Cost effective solution for reading many text books a year

  • February 17, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
To have the possibility to access and read tons of books for a single yearly tariff. As a freelance consultant and post-grade course instructor, I need to be updated and be able to revisit texts (also the new editions if they existed). Just for the cost of purchasing a couple of them (in some cases with that money you can afford even just only one...).
What do you dislike about the product?
I came to prefer reading e-books compared to paper ones, and also got accustomed to the advantages of them: synchronizing where you left reading among devices, dictionary/word translation, etc., adjusting fonts, etc. Perlego has some functionalities and lacks others, and the basic ones which are present, are too basic or could be improved.
Addition: I came again to edit the review (after updating my tablet). Previous rate: 8. Edited rate: 5. Although I keep my initial review comments, I now add that the reading experience is not like with e-books. Reading with Kindle or epub readers, the text is there. With Perlego, becomes annoying to have to wait each time you open a book until the text appears (like old-time internet browsing with modems), page advancing is not smooth and many times I lost the page I was reading.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As stated before, the main benefit is access to multiple sources. Compared to Amazon's Kindle Unlimited, probably I was able to find more textbooks in Perlego. In both cases, very recent editions are not included. Reading experience is regular (advancing pages, waiting each time opening a book for the text to appear, etc.)
