Everything has worked great and while I honestly don't know what there are companies that still use Fax, they do exist and I need to work with them. Love PDFfiller and everything it provides.

kind of difficult to understand..sometimes it would not fill out the form and sometimes it would, then go back to the first signature and had to keep confirming.

I've used PDFfiller for years. It's a great program and I recommend it to anyone that needs to edit/share/print pdf files. It helps your docs and you look very professional!

This software is great! It not only makes it easy to add text, but also has a lot of additional functionality such as the ability to create links for others to fill in information on samesaid documents, etc.

I am happy with how to fill out the health claim form template. It is user-friendly and reliable. It is a little slow to open documents and I waste some time looking for the right one. I don't like the organization system and I haven't figured out Templates. I am not looking for a practice management system so I like buying only what I need. Overall, I like the app and I paid for a year subscription.

The Best !, I did not expect this to be par excellence, It meet my expectations and even more - I will recommend, the engine, design and it covers the Business requirements and needs.

IT'S BETTER THAN DOCUSIGN
I like that you can send to other to sign just like docusign. You can also fill in the blanks. You can share the info and even print. Also is not too pricey.
What I don't like is, when I send to multiple signers anyone can sign even on my signature. I wish they'd allow set signatures per person so that folks won't get confused .

customer support
I had cancelled my subscription but it had not gone through and was charged. I explained this to the customer support team and they helped me very nicely and gave me a refund. It was efficient and very understanding!

PDFFILLER IS THE BEST OF THE BEST...SEE FOR YOURSELF
pdfiller is the best online form finder and provider. I have always had difficulty with filling out a form on line, whether that be saving or having the fields stay filled out if I did not complete the form at that time. This is never a problem nor is finding any form I already did or was in the process of doing. I am still in the trial timeline which is clearly displayed as to how many more days I have left in the trial. These nuances are so beneficial and not at all typical, they provide a much higher quality to the service and there is nothing I can't find or is provided that I could need later that is not right at my fingertip or click of the mouse. I am thrilled to have found this and reccommend everyone who has a need to fill out forms or find them. Easy to use, downloads perfect and so user friendly. I cannot stop saying how great this is and I hope you take the time to try if for yourself. It is an invaluable source for those forms and documents you may need. Thanks pdfFiller your the best.,
