Clown company Clown company. Their book-building tool is a joke. I added an image to the rear cover of my book, and several times during the publishing process the tool kept removing it. When it came to approving the final proofs the picture was removed. I asked for assistance and was told to ignore it - and the books arrived with image intact. A couple of weeks later I corrected an error in the text, and ordered more copies. I didn't touch the image. The books arrived without the image attached. I complained and was blatantly lied to. They insisted I had removed the image (why the hell would i??) and that their tool was unimpeachable. Clowns.

Totally nonexistent customer service Totally nonexistent customer service. I placed an order for advance copies of my book, and paid extra for rush service, which should have printed in 3 days. Now more than 2 weeks later I can't even get an estimated time to ship. Multiple requests to customer service go unanswered. I'm having a book release party with no book to actually show.

Laura is the best business partner I could hope for! Laura, IngramSpark UK Supervisor, has been the most helpful and supportive representative I’ve communicated with. There were delays with one of our orders which we urgently needed for an event, and although Laura managed our expectations and didn’t promise us it would arrive on time, it did! She truly saved the day. I’m reasonably new to the platform, and make mistakes from time to time. Laura has been quick to correct things and provide me with the guidance to get it right. I run a tiny business and some days are just so stressful, but Laura’s support has made me feel I can truly rely on IngramSpark as a business partner, which I haven’t felt in the past. I’m so grateful for her support!

Steep 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.

Zak was great Zak was great. My e-book died when Spark took over. It took awhile to get it reinstated. Zak figured it all out and the ebook is now available (again). I have enjoyed working with your automated systems and have no complaints. Thanks you, ~~Gary
