What do you like best about the product?
Setka Editor has micro-templates (snippets) for our specific requests and building layout does not take much time for the designer. The editors could change the design of the particular articles without any problems and very quickly. It helps us to enhance our editors' capacity.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing special. We are delighted by cooperation with Setka.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our publication is about St Petersburg. We are passionate about this city and its residents, local lifestyle, identity, culture. In general, our magazine is committed to explaining why it is worth staying in this city. We launched it in 2012, and by now, we have more than 1 million readers. In addition to the online publication, we do native advertising, marketing, and sociological studies, and organize events for readers. We are trying to move away from the “text-photo-text” design format. Even on mobile screens where this format is justified, you can use more exciting accent elements: dividers, icons, tables. Thanks to the capabilities of Setka Editor, we began to issue extensive editorial and branded content campaigns. There are also plans for some new formats. For example, some time ago, we launched “Albums” – when we tell a story using a gallery of large images and three-dimensional descriptions. This type of presentation helps to create a narrative that needs some discreteness. Each frame shows a separate story, and together they add up to a mosaic of a united one. Our other goal is to allow users to write for our publication directly in the interface. We believe that Setka Editor can help us explain to people how to quickly and easily typeset. It was not possible when we had a basic WordPress editor. We hope that this idea works out, and we’ll get more user-generated content.

What do you like best about the product?
I like that I can edit text, arrange images without having to code anything. Setka’s modular grids and post style templates are extremely helpful and remove a lot of unnecessary friction. The automated mobile layout also saves us a lot of time. Setka’s support team was helpful with integration so we managed to move forward with using it just in a few days.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing, everything has been very user-oriented from the get-go.

Arifmetika Dobra is a non-profit organization supporting orphans and preparing them for the realities of the outside world. We bring attention to various projects, programs, state policies, and other activities. We wanted to make our blog more credible and trustworthy, to bring more attention to the lives of the orphaned children, to cover important topics, and to help people get involved. Setka Editor turned out to be a very easy-to-use tool. We can create any post with any layout we want. The fact that it doesn’t require coding and we can set up the templates for all types of content we use is just amazing. We love how easier and streamlined content production is now for our team.

Verbum is a non-profit website of the State University’s Youth Media Center. Today Verbum magazine is the only youth media outlet in the region. It is famous for creativity and non-standard solutions. Setka Editor helped us digitalize the publication, make it engaging and interactive. The tool is very user-friendly and everyone in our student editorial team is able to design a post that would be always consistent with our branded style and standards. The reading experience has considerably improved with Setka Editor, the publication attracts a young audience and makes a good impression on the more experienced readers.

Skyeng is the biggest online English school in Europe, and Skyeng Magazine is its brand media. We promote the importance of language learning and offer engaging materials to help people learn English. Skyeng is an EdTech company with a focus on customizable digital content so our magazine has to match. We employ interactive formats such as tests, and our content must look good on all devices. Setka Editor is the best tool for that. Setka allows adding visual elements such as embeds, snippets, or lists, in just one click. It saves times and allows focusing on the content.

We are an application, offering freshly cooked meals next to a customer’s house. We prepare delicious meals and deliver them for free in less than half an hour. In addition to our social media, we decided to launch a blog on WordPress to write about everything related to cooking, food, and home kitchen. We wanted all our posts to have a consistent style, to be engaging and visual. Setka Editor is the best tool for our needs.
