What do you like best? I use it everyday for certificates of insurance, the program is very user friendly. What do you dislike? I have tried to save the link on my computer but it never saves. I always have to google acord PDF filler. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? It saves all my COI so I just need to change the date and certificate holder.

That I can mark up any pdf or create 1 new document from several.
What do you like best? That I can mark up any pdf or create 1 new document from several. Also digital signatures, I work remotely and need this! Being remote, I need to be able to create or sign a form from anywhere and I can easily with pdf filler. I love the share feature as well, I can work on my end and my co-workers will have it almost instantly without having to print, scan and email. I work remotely, almost all from my laptop with no printer. This allows me to work from my phone or tablet seamlessly as well. What do you dislike? Not much, no complaints yet. Maybe the layout? Like where everything is, I click on the documents and then you have to specify where something is. Maybe a more organized folder system? When I share them, they should all be in the share folder, but for some reason, they're not always there. I am a very organized person and like everything in its own folder or file. I'd like a way to save everything to its own file and be able to find them quickly and easily. Recommendations to others considering the product: This is a great program, especially if you work remotely, highly recommend it! What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? 1099 tax reports, our software only supports e-file and we are so small that we don't have that. I also love the share part, I'm able to work on my end, share it with my co-workers and they can have it almost instantly without printing and scanning, etc. I also love that I can take a few different documents and combine them to one, that is a great feature!

OMG!
What do you like best? OMG! I can’t said enough about it. I have use it so many times, why to overpaid for Adobe acrobat or similar when you can have this? I recommend it to everyone who needs to edit, rearrange and send PDFs. What do you dislike? I don’t really dislike anything, maybe I would like the notarize option to let you do multiple signatures/ persons in the same document. Recommendations to others considering the product: Try the free trial you would love it. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? Productivity All in one, I love that you can also signed and Edit all in one. Is very easy to use
