"My experience publishing the review article "Regulation of NKG2D-Dependent NK Cell Functions: The Yin and the Yang of Receptor Endocytosis" in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences was very positive. The reviewing time was short, the publication process was rapid and the editorial assistance was professional. For these reasons, I was glad to accept the invitation to provide an additional contribution for the special issue "Ubiquitin System", and I have recommended to my collegues to take IJMS in great consideration for publishing their work. I hope that the impact factor of this journal will further increase in the future."

"I am impressed that the IJMS appears willing to publish considered opinions without undue deference to mainline dogma or established power structures within the biological science research community. This is rare and welcome. Although I found the MDPI template and an aspect of the online submission system for revised manuscripts quite obtuse and difficult to use, the staff of the editorial office were exceptional in their helpfulness. At every stage the process was fast, efficient and professional."

"I have published recently in IJMS, and the time span between submission and online publication was one of the shortest I have encountered during my career. Not only the editing process was very fast and efficient with immediate response and action by the editorial office at each stage, but also the peer-review process was extremely rapid, and high-quality nevertheless. While I am generally hesitating to submit work to open access journals because of the fees, I start to feel that, at least with IJMS, the service provided to the authors and the scientific community is worth its money."

"The process was extraordinarily fast in my case (which normally should of course be a good thing - but in my case, this was in fact all too fast, as I found it very hard to find the time to send back revisions and proofs in the time expected - especially at the special time of the year this happened. More breathing space for authors would be appreciated—at least by me. Our job is stressful enough without journals putting us under more pressure as well. Having said this, I have had similar experiences with other journals as well). Other than that, the process was smooth and straightforward, and everything was dealt with competently."

All aspects of the process were faster and more efficient than we've experienced with some other journals. In particular the Editorial assistance was outstanding - quick response to email, and all questions clearly and thoroughly answered in a friendly manner. Reviews were fair and thorough and helped us to improve our final paper. We look forward to submitting articles in the future to IJMS."
