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.

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.

121 books out of 200 books amateur Ordered 200 books on fast order. They just about got here on time. However, of the order, 121 of the 200 are poor quality and look amateur. They say there should be 1/16th leeway on the print but the title is clearly not straight and the spine formatting is not straight either, but is for 79 books? The rest are unsellable. They blame the publisher for their errors. Unacceptable and waste of time and money. Very poor. As for the generic response that is frustrating, annoying and unhelpful. Waste of space.

Great distribution and printing, less than ideal UX Great distribution and printing quality. I’ve moved away from Amazon print on demand as Ingram spark’s physical product is better. the user experience could do with some love (e.g hard to decipher error messages), and it would be great to have some marketing options incorporated other than adding the book to a newsletter (e.g. google ads).

Ingram Rocks! My first job as a kid was working for Ingram Book Company sweeping and cleaning up after shipping. Honored to have them print my book The Puckford 7. Theres been a couple issues with cover alignment early on which they corrected. Such a nice book to hold in your hand Glossy Hard Cover or silky Matte Soft Cover! The new e-Commerce Links option is excellent if you would like to side step Amazon KDP. KDP Books are nice! Glossy! KDP has weird size requirements for HC. Work with a great set up house, watch You Tube videos how to upload and modify your files. Direct distribution via Barnes and Noble is pure gold. All the negative comments on here are from people who do not know what they are doing, or their book material is the problem and not Ingram. My books ROCK! Beautiful job printing inside and out! Shipping could be a little more speedier and books better packed if you are ordering one or two. Customer Service is very good with a speedy response! Author Artist Michael Fischer @ toonsthatrock.com
