| Compare | Pressbooks | Page not found |
|---|---|---|
| Verdict | Depends | Depends |
| Best for | Educators publishing open textbooks (OER) | Guess: university presses and OER programs |
| Who it's not for | Solo fiction authors who only need fast EPUB/print formatting | Buyers who need a working, verifiable product page first |
| Privacy | One medium stored-XSS CVE from 2021; active patch releases since (including a WordPress 7 support + security fix release).⁹ | No security evidence found . the product's own security page returned 'Page not found.'11 |
| Support quality | No usable evidence in sources | No evidence . page 404'd. |
| Public sentiment | Self-publishers and academics describe Pressbooks as easy to use and a favorite for OER, but public review volume is tiny.⁵ | No user reviews of this product were found; all review evidence was unrelated 404-error content from other sites. |
