The software is very straight forward, easy to understand, has lots of good features, and when I ran into a few problems \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] Support helped us the same day, we didn't have to wait long and that right there is a huge awesome thing. Pros It's very affordable and easy to use with lots of great features. Cons I'm a bit disheartened that there's no way to " sell subscriptions " for published magazines and such on here which is a bit of a headache since you have to do double the work creating here then posting elsewhere. Alternatives considered [Flipsnack](https://www.capterra.com/p/176854/Flipsnack/)[Issuu](https://www.capterra.com/p/212526/Issuu/) Reason for choosing Heyzine It was affordable for our small budget with good features listed and that won us over even though it lacked one important feature we felt we could make it work regardless.

June 14, 2025 5.0 Very good, easy to embed, copy, link and share. Mobile friendly: the interface adapts smoothly when you tilt your phone although this could be better communicated if possible. Pros Easy to set up and free trial, you can even organise shelves and change typography and background on which the magazine is browsed. Cons I had to search for it - in my modest opinion, not broadly known. There is a limit of 5 magazines in the free version which is understandable.

Switched from [WordPress](https://www.capterra.com/p/131687/WordPress/) I needed a more flexible implementation and maintenance method. Review Source SM Sebastiao M.

Pros The ease of inserting the contents.It's for free. Cons I had some issues with deleting the flipbooks by mistake and have no way to get them back. Reason for choosing Heyzine Was for free.

Birth Photographer Photography Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Making my dreams of a digital photo album possible" July 11, 2023 5.0 This is going to be such a cool addition to my customer’s experience with my own company. Being able to quickly put together a photo album that they can share with others will be great. Pros Heyzine does what I need for an affordable price, when I was looking for a place to put together digital photo albums for my clients I found quite a few options but so many were WAY above anything I could afford as a small business owner just starting out. Some were about the same price but the PDF was created solely on their site and their site was not very functional (IMO.) To be fair, I am also a QA Engineer of 15 years and when something doesn’t work well I tend to move on pretty quickly.One thing I like about Heyzine is that I can create my PDF in Canva, export directly to Heyzine, and just add little extras as needed. They thing that sealed the deal for me was the customer support at Heyzine, I only had one small issue when using the product, and it wasn’t a deal breaker I just wanted to mention it if they could one day fix it. I didn’t expect much. Again, aside from my own business, I also work in software development and sometimes it takes us MONTHS to fix a tiny issue. To my surprise, I quickly had someone troubleshooting with me via email. Unfortunately, we could not fix it via troubleshooting but the kind customer support person sent my issue on to the team to hopefully fix it. I didn’t really expect to hear anything more after this.Again, Heyzine blew my expectations out of the water by not only listening to my issue but actually fixing the issue the exact same day!!Their customer support and turnaround time is TOP NOTCH. 5 stars Cons There’s nothing I don’t like necessarily. I do believe this company will keep growing and improving upon an already fantastic product and I’m excited to see what they do.

CEO Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Flipbook magic at its best!" February 14, 2023 5.0 Pros We're so grateful to have discovered Heyzine through its integration with Canva. Being able to take our Canva designs and bring them to life as a flipbook has been a game changer. As authors of the children's picture book My Friend Breath, having a digital way to present the book that looks and sounds like reading a physical book is amazing. For our Playtime Practice book, we can add our breathing pattern youtube video clips to autoplay right within the flipbook which helps us to increase engagement and entertainment for our customers. We've also really appreciated the features of customizing the setup, adding a custom URL slug, and embedding the flipbook onto our website. We highly recommend this system for your digital flipbook needs! Cons I don't have any "cons" to share, we have thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated our Heyzine experience to date. In terms of additional functionality requests, when I enquired with Heyzine about the ability to include the design animations from within Canva they let me know this is something on Canva's end that they are working on which will be an exciting additional feature when it is ready! In the meantime, we can also add gifs and images from within Heyzine.

