"My experience with F1000Research has been excellent. I first heard about them from our Head of School who has a vast experience with publications. He recommended F1000Research for the post peer review process which is commendable as it saves the author from the problems of traditional anonymous pre-publication peer review. Reviewers are experts in the same subject area as the paper from the global community which can be automatically generated from their website. This is great as it minimizes any potential bias towards any of the authors.
The website is user friendly which simplifies submission process. The instructions to authors are clearly set and easy to follow. F1000Research requirements is realistic and practical as it focusses more on the content and its reproducibility rather than on the formatting, and exclusive citation/referencing style. I was also amazed with how the editorial staff extensively reviewed my paper in less than a week, highlighting all necessary amendments.
F1000Research is a great platform to publish high quality work of busy researchers from different fields."
