Issuu sets the standard
I teach to a great variety of audiences. It's nice to know they can find my course materials easily. And once they find me, they can find all my materials in a convenient and easy-to-use form.
PROSThe creation of the PDF format was a leap forward. Without ways to share and view PDF files, the move toward a "paperless society" was problematic at best. Issuu helped users solve that problem. With Issuu, we can upload files and share links with many users via email or social media. The interface is clean and easy to use with enough customizability to make it look clean almost anywhere.
CONSThe one feature I miss in the free version is the ability to embed my PDF files on my websites. This is a rather basic function. I know the company has to make money and this is a feature that is worth paying for. It just hurts that it was free.
Reason for choosing Issuu
Honestly, I've been using Issuu for so long now, I don't remember what else we looked at besides just linking to PDF files. At the time, PDF files couldn't be viewed in the browser. Issuu was an innovative and elegant solution.

Issuu: your library 3.0
My experience in general is positive, we with our company rely on Issuu, so it is a winning product, especially because it allows you to manage your publications, send private or public viewing links.
PROSIn case you are (mostly) a business or freelancer with editorial publications you want the digital world to view: no doubt Issuu is the tool for you.The exact feel and sensation of how to flip through a book/magazine is probably its strongest point compared to all competitors: the animation and sound are perfect, so it is really satisfying to flip through, nothing like scrolling through pages on a pdf.
CONSIssuu's big weak point is its interface. it is unattractive, fresh, and cool: it has remained too tied to its old versions, so it is nice to scroll through the pages of their published files but not nice to navigate.
Reason for choosing Issuu
Because its animations and sharing features make it a winner over others, especially being online beats programs like Adobe Acrobat Reader without a doubt.

Issuu you portfolio for better reach
Overall it's a good tool to showcase creative and professional portfolios and share them with people. Interactive transition while flipping pages gives a very natural and feel good vibe.
PROSThe layout available is easy and interactive to use. Digital form of magazine and portfolio layouts are good to look at and gives a boost to creative portfolio.
CONSThe search engine within the software can get better. Profession based or interest base search results will be much appreciated.

Why Just Read Content When You Can Experience It?
With Issuu, we were able to allow our audience to 'experience' content - not simply 'consume' it. The immersive and interactive interface gives us the ability to reach our audience in a way that resonates. We believe the very same content shared on a different platform would be a very different effect (a less impactful one). In need of a dynamic solution, as opposed to a static option, Issuu is the only platform we will use for our online magazine and resource guides.
PROSWith its ease of use and efficiency, I love the ability to repurpose and redistribute content with one asset across multiple channels. At the same time, it's entirely forgiving of human error with nearly realtime updates rendered for any and every edit.
CONSLove to have customizable short links for the long URLS that are produced for the full screen experience. Also love to link visual stories to specific URLS. In addition, I'd love to be able to incorporate videos in article stories. :)
