## Reviews

### "Used it for 9 years and counting\!" — 5.0/5

> **Stefanie** | *April 3, 2025* | Graphic Design Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It allows me to upload my books as a PDF. It’s so much easier than other programs.
> 
> **Cons**: Sometimes the printed product stretches the pages too much cutting off some of the wording.
> 
> I’ve used blurb over the last 9 years to pinkish 12 books and I love it. I’ll never use another platform.

### "No reliable service, zero accountability" — 1.0/5

> **Mar** | *February 11, 2025* | Design | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Good quality of products. Easy app interphase. Fear price.
> 
> **Cons**: Very disappointing experience. My order was delayed without any notice—I had to reach out myself to find out what was going on. After multiple follow-ups, they suddenly canceled my order without my consent, blaming an internal error, and told me to reorder instead of just printing and shipping it.

Poor communication, zero accountability. Wouldn’t recommend if you need reliable service.

### "My Go-To book printer" — 5.0/5

> **CJ** | *November 14, 2024* | Design | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Really fast delivery and high quality printing
> 
> **Cons**: Really there is nothing to complain about once you get the hang of the software.
> 
> Very Excellent\! I also appreciate their customer service response and resolutions. They went beyond expectations

### "Great product but very high printing costs" — 5.0/5

> **Beverly Mae** | *May 8, 2024* | Photography | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The bookmaking software interface is user friendly. Paper quality options are numerous as well the cover type options.
> 
> **Cons**: The printing cost is astronomically high. An 8x10, dust cover, 240 page photo book will cost you $141. Affordable perhaps as a one-off but not affordable for bulk ordering for retail, even with the 25% discount on 50+ copies. This is my only complaint. I hope Blurb can lower their printing costs.
> 
> My overall experience with Blurb is positive. But the high printing cost is about to make me consider looking elsewhere.

### "Excellent Software" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *April 4, 2023* | Farming | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Blurb's interface is a noteworthy feature because it is user-friendly and enables users to produce, modify, and distribute their work without difficulty. The software offers various customization options such as templates, fonts, layouts, and designs, catering to the diverse needs and preferences of each user.
> 
> **Cons**: pricing has been identified as relatively expensive compared to other self-publishing software in the market. This could be a significant concern for some users, especially for those who are on a tight budget.