Website administrator/developer Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Affordable quality" January 13, 2023 5.0 We embed booklets and slideshows into our website. It has all worked well and been very straight forward. Pros This is an excellent application for creating flip books. It is very easy to use and yet has many of the bells and whistles found on much more expensive packages. There are options to customise the overall look from book to slider to cards, plenty of customisation of controls, colours and so on. Links can be added though we have not used this feature. Support was prompt and helpful. All this in a notably inexpensive product. Cons Nothing much not to like. The index of flip books created would benefit from having folders rather than a single page. Reason for choosing Heyzine It offers unlimited books. This is important as we embed a lot of short booklets in our website. We are not creating a catalogue type of flip book. Also it was from the start easy to use and see what it could do. Review Source TB Therese B. marketer Consumer Goods Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "I love how the embedded code works on my Website." June 22, 2022 5.0 10/10 it was perfect and so easy! Pros the embbeded code and the replace pdf functionality. Cons landscape view is not big compare to other size hope landscape 2 page will have a good view too. Alternatives considered [Issuu](https://www.capterra.com/p/212526/Issuu/) Reason for choosing Heyzine overall functionality is better than the others.and the dashboard is easy to use plus it's cheaper Switched from [Issuu](https://www.capterra.com/p/212526/Issuu/) they embedded code and replace PDF is not updating realtime we need a embedded code that we don;t need to edit everytime we change the menu. and the view of our menu is better here than Issuu Review Source KS Kelley S. REALTOR Real Estate Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Sorry I waited so long to try and buy," January 16, 2024 5.0 It's been great. I'm glad I found this program and gave it a try. Liked it so much I bought an annual subscription and am sorry I didn't try it long ago! Pros We purchased the PROFESSIONAL PLAN. I like that it's easy to use and can make updates (unlimited) without losing links that were already added in the first edition. Great customer service response - quick replies to my email questions. Ability to embed books on website. Ability to control number of viewable pages before log-in required. Like that I can add password protection if wanted. I believe having this program helps us look more professional and allows us an easier way to send something to clients without sending a large email size - just a link. (I tried to use PowerPoint Show but did not like that the presentation could be downloaded and copied. Heyzine has a control button to allow/block download abilities.) I also like the domain restriction and the ability to name brand our books to our team. Cons Haven't found anything to dislike. It's been easy to use and gave me what I was looking for. Alternatives considered [Microsoft Publisher](https://www.capterra.com/p/233254/Microsoft-Publisher/)[Publuu](https://www.capterra.com/p/214310/Publuu/)[Adobe Acrobat](https://www.capterra.com/p/251329/Adobe-Acrobat-DC/) Reason for choosing Heyzine Price is lower than Publuu. Microsoft PowerPoint Show doesn't have a download block. I have Adobe Acrobat Pro but I prefer the look of the Heyzine flipbook over a PDF. Price, ease of use, and the quick and informative email responses from Heyzine were the deal sealers for me!

February 23, 2024 5.0 I am very happy to have found and to work with this platform. It is a pleasure to transform a simple PDF file into a flippable book: I am also satisfied because the amazing result adds value to my graphic works. Pros It is easy to use, full of very useful tools, feature-rich, and inexpensive. In a nutshell, for me it is the best, compared to other products I have worked with before. Cons At the moment is not possible to upload several PDF files in the same flipbook, but the author-developer expects to make this feature available soon. Switched from [Flipsnack](https://www.capterra.com/p/176854/Flipsnack/) Because Heyzine is cheaper and still has many interesting functions Review Source CO Catherine O. Business Manager Retail Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great service that I wasn't able to find anywhere else" January 17, 2024 5.0 Pros I had considered Issuu and other similar services, but Heyzine offered the best value for their free account. The embed on our website has been great. It makes our catalog look premium despite just being a PDF. Cons I don't have a complaint since I've been more than happy with the free version. There is a "Heyzine" logo on the embed on our website, but it's not disruptive, the logo looks nice, and again I didn't have to pay for it. Switched from [Issuu](https://www.capterra.com/p/212526/Issuu/) I tried others as well but can't remember their names. Issuu had too many basic features behind a paywall. Review Source MF Manuela F.

