Comments

· Overall quality rating: 5 / 5 · Recommendation: 5 / 5
Overall, our experience with this journal was very positive. All three reviews were very helpful and we received a lot of great advice on how to improve our manuskript. In addition, the correspondence with editors was extremely friendly and positive.

· Overall quality rating: 5 / 5 · Recommendation: 5 / 5
All in all (and in retrospect) I found this process - although long lasting and somewhat exhausting - very rewarding. The manuscript improved significantly and I learned a lot from the reviewers!
