Disappointed

I am very disappointed with this product. It was a wonderful price for a product I use all the time. However the scoring is really bad. I have had to basically tear apart the two cards once they are printed leaving rough edges that I then have to try to cut to smooth over. Will go back to the Avery which always work perfectly. Very disappointed.
I have used another brand before. I found the cards did not separate well - left rough edges and the scoring for the fold was not deep enough made folding difficult. In addition the feel of the paper was not as nice I would have liked.
We'd use this again because the final product turned out great but we think there's room for some basic improvements that would make the experience much better.

We made Christmas cards and the final product looked wonderful but getting there was frustrating. The online layout process was much more difficult in some ways than it needed be. For example fitting images into the predesigned box of the card template was very difficult because there's no cropping tool and the box size is not provided so we had to repeatedly crop images using our own software (and best guess) and then start a new upload each time to try for a good fit. Once all modifying and customizing was done it would have been very helpful if there was a print option (even with the word SAMPLE across it to protect their product from theft) to alleviate anxiety that the final product would appear as expected especially as the online image is not true scale to the finished product. The finished product we received in the mail was really beautiful and we'd do it again for that alone but I think the process could be more user friendly. Also of note the envelope ink (where our return address was printed) smears ridiculously easily; our home printer sets ink better than what they used!
I like the cards it's easy to work with them with one problem: often the card stock doesn't feed through my printer and I have to keep trying over and over again. Other times though I have no problems. This could be my printer (HP) or it could be the product. Hard to tell. However eventually I am able to make some nice greeting cards to share with others.
