#### Pros

Instant magazine offers extensive options for personalisation, is easy to use, and has beautiful templates.

#### Cons

I can't really think of something negative about Instant Magazine. It's simply a great tool to create beautiful content. Some of my clients would like the options to fully download it as a pdf, but I think that's more a transition of mindset about ONLINE magazines vs offline ugly pdf's ;)

#### Vendor response

Thanks Tim for the great review! We are so happy to hear that you have been able to create personalized magazines and brochures through our templates offered on the platform. It is now possible to download publications into a PDF so your clients will now be able to do so. We look forward to continuing to have you as part of our community and keep on doing great work!

### Fantastic, frustrating, functional, fair, flippant, friendly

#### Ratings breakdown

- Value for money: 3/5
- Customer support: 3/5
- Functionality: 3/5

#### Pros

Easy to use, produces attractive publications. Allows you to demonstrate creative flair, whilst not having to undergo a steep learning curve.

#### Cons

The drag and drop, honestly does not work properly. I honestly don't understand why this was introduced, it is clunky and unuseable for the most part. I have tried and then had to abandon projects using drap and drop. When you are going through completed magazines, it also shows traces of the underlying template that you have been using. I think its a nice idea, but in reality does not work. Needs urgent attention. Thumbnail previews don't always work, which is frustating particulary when you are posting online.

#### Vendor response

Wow, so many words to describe our platform! We are so happy to hear that it has allowed you to show off your creative flair in your content. We are also constantly working on improving our platform and so you can follow our product road map to see what improvements we intend to make: https://roadmap.foleon.com/the-foleon-roadmap/cover/ Thanks again for sharing your experience and let us know how we can continue to be of service.

We could not get it to work well with our SEO, and nor could we get it to report ads well. A lot of our customers did not like the experience of the magazine that we produced

Hi Ralph, our customer success managers have tried to reach you unsuccessfully for several weeks, I am sorry to hear that you feel we have let you down. We would still love to work with you to find a solution and show you the SEO features you may not yet have seen. We are eager to hear from you.

### Great platform for internal communication

- Overall rating: 4/5
- Reviewer: Pamela M.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Information Technology and Services
- Company size: 1001-5000 employees
- Product usage: Used weekly for less than 2 years
- Reviewed: January 2021
- Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered

The system is easy to use and very intuitive. I use the platform to publish a weekly update which I share with internal colleagues and I rarely have any issues in doing so.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

- platform is easy and intuitive to use - new features are introduced quite regularly making it easier to work with - you can hide from search engines (good for my publications as they are confidential and for internal use only) - easy to convert to ZIP if files need to be downloaded - customer support is always easy and clear

#### Cons

- the margin function is not the easiest to control. At the moment I have to drag the margin up or down to increase or decrease the space between paragraphs. It would be great to pre-set the margin size on a paragraph element so I don't have to edit. - you are unable to delete publications as a publisher, you have to be an admin which was frustrating when I was only a publisher before

#### Vendor response

Thanks for your review, Pamela! Great to hear you find our platform easy to use, that you appreciate how often we launch new product functionality and that our support team is serving you well. We've taken note of your feedback regarding working with margins and the user rights that are connected to our collection of roles!

### Foleon is a great digital publisher

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: bruna m.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Accounting
- Company size: 1001-5000 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months
- Reviewed: April 2021
- Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered

My overall experience was indeed positive, except for the "ctrl z"/undo issue.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 2/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 3/5

#### Pros

What I liked most about this app was that I can create digital publications directly on it, without having to pass through many steps, in example: create the document on adobe indesign, then export the PDF, then convert it, then publish it. Foleon is amazing because I can work and share the publications online, without any further problems!

#### Cons

What I liked least about this software was that there was absolutely no way to UNDO my actions, and I say it's a really serious issues, I almost lost what I did because of accidental clicks. I used to work with WIX and RD station and they already have this solution developed. I do like Foleon but I need to point this out to developers or UX designers because it breaks a fundamental law in user experience/interface: the user must have a way to undo or go back on his actions.

#### Vendor response

Thanks for reviewing us, Bruna! Great to hear our platform is saving you time through increased productivity and that you're publishing content faster than before. We can assure you that undo/redo is at the very top of our priority list - we hope to take our first steps this year! Update: Undo/redo functionality is now available!

### A new and slick looking way to show off your content

- Overall rating: 4/5
- Reviewer: James N.

New website for customers - local newspaper style - has been achieved much more easily and rapidly than we'd have managed with Foleon. It's a big investment but offers a lot of potential.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 3/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

Visually attractive and offers a fresh and dynamic way to create different kinds of microsites, content hubs etc. Very flexible, works for a range of different types of content, such as e-books, brochures. This software helped me deliver a big project in a speedy fashion that was very well received by key stakeholders at the company. Helped make the kernel of an idea quickly into reality. The key people at Foleon - in our case [SENSITIVE CONTENT] - have been absolutely top notch in helping us to achieve the goals we wanted to by taking on Foleon.

#### Cons

Sometimes the formatting of text or dragging and dropping elements can be niggly and frustrating. Embedding social media has proved to be an issue. These are not reasons to be put off though and I know improvements are being worked on regularly. The response from customer success/support team is very quick and friendly.

We love the dynamic abilities of Foleon - it's been a great benefit to the company. Our marketing team now has the ability to create beautiful pitches and presentations, that are far more engaging than PPT.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5

#### Pros

I like the ability to make dynamic content and collaborate with others on the platform. Our customer rep, [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] is awesome, and always there to help us along the way. It's been a great add for us and helped with user engagement. Also love the analytics aspect.

#### Cons

The platform can be extremely slow at times, especially when publishing. I also wish we could lock down content and media files - think google drive approach. I would like the have the ability to share when needed, but keep locked when needed too.

