## Reviews

### "best support ever" — 5.0/5

> **Toni** | *October 28, 2024* | Architecture & Planning | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: fantastic support. I had a problem with kotobee reader on windows. Within 24 hours I received an answer that solved the problem - on Sunday. I can highly recommend the program
> 
> **Cons**: I can't judge. I use in for epub with audio function and it works.
> 
> Everything an epub reader for windows needs is there - and usable epub readers for windows are rare. and as I said, the support is great

### "Great product" — 4.0/5

> **Tomás** | *April 15, 2024* | Writing & Editing | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The variety of tools that allows the creation of interactive and interesting books
> 
> **Cons**: When you erase a photo or video from a chapter, it doesn't erase from the file manager, so I lose a lot of time looking for the file to erase it. Because if i don't erase it, my book gets too heavy for an upload.

-----

### "Buggy Software for ePubs" — 1.0/5

> **Moni** | *November 27, 2023* | Media Production | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: 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.
> 
> **Cons**: 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.
> 
> 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.

### "Easy and accessible" — 5.0/5

> **Ellen** | *December 30, 2023* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: 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.
> 
> **Cons**: 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.
> 
> We have enjoyed working with Kotobee overall, and look forward to continuing our book series with them.

### "Ease of Creating an Interactive, Enhanced eBook" — 5.0/5

> **Wayne** | *April 3, 2023* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The ease of organizing all the multimedia content. I particularly liked the audio sync option, the anchor and link options and the quizzes.
> 
> **Cons**: The system crashes quite often. Sometimes my cover would disappear when I checked the Customization options. I had a lot of trouble publishing on Google Play. Understanding what Google wants in targeting and pricing is very difficult. Also not being able to work with Apple at all.
> 
> The price was great. The costumer service was fantastic. Nadeen was an extremely helpful and encouraging person. She made me feel that I could succeed when I was troubled or confused. She helped me all the way.
