GBHighly Satisfied! Apress has a nice selection of computer-related books and they provide top-notch service to go with the sale transaction. I recently just ordered three titles in print format and received the print-on-demand books within roughly 2-3 weeks from the purchase date. I've been purchasing titles from Apress for over four years.

HUExcellent service Excellent service. Books are easy to select. Ordering process if flawless. Actually ordering a book means some waiting time because of environment conscious print-on-demand system. But this is perfectly OK. If you are in a hurry: aim for the e-books.

GBLong term customer of books about software I've been a customer of Apress for many years. The transactions can be easily completed using the web site. I usually like to look through the Table of Contents of a book and, if possible, read about 10 pages of the book to get a feel of whether the book topic interests me and if I like the author's writing style. Over the years, Apress has made this more difficult. In particular, I compare this to the Manning site - which I find to be even more helpful. I still buy an occasional book at Apress and I am generally satisfied with those purchases.

GBSomething not quite right I've purchased books from a lot of sites, and many times from APress, but there was a book that I had in my cart, and every time I tried to buy it it said I couldn't, no explanation, it was in my cart, but then bounced out at the point where I wanted to complete the purchase. I managed to buy another book, so it wasn't the site having issues (broadly).
