The fact that it does an amazing job handling complicated Microsoft Publisher files is a big deal for me. The developer is the most knowledgeable and responsive software developer I have ever tested beta software for. Even as it moved from a limited beta to version 1, the developer addressed bugs and feature enhancements in real time, which has made me much more productive with the many old and new Publisher documents I work with.<br><br>I reviewed alternatives to Publisher, like Libre, which can open .PUB files but has many issues with complicated documents. Canva also isn’t very friendly for casual users, or for people who don’t do desktop publishing for a living. I got involved in looking for a replacement for Publisher because our church bulletin is created using Publisher. The person who does the bulletin each week is in her late 70s and has a hard time even editing existing weekly bulletins for the current week; starting from scratch for her would be impossible.<br><br>The fact that every document our church uses opened flawlessly after a few beta bugs were dealt with is a testament to the quality of this solution. The fact that a 1 time $99 fee per seat or $395 for 5 seats makes it a bargain for replacing Publisher. This is a lifetime license with free updates for the first year. Even though it is separate from the Microsoft Office 365 suite, it fully integrates "mail merge" functionality, which was a very nice, unexpected feature that the other solutions I evaluated did not support. Almost forgot: the fact that it supports the Apple environment is an added plus for Apple users.