#### Vendor response

Thanks for your review, Elaine! We're excited to hear you're benefiting from our platform when it comes to content creation, engagement, and analytics. Thanks for your feedback regarding publishing time and sharing/locking access to content and media, we've forwarded that to our product team!

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 3/5

#### Pros

Good platform for creating engaging long form content such as eBooks, brochures and sales proposals. Much better than PDF docs, more interactive, better navigation and gain analytics on user engagement. Foleon team also very committed to ongoing product updates

#### Cons

Pricing can feel like it's getting steep at times/certain features paywalled when already on a relatively high package. Would be good to have a better create PDF function - it's usable but not ideal when someone does want a PDF version.

#### Reasons for choosing Foleon

At the time/from memory Foleon was more flexible from a design perspective and better integration with Hubspot/analytic platforms

#### Pros

Love the user experience, all the possible ways of using creativity to create something unique, and the possibility to deliver awesome products to our clients and their clients. The bounce rate is truly something, for we have an average of 3-4% bounces... Which is amazingly good.

#### Cons

It takes some time to create truly good background images in some templates. For example, when I'm posting a page about a motorcycle, I need an intro text and a background image. The introtext takes up about half the screen on mobile, and since I'm depending on the brands' images, I need to add a lot of scenery around the target in the image. But... Since I have to choose between these text and image on such a small screen, it's the best critic I can think of. Instant Magazine is amazing and editing capabilities are extremely user friendly.

#### Vendor response

Thank you for your review, We are happy to hear that you have created unique and awesome publications for your clients and that the bounce rate is so low! We appreciate your feedback regarding the background images and will pass it on to our product team since we are constantly looking for ways to improve.

I was very short on time when I was researching Foleon and it was impressive how quickly I was able to move from the first call to the demo, and signing the contract + a smooth onboarding and first meeting to design our digital ebook templates. Such a great team to work with!

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5

#### Pros

Foleon's been great to work with, product and customer support team, and their knowledge base is incredibly robust. I appreciate how easy and intuitive the drag and drop functions are, and if I ever have a question then one of their help articles can guide me to the right answer (not to mention their very responsive customer success team). Foleon is exactly what our organization needed to take our content to the next level. Very sharp and polished and interactive!

#### Cons

Would looooove to have/see an "Undo" function implemented so I can feel more free to experiment inside the platform. At this time, I have to be much more careful in changes I make because I can't simply "undo" an action, therefore I feel like I'm working much slower than I'd like to.

We can assure you that undo/redo is at the very top of our roadmap; we hope to take our first steps this year - empowering you to more freely experiment with your content and design!

### Instant Magazine allowed me to quickly and easily create an engaging web experience.

I managed to turn around an engaging user experience quickly and effectively, creating a consistent product in multiple languages. It worked with very little headache, and I loved how free I was to design at my own discretion, with very few limitations, save for time and my own imagination. Thumbs way up on this product.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

The drag and drop functionality worked well, removing much of the headache around designing a mobile experience that looks/works well in a desktop viewport. I found myself free to design whatever I wanted without much constraint or limitation. Everything just works.

#### Cons

There were a few things I wanted to do with the tool that I was unable to at the time of publication, such as creating an anchored link. But Instant Magazine shared their feature rollout calendar and I was pleased to get insight into what would be included down the road. It didn't help me out at the time, but having the knowledge that in the future I might be able to accomplish that task was nice.

#### Vendor response

Hi there Alain, Thanks for taking the time to review us. It's great to hear how you're loving the Drag & Drop editor and how it can help you create responsive publications. We also appreciate your feedback and will send it over to our product development team since we are always looking to improve our product. We're always happy to help and keep on doing great work!

### Foleon is a true, streaming, online design platform.

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: Mary M.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Management Consulting
- Company size: 10000+ employees
- Product usage: Used weekly for less than 6 months
- Reviewed: March 2021
- Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

Once I mastered Foleon’s learning curve, the pages started to come together. Foleon’s "drag and drop" platform uses branded blocks to build pages in real time. You can change typography, colors, and create a brand platform on the fly. The tutorials are very helpful. I followed through with them side-by-side as I prepared my first project. The FAQ backup pages filled in many of the blanks when I got stuck. We are moving away from pdfs and this has great potential.

#### Cons

Wish list. In an age of universal streaming, with occasional connectivity issues, Foleon should add a “save draft” button or some way to save in real time. An undo button. I’m also unsure how to move certain files around. If I save something as a template, is it a universal template, a project template, or a publication template? Especially when there are levels of brand distinctions or publication hierarchies. Dividers should be able to go to max width. They have a variable width.

#### Vendor response

Thanks for your review, Mary! We're excited to hear our platform is empowering you to create branded content easily and move away from legacy formats like PDFs. Our platform saves all edits you make in real-time and we can assure you that "undo" is at the very top of our priority list; we hope to launch the first functionality this year! Update: Undo/redo functionality is now available! Check out this video for more info: https://video.foleon.com/undoredo-is-here-and-thats-not-all.

### An amazing product to make a fabulous magazine!

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: Corrie A.
- Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months
- Reviewed: May 2018
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 5/5

#### Pros

Every week I make a small online magazine. That's a big task for me. But with the tools of Instant Magazine I can make a magazine that looks really professional with not a lot of knowledge.

#### Cons

There are a lot of options, I could do with less options, it makes it sometimes more difficult then necessary. And sometimes I would like a picture in an other place but that's not possible.

#### Vendor response

#### Pros

Easy to use, looks stunning, fantastic way of making content connected with Google Analytics. For example; producing whitepapers in PDF did not have this option. You don't have to know all the ins and outs of the software tool to make wonderful looking content. The software helps you, even software simpletons.
