With OverDRIVE, you can easily empower your digitization and enhance your workflow with dashboards and content collaboration.

Pros

With OverDRIVE, you have an easy and straightforward solution for increasing work efficiency when building web pages. OverDRIVE can easily transform Drive or other G Suite content into web content.

Cons

Using OverDRIVE content transfer, some items aren't transferred correctly and it takes a little bit of optimizing on your side to make it perfect.

It is average quality. I suggest trying swipe pages for landing pages and tagdiv composer for WordPress.

Pros

as i am able to create landing pages with drag and drop builder i am easily able to create whole website.

Cons

It doesnt support more customization and doesnt have lot of prebuilt designs like tagdiv composer. Also, it doesnt support integrations like stripe and paypal.

### "A unified method but you have to be a techy to get the most out of it."

May 30, 2021

Well when a library is loaded, free, multi formatted and with e-audio all with my library card. Then the experience has to be great!

Pros

My school library extended, with \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] collection it is growing daily...but if I've not time to sit and read, use Overdrive to listen, Having the books in e audio and e books format support my way of learning and reading. They access library card access help me to bring my collection from my own library into a single app. Overdrive has load of self help title which are all in e-audio formats. Love this. Given many books are in the e-pub format, there is additional ease for enlarging the words and pages.

Cons

I find it very difficult for new user to make sense of the Kindle app. It’s not intuitive, it should be easier. The apple (ipad) and Android(google play) are so much easier to use. I prefer a full month for loan as compared to 21 days, I am not a speed reader. I am busy and sometime need some more time. I hate having a book 75% read, then losing the setting becuase the books gets checked out after 14 days, and I have to start over from my new loan.

Reason for choosing OverDRIVE

Did not have to compare becuase it was part of the offer from my library.

### "Audiobook junkie"

April 17, 2021

5.0

It's so nice to know OverDrive is there. I can say YES more often to my kids when they want to listen to a book, and I never have to worry about spending too much on audible when I can use OverDrive and borrow form the library!

Pros

Several years ago I became HOOKED on audiobooks. My favorite birthday gift every year are my audible credits. However, often I use up my credits and still want to listen to books! That's when I discovered I could "borrow" them from my local library and use OverDrive to listen! This was the exact solution I was hoping for.

Cons

This is probably my most common complaint...aesthetic. I'd love a more simple, streamlined interface that felt more intuitive. That said, I've been able to listen no problem...this is personal preference.

### "This builder helps you easily create a place for your team to collaborate"

June 20, 2018

5.0

Pros

Using Google Drive, I use this platform within my classroom and within parent groups to help sharing and editing of documents in a place that can easily be accessed. This program is perfect for that.

Cons

Layout and design seems quite basic at times and is limited, but for collaborative purposes that might not matter.

Hi John. There are some advanced layout options which are not entirely obvious for new users - we can set up a session to show you these in action if you wish?
