鈥淚t is a good service to both authors and editors. Now a days everyone is loaded with information about a lot of journals. Deciding a suitable journal is a difficult task. When the transfer process suggests a list of journals, I am sure a lot of factors are considered for arriving at the list. Earlier, I had another paper transferred through the transfer desk and it was successful. I appreciate the thought process which lead to this transfer process. I am thankful to the Editors and executives who contribute to this transfer process and help many clueless authors like me.鈥  鈥 Engineering author

鈥淭his was a wonderful process for me, and the person assisting me was fantastic! My likelihood of using this service again relates in part to whether my paper is accepted at the new journal (which is a great journal, but not one I had considered previously)."  鈥 Clinical and Health Sciences
