What do you like best? I love that you can use one of their templates, or upload a form of your own to complete! What do you dislike? I haven't been able to find any cons yet! What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? I have clients that need medical claim forms sent to insurance companies (they keep their own books). I can enter in the info and go!
