### "My trusted companion since more than 13 years"
October 8, 2024
5.0
How above stated my experience is very positive and I still use it till this product should be available in the market, because I can easily create my interactive books in a blink of an eye, just reusing my custo settings.
Pros
Fliphtml5 have been my trusted companion since more than 13 year ago today. I started using it when it had another name and had a part in flash and other in HTML. What I liked at first use was the smoothness of page animation. I still love it today and I never change this software just for this feature. Said so, I can talk for hour about the whole feature I used such as Page Editor or Animation Editor which gave you the chance to create whatever you like. Once you could also add an animated character that simulated the explication of the text you added in the page via audio file. But I think the limit is still your fantasy because you can customize product to your brand also adding a clickable logo. You can save settings and reuse it in other products as well as you can do with TOC and animation which can export both. Well, I just stop here to invite you giving a try to this software.
Cons
The only thing I don't like at all is that I can create the UI of my products in a language at time using the PC based version, while you can make multilingual only in online editing projects.

### "A must for self publishers!"
November 13, 2025
5.0
Excellent! Afterservice and support is the biggest issue with platforms these days. I can honestly say that the feedback and support has been nothing but stellar!
Pros
Ease of use. The system is straightforward to use and has each and every feature you can think of, just what I needed
Cons
Not much really. I would like to see a few technical upgrades but that is specific to my own projects. I have escalated this to them and they are happy to look into it for me

### "Simple and Effective Solution for Digital Catalogs"
March 17, 2026
4.0
Overall, our experience with FlipHTML5 has been very positive. It’s a straightforward and reliable platform for turning PDFs into interactive digital catalogs.
Pros
The platform is very easy to use and requires little setup time. We’re able to quickly upload our catalogs and convert them into clean, professional flipbooks. Sharing with clients is simple, and the finished product looks polished across both desktop and mobile devices.
Cons
There are no major issues so far. As we continue to use the platform more, additional customization options could be helpful for more advanced needs.

We switched for better value, ease of use, and a more designer-focused experience. FlipHTML5 provides a more efficient workflow and flexible design options, making it easier to create polished, branded catalogs.

### "SOFTWARE HAS PROBLEMS "
July 27, 2020
2.0
Support has been very poor .. Issues and complaints were sent to support who promised to look into them but never got back to us . We plan to cancel .
Pros
It is easy to upload .. but very difficult for customers to downlaod See below ..
Cons
We have nothing but complaints from customers when they try to pay for one of our books . They are unable to down load the booklet and can extreme difficulty when using pay pal. Support promised many times to address the issue but has not gotten back to us . We had the same issues a few years ago and cancelled . We figured this year we would try again but very sorry to say we still have complaints from customers and probably cancel again in the next few days . Just can't have customers complaining they are unable to download. GS Prs.

### "I finally have found a nice place for my books!"
January 27, 2025
5.0
Positive, there is an AI chatbot, it has answered all my questions!
Pros
I have written a number of books for children with dyslexia to help them to overcome the deficiency. I was looking for the platform where I can place my books for viewing by readers and with the possibility to sell my books if the readers will like it. I tried at first publuu, but they can not provide me with the option to sell my book. FlipHtml5 can! I have found a place where I can place a book for reading and selling! WoW! Thank you FlipHTML5! You really care about the authors!
Cons
Nothing wrong as of now. I needed some explanations about how to sell my book

### "Fantastic tool for creating digital flip PDFs"
November 13, 2024
5.0
I'm personally very happy with the capabilities and performance of FlipHTML5 – highly recommended!
Pros
FlipHTML5 is a fantastic tool for creating digital flip PDFs and clearly stands out from other similar software. The platform is user-friendly – you can get started right away without complicated instructions. What makes it even better is that FlipHTML5 truly offers more features and settings than other tools I have tried. The security options are also very convenient for protecting your content, and the integrated sales function makes it easy to sell directly.
Cons
I had a little problem with de payment. But the helpdesk fixed it as soon as possible.

