AJR comments: We suggest you use APA edition 7 at submission. Heliyon also requires you to provide the names of experts to review your paper. The submission and tracking system does not allow direct contact with your paper’s editor, only Elsevier’s support staff. This is a big negative with this journal as reviews are now dragging into the months, with authors having no easy, direct access to your paper’s editor. Also, recently a paper went through two different review processes, with two different sets of reviewers each time. We have never seen this done before. Your submission ease or difficulty seems to be dependent on which editor you draw, with education papers a bit easier to get through their process. What is interesting in the submission process is you are allowed to enter names of individuals you do NOT want as an editor or reviewer. Our list is getting longer. Finally, if your paper is accepted it heads off to India. Here they format it for Heliyon and send you a proof with questions. Good luck with this as in the last paper we did, it took 4 email exchanges to change the faculty name of one of the authors. Also, getting the payment into their system and getting acknowledgment is painfully slow. Heliyon loves bureaucracy as does its direct competitor, Sage Open.
