairly fast and easy way to share publications with others. It gives you plenty of privacy options as well, so you can grant access to anyone, to those with a link, those with a password, etc. The viewer is also pleasant, with a nice page-turning effect.

Cons

I don't like the way the zoom works when you're viewing pages. There's a slider at the bottom, and you mouse over different areas to see a zoomed-in image. The problem is, if you want to focus on one particular spot it's difficult to stay on that spot, as it'll move when you move your cursor away from that window. Not ideal, if they had a way to lock on a zoomed spot, that would be great.

### "Joomag is not for those who are disabled or non-profit sector"

April 10, 2018

1.0

Pros

Joomag is great at marketing themselves. They appear to be standing by waiting to help with excellent customer service. They do make their platform look simple. Though, can't give any pros on the software specifically because we were never able to use the platform.

Cons

Purchased subscription for our non-profit for patients with disabilities. We were unable to use the software because of illness and it was too difficult. (Too complex if you have cognitive and memory disabilities and too much variability in the controls if you have a tremor or other movement issues.) We explained it was not compatible with those with disabilities, and we politely asked they refund our non-profit for the months not used. (Not a full refund for the months we tried to use it.) DENIED! We approached them again, explaining with more detail the issues we experienced with the platform. Again, DENIED, because we were 9 days past the halfway billing cycle. 9 DAYS! Very disappointed.

Overall this is a great software for marketing and visualisations for your view. Also used this is useful for Graphic designers

Pros

Easy to use, meaning I can easily upload pdfs, enhance with interactive videos and forms and finally share shortlinks to my potential clients. I can truck who opened my publication and how many people has seen my catalogues.

Cons

Their new editor need some more features as the old one. The viewer sometimes loads long if there are many interactive elements inside publication.

Hands down the best platform out there. The live feedback from our readers is invaluable.

La experiencia de uso del software, es buena, permite familiarizarse rápidamente con este tipo de herramientas y hacer cada vez más fluido el desarrollo de la misma.

Pros

Es muy friendly, cualquier persona con algunos conocimientos de diseño gárfico y manejo de programas de edición audiovisual, puede hacer maravillas con este programa.

Carga un poco lento y es invasivo con la publicidad en su versión gratuita. Tiene problemas ocasionales con los videos que se colocan en reproducción autimática, suele pasar que comienzan a sonar, aunque ya estés mirando otras páginas de la publicación.

### "Limited Functionality "

December 5, 2019

3.0

Allowed us to give a nice presentation of our brochures, but the benefit does not extend to mobile.

Pros

Joomag is cheap and easy to install. It creates a nice looking digital book without breaking the bank. Does a great job on desktop.

Cons

Joomag doesn't really work on mobile. It also can take a long time to load. If it weren't such a value, we would have switched a long time ago. Ultimately, we have decided to move on to something more sophisticated.

### "I've been using joomag since 2013. It's a magnificent platform that delivers incredible value. "

April 9, 2018

5.0

Pros

I researched a lot of platforms before deciding on joomag. All of the other always had one critical thing I needed, missing. Joomag has everything I needed. And I will also say that over the years, they've added features and functions that are important. I feel like they listen to their users. It's really a great platform. I couldn't be happier. I haven't looked elsewhere since.

Cons

Honestly I can't think of anything I don't like. Most of the shortcomings I would've mentioned have been eliminated over the years by adding new functions. I'm happy with joomag, completely. Although I guess if you are designing the magazine or publication using their design center, I think there should be more fonts. But that's not a deal breaker for me. And I design my publications in a separate design software.

### "Joomag provides the best combination of features, device compatibility, and price"

April 10, 2018

4.0

Pros

When searching for a new provider for the digital edition of our magazine, the things that were most important to me were ease of use, speed of implementation and presentation/user experience for our readers, regardless of device. Joomag provided the best combination of those features at a good price. Their chat support is also very responsive.

Cons

They recently launched the HTML5 version of their viewer on desktop, and there are some issues with it. Several pages of my magazine have to be manually re-processed by their team each month to ensure proper presentation with HTML5. I am confident this will eventually be resolved, however. Also, purchasing additional storage can become quite expensive.

### "Sehr praktisches Digital Publishing Tool!"

March 23, 2021

5.0

Pros

Was mir am besten an Joomag gefallen hat, ist dass es ein sehr benutzerfreundliches Tool ist. Bevor wir angefangen haben, das Tool zu nutzten habe ich eine Einführung bekommen und als ich später noch Fragen hatte, wurden diese gleich beantwortet. Das Analytics Funktion gefällt mir sehr, da man hier sehen kann, was angeklickt wird und welche Seiten am besten performen.

Cons

Ich hätte mir ein paar mehr Funktionen gewünscht, wie z.B. ein leicht anzulegender Home Button für alle Seiten, der zurück zum Inhaltsverzeichnis führt.

### "Super Präsentations-Tool!"

November 23, 2020

Top!

Pros

Einfache Bedienung! Ich habe Joomag genutzt um Präsentationen zu erstellen und habe dafür sehr viel positives Feedback bekommen. Man kann problemlos hochauflösende Bilder und Slider sowie auch Videoclips einfügen. Die Präsentation wird nur als link versendet. Ausserdem war auch der Kundenservice sehr zufriedenstellend und Anfragen wurden stets umgehend beantwortet.

Cons

Ich konnte oft keinen kopierten Text problemlos einfügen und teilweise fand ich die Bedienung etwas umständlich. Aber man gewöhnt sich schnell daran.

Pros

Joomag has made it easy for our Newspaper staff to get the word out. They have been posting a new issue every three weeks when the Newspaper was only printed twice yearly in the past.

Cons

So far I haven't found anything that I would want to change about the software. It is easy to use, straightforward and intuitive.

### "Only Used it as a PDF viewer attachment to Website"

December 3, 2019

5.0

Worked for what we needed, wasn't the greatest quality.

Pros

Because of the limited capabilities of our department website we used Joomag to publish an online PDF of our printed pamphlets. We didn't use Joomag to create anything, just to upload PDF's to be viewed on our website. It was nice and completed the functions we needed. We could go and link pages with page numbers for easy navigation for the user.

Cons

The link through our website always took a while to load. The website wasn't the easiest to navigate and the tools weren't all that intuitive. But again, we were using Joomag for just one purpose and didn't dive into all available resources.

The fact that not only do they provide software, but are also willing to modify it incrementally and teach you about all the features and how to use them maximally

Cons

Quite a few tools that thy provide, so it can be confusing sometimes to use the website or their servuces

### "The best platform for publishing "

August 14, 2020

5.0

In my opinion, Joomag is the best platform for publishing books, articles or papers online.

Pros

I love the user interface and the functionality of the website. Everything is arranged in a very neat manner. One of the best features is the flipping pages' option to read through an online publication. I would say it comes as close to reading an actual book as possible.

Cons

The inability for fully edit any single page and working on the design is somewhat counter-productive.

Those who read our online magazine are able to do so easily and instinctively.

Pros

Its efficiency and ease of use as well as a fast and efficient helpline - on the few occasions when I have had to use it. It is a simple process of embedding our magazine on our website as well as making it available on mobile devices.

Cons

I can honestly say that I have no complaints or concerns at all abut this software and its many useful utilities.
