Perlego
I study technical topics, and with just one subscription, I have access to all the books without having to buy them one by one like I used to. I find this service amazing.
My experience was very satisfying and commfortable with the Perlego system.…
My experience was very satisfying and pleasant in Perlego. So, I had one problem: When I want to locate a book it is sometimes impossible for me. Whereasm if I Google it on behalf of Perlego, it gets a reference to some books available in Perlego. This facility cannot exist directly in Perlego?

Great academic book app
This is the first academic app/site I have come across which also offers some features needed by those with dyslexia. I have yet to search for a book that this sight doesn’t have (within the field of education, sociology, and philosophy). And this is rare!
Some of the features could be better developed to be more adaptable and useful for those who need both academic books and reading support, however, the foundation is amazing! It’s been two years of searching to find this good of a site!

i have become addicted to Perlego
i have become addicted to Perlego. it is the app for those who read a lot at a low price. my life would be worse without Perlego
Perlego looks fine
I like Perlego. I wish they could have a smaller subscription than 12 euros a month, or some fully free platform. I really like this because at least, especially since I am in university, I can access a lot of bibliography that is vital for my research without having to pay 50 euros a book.
LOTS of books (academic and self-help) & great support
They have some book options. It is easy to read and also be read to if you are on the go. You can organize your books into "bookselves", so you can keep track of what different books are within a single topic you may be researching. The support team is also very response and helpful!
Great access and nice user experience
The possibility to access a full library right in my mobile app.
Plataforma is easy to use.
love this online library
love this online library, loads text books and supportive tools which makes studying so much easier, with good customer services too: I needed a more flexible payment option, requested to change my annual subscription to a monthly plan, all sorted really quickly no fuss.

Perlego is a fantastic resource for text books and I relied upon them heavily for my MA research. They are such a good source that after my school subscription was over, I bought my own subscription. Highly, highly recommended.

This is a very good list of reading recommendations for reference in research studies and skills enhancement. The books are insightful especially those who are from the 80's era which are still available for reading.

Great app
Great app, excellent features such as highlighting and taking notes, the multiplatform aspect allows me to read even 5 minutes whenever I have the time on my smartphone and then resume work on my computer later. The possibility to have page numbers, for me, sets it apart from most ebook apps.
It allows for a fast and efficient reading experience.

Perlego is an easy app to navigate
Perlego is an easy app to navigate. I love the fact that almost all local TVET books are available on it. Since discovering Perlego I have very little study worries as I have access to a variety of the same kind of book. I love it.
Wonderful product
Wonderful product, insanely helpful and the price is amazing!
The read aloud feature is also amazing!!
This is like Kindle but for textbooks
This is like Kindle but for textbooks. I can pull material from many different publishers and authors. It seems like they have a kagillion (not sure what that amount is but it is a lot!) of subjects. Well worth the money for what I am getting.
Perlego is a reader's dream
Perlego is a reader's dream, with a rich set of resources and a generous way of engaging with them. I love the "read to me" feature, which has a very natural sounding voice, as it can allow me to enjoy even obscure academic titles while I'm on the go. There are all kinds of ways you can organize your reading lists, and there's no fussiness with the service no matter the platform you choose to use. The book you want to read opens quickly and all the features are intuitive and responsive. And customer service is super friendly, personal, and respond to questions quickly.
