### "Useful"

November 6, 2021

5.0

It's very helpful. As a self-published author, I use it often to convert files so I can meet all the requirements for the distribution of my books.

Pros

I like that it's free, relatively easy to install, and I can convert docx and PDF to epub and mobi formats.

Cons

It takes a while until it opens, and also it's laggy when you open the epub files with its epub viewer plug-in. Doesn't work with older versions of Word, only docx.

### "Useful and Fairly Uncomplicated to use"

March 26, 2022

4.0

My experience with calibre is positive and I'm sure other users will also find it useful and easy to use.

Pros

Converting files to common formats is easily accomplished. Transferring files also straightforward.

Cons

I am not going to pick holes in Calibre for the sake of it. I found it met all I asked of it.

### "very good ebook reader"

March 29, 2020

4.0

I use it rarely, as I don't often read ebooks, but I think I will start soon using it because of the lockdown, I might change my mind on the app.

Pros

I like the fact that it's free and that there are many plugins too customize it to my needs, even if I still have a long way to get to know it better. I'm using the pc version.

Cons

I don't find it easy to manage and to set plugins correctly, I don't like the layout of the application and I think not all the menus are user friendly.

### "The best way to save and format books"

August 28, 2020

5.0

We have a lot of resources that are available as pdf files, and several of our team members prefer to read on their kindle readers. Calibre makes it possible to convert these pdf files to a nice-looking readable format.

Pros

I love that this software is still free and available for download. I've used it for years to convert pdf to mobi files for the Kindle.

Cons

It was hard to learn at first, and it doesn't always recognize my devices when they are plugged in. It can be a little slow.

### "Better for books than docs"

October 15, 2019

3.0

I need a tool to edit contracts that are .pdf documents

Pros

I seems to have the functionality I am looking for. It is less expensive that some of the other options

Cons

It seems to be better suited to converting books than documents, although you can edit documents with it too.

### "Calibre, an easy way to manage and document"

January 22, 2020

5.0

Thanks to calibre I can convert my documents in pdf or any pdf in any other kind of file really quickly

Pros

I like the ease of use of the product and the amount of format in which you can convert any document.

Cons

The worst of this software is the slowness in opening on the pc. Sometimes it takes more than a minute

### "A Wonderful Ebook Tool"

April 30, 2019

5.0

Pros

Calibre offers the most complete suite for e-book management: it not only allows you to easily store an array of ebook files, but it also allows you to quickly and easily convert between file types as an exceptionally high quality - not bad for a free software!

Cons

The aesthetics are a little bit retro. Perhaps a minor complaint, but wouldn't mind seeing a UI reboot at some point!

### "Not so intuitive."

February 21, 2023

3.0

Poor. I use it because i have to, not because I want to.

Pros

Its main feature is the call recording and tag calls based on keywords. This kind of works like it should.

Cons

It's not very user friendly to use with many clicks to do everything.
