Publishing software survey
Microcosm is excited to announce that we're developing a publishing title management web-based software program for book publishers. The service will allow publishing houses of all sizes to manage:
- products and inventory
- royalties and authors
- accounting
- orders and ecommerce
- print runs
While we’ve been using this software in-house to great effect, we’d love to learn your thoughts. Help us create the next generation of publishing software!

Your responses will be kept confidential.

If you have any questions, please drop us an email: elly@microcosmpublishing.com
