Great interface, should be free to embed
As an early example of e-publication software, Issuu has helped our company share content consistently for nearly a decade.
PROSI like the design of the reader and the ease of creating custom embedded readers most
CONSThe major con with Issuu is that embeds and other small features that used to be free are now only available to paid users, and the cost is very high. Basic functions are bundled into packages with premium services that I do not need, so I have started using other embedded readers on our website that are free of charge.
Reason for choosing Issuu
In fact, I'm using adobe online reader and google drive more to share documents because Issuu no longer provides free embed code and the ads in the free viewer are out of control compared to the more reasonable placement of ads that were in the free viewer 3 years ago.

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.

Issuu. Free use.
Issuu is very good. It is professional. It’s quick and easy to use and you have a permanent link to the final product.
PROSIssuu is easy to use. It’s professional and it is sleek. The design is very nice. The ease of access is good. Not to mention the actual final product is very very professional and of high quality.
CONSThe pay wall. You can only upload 50 pages for free and with a limit of 50MB. This is okay for small projects but for portfolios you have to be precise with the amount of pages and use compression software.
Reason for choosing Issuu
Publuu was more expensive.
Reasons for switching to Issuu
Publuu blocked use via pay wall.
