Pretty Good Site and Products, but Could be Better Pretty Good Site and Products, but Could be Better. For the most part, I'm fairly happy with Apress! They have pretty good coverage for most of the tech topics I'm interested in, and even a couple of authors whose books I buy as a given, every year. I would love to see some deep dives into topics like real-word redux, and full-stack JavaScript and DevOps projects with non-trivial examples that are not just regurgitations of online documentation.

Highly 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.

Convenient Easy to use, and it was good to be able to download the various ebook formats in one place. I wish though there wasn't a time limit (due to various device issues, accidents, etc) on retrieving the books if you have paid for them, but I have no good or neat recommendation for handling this situation.

Wide selection of technical titles I've been an Apress customer for almost ten years and have noticed how it has steadily gotten better with time. Apress Access, in particular, provides unprecedented access to digital e-books related to very specific programming-related topics. The company constantly pushes out relevant and updated material that keeps up with the times. One of the nicest features is that Apress gives user the option to download books in EPUB and PDF formats. Both support the majority of e-reading devices. Sadly, the company stopped supporting MOBI formats for Amazon devices a few years ago. That means customers have to perform an additional conversion step if they want to use devices that only read MOBI files.

A Trustworthy and Professional Company Some of the books were print-on-demand, so I expected a slower than average delivery. This was not the case though, Apress's turnaround time is amazing. Their selection of Common Lisp books is unmatched, great company.
