I have been using AnyFlip intensively for one year now. I am an artist, graphic designer and photographer. For myself and for some galleries, I produce many catalogs and books about famous artists, as well as publications about my work. Initially, these publications were issued mainly in printed form, but recently electronic editions of publications have become especially popular. Especially with the COVID crisis, the usefulness of electronic publications has become apparent. Thus, 10 months ago, with the gallery with which I collaborate a lot, we set up an e-library of all publications published so far. In the last 20 years, we have accumulated over 100 presentation catalogs and monographs by national-famous artists, which are now PUBLIC AVAILABLE as e-publications. In this case, I recognized AnyFlip as an even friendlier format than regular e-books in e-libraries. The publications are accessible to readers directly - without logging in, and the flip format offers the best approximation to a real book. I also found that casual AnyFlip publications are also very suitable for various presentations or as an art portfolio or similar. By sharing a link, we can easily share or embed content in websites and similar...
AnyFlip is for me one of the more useful tools I’ve discovered in recent years!
Thanks

Pros

- ease of use
- wide applicability
- the best approximation to a real book (graphic design remains intact)
- ease of sharing publications

Cons

- outdated graphic appearance of bookshelves, more layouts of shelves should be available

I was very pleased with the product that we created using AnyFlip. It is definitely something I will share in the education world to showcase student work. I was displeased, however, with the customer service of AnyFlip. I emailed several times to ask questions and to find out some information so that we could use the product in the best way for our needs, and I never received any responses except the initial one that told me there was no phone number to talk with anyone. After that email, none of my actual questions were ever answered by anyone. This was disappointing.

Pros

AnyFlip was so easy to use. Our students were able to produce a beautiful published magazine from their creative writing class. They put their work together on a Google Slide, and we then exported it as a pdf into AnyFlip. It produced the beautiful result that everyone was hoping for, and the students were so proud of their work and effort. We were able to share the link for others to see.

Cons

I purchased the product instead of using the free version because of some of the features it looked like only came with the subscription. I did not see the benefit of the paid version, however. I now worry that when I cancel the subscription the product we have may be changed or messed up. Overall, I have no problem with the software. I wish the information given and customer service would have been better to handle the questions and uncertainties we had.

Covid has shut us down for 13 months but if it hadn't I would be a frequent user. It's a great product and has helped us considerably.

Pros

I am not a software wizard, far from it. It took me a while to set up my first book and I'm still a little puzzled but I think I have four or five that exist. My target audience has found it easy to use and to my benefit they review the entire document and come back to me with questions and in many cases sign up with our services.

Cons

Like I said, I am just a little bit better than a software idiot. At the time that I started using this product the customer service seemed a little lacking or a better word, foreign.

AnyFlip has been helpful when needed. I'm not sure how long we'll need to continue using the program but for now it's working.

Pros

As clients and companies move away from requesting print media for proposals, AnyFlip has been a valuable tool in sending digital books/brochures that are typically laid out in a full 2-page spread. Knowing the digital version of our material will be seen in the correct format was a primary reason for choosing AnyFlip.

Cons

There are some slight glitches in going from the computer version loading a book to the online version where the weblink is created. Very often the pop up window that has the final "send" command (or similar) is locked off screen somewhere and I can't access it. i end up blindly pressing Tab/Enter hoping i have selected the right command. lol. Linking feature to our company website isn't clear. would love the instructions to be written for someone with VERY minimal website coding experience.

Anyflip is a wonderful company to work with, they have the best flip books I've encountered and are very up to date with their technology. The customer service I've used only a couple of times was met promptly and with genuine concern for my further enjoyment of their software.

Pros

I loved the ease it took to learn the software. Being able to add sounds, video, music along with stunning animation helps give reason for readers to choose our digital format along with our standard print edition. As our readership grew online, it didn't take long for people from all over the world to finding the publication and to sign up for our newsletter.

Cons

No auto save. We have a few times durning storms where the power will flicker or go out shutting down the computer. I am used to not backing up my work as I used to 20 years ago, but since most of the programs I use have auto-backup I seldom thing to hit save every five to ten minutes.

