Verified User in Information Services
Ceros' customer service was great at responding to me quickly and, for the most part, with helpful responses.
Most Helpful Critical Review
Verified User in Education Management
The platform wasn't as intuitive as we expected. We had some issue with hosting the content on our site. It was also really unfortunate that you have to design multiple versions of a piece of content for mobile & desktop.

The simplicity. It is very quick to create something that is incredibly beautiful

I'd like there to be more freedom in terms of moving items around on Shorthand, as it stands users are quite limited in terms of placement, and this isn't the best thing when using Shorthand to create online magazines.
