Motivation:
Both the review process and article processing were quite fast, as promoted by the journal. Despite the fast initial review time, one of the review reports was useful and gave us concrete ideas how to improve the manuscript, while the other was slightly haphazard. With the article processing fee lowered to a much more attractive $750 for 2018, I would definitely consider sending and particularly transferring papers to ACS Omega also in the future.
