The way they've treated early adopters has been disrespectful to say the least. Name calling, cursing and truly unprofessional behavior - because early buyers tried to hold the team accountable to their plan updates and promises when they sold a lifetime deal.
Abandoned core features promised to LTD supporters, and a lack of communication in pivoting to Prophet features are intentional strategies that ultimately erode my trust in this company and its future direction.
THIS WAS MY PREVIOUS REVIEW:
One of the best blog-tools I have ever used. Clever, easy to use, flexible. A clear recommendation.
THIS IS MY NEW ONE:
Don't invest and trust the founder! After investing in Storipress he now closes it and wants us to use … another tool? No thx. DON'T trust this company.
Nice, but what is it's site and page ranking? How do I get my stories to rank, and does publishing on Storipress make it rank better than on my Wordpress blog?
I actively used Storipress to manage a few publications. I love the "desk" feature and the Kanban-style board that helps keep everything well-organized and categorized. It's great to be able to track the progress of my production process, and the super easy-to-use scheduling tool makes my life as a publisher a breeze.
In addition, the actual production page where you create the content is full of great tools and features that I've incorporated into my overall production flow. The AI-writing assistant is great, inserting photos and other media is super intuitive, and everything just looks and feel NEAT.
For the end user, the website itself is clean. It is very similar to how clean Medium looks so that your visitors are able to consume the content you've published without a ton of distractions. Integrating Disqus into the front-end page is just as neat and seamless, making the entire end-user experience flawless and distraction-free, while encouraging them to engage with you on-page.
Personally, I give Storipress a 10/10, super easy to use. I use Wordpress also for some other publications, but I'm seriously considering migrating all of my publications over to Storipress. Storipress is MUCH easier to use, and much more intuitive than Wordpress, and it allows me to simply focus on creating great content.
