Great photobooks! Easy to prepare via online tool. Only concern is when books get large (eg >80 pages) it gets a little clunky to edit, plus would be good to be able to add new pages in the middle of book so you don’t need to shuffle lots of images around

Calendar & Book: Easy to create and good quality very pleased with the service. It would be an advantage to be able to make the image smaller within the chosen frame, this icon it not always available.

Everything about the website is very user friendly and easy to follow. The end product is a great souvenir of a trip or special occasion.

I had produced an A3 calendar on glossy photographic, because I thought it would help produce depth in the images. It did. Great! BUT this calendar hangs in the kitchen (as a reminder of holiday destinations....) above a radiator, and it just curled badly. So much so, that it was impossible to view because of reflections, etc. SO, I reproduced it in photographic lustre, which has been fine - doesn't have the depth of colour, but a least it stays flat in the same location. I did let Bob Books know about this - there was no way that I anticipated or expected the gloss calendar to curl. I got an acknowledgement but it's been an expensive calendar overall.

The lay-flat photo books are immaculately made and the wait for one to arrive after designing and ordering it is not long. The free downloadable design program from CEWE is up to date and, given a few obstructions and irriatations, allows me pretty much to create the books as I want them.

I decided to upgrade the software but didn't find it as easy to use. Information suddenly appears where I am working - every time in moved my cursor then different pieces of Information were shown and I got quite cross. I expect I shall get used to it in time. The quality is again excellent.

I have found Bob books to be a fun and efficient way to get photo books and calendars. Their software is easy to use and the finished article is just what you hoped for.

Photo album came on time and was easy to create. Would prefer more templates that are not using square shaped photos, as most photos do not fit in this frame, but easy enough to create your own template.

The Bob Books software is very easy to use, and allows you to create a photo book over a number of days, uploading your photos to the Bob Books web site when you are ready to place the order. It would be nice to see a couple of tweaks to the software, as it can be difficult to position photos accurately and consistently from one page to the next, and to ensure that fonts and drop shadows are consistent throughout the book; and there are aspects of the software that are a little dated. Another issue is that coordinates and dimensions for photos are in centimetres rather than millimetres, using a comma rather than a full stop / decimal point for fractions. But these are minor gripes. Using the software, you quickly and easily produce photo books. The quality of the books is very good but could be even better. This may be because I normally choose the "Classic" paper option rather than a higher gloss, which might perhaps provide a more professional finish. It would also be nice to be able to order books that are A4 sized, the format I choose being a little narrower. I would consider that the books offer reasonable value for money but can start to get expensive when adding extra pages. The books always arrive in good time, and are well packed. Overall, I am happy with Bob Books, and will order more books in the future.

Once I worked out the software, it was very easy to make my photobook and I am very pleased with the finished product.

This is the fourth time I have used Bob Books. The desktop software is relatively quick and easy to use. My books arrived slightly quicker than expected and were well packaged. The books are also very good quality and I will definitely use Bob Books again. I've given a rating of Good rather than Very Good because of the price - it certainly isn't cheap, but then again I suppose you get what you pay for.

I would say that compared with other providers that I have used, the quality of the photo books and calendars is good, as is the turnaround time. But Bob Books is expensive. Also I don’t find the software to be particularly user friendly.

I found the s/w feature rich; but obviosuly more features means harder to use. Most things were intuitive. Online help wss good and seemd to be human. Print quality on the calendar seemed poor - worse than last year. Both in terms of colour and definiton.
