Motivation:
While the Editor was assigned since 14 March, the paper was not sent to any reviewers since then. After waiting for 3 months and confirming the publication dates of many papers on the journal, I notice that a lot of paper took 7-9 months (some even took 1 year or more) for reviewing. While I think that the Review quality is good after reading peer review reports, I could not wait for the journal due to needing the paper to be accepted to graduate. That is why I decided to withdrawn the paper and send to another journal.

Motivation:
"The review process was too long, and the support team was very unprofessional. We emailed them multiple times to inquire about the review process, but they responded with the exact same message three times. Meanwhile, there was no progress on the paper, and the editor did nothing to help accelerate the review process despite our repeated requests.

Motivation:
The review took almost 5 months, but the suggestions and comments were perfect and detailed and helped me greatly improve my manuscript. I give it a score of 4 not 5 just because it took a long time.
