### "My trusted companion since more than 13 years"
October 8, 2024
5.0
How above stated my experience is very positive and I still use it till this product should be available in the market, because I can easily create my interactive books in a blink of an eye, just reusing my custo settings.
Pros
Fliphtml5 have been my trusted companion since more than 13 year ago today. I started using it when it had another name and had a part in flash and other in HTML. What I liked at first use was the smoothness of page animation. I still love it today and I never change this software just for this feature. Said so, I can talk for hour about the whole feature I used such as Page Editor or Animation Editor which gave you the chance to create whatever you like. Once you could also add an animated character that simulated the explication of the text you added in the page via audio file. But I think the limit is still your fantasy because you can customize product to your brand also adding a clickable logo. You can save settings and reuse it in other products as well as you can do with TOC and animation which can export both. Well, I just stop here to invite you giving a try to this software.
Cons
The only thing I don't like at all is that I can create the UI of my products in a language at time using the PC based version, while you can make multilingual only in online editing projects.

### "A must for self publishers!"
November 13, 2025
5.0
Excellent! Afterservice and support is the biggest issue with platforms these days. I can honestly say that the feedback and support has been nothing but stellar!
Pros
Ease of use. The system is straightforward to use and has each and every feature you can think of, just what I needed
Cons
Not much really. I would like to see a few technical upgrades but that is specific to my own projects. I have escalated this to them and they are happy to look into it for me

### "Absolutely Smashing"
May 13, 2026
5.0
Brilliant. Customer service is second to none. Programme itself is easy to use, intuitive, easy to preview, quick to upload very large and image heavy PDF files.
Pros
After some considerable research into many similar products on the market, I went with FlipHTML5 for a variety of reasons. Cost, number of uploaded booklets and file sizes I could have at any one time, the ability to have an enbedded passwrod so my flipbooks remained private but the end user didnt need to type anything in to gain access... but most of all, I was swayed by the excellent customer service. I enquired about a few things before we signed up, and I got very swift (and very helpful) responses every time with step by step guidance with pictures on how to achieve what I wanted.
Cons
So far - nothing. Its done everything I need it to do, and I still feel like i have a lot to learn and expand into

### "SOFTWARE HAS PROBLEMS "
July 27, 2020
2.0
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.

### "Simple and Effective Solution for Digital Catalogs"
March 17, 2026
4.0
Overall, our experience with FlipHTML5 has been very positive. It’s a straightforward and reliable platform for turning PDFs into interactive digital catalogs.
Pros
The platform is very easy to use and requires little setup time. We’re able to quickly upload our catalogs and convert them into clean, professional flipbooks. Sharing with clients is simple, and the finished product looks polished across both desktop and mobile devices.
Cons
There are no major issues so far. As we continue to use the platform more, additional customization options could be helpful for more advanced needs.

### "FlipHTML5: Transforming PDFs into Interactive Masterpieces "
January 23, 2025
5.0
In brief, I really like using FlipHTML5. It seems I cannot stop it once I start using it. I can use it for hours when I have a new book design and explore its features that can make the book more attractive and interesting.
Pros
I like FlipHTML5 because of its easy-used feature, especially for people like me who is far left behind in this fast-changing world of technology. By using FlipHTML5, I can design digital books - flipbooks- that look like printed books. And even when I want to move on to the next pages, I can just swipe the pages, like when I swipe the pages in the printed books. Besides, I can also easily insert audios and videos in the flipbooks that I have designed. It's so amazing for me, since I've never imagined that it's only a matter of 'a click of fingers" to operate audios, and even videos, in the books. So FlipHTML5 makes our life much easier by enabling us bringing a lot of information in the form of Links in our gadgets.
Cons
In terms of FlipHTML5 features, there is nothing that makes me unhappy. All the features amaze me and cannot stop me in using them.

### "Great Experience of digital magazine "
December 1, 2024
5.0
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.

Thus far, I have had a very positive experience with the platform. It works just as planned. Everyone from staff to our audience loves the convenience of having our program on their phones and tablets.

### "STARDISK STUDIOS totally vouches for FLIPHTML 5"
March 29, 2023
5.0
Pros
I am the CEO of STARDISK STUDIOS. We are a Model Agency and Marketing company at the Top of Tokyo. We've recently started a Fashion Magazine called STARDISK EXCHANGE. In order to ensure the highest quality to our audience, we needed a good platform. I honestly don't think I could have found a better one than FLIPHTML5. Go with them, you won't regret it!
Cons
There's this one bug that sometimes causes the pages to freeze when zooming in, leading the reader to have to refresh the page and start over. This needs swift attention. But other than that, FLIPHTML5 is all Aces!

### "It is good quality and can be used inexpensively. great."
January 12, 2024
5.0
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 leaves nothing to be desired."
June 6, 2023
5.0
Fliphtml5 meets all my expectations of an application for creating online books. Besides the possibility to create impressive layouts, Fliphtml5 offers the possibility to publish the books on your own server or to download them as an App for Windows and Mac. Readers can add their own notes and bookmarks. Depending on the configuration you choose, the books can be downloaded or printed. The content can be enhanced with links and videos. From my point of view, fliphtml5 leaves nothing to be desired.
