As a teacher, I find Kotobee Author as a very useful tool in developing learning materials that capitalize on e-learning as its format and way of delivery. With this tool, I have unlimited opportunities to engage my students in meaningful, engaging, and interesting way to learn stuff. Its special features such as photo galleries, integrated animations and videos, and interactive quizzes with real-time feedback are a sure hit among the learners. Add on the list the myriad of widgets that can be used in incorporating gamification in the classroom or in online distance learning. I cannot ask for more. It's a time-saving, all-in authoring tool for teachers like me! More power, Kotobee!

Kotobee Author has all the tools one needs in making an interactive e-book. I love the fact that its output can take several formats: an embeddable tool in various LMS platforms, a separate mobile application, or as an e-pub material. Further, I find its features very engaging. For example, third-party elements can be integrated in the e-book such as Hot Potatoes, Eclipse Crossword, and Word Search Puzzle Maker. And with the aid of basic coding, one can facilitate unlimited materials using HTML 5 Package. Finally, the tool gets updated more often than not, which I find so interesting since every update comes with improved features. Oh, and I'd also like to add that its customer support is top-of-the-line, since it gives free one-on-one demos or tutorials which the user can schedule in his/her most convenient time. Awesome!

It has everything I needed in looking for a quality authoring tool, but Kotobee software can still be improved if it could allow more access to its elements and features even offline. It's not all the time that I'm connected to a WiFi, and in cases where internet connection is poor, it becomes challenging to proceed working on the platform, though one once is already connected to the net, the application tool automatically syncs and saves your work, so nothing goes to waste.

Overall, so far it is a great solution for my company's goals.

The features and integration with other apps

No cons at this point. The customer service seems to really value the customer.

I love this platform so much. It is capable of doing so many incredible things to fit the needs of our upcoming library. The most amazing part of this whole process has been the customer service aspect. Nadeen Amr is possibly the best customer service rep for a company I have ever had the pleasure of working with. She answers every question I have had (and I have had a lot of them)! She answers thoroughly and leaves no questions unanswered. For months we have been working on a project and she is always there for us when we need help or have more questions. I have had over 5 Zoom calls with her to discuss, and get in-depth with some product features. She is so helpful and always has an amazing attitude. I can't say enough about her :) I am lucky to have her help through this harrowing process of creating an online library. Thank you so, Nadeen. As for the product itself, its ease of use is immaculate, and so easy to upload and integrate with other systems and our website. I am so excited to really start using it.

We do not dislike anything so far about Kotobee

At first, I liked Kotobee. I was able to format my epub easily...until I exported it. None of the exports look like the preview nor are they compliant with the latest epub 3 software.

I liked that Kotobee has a lot of options and customization as well as the ability to edit the epub html and add custom css.

I haven't yet gotten an epub export that will function on popular platforms. I've been trying to get responses from tech support for three weeks, and they have not done anything to help me with the issues. It's a buggy piece of software that constantly generates error messages in the html code.

We have enjoyed working with Kotobee overall, and look forward to continuing our book series with them.

We love the ease of set-up and use--the way the program is designed makes it clear what the finished product will look like as well as allowing us to add different types of interactivity to the books.

Sometimes when the program is updated some features are either no longer available or no longer function--but when we've had these issues, Kotobee customer service has been very attentive and responsive, getting back to us immediately and working quickly to resolve any problems.