### "Incredible service and company "
October 31, 2024
5.0
Incredible! Super responsive and lots of options. Easy to use.
Pros
FlipHTML5 is a super easy to use and works great from my needs. They are also very responsive which is helpful as it was my first time using a flip book and I needed some troubleshooting. Plus, as a non-profit they were very charitable, something other companies out there were not willing to do! I'd use again anytime and highly recommend!!
Cons
No cons, I am happy with everything about the service.

### "FlipHTML5: Transforming PDFs into Interactive Masterpieces "
January 23, 2025
5.0
In brief, I really like using FlipHTML5. It seems I cannot stop it once I start using it. I can use it for hours when I have a new book design and explore its features that can make the book more attractive and interesting.
Pros
I like FlipHTML5 because of its easy-used feature, especially for people like me who is far left behind in this fast-changing world of technology. By using FlipHTML5, I can design digital books - flipbooks- that look like printed books. And even when I want to move on to the next pages, I can just swipe the pages, like when I swipe the pages in the printed books. Besides, I can also easily insert audios and videos in the flipbooks that I have designed. It's so amazing for me, since I've never imagined that it's only a matter of 'a click of fingers" to operate audios, and even videos, in the books. So FlipHTML5 makes our life much easier by enabling us bringing a lot of information in the form of Links in our gadgets.
Cons
In terms of FlipHTML5 features, there is nothing that makes me unhappy. All the features amaze me and cannot stop me in using them.

### "Great Experience of digital magazine "
December 1, 2024
5.0
FlipHTML5 is an excellent investment for anyone serious about digital publishing. The platform’s versatility allows me to cater to various audiences with interactive and engaging content. The analytics feature helps me understand reader behavior and improve my future issues. Plus, the support team is responsive and helpful. It’s a practical, user-friendly solution that delivers great value for its price!
Pros
Using FlipHTML5 to create my first digital magazine was incredibly easy. The platform’s tools are intuitive, even for someone like me with no prior design experience. I appreciated the variety of templates and the option to customize everything to match my branding. The flip-page effect adds a professional touch, and embedding multimedia elements was straightforward. I couldn’t have asked for a better tool for creating digital publications!
Cons
They have developed so much as updated software....hope they would update appearance of video on the page its self.

Pros
Its ease of use, versatility, and modern features make it a go-to solution for creating visually stunning and interactive publications.

### "Game-Changing App"
July 30, 2020
5.0
I originally came across two other flipping catalog builders online. The first one was very expensive. The second one was better and I started using their trial version. Many months passed because my client went quiet for a long time (months in fact). Then, suddenly they wanted to get everything done. I asked the other company a few questions and they didn't even respond. That's when I decided to use FlipHTML5 and from there I can say that the whole project is a resounding success. I know this sounds a bit good to be true but it is genuinely correct. I've bought things over the Internet before and was unhappy with some of the results, but FlipHTML5 was a very good choice for me.
Pros
Without reading a manual I was able to jump right in and start setting up my client's flipping catalog. From the word go everything worked flawlessly and intuitively. When I presented the final product to my client she was very impressed and happy with the results. There were a few changes and I needed to contact support to ask for a bit of help and advice. The support was world-class because I was helped via email on a frequent basis and I was able to improve my catalog and the end result was that my client and her colleague are extremely satisfied with the catalog. Her colleague, who is the company Sales Manager, informed me that he emailed a few inactive clients who had stopped using their services to view the catalog. The results were dramatic because four of them starting using his company again after viewing the catalog online.
Cons
There was an issue with a PDF document that I wanted to link to the catalog but I was able to put the file in Google Docs so that resolved the issue. There were no other surprises or hiccups.
Reason for choosing FlipHTML5
The website of FlipHTML5 made me decide to try them. And I think the name persuaded me that things should work on HTML pages which is very important for me as a website designer. Their price was competitive. Now I know I made the right choice.

### "Fliphtml5 leaves nothing to be desired."
June 6, 2023
5.0
Fliphtml5 meets all my expectations of an application for creating online books. Besides the possibility to create impressive layouts, Fliphtml5 offers the possibility to publish the books on your own server or to download them as an App for Windows and Mac. Readers can add their own notes and bookmarks. Depending on the configuration you choose, the books can be downloaded or printed. The content can be enhanced with links and videos. From my point of view, fliphtml5 leaves nothing to be desired.
Pros
