A Perfect Fit for Magazines and Catalogs
We were looking specifically for a way to publish a digital magazine on our website that included shopping cart functionality. DCatalog's shopping cart connects to our website's eCommerce platform via API, and thus allows readers to shop throughout the magazine, adding items to their cart along the way, and then check out through our normal website experience for order completion. We simply create product links using the DCatalog page editing tools, and product images then become clickable with a popup modal showing pricing, size selection, available colors/flavors, etc. DCatalog works exactly as we had hoped!
PROSThe admin dashboard is a pleasure to use, which features analytics (both built-in overviews and detailed Google Analytics integration), document upload and edition management features, as well as basic page editing features. The workflow of allowing designers to create PDFs using their software of choice (e.g., Adobe InDesign), and then handing them off to another team for upload to DCatalog, adding links and publication on the website is a perfect fit for us. Another feature we've really come to love is the ability to replace individual pages on a whim, such that typos can easily be fixed, as well as time-sensitive promotions removed after expiration, etc. This allows our magazine editions to remain evergreen and easily maintainable.
CONSOne minor annoyance I've observed is when I've tried using the provided link-building tools for creating circular links. The drawing tool provided is polygonal only–there is currently no ellipse tool–so circles have to be drawn using a series of straight lines, so they end up looking like octagons instead of perfect circles. If DCatalog were to provide an ellipse tool (similar to Adobe Illustrator and others) in addition to the polygonal tool, my only compliant would vanish!
Reason for choosing DCatalog
The shopping cart API integration was the key for us. Other products had some limited functionality (like Shopify integration), but we needed something that could connect to our existing in-house system via API to leverage our already existing GDPR, country-aware and language-aware cart solution, as well as our existing inventory–without the need to recreate it on another 3rd-party system (like Shopify).

DCatalog is AmaZing!!!
Our overall experience has been very good. We are very pleased with DCatalog and will continue to use their services. The customer service staff, [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN], has always been helpful and kind. She is knowledgeable and friendly and the 1st year her and some of the other support staff went out of their way to assist us when we were new to the digital game and didn't even have our magazine formatted properly for digital. Through the work of the graphic designers we use and the DCatalog team we made it work and we were so grateful. After that it has always been smooth sailing with DCatalog and we are sticking around!
PROSThe fabulous quality of the product. We publish a digital version of our full color 74 page magazine annually and the graphics quality is incredible. Also, the ease of use of the final product is wonderful. With several choices on how to navigate around the magazine's pages, DCatalog has made the digital version of the magazine very popular with our clientele. They can jump straight to our schedule of events or go back to something they just read with ease. We love DCatalog!!
CONSUmmm...I don't have much input here. Truly the DCatalog platform is very well put together and user friendly. If I had to say anything about what to improve then I would suggest maybe adding some additional tutorials for new users. The first year I uploaded the digital magazine, I had to figure out what I was doing. It took a little time but was not overly difficult. With that being said, maybe just some more obvious "Hey Newbie...over here" type tutorials for those that are brand new to DCatalog. Honestly, once you're using it for a while it's pretty easy.

Great Product & Company
We were working with another provider of a similar software, however, they were not responsive. We switched to DCatalog because from day 1, we had someone we could call directly here in the US. The staff a DCatalog have also listened to our needs and delivered on features.
PROSWe purchased this product because they have US based support team that is responsive, knowledgeable and helpful. Additionally the software is flexible and something we use for external and internal Customer publications due to it's flexibility.
CONSWe have several hundred publications which requires use to manage revisions, but that is the nature of what we do.

Policy Manual
I like that it is very easy to work with from our employee website. We currently utilize DCatalog for our Americas Policy Manual and have zero complaints from the colleague end.
CONSI find it difficult to make changes. It seems as if you need to know codes or there is a very unique way of making the changes to the policy manual which makes it difficult to change policies or benefits more frequently - even as much as a simple typo could go.

Great looking system on the front and back end
DCatalog is always quick to answer our support questions. I don't have the long wait like we do with other vendors.
PROSDCatalog makes our online homebuyer booklets look so professional. It makes it easy for the user to navigate through the book and do whatever they need to whether it's a straight download, using the interactive links or writing notes on the pages. We have it in Spanish and English so the user can choose which one they are most comfortable with very easily. On the back end we are able to add our own multi media, link the booklet to Google Analytics and track the usage of the different booklets.
CONSOn the back end you have to create all new templates for any version that is different from the original. It would have been nice to have the option to clone and edit a template, but that is really the only stumble we had.

Review
Overall, it's been a great program that we use. It's allowed us to cater to our older generation by allowing them to still "flip" through magazines while allowing our younger generation to still use technology.
PROSI like the ability to link different parts of our magazine to different areas on our website. It keeps our older generation happy, while still allowing us to move forward technologically.
CONSIt doesn't seem to offer as many features on mobile as it does on desktop. We're increasingly moving towards a more mobile world.