Heyzine ist ein Geheimtipp, den ich ungern preisgebe. Heyzine handelt nach ethischen Businessprinzipien. Das gibt mir Vertrauen. Heyzine gibt mir als Einzelunternehmerin die Möglichkeit qualitativ hochwertige digitale Medien zu erstellen. Heyzine hat einen Fan :-). Pros Ich war positiv überrascht von der einfachen Integration in meine bestehenden Geschäftsprozesse und der Möglichkeit, online blätterbare Dokumente zu kreieren. Heyzine übertrifft mehrere von mir geprüfte Flip-Book-Softwares und bietet eine tolle Auswahl an Dokumenten-Arten sowie die Möglichkeit, mein eigenes Logo einzufügen und interaktive Elemente einzubinden. Besonders gefällt mir, dass ich selbst entscheiden kann, ob Dokumente zum Download angeboten werden sollen, sowie die Möglichkeit, den Hintergrund anzupassen.Die Plattform-Oberfläche ist intuitiv bedienbar und selbsterklärend, was mir die Nutzung sehr einfach gemacht hat. Auch das Dashboard ist übersichtlich gestaltet und gefällt mir optisch sehr gut. Besonders hilfreich finde ich die Möglichkeit, das PDF zu replacen.Insgesamt bin ich sehr zufrieden mit Heyzine und kann die Plattform uneingeschränkt empfehlen. Vielen Dank an das Heyzine-Team für diese tolle Lösung! Cons Es gibt nichts Negatives. Ich habe bereits den Wunsch geäussert Online-Magazine auf der Plattform zum Kauf anbieten zu können.

Cons Maybe they could improve the visiblity on how the design will look like on smartphone so that can we can get a faster idea of it and make some adaptions of our flipbook. Review Source BC Bluebird C. Director Farming Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "We LOVE Heyzine!

Pros The Heyzine flip books are well designed, helpful, simple, efficient, affordable and our BEST choice to share online flyers, directories, local sourcing info, farm to school books. Delightful to use, excellent support team. Highest recommendation. We love Heyzine! Cons ...would like to see a gallery landing page option. Several alternative gallery options currently worked well, we simply linked to our own, custom, landing page. RuralBest.com Review Source MC Morgyn C. Communications Insurance Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Love it!" March 24, 2023 5.0 I am so impressed by the platform! Pros It's sooo easy to use and amazing at such an affortable price! Cons I wish it had a TOC on the side bar and the arrows were more prominent to turn the page. Review Source TS Trevor S. Consultant Management Consulting Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Heyzine Online PDF Flipbook" October 20, 2021 5.0 I was looking to convert a personal item (a relative's life story) to a flipbook to allow friends and family to view it online. Several options came up in my search and Heyzine was one company offering a 'free' plan. It turns out that the free plan is perfect for my needs and, after a quick and friendly e-mail exchange with Heyzine support to confirm my understanding of the details of the plan, I now have exactly what I need. Pros Easy to use - just upload a PDF for conversion. The flipbook displays well and there is a range of custom options (background, navigation buttons, audio - and a lot of other media settings which I haven't explored fully). The free plan offers a lot - I haven't needed to investigate the extras available in the paid plans (which are also reasonably priced). The customer service (e-mail, in my case) is rapid, helpful and friendly. Really impressive. Cons My needs were fairly simple but I can honestly see nothing to criticise. Review Source WB Wojciech B. Manager Marketing & Public Relations Chemicals Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "A Highly Recommended Product" April 22, 2022 5.0 A very good and cost effective way to display brochures as flip page brochures on the web. Pros Very easy to upload, configure and edit. Many useful functions. Not too overloaded with all the variety. Important plus points are definitely a very good statistics page, further development of the product and the excellent support. Cons No cons for the moment. Questions that arise are promptly resolved by Heyzine's support to my satisfaction – which is a big plus. Review Source Besim M.