Pros

When I was looking for a virtual flipbook option there was so much to choose from but nothing was really a quality program that was also affordable. I'm so glad I found FlipBook cause it is even better than I imagined. It does everything you need and more, creates beautiful quality flipbooks and in a time of COVID when we can't have physical products this has literally saved our lives!

Cons

I have nothing negative to say about this program. The free version does everything we need and the paid version is even better.

Overall I still liked the finished product. I believe as, with most programs you use, there is a learning curve. It would be very helpful if AnyFlip could create videos or provide better instructions. The program is somewhat intuitive and this allowed me to stumble my way through the process. I will be using this product again and feel the more I use it the better I will become at using it.

Pros

The simplicity of uploading pdf to create the Ezine.

Cons

Unclear directions such as how to make corrections to a published product. I struggled to find directions for use or making corrections. I depended on YouTube videos created by other users not by AnyFlip and Google to find help for errors I made in using the product. AnyFlip Help pages (video) would not open. The user material isn't helpful at times due to a lack of direction. I struggled with finding how to make corrections to a published product for days. I sent emails to get help yet it took days to get a response. I stumbled across the answer by chance three days before I received a response to my email for help. Which was fortunate for me to meet my deadline.

I have hosted enormous documents on Anyflip being accessed by 200+ participants at one time during live events.

Pros

I like that it hosts the pdf for an indefinite amount of time. We host educational events and host our educational materials on the site for participants to refer back to even after the event. Can also be accessed by hundreds of participants at once.

Cons

I think the viewer looks a bit dated. It works fine functionally, but the design looks like it's from 2006.

I'm using it for a Custom Hoe Builder who is a client of mine. We use it to show new prospects his portfolio. The client likes the quality of the flipbook but he has asked me several times "isn't there an easier way to share this". I see there are different options, but I'm relatively new to this and there's no way to get my questions answered. It's really frustrating and I feel like eventually, I'm going to have to switch to a more customer-friendly vendor.

Pros

It was easy for me to upload my PDF and the flipbook looks great when we send it to clients.

Cons

There is no support. There's a really poorly produced automated video, but no one to ask questions of, no resources, and it seems very outdated. I would like to use some of the other features, but without anyone's help, I'm left with just uploading and sharing through a link. I wish there were more instructions.

This has turned into an excellent software that I have used on multiple occasions for Gospel tract ministries in the United States.

Pros

I like the ability to make the digital PDFs available online for others to look at and use. I like being able to include links to my publications for other's to view, it has aided my fellow ministers in their ability to share the Gospel tracts they have published.

Cons

Figuring out how to make custom sized presentations was a little tricky and took several times of adjusting the size to finally make it work.

For as little as $25 a month and if you use it regularly, it's worth it.

Pros

I have used different Flipbook-type applications and all are pretty straightforward. Some are more difficult to navigate than others but end up with the same results. I searched and located Anyflip and tried it for free. I had already created the PDF booklet so it was easy. I was able to create a simple flip and send it to my client for a sample. From there additional edits needed to be made to I purchased the Pro entry and glad I did. It has everything you need.

Cons

Overall it has been an excellent experience using AnyFlip. I have large bookshelves (over 100 books) and have not had any issues.

Pros

AnyFlip is super user-friendly. The coding allows me to integrate by bookshelves easily into my website.

Cons

When you re-upload a book already in your library it does not stay in the same location, you have to physically move it from the top of your bookshelf back to it's original spot. I also found that when re-uploading the cover page doesn't update - so I would have to create a brand new book and delete the old one.

Cons

Also, occasionally my uploads would fail and it would take me longer than necessary to upload the document.

The option of using AnyFlip has allowed us to save a lot of money on postage for our publication. It is the reason we came to AnyFlip.

Pros

We only publish 4 times a year so this means that every time you go back into the software to publish it's a learning experience all over again. It should be set up easier then it is for those that maybe do not publish weekly or even monthly.

Cons

Always having to search for the security option becomes time consuming some times.
