Many of the software companies out there have a lot to learn from YUMPU. The free digital publishing platform recently launched their interactive brochure maker and I’m a massive fan.

As a specialist in the field of architecture, I was looking for ways to compile all my company’s projects together in a unique portfolio. Your projects should speak for themselves. After a long search, I became aware of online software that converts my architectural portfolio into an online magazine. And the best thing is that […]

One man’s trash is another man’s treasure. Except when it comes to online software! I had no true measure of the insane proportions of junk that can be found online until I needed to find a brochure making application and winded up trashing every single free app I downloaded or signed up to, one after the next.

A couple months ago I wrote a blog post about how difficult it is to find a free brochure generator that actually works past the point of design flaws and a major headache! I got responses from dozens of people recommending an endless number of online apps they’d found and I tried every single one to no avail.

I’ve always used free software to get everything I needed done. I never thought twice about it, until the software that came with my computer expired at the precise moment I needed it most. Talk about disaster! I needed to create a beautiful, slick brochure for my presentation, and now I was stuck.

Call me Mr. President – I just won the student council election and I wanted to write a little note to thank YUMPU for showing me how to create e-brochure for free…and for helping me win.

Believe it or not, one of the greatest challenges I face in the IT field is recommending to friends and family products that actually work. Most of the time, people want something amazing, with a glittering spectrum of features, but aren’t prepared to pay the price!

Either the interface was way too complicated, or it cost way more than I wanted to spend on a software I’d only occasionally use. I had resigned myself to just making sad little PDFs […]

Now, I’ll be the first to admit that there is no short supply of free software online specifically targeting the brochure development market. What there is a shortage of, is software that actually does the things that people need and expect it to do in order to deliver on their promises!

My co-worker and I had been using the same brochure development tool to create brochures for an office project for months. When her brochures starting receiving all the praise I couldn’t figure out what caused the shift. Then I realized she wasn’t making regular brochures using Word brochure templates at all.