Como no lo había ocupado nunca tuve algunas dudas y consulte a soporte y me han respondido siempre en forma muy oportuna, rápida y con la solución precisa, utilizo muchos otros programas y siempre para mí es importante el soporte del proveedor, felicidades Pros Es muy amigable, fácil de usar y tiene un editor muy bueno Cons Hasta el momento no he encontrado nada que me moleste o incomode Review Source KH Ken H. Owner Photography Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Works for me..." February 9, 2022 4.0 Very positive. Pros Simple, clear installation and use. Good options for web presentation. Support was immediate when I had a question. Cons The page flipping speed could be tempered - can be distracting. Review Source SS Sergio S. Head Sales and Marketing Entertainment Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Amazing Support" January 9, 2024 5.0 Pros Easy to use. Many tools to build what you want. Mobile interface is perfect. Cons When use integration with Canva, the file present problems. Using direct no problem. Review Source RP Raven P. Graphic Designer Religious Institutions Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Heyzine - A Welcome Surprise!" December 12, 2025 5.0 Very happy! Heyzine was advertised to me through Canva and has been a very welcome addition to my bag of tricks. Several teams in my church have had me utilize this for them and we have had hundreds of viewers - all with great feedback! Bonus - it has lowered our need for physical printing, lowering our spending and allowing us to use that budget for alternate projects. Has certainly paid for itself several times over. Pros I love how easy Heyzine is, and how it integrates with Canva! It only took a few clicks to set up my first flipbook, and linking directly in my Canva dashboard is a must. I don't have to download my project, figure out margins, or anything. Within seconds I have a great looking flipbook I can send to congregant members, potential investors, and more. I can customize the page with colors/logos with several different brands or themes (a must when we design based on season) per project without changing anything that has been previously used. I also enjoy how easy it is to embed these flipbooks on a website - both with SquareSpace and Wordpress. Cons Overall I'm very happy - but if I had to nitpick - I wish any updates I make to my Canva project would update to the flipbook without having to recreate the entire flipbook. This could be manual with an "Update" button, or even automatically when the Canva project "saves". Ultimately, it doesn't take long to create a new flipbook so this is very very minor and doesn't effect how frequent I use Heyzine, and certainly doesn't have me looking for alternate programs. Review Source BL Barry L. Bulletin Editor Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Would I buy this again?" September 23, 2026 5.0 Pros Have been using it for years and find it a real value for communications. It was relatively easy to use and figure out without needed to do a YouTube video. I love being able to replace a pdf with corrected information or changes and have the link automatically updated. Cons My plan has a limited amount of posting options. I don't like paying for statistic detail so I can not see who is my most frequent users. Review Source Ryan G. Marketing Director Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Honest pricing and generous plans." September 23, 2026 5.0 Everything is great. The tool is easy to use, but I like it because their pricing and usage is really honest. Pros Great simple tool that has honest pricing and honest plans. I like how they don't try to upsell you or spam you, it's just a nice easy tour with generous usage plans. Cons Not everything is super easy to use, and I have been using it for a few years. The Paid Plan is super generous in terms of storage and how many flip books, and they don't try to nickel and dime you. Review Source GP Geniene P. CEO Publishing Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Flippin' Great Reads - Thanks to Heyzine" July 14, 2023 5.0 I publish a range of 14 titles including catalogues and other material that would otherwise be hard to distribute because of the size of the finished product. Heyzine allows me to be as creative as I love to be and upload the material without the hassle of trying to make the pdf smaller. Because its on PDF upload I can use any design program . I also love that my questions are answered anytime of the day or night so deadlines are not held back because I have to wait for a reply from support if I have a question. They enable my company to continue to be cost efficient and the simplicity of the software means I can focus on the quality of the finished product. I also love that I can update after its been published. Pros The absolute ease of use. As it was inexpensive to upgrade to the professional version, I found Heyzine to be full of the features I needed to make my online magazines easy to link and make interactive for those who read them. Their support team answers my questions personally and that makes all the difference. Every option is designed to make catalogues, magazines and other material simple to create. I use it for my CV, catalogues, references and much more. Stands head and shoulders above the rest. Their free version didn't require my credit card so I got to use it well before purchasing it Cons Background audio. I love that I can have background audio for my readers bit there isn't a volume control and it doesn't stop when a video or audio link is activated. There is a workaround where you can stop it and start it again after the video or audio but my magazines have many links to audio and video so that takes too long. As far as volume goes I have to try and make the music softer in Audacity before adding it. Also creating a sub domain means that existing catalogues and magazines that have a sub domain also change so it means that if you publish that link, it no longer works after you change the sub domain to a new one. Reason for choosing Heyzine Because its free version didn't have a time limit so I was able to create one or two and share with clients and make an informed decision to sign up. I also had time to learn the product so it was a natural upgrade to the pro version. Review Source TT Tony T. CEO E-Learning Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Just PERFECT !!!"
