"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"
"I get my textbooks from Vitalsource for my studies. I can always find what I need and I love how I can download my books immediately after making a payment without having to wait compare to buying a hardcopy textbook. The Vitalsource App is very easy to use and navigate on either my computer and tablet. Also, I love how I can highlight and add notes. The read aloud function is a bonus. "
"I've found e-books to have many advantages; unfortunately, printing is an issue. One of my current textbooks wants us to "write our test results on page 56 and fill out a plan" but it will not allow me to print that page. I have noticed this on other e-books, too, but not all. Frustrating. Otherwise, I would give five stars!"
"Let's me sample books! Its the best!! Thanks!"
"I always use this for classes because it’s way cheaper than the university bookstore. Never had an issue with the website:"
"Quick access to the text books online and lots of extra resources."
"I guess I actually have used VitalSource before so I just reset my password. The website is user friendly and easy to move through my textbook"
