Content Experiences
PathFactory neglects readers’ experience in its solution for disjointed buying journeys.

Sure, nostalgia is nice, but PathFactory transports readers back to the PDF viewer days. The monotonous experience has them losing interest, and eventually dropping off — and, well, can you blame them? Whereas Paperflite’s content viewers are specially designed to draw readers in and encourage them to consume more. You can showcase different kinds of content the way you want — with multiple viewers to choose from.
