The features didn't work as expected

The features didn't work as expected. The online reader is nice though.I submitted a support ticket and provided proof in a video, and so on of what was broken.I haven't heard back about if it's fixed yet, but they did give me a voucher so I could access the book I was trying to use.

good but could do better

1. Good content (ebook/pbook/code-download), although processing errata/feedback sometimes patchy.2. Most titles have code-download repos on GH PacktPublishing3. Packt reviews based on feefo.com, but seem to be too few for statistic significance [maybe now using trustpilot?], whereas Amazon (who sell their pbooks) reviews give better judgement.4. packtpub.knoji.com records Packt overall score at 3.8 out of 5 (sounds low)5. the daily free-learning titles are at least 5 years old so often seriously outdated6. [accidentally] browsing to old release does not always alert reader to existence of later version7. suggest that Packt should make all superceded titles open-published (i.e. free to view/download)8. [unlike Pluralsight/etc] Packt has no offline app

DON'T GET IT...Frequent collapse of the site

DON'T GET IT. It is a terrible service; it has good content but frequently you are not able to access it due to it frequents collapse, like the page is saturated, especially at afternoons/evenings. I am currently on a dispute about the subscription access, and even when I have cancelled the subscription. Seeing the issues express on the reviews, I better contact my bank. It is incredible that being a tech resources site, the site infrastructure is so bad. PLEASE get something else it better for your mental energyThey gave me a caseID: CA2359790

Feedback

Hey, I'm not giving full stars despite that I love this publishing. The reason is obvious, the website and the app can always get better, and they have a long way to become really good. Considering that the book qualities are moderately high or very high, it's not surprising to see that the main focus of this publishing was on the books so far. But I think you need a moment to think of how you could make both platforms better so that users get the most out of the books. There are a few problems with sessions which don't last long when logged in with multiple devices, sessions will also end early when not active for a few days. The app doesn't have all the features of the website. So in overall, I would say I could still get a lot more from you. Cheers, Brian.
