Very pleased so far

PublishDrive offers a straightforward and clean interface for distributing print, ebook and audiobook files through multiple sales channels.

I am very pleased with the service so far.

I could easily upload five ebook titles very quickly and select 17 new outlets for sale.

Pro:
- Clean interface with one page to enter all the files, keywords, descriptions, and sales channels. No need to "save and continue" through multiple pages. It is all in one place.

- Choose the sales channels you want to distribute to with one click. If you already sell a title on KDP or iBooks, no problem. Just disable them and enjoy the other outlets.

- PublishDrive can become your 'sales agent' for Google Play Books. Relatively simple permissions process with this as well.

- The Abacus royalty splitting feature, while not included in the AppSumo LTD, could be very convenient in the future and is managed from the same, easily navigable dashboard.

Con:
- When selecting categories (a few times) I had to 'save and exit', go back to the dashboard and refresh before going back in to make my category selections. After scrolling for a while, the drop down menus stopped populating. (Not a big deal, yet slightly inconvenient)

- Need to separately procure ISBNs for print books. I'm spoiled by the free ISBNs in KDP and will likely only use PublishDrive for ebooks and audiobooks so long as this is the case.

- 96 maximum titles will fill up quickly with each format being counted separately. I'd like to see the AppSumo plans maximums increased.

Overall, I am happy with the purchase and foresee publishing all my digital books first through PublishDrive. This way I can focus on content creation and delegate distribution to the specialists.
