Unsolicited User Comment
"We work with editors in the U.S. and Germany. During implementation, we needed strong customer support from
Aries on both sides of the ocean. That has worked splendidly. The comprehensive support provided by the German
Aries office in Langenfeld has been very important as we introduced the system."
Michael Himmelstoß
Publishing Manager
Carl Hanser Publishing Munich
"We are really grateful for the help that Aries was able to offer.
We don't have a dedicated IT staff, so this kind of assistance is of special value for us.
Thank you for the excellent follow-through."
Mady Tissenbaum
General Manager, The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery
"We chose Editorial Manager because it is a worldwide market leader, and we wanted a manuscript submission and editorial office system that has been proven to work well. The fact that the system has been broadly used by other publishing houses gave us confidence that some of our authors and editors would already have experience with Editorial Manager, and that training would be easy for those who did not."
Wolfgang Böttner
Section Manager, Medicine & Sciences
Walter de Gruyter
"You guys really provide us with good service and you don't know how much I appreciate it!"

"I just wanted to say that EM is an excellent system and from the
many positive comments we have received, that it is by far
superior to other systems being used. If
we continue to get submissions at our current rate, by the
end of the year, we will double our submission rate from
previous years."
Betty Schiefelbein,
Managing Editor

"Editorial Manager 4.0 represents one of the most comprehensive updates to the system since its inception. These changes include a host of refinements and new additions. As a whole, 4.0 is a welcome upgrade and the majority of enhancements will enrich the EM experience."
David M. Allen
Publications Specialist
Journal of Bone and Mineral Research
"I have just used EM for the first time. It was an excellent experience
and really facilitated the review process."
David Middleton
Reviewer for British Journal of Social Psychology
"EM is essential. I cannot imagine functioning without it. Customer service is extraordinary; well above that of any other organization."
Donna Stroud
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology
"Largely as a result of the success of Editorial Manager, we have significantly decreased the average number of days from
manuscript receipt to publication. Most authors and reviewers have become comfortable with EM and, in fact, many like it better than other systems they come across."
Deanna Gunderson,
Managing Editor
American Journal of Kidney Disease
"At any given time our journal has between 80 and 90 live manuscripts, and I seem to be able to handle everything working 12 to 16 hours per week largely because EM does so much for me."
"Editorial Manager offers the right mix of software functionality and configurability. We particularly like the flexibility of the reporting system which will enable us to monitor and track the journals in a detailed and systematic way."
Julie Neason
Journals Manager, British Psychological Society
"We've been impressed with the pace and reliability of innovation delivered by the Editorial Manager development team."
Harry Verwayen, Business Development Manager Kluwer Academic Publishers
"We plan to apply the
'Proposals and Invited Papers' feature both to invited
editorials and letters to the editor and their replies. This new feature represents just
one of many examples of Aries' responsiveness to editorial office
requests."
Pamela Fried
Managing Editor
The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery
"We have been using it for about 15 months now and really like it. The editor of the journal recently moved to Virginia, but
with EM we are able to keep the journal office in Texas without any change to the way we handle manuscripts. Our authors, referees and
publisher have all praised the web-based system."
Sarah Pierce-Rubio
Aviation, Space, and Environmental Medicine
"I have completed all the reviewer invitations
for the current manuscripts, and I just love this system! I had absolutely
no problems, everything worked great, and I kept catching on more
and more as I used the system. Wow, this all makes my life
so easy! It is terrific!"
Peggy Chin
Editor
Advances in Nursing Science
"Our international authors are especially excited about Editorial Manager. We've surveyed
authors and reviewers and gotten a very positive response
to the system overall."
Nancy Medina, Director Annals of Emergency Medicine
"Operating a Journal Office without Editorial Manager would be like baking bread without
yeast. I just do not know how you would get anywhere without it!"
Jackie Lynch
Senior Editorial Coordinator
The Laryngoscope
"I have just tried the online review process and I congratulate you and the journal for an excellent system! In fact, this is the best I have encountered. I like the related articles feature and the fact that we can add special characters which many journals do not offer."
Unsolicited Section Editor Comment
"Part of the reason I like doing reviews for Annals so much is the excellent staff, and the ridiculously friendly web-based review system."

Aries has a solid track record of successful software development, and their Editorial Manager system has proven to be a superior online manuscript submission and tracking solution."
Patti Ward, Manager of Editorial Solutions Lippincott Williams and Wilkins
"EM has definitely made my life easier! You anticipate features I'd like to see, such as reference checking and linking with eXtyles, sometimes before I even think of them. Thank you."
Sue Shock

"The system
has helped cut late reviews to just 16-17%. Contributors get a 'yes' or 'no' much
more quickly -- the average time has dropped from 52 business
days to 25."
Adrienne Lea, Director of Publications Journal of Bone and Mineral Research
"We're really enjoying the 3.0 EM upgrade. The staff who work on the journals we upgraded to 3.0 have been singing the praises of .zip file uploads for the last week!"
