"I’m in grad school I use vital source for my books in every class. "
"Great experience. I am very happy vitalnsource "
"Easy to purchase, use, and no issues"
"I got a valued reference book for a fraction of what Amazon wanted. Another positive is it is digital so it doesn't take self or box space. "
"You cqn see your textbooks, zoom in, zoom in, zoom out, have them read to you by a very robotic sounding voice but it's good that I can even have them read to me in the first place so that I can listen even when I washing the car or something. (though this might not be such a good idea for things like programming or mathematics).
Perhaps I am not using them to their full capabilities but the flashcards could use a touch up. It would be nice to have stats, and have spaced repetition but I am used to ankidroid so that might be why the notes feature does not satisfy me too much.
Overall though, good app. "
"Love this site and its amazing bookshelf. I get to read and listen to my books at a comfortable speed. Great prices and titles. I will buy more
If God gives me the opportunity. Dr. Tony Evans books are the best."
"I unintentionally purchase a book I didn't need. And when I submitted an email to your customer service team, Ingrid R, promptly guided me through the process and resolved the issue. Thank you Vital Source for your outstanding professionalism and great customer service!

"I usually use the Kindle app or Chegg for my textbooks but I have grown to love VitalSource. This is the second time I have purchased a book from them in the last year. I like the ease of the app and the only view of the book. My recent book has the "CoachMe" feature, which is nice because it promotes some practice questions as I read. I would recommend this company, and you will not regret it!"
"Having online books with vital source is sooo convenient. In a few clicks I can have my text book at the tip of my fingers. I have choose to download them to my iPad and my phone, because I never know when I may have a few minutes to read or listen to the text. If you’re on the fence about utilizing e-books, Just take the leap you will not regret it."
"VitalSource saved money by providing access to a hardcover book that is now expensive and difficult to obtain. However, page numbers did not appear onscreen in VitalSource, so I could not construct a citation. VitalSource Support simply told me that the publisher chose not to provide page numbers. However, I figured out how to get them! In the Search box at top right of the page, type in the term you’re looking for. The number of the page where the term appears will be displayed in a column at right of your screen.

"Finding and purchasing books was easy to do. I like the less expensive "rent" option. Books are easy to navigate with search and highlight features."
"Easy to navigate and use both on desktop and Android platforms. Great place to store textbooks for uni research and subjects."
"General advice: I wish there were audio books of textbooks too instead of the text to speech. Text to speech is a great start! But an audiobook like recording would be even better - especially for math textbooks where the text to speech does not say the formulas or equations correctly.
"Compute Networks: A Systems Approach" by Peterson and Davie: I wish there were tabs for the sub sections. e.g 5.3 has sub sections 5.3.1 and 5.3.2 but on the left nav bar (on iOS) there is only a section for 5.3. I wish this textbooks nav bar were more like "Computer Networking: a Top Down Approach" by Kurose & Ross."
"Awesome has every book I have needed so far and digital. Prices can be a little cheaper please especially for rentals. Thanks "
"Without VitalSource Technologies, I would be screwed for my communications course. I was late ordering my textbook, and, as a result, it would not arrive in time for me to complete my first assignment.
Easy to navigate. Less stressful for me. Win Win, as far as I can see. Thank you"
