This journal is a huge disappointment. After one year of review, they gave a garbage reason for rejection.

Submission: 2020.04.15
The journal sent a reminder letter once, but received no response.

Review submission: 2020.07.06
Rejection: 2021.04.09

During the review period, they sent four reminder letters and two withdrawal letters, but received no response. There has been no communication whatsoever.

The rejection reason given was that the paper lacked innovation and commercial value. Both my boss and I believe that the editor-in-chief just made up excuses. If they had rejected it after a few months, it would have been fine. But after one year of review without any specific feedback, it was a great disappointment. We have decided in our laboratory that no one should submit to this journal anymore.

I submitted my article in March last year, and it was not until May this year that I received the suggested revisions. It was extremely slow, usually taking 3 months for a submission to be under review. However, even after more than 10 months, it is still in the same status. They do not respond to emails requesting withdrawal of the submission, and they never reply to emails. Of course, they did respond to the email sent to the help center. Maybe I am just unlucky. It is incredibly slow. I wish everyone good luck!

Added, hired. The total time taken was 2.5 months, and the overall speed was acceptable, except for a slight delay in the second review.

The first trial lasted for one month and three days, and three days after the second trial, Required Reviews Completed. I have been waiting for 3 weeks, but no one responded to my email. This is really speechless.

2021.2.13 Submitted to journal
2021.2.19 Sent email to manager to assign my editor (When I submitted, I forgot to select an editor. Since there was no change in status for a long time, I proactively emailed to request the assignment of an editor. It was during the Chinese New Year, so I was unsure if the delay was due to the holiday.)
2021.2.20 Assigned to editor (I received an email reply stating that an editor has been assigned to me.)
2021.2.21 Under Review
2021.3.07 Revise
2021.3.21 Revision submitted to journal
2021.3.21 Under review
2021.3.28 Required reviews completed
2021.3.29 Accepted

This journal is very fast and efficient. It took 46 days from submission to acceptance, and the reviewers were also very professional. I don't think it is as bad as mentioned by others. The journal has a high impact factor of 5.3. I hope the journal continues to improve and achieves an impact factor of over 10. I will consider submitting to this journal again in the future.

Submitted on March 17th, and until now it still hasn't reached the hands of the editor. I regret not reading the comments further down, it's really slow. Submission should be done carefully!!!
