Easypress is a leading global provider of cloud-based digital publishing solutions. Established in 2005 and based in Guildford, UK, we are passionate about revolutionising digital book publishing. Our print and digital publishing solutions streamline workflows for some of the world's largest book publishers, corporate communications teams, and magazine publishers.
We support a wide range of clients, from major trade, non-fiction, Christian, and academic publishers to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and self-publishing authors. Whether managing a few titles or processing thousands per year, our scalable and agile platform makes publishing easier, faster, and more cost-effective—accessible anytime, anywhere.
In recent years, the global pandemic has reshaped book publishing in ways that surpass the changes of the previous decade. The disruption to traditional publishing workflows – forcing publishers and their staff to work remotely – has led to tough decisions regarding costs, efficiency, and the challenge of maintaining or even expanding front lists.
While the initial concerns in early 2020 about declining revenues were valid, most publishers in the UK and North America have since rebounded strongly. Some imprints are now struggling to keep up with demand, increasing their title output, while short-run print editions face mounting pressure, with print-on-demand (POD) and digital-first releases emerging as preferred alternatives. Additionally, some major customers have shifted their focus toward digital publishing, driving a renewed surge in eBook production.
The widespread adoption of remote work has also pushed editorial and publishing teams to embrace productivity tools that facilitate seamless collaboration from home. As a result, the publishing industry continues to evolve, adapting to new technologies and workflows – changes that will have a lasting impact for years to come.
Although print remains a vital part of the industry, digital content consumption across books, magazines, newspapers, and journals continues to grow. Publishers must navigate an increasingly digital landscape, and we provide the latest scalable and flexible publishing technology solutions to help them overcome today’s challenges. Multi-channel publishing has never been simpler.
