I tried the Flipsnack tools on the free trial which was basically a teaser. Thinking that it had the functionalities I needed, I upgraded to a paid tier only to discover that the program's capabilities are significantly more limited than implied. I contacted customer service and they very vaguely quoted from their "policy manual." So it's basically a scam. They imply usability and then tie up your subscription fees. After I cancelled future months, they sent me an email asking me to come back. That's just silly since I had already lost confidence in both their integrity and the product.
Response to Flipsnack: Thank you for the sympathetic response and offer to find a resolution. Sadly your good intentions ended there. As of January 22, I have yet to receive direct communication from you, never experienced a fully functional product, and you've made no attempt to honor a refund. Your empty words have only deepened my distrust and disappointment in Flipsnack.

The platform seems very glitchy with no online explanations of how to fix the glitches. For example we uploaded our magazine and for no particular reason two of the pages are blank despite the PDF being fine. Also with auto playing video backdrops, you can hide the play button, but then every time you turn a page the play buttons show again, spoiling the effect for the reader.
the programs they recommended are quite disappointing. I have found free alternatives online that deliver the same results.
As a result, I will be canceling my subscription. The money I spent on these programs feels unjustified, given that equivalent options are available for free.
Beatrice was incredibly helpful and flexible. She's a great representative for Flipsnack. I suggest offering more affordable prices for Brazilian consumers, especially those who won't make a profit from the app. This would make Flipsnack more attractive and reach more people.

Very unclear description with …
Very unclear description with subscription in terms of what you are receiving as far as flip files go. Spent much time and effort trying to download just a simple flipfile, which is all I wanted. However, even with the many chats in the service provided, it was always confusing and there was never a direct answer as to why I was not able get a copy of the flipfile which i spent a lot of time working on, just so that it can be downloaded in that exact format as it was displayed, only to be told eventually that i would have to upgrade! very disappointing. there should be clear indications as to EXACTLY what one is getting!

Excellent customer service! Great Value!
I looked long and hard for the best value for my needs as a small business - we watch our pennies! Flipsnack provides the quality I need at a great price compared to the many other sites I looked at - with easy to use technology. I'm not a computer tech - it is very WYSIWYG. And even though I am not techy I can create beautiful books with video and links and look like I really know what I am doing. Finally, I have to give huge props to the customer service team. It is a small company so they did not respond right away, but as soon as they did they worked tirelessly to make sure my challenge was solved. (My book I was working on for 2 months disappeared! GONE. And they were able to restore it completely - they worked 12 hours on it and never once made me feel like it was time to panic) All in all, I highly recommend.
