I've used Atticus for two years. I have formatted several projects. I love the features and it just keeps getting better. What I appreciate most is the fast, helpful response I get when I get in a jam. Their help team rocks.

I love using Atticus! There is a small learning curve and I don't have everything learned yet, but it is not difficult to start using for formatting your book. It's a YES! from me!

I've been using Atticus for nearly five years, and it has been an outstanding tool. Its excellent customer support, frequent updates, and intuitive interface made our transition effortless—we migrated to Atticus in just minutes. Since then, we've created more than 160 books with it, and we continue to rely on it for our publishing projects. I highly recommend Atticus to anyone looking for a powerful and easy-to-use book formatting tool.

Atticus is simple to use for formatting my books. After 9 books and 2 box sets, I'm officially hooked. It now takes less than 30 minutes to format a complete 346-page book or a box set of 4 books. I use it for ebooks as well as paperbacks (PDFs). I read of indie authors struggling with general formatting issues all the time. Atticus ensures I'm never in their boat. Zero issues. Ever.

When I first started using Atticus, I'll admit that I had a bit of a learning curve to get through, but I watched the videos and learned how to get my book set up, and I haven't looked back. Four books later, I am extremely satisfied, and I just learned there are new features coming soon. Love it!

As an indie author and a small independent press that helps other authors get their manuscripts formatted for publication, I have been using Atticus for a few years. It is easy to use, comprehensive and technically complete. I never get a reject from a retailing upload. The support team is fantastic - human to boot! Every upgrade is exciting and useful. Lifetime subscription is so worth it!

I rely on Atticus.io for all my book formatting needs. The program is easy to navigate, can be adjusted depending on your needs, and has excellent living human customer service. If there is ever a glitch, it is fixed promptly. I have published over 25 books using Atticus and my customers LOVE the results! Thank you Atticus!

So far, the experience has been excellent. After spending weeks trying to format a novel with another program, I switched to Atticus. I was able to format the book in two days, which included spending time reviewing the tutorials and attending to daily life. Initially, I was frustrated because I could not find the Formatting tab. When I ran my cursor across the black bar, the tab turned up in white font. I love how the program has the option to put the Chapter page on the right. I received same day customer service when I asked how to paginate the Foreword with a Roman numeral. Thank you, Lyle. It was simple to drag the Foreword above the Body line on the left-hand navigation pane. The ultimate test remains: uploading the PDF and the EPUB to IngramSpark.
