    Edited 2020-08-29

    Pros: Microsoft Publisher is a great piece of software which allows one to publish enterprise standard newsletters, brochures and booklets. It has the familiar ribbon interface and is quite simple to use after a while. It can be used to draft simple as well as complex layouts and can export them in a number of formats.

    Cons: The only limitation is that it is available on Windows desktop only, no way to access it from web or mobile.

    Overall: Microsoft Publisher is a publishing software available with Microsoft 365 subscription. It is quite easy to use and efficient at publishing documents in any design or layout for professional use.
