PubKeep Recensioni 

Losing Publisher after 40 years with hundreds of documents, I am delighted to find PubKeep. It opens Publisher files exactly how they were created allowing you to make changes. Creating new docs is as user friendly as Publisher. Creators are working out a few conflicts with some anti-virus software when installing. Excellent and fast customer support. Highly Recommend!

PubKeep: A Welcome Solution for Microsoft Publisher Users

When we learned that Microsoft Publisher was being discontinued, our office faced a real challenge. We had years of documents, projects, and materials created in Publisher, and we were scrambling to find a practical solution that wouldn't require starting over.

We initially explored Adobe InDesign, but its steep learning curve made it difficult for many of our office staff to transition. We needed something familiar, reliable, and easy to use.

When we discovered PubKeep, we were cautiously optimistic. It almost sounded too good to be true. However, with so much work invested in Publisher over the years, we decided it was worth trying.

We have been pleasantly surprised. PubKeep looks and feels remarkably similar to Microsoft Publisher, making the transition much less intimidating. The familiar interface and functionality have given us confidence that our staff can adapt without extensive training.

Our experience hasn't been without a few challenges. We've encountered some font issues during the conversion process, which can be frustrating when trying to preserve the original appearance of our documents. However, we recognize that PubKeep is a relatively new application, and we're hopeful these issues will be addressed as the software continues to develop.

Overall, we're grateful that PubKeep exists. It has provided a much-needed solution for an office that depends heavily on years of Publisher files. While there is room for improvement, PubKeep has made what initially seemed like an overwhelming transition feel manageable.

For organizations and offices facing the same challenges with Microsoft Publisher, PubKeep is certainly worth considering.

Highly Recommended: Over the years I've accumulated over 8,500 files built with MS Publisher. I'm also aware of many churches & non-profits who have used Publisher for regular communication. I wanted to check out this software for the sake of many communities left high and dry by the elimination of Publisher. The early version of PubKeep downloaded on 9/28/26 was adequate but left a few functions wanting. However, each update (at least daily) corrected whatever was missing, so that as far as my use is concerned, it is now a fully functional alternative to Publisher -- and the updates keep on coming.

Pubkeep is a solid fix for those of us who want access to our library of Publisher files with the certainty of knowing they’ll pull up right. And the developer seems really interested in making sure it continues to do that. The price seems very reasonable for peace of mind.

I have a number of documents that are large and somewhat complicated with graphics and all sorts of formatting. Pub keep has opened them very well in the small amounts of adjustments I need to make are minimal compared to the large value of what they've opened correctly formatted.

Works great. Excited to use something that allows me to edit my publisher files. Designed church directory in publisher. Still learning all the moves in pubkeep

I was so happy to find PubKeep! I have been using MS Publisher since the middle 90's. And now I get to keep all of my files and continue to use them with out missing a beat!
Thank you for PubKeep!

I have been using MS Publisher for years and was wondering how I was going to replace it. MS will say that MS Word and MS PowerPoint will do the same things. I have tried and you can indeed do some (haven't tried them all) of the same things. But it is not as easy as with Publisher and now with PubKeep). When I read about PubKeep I breathed a sigh of relief. Somewhat hesitantly I tried it and I was very pleasantly surprised. I opened a completed document (done in Publisher) and was able to edit it as though I were still in Publisher. Most of the commands, menus, etc. are the same. Some are in a different place, but they are easy to find. There are still improvements to be made, and the company is working on that diligently. (I think 5 updates today already.) Thank you, Adam, for this brilliant piece of work.

For decades, MS Publisher was my goto for booklets, posters, and more. I believe MS encouraged folks to use Word when they decided to stop supporting Publisher. I tried and then started looking for something - I didn't know how something was defined.

By chance, PubKeep appeared on my social media. I kept scrolling past it. Don't know why I read one of the ads more closely. I saw the free trial; the 7 days bothered me because too many times I forget about the freebie period.

Everything was exactly as advertised. The import was perfect. It also told me what fonts were missing from my computer. I think the best news: if I edit the document, the original is save as is, and I have to save it again with the PubKeep extension. Well, I was so impressed I purchased a license for both computers - one Mac & one Windows.

Thank you PubKeep.

I am loving PubKeep. I have searched for another program that would do what I used Publisher for and none of the other programs did what I needed or they have a huge learning curve. PubKeep doesn't have all the little conveniences that Publisher had, but they are still improving it daily based on user requests and release updates frequently, sometimes multiple times a day. The BEST part is that I don't need to re-create all my files in another program to edit them for re-use. PubKeep opens all my Publisher docs! I would recommend Pubkeep to everyone who has found Publisher difficult to replace.

I am a early childhood teacher who has created a lot of publisher posters, booklets. mail merges, flash cards, lables... I have found that while there is a bit of relearning, my publisher files open easily and I have been able to use & edit them effectively. I am happy that I purchased it and gladly reccommend it!

It is almost identical to Microsoft Publisher and with the updates you've already made so far, it's getting even closer. A couple things I would love to see is 1- when you have a text box or image selected, if you could 'nudge' it with the arrow keys instead of it moving it too far (if that makes sense.) 2- when resizing an object/image using the picture layout menu, it lets you change the dimension, but it would be great if you could lock the ratio so you only had to put in 1 side and it would resize it without distorting it. So far those are the only 2 things still bothering me, the other quirks i had noticed were already fixed in updates.

I'd used Publisher forever and was horrified it was being retired. Not interested in having to learn a whole new software, Pubkeep is a lifesaver. It is the real thing. It opens all my old publisher files and lets me work in them. It functions much like publisher so I didn't have to learn a new system. The admins/founder are quick to respond. It's worth every penny and then some.

Great job THANK YOU THANK THANK YOU!!!!!
Finally a program that works for actual publishing a product!

So far so good! PubKeep opens all my Publisher files and allows editing. If I come across a problem, I will let you know but for now it has brought my search for a solution to Microsoft's unexplained and unreasonable bullying to a close.

I am so glad someone created a replacement for Publisher that is very similar and is as easy to use. We had been looking and trying different recommendations, but all were much more complicated to use and functioned completely different than Publisher. I also appreciate that in the early stages updates are being made very quickly to work out any bugs

This was an easy transition and user friendly! Thanks,

The software itself has been easy to access and use right away to edit my Publisher documents.
In addition, the support I've received has been quick and explained in a clear manner.
I am so relieved to find this solution to what was going to be a dreadful change brought on by Microsoft in getting rid of a 20+ year software, unlike anything else offered.
PubKeep is the answer!

This app has promise and works better than Libre Office. The company seems responsive and have already addressed issues in the early stages. I would recommend PubKeep.

We bought it right away as insurance against Publisher stopping (we have a perpetual locally installed version, but our PCs won't last forever). We are a church using it for our worship documents, and so far it has opened every type of document we used Publisher for (weekly worship, weddings, funerals, etc.) without a problem. So we bought a 2 PC license (one for me, one for my admin) and we no longer have any anxiety about Publisher going away.
