A great digital publishing tool!

The coolest way for designers to create and publish digital contents!

PROS

Twixl is the perfect solution to manage creating and publishing digital native apps. No coding knowledge is required, so you can focus on design creation instead of wasting time on troubleshooting. Moreover, the Twixl team keeps working hard on offering many new features years after years, fitting each of our customers needs.

CONS

Sometimes I miss a kind of "bridge" linking InDesign to Twixl, that could make easier and faster the way you upload contents on the distribution platform ; just as it already does from some CMS (Canvasflow, WordPress...).

Probably the most efficient Digital Publishing solution at an affordable price

Many companies have left Adobe DPS and Aquafadas to turn to Twixl: the recipe of the success? Great workflow / ease of use / affordable.

PROS

An amazing workflow that allows to create a fully-featured mobile apps and Web Desktop version without writing a single line of code. Even low profile in your company can manage remotely the content of the app/web site. The only solution that offers so much features for such an affordable price. Quality support.

CONS

Digital Publishing conveys many different type of medias and learning how to merge them together in one workflow requires a lot of knowledge and training. Twixl succeeds in offering an efficient workflow but in some aspects they could do better. The method used by Twixl to design the layout of the app could have been better by using nowadays Web technologies where we design with the mouse, instead Twixl uses a programming method but in a friendly interface.

Reason for choosing Twixl

Adobe's solution in Digital Publishing was not easy to use, required a lot of resources, was *very* expensive and had a bad to medium quality support. Aquafadas proposes a similar solution but aimed at other targets. Also Aquafadas increased their prices and at one point was 8 times more expensive than Twixl.

Reasons for switching to Twixl

Adobe's solution in Digital Publishing was not easy to use, required a lot of resources, was *very* expensive and had a bad to medium quality support.

Really worth for money and the most powerful platform to create apps

Twixl is just perfect and worth more than paid. Minimum version requirements • iOS: 10.x or higher. • Android: 5.x or higher (tablets with screen size of at least 1024x600)

PROS

A very much supportive background is there and has a bunch of tools to carry out the tasks. Making quality, complex mobile apps is nothing with twixl. Believe or not, you can do it without any single line of code! Other digital publishing platforms are harder to use than twixl. There is also a free trial version which contains almost all the functionalities so you can get an idea in advance about twixl without actually paying on it. Twixl provides lots of resources to support you and to help you get familiar with the twixl publisher solution.

CONS

However, there are some issues I’d faced while using twixl practically. • It is not free. • Need InDesign and Xcode.(barely) • Need to be registered as an apple developer first.

Best B2B and B2C content-driven apps solution

PROS

Easy of use, integration with other platforms, and no need to have development language knowledge to start creating apps.

CONS

As a very extensively integrable solution, the support could be limited sometimes in specific cases. Other than that I think no cons!

A great no-code platform to design apps

PROS

Twixl has managed to create ready to use templates allowing users to focus on the app interface and design and waste less time in coding

CONS

Sometimes the workflow can feel limiting in terms of how creative you can get. It also comes at a hefty price.
