What do you like best?
As a Realtor, my whole business is based on electronic documentation. PDF filler is kind of named poorly, because it really is a PDF editor. It allows you to easily change almost anything on a pdf document...across both desktop and mobile platforms. It simply works as you'd expect it to...every time. I use it practically every day.
What do you dislike?
I wish there were better tools for generating lines (how about a toggle into and out of orthagonal for a line?) It should allow deeper zooming with a thumbnail view showing where you are in the overall document. I like my pdfs to look perfect and sometimes these limit me in that goal.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
A Realtor literally lives or dies on his/her electronic documentation. This tool lets me master the changes that inevitably occur with documents. I use it every day.

Excellent, easy to use and saves a lot of time It has saved me time mainly and a lot of hassles in getting physical signatures. I have signed and shared documents within minutes rather than signing/scanning or mailing. If you want to save time and get your documents signed ASAP, PDFfiller is a must have software. You can use it anywhere as long as you're online and you can edit it too without any hassles. It's very affordable.
