GBThe Ingram support team is prompt and fair. The Ingram support team always replies to my email promptly. And they are always fair when dealing with damaged or misprinted books.

GBLightning Source to Spark complete failure Total Spark database failure -- in an attempt to save money, we switched from Lightning Source to Spark, having had assurances that it would be seamless. It wasn't. Beginning on 5 March 2024 we tried to upload new covers for two of our books that we'd entered under the LS regime. Spark wouldn't take them, claiming "Imprint name already taken." Surprise! It's OUR IMPRINT THAT WE'VE BEEN USING SINCE 2011. But somehow, Spark's IT folks have been unable to flip the bits necessary to tell the Spark side that (all) our Saddle Road Press books belong to us. This has caused problems -- do I even need to say that email help has been, so far, useless? No answer, no fix -- and it's the 15th -- ten days of an unfixed problem. Two authors need review copies and we're unable to produce them. It's causing trouble. This is just nuts.

GBI needed help switching my account over… I needed help switching my account over after dissolving my LLC etc and customer service was so helpful and quick during a holiday time too! I'm very pleased as there were multiple parts that needed to be done with multiple departments and I started the process on Sunday night and it was completed on Tuesday. So pleased!

GBSteep Learning Curve but decent product First, Zak (Customer Service) was Awesome. He answered my concerns quickly and completely, with great follow-up. But everything else about the experience was not great... unclear directions on bleed and print parameters, inconsistent feedback from the process, Extended print times (even though i paid for express service), decent quality printing, though you need to use their ULTRA Premium Print if you have ANY graphics or pictures. Regular Premium Printing was horrible (low contrast, dull colors, etc). But, yes, once I got all of that figured out, I would use them again after the ridiculous self-taught learning curve.

SEUnbeatable Service! I have never experienced a faster and friendlier service from a publisher this big, and with so much to do. You really do make this experience as easy as it possibly can be. Thank you!
