Motivation:
Simply write: "I am afraid that the decision has been not to publish it in Electronics Letters." without reviewing it.
Motivation:
Comments from the editor is that the research topic is interesting but the research objectives of the papers need to be redeveloped. The editor advises to redevelop and resubmit the paper. We are given 6-12 months to resubmit
Motivation:
The submission was to a special issue. The guest editor commented that they have received a lot of submissions, and they can only choose the few best papers.
Motivation:
The paper was sent out to 3 external reviewers, 1 of the reviewers gave very long and detailed comments of around 15 pages. Though that particular reviewer is not familiar with my adopted methodology, but overall the reviewers are doing good jobs and try to provide feedback on how to improve my paper. Though rejected, the EIC recommend to address to the comments and resubmit
Motivation:
Good peer review and easy handling and communication by the editors. Quick publication after the point of acceptance. Seemed to take a long time before the first round of peer review was received.
Motivation:
Submitted to the 'Social Epidemiology' section of the journal. Fast response was appreciated as they did not waste much of my time.
Motivation:
The review process took quite long.

The reason given - Out of Scope. Despite 1/3 of the citations are from that journal.
The EIC is not interested and do not care to provide valid reasons.

Motivation:
Rather fast & useful suggestions by the reviewers, convenient interactive review forum
Motivation:
Two months for a desk reject without any reason stated I find completely unacceptable for a public health journal.
Motivation:
Quality of the reviews was really mixed, journal was bizarrely fixated on following their formatting guidelines.
Motivation:
The only problem is they do not update you on the status of your manuscript for the moment you submit it, it just stayed at "under consideration", which made us feel that it was still under editorial review. Being a prestigious journal, we thought it needed more time for the editor to make the decision to send it out to reviewers, for all that we know after close to 3 weeks, we received the reviewers' comment, then did we realize it has passed editorial review. Overall, they are very fast for my case, 3 weeks for the first review, was given 10 days to complete the first revision and the second revision came in 14 days time. After that, the editor mentioned that it was just a minor revision and if we addressed it, he will give us a final decision as soon as possible. Almost immediately when after submitting our minor revision, the editor came back within one working day to accept our paper for post-production. Kudos!
Motivation:
We were offered a transfer option to a suitable journal, but it took over a week for a desk rejection, which is a pretty long time in my experience.
Motivation:
Two months for a desk reject without any comment on the manuscript I find completely unacceptable.
Motivation:
Fast review process if you revise the manuscript according to reviewer reports. The only problem is the delay of the manuscript in going for a review. submitted 03 April 2019; accepted 01 August 2019,
Motivation:
I received a swift and polite email containing a rejection pointing to the large volume of submissions to the journal. The editor also made a suggestion for an alternative jounal that might be a better fit.
