I like how simple it is. The data automation features save me save me steps in the designing process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Solving the problem of inconsistent branding. Now that I have created templates that can be shared and redesigned by everyone company wide, we have a cleaner and more professional branding all around. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Marq?

The most helpful aspect of Lucidpress is the ability for our various departments within the organization to create and share both digital and print collateral that keeps consistent branding while reducing the load off our marketing/comms team! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Marq?

The downside is the difficulty with exporting clear crop/bleed marks when working with our printer. It is not as easy as I feel it could be. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Marq:

Include other departments in your initial conversations in order to increase buy-in and implementation across the board. This proved to be very helpful in adoption from other teams for us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Lucidpress has impacted our work by freeing up our marketing/comms team to remove the bottleneck that typically happens with one-off requests that require ample time. It has been a win-win across the board for our many employees and teams! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Marq?

Easy to use and wonderful for beginner to expert print and PDF projects!

Simple yet effective tools and features, such as collaborative work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Marq?

There were a few menial downsides, such as the price point to unlock all features. I believe the package for business with more than one user or collaborater is required to unlock all tools. I did not need them all for a specific project but would have been nice. Also, more editing tools fir the price per month would have been nice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Marq:

For beginners, I highly recommend giving it a try! If you like the free version but need a little more features give the trial a try and see if it's worth the price! I thought it was for a month to month basis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Marq solving and how is that benefiting you?

I needed to work on a project but limited on funds, the free version very helpful! Even if I needed more features a standard month subscription is very affordable! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Marq?

What I like most about Lucidpress is that I can use it from the web, without installing any application on my computer. I also love that it has been a great help for me to create my own didactic materials, to show my students how they can present theirs, or to create publications as a collaborative project. I recommend it for all subjects and educational levels. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Marq?

Sometimes the platform is slow and I find it difficult to insert texts Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Marq:

Lucidpress is free, accessible from the web and compatible with the main browsers. The user only has to register through an email or through his Google account to access the tool. Then, you can enjoy all the possibilities it offers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Marq solving and how is that benefiting you?

Lucidpress has become my right hand to create excellent publications that I use in my classes, I have been able to create my own printed or digital publications for free, work them as a team with my students, and share them on the net. Thanks to Lucidpress my classes are super interactive and the performance of my students has increased positively. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
