Versatile tool to improve Professionalism
Comments: Overall it is a user-friendly application in documentation. It helps me a lot in creating my documents in my day to day work.
Pros:
This is a user-friendly application compared to other apps considering document management where I can save progress ( on PC or cloud) and continue later. Files can be stored and saved in a variety of formats as per the company's requirements. Multiple people working on the same project can easily edit the document by giving permission to access it. Document search is also accurate. Searching for texts makes easier since it can find even if the text is misspelled.

It does not support the latest features. Some Features can be added compared with other desktop publishing software referring to typography.

Long time user
Comments: As a long time user, Publisher has allowed me to create, store, retrieve documents that can be reused and saves me time in preparation of new materials
Pros:
Allows me to create and publish flyers and promotional items quickly
Cons:
Not always compatible with other programs
Great for beginners and making basic advertising materials
Comments: Positive. Does what I need it to and does it well without being too complex.
Pros:
How simple and accessible it is. If you have experience using other Microsoft Products such as Word and PowerPoint, it's very easy to pick up and use as the layout and core features are similar. However, this has templates for posters, leaflets etc and is much better for those. When make information heavy leaflets, there's usually a template to fit your aesthetic and content type and it's just a matter of filling in your copy and selecting aesthetic options.
Cons:
It's ultimately quite limited on what you can achieve using it. You have les precision and control compared to products such as Adobe InDesign, but then this is more of the final stage where you'd assemble designs taken from other apps. At the price-point and accessibility however, it's not really a complaint, but something to be aware of.
