See why people love Issuu
Issuu is the platform of choice for individual creators and companies everywhere.
"Issuu has been a useful tool for us to convert our documents into flipbooks. We provide the flipbooks to our brokers so they can send the links for listing materials to their clients. We also host our market reports on Issuu."
"I can't tell you how many people complimented us on the brochures – they love the way it opens up, and it's easy to read."
"Sharing a plain PDF isn't always great for accessibility, so Articles is a feature I really like within the Issuu platform. Being able to transform the publication into Articles makes it more accessible and mobile-friendly."
"It is very convenient to publish directly from InDesign!"
"What a time saver! The ability to design and then have the finish product go to Issuu with ease is fantastic. And updates are a snap! Love this plugin."
"We use Issuu's 'Unlisted' option for internal document sharing, such as parent guides and resources for our sports department. This allows us to effectively manage and share private content while maintaining confidentiality."
"Issuu allows us to display our guest magazines on our website in a user-friendly fashion. I really like how intuitive it is – the Articles are an efficient way of promoting content online."
“For our project publications, we use Canva to create the design. However, Issuu offers a perfect digital flip-through version of the files. With Issuu, we can give our audience access to our publications online, anytime, and anywhere around the globe.”
"We started using Issuu for its user-friendliness. The best part is that we're able to create the content and publish it on Issuu right from Canva. Issuu has that "WOW" factor when it comes to showcasing our work."
"Canva and Issuu are a dynamic duo that has transformed my content creation and expanded my reach beyond expectations. Issuu's integration allows me to transform my designs into interactive, engaging publications that resonate with my readers."
"We used to send out linear emails to our list, but we wanted a format that resembled a flippable document, something that Issuu flawlessly offers, which instantly made us embrace it."
"Issuu's integration with Canva has been a significant upgrade for us. It used to be a two-step process: downloading the PDF and then uploading it to Issuu. But now, I can publish directly to Issuu. This integration has been an absolute game-changer."
"What we truly appreciate about Issuu and Canva is their straightforwardness. The essentials are right there, without the clutter of unnecessary features. The user-friendly design of both platforms is what we love, and it greatly facilitates our work."
"I appreciate how Issuu allows our magazine to become interactive and readers can click on links to learn more about topics and shop brands we feature. Issuu is easy to navigate and we recommend it to anyone who has an online publication business.”
