It's time to move on from the PDF

Turtl wins hands down. And it’s not just PDF. It’s PPT too. These are old tech and Turtl is a much better way of doing things. It’s more engaging both to read and create. It saves costs and the analytics are invaluable.

Before, we had our website and we were using PDFs but we weren’t understanding who was engaging with what and you couldn’t get a whole lot of data out of that. This was a huge deciding factor - not only that it’s cool and visual - but the data aspect.

Turtl allowed us to present our information in a really engaging, interactive way which is much more appealing than our usual PDFs. It makes people want to read more, and therefore provide us with their data in order to do so.

When legislation changes or there's a new government announcement, we used to have to upload a live PDF onto our system, make comments on what needs to change, then send it to design for review. That would take a few days, which doesn't sound like a lot, but it's a long time for information to be wrong. Now we have Turtl, we can make those changes within hours of that announcement and feel confident that the most updated version is the only version available.

As a graphic designer and Adobe disciple I had reservations about using Turtl to replace the usual method of producing PDF’s for online use, thinking it would be too ‘design restrictive’ due to its simplicity. A few Docs later, I was converted! For over a year, it’s been my lead tool for creating fast interactive content which enables us to fully engage with our target audience.
