GBGood product. Offer swatches? I’ve been using Blurb for my annual book of my best photography for 10 years. The app for designing and producing the cover and pages is easy, as is the ordering process. I’ve been OK with the print quality over the years but wanted to see if it would improve with the higher end paper. It gets expensive ordering books just to test papers but I am happy with the ProPhoto Pearl paper. I would like to see Blurb offer a sample swatch set so people can see how each paper handles the printing of photos, text, etc. I would have been willing to pay a small fee for the swatches vs the expense of a full book.

GBPoor customer service, outdated software I've been using Blurb for over 10 years. And finally moved on to a competitor after realizing how antiquated their software is. I endured many crashes, lost projects, and wasted time. When I reached out to get support, I was sent around to 4 different people. Not one had an answer for me or could solve the issues. Not ideal given how expensive their books have become. Now that I'm using a competitor to make books, I'm amazed at how much time and money I wasted with this company over the years

GBPoor quality. I don’t recommend Paying almost £50 for a book that I couldn’t even use, due to the poor quality (bleeding it’s terrible) nobody checks any mistakes, they printed blindly. And that is not only the issue, the customer service is a disaster. No skills to deal with issues at all. No solutions, no refund, no return. Make yourself a favour and print with another company.

GBMy first time to have my pictures… My first time to have my pictures published on the front, back and inside a magazine. Then I order one to have a hard proof as a published photographer, really amazing quality, just love. In other hand you can add a fantastic customer service, fast reply and resolving a problem. I would highly recommend blurb.

AU60 books produced - all excellent I've now produced over 60 books through Blurb, all with loads of photos and the results have been very pleasing. The Bookwright software is easy to use and has plenty of options - one example being able to add a border with rounded corners to photos which looks so much better than just square-cornered photos. I've mainly used the large landscape format with Imagewrap covers and the resulting 'coffee-table-style' books look superb. I've more recently produced some Premium Magazine books and they are also excellent - and a great deal less expensive! When I've needed advice or help with a problem, the Blurb Support Team have been top class - responsive, professional and friendly. Overall - Blurb is great!
