Innovative, Fast-Paced, and a Pleasure to Work with.
They are an absolute pleasure to work with. I've been in the technology business for twelve years and have worked with hundreds of 3rd parties. By far, Publitas is my favorite. The fact that they come to our quarterly meetings with not only free upgrades, but revenue-driving features is incredible. All partners should behave the same. In addition, when we also mention improvements we'd like to see in the future - it's as if by magic, the feature is ready for us within a week or two.
Pros
Publitas is consistently innovating their e-catalog software to allow for embedded playable videos, slideshows, animated gifs for an incredible user experience. Every three months they come up with something that is astonishing. Now, they are working on personalized catalogs, automated builders, lead-forms to acquire new customers, and integrating into sales applications. Integration was easy. Publitas was up and going on our site within 3 days once contracts were signed. (It took us time to load in our 25 catalogs.)
Cons
The google tag manager integration is cumbersome; though Publitas is entirely willing to assist in the setup process as well as help us debug issues that originated in the original EPIserver setup.

Publitas review for magazine business.
Very good, the quality is impressive. But I would like to have more options to place banners around.
Pros
Easy to upload pdf files, add links, image hotspot, connect with my google analytics, embed in my website. Good design overall to share with our readers.
Cons
Would like to add search option, for our magazine is critical that our readers have this option to make their experience more rewarding.
