Very usable It was easy to get started and the options were not too hard to locate erasing is only left and right, the replace text field is not easy to use and it could be easier to just email a copy of a doc

Great for .pdf that You Need to Edit-PDFfiller is the way to Go! Great for doing 1099s at tax time! Wonderful for use with prefab downloadable boilerplate documents that you purchase from the web. Great storage for being able to go back in and repurpose a saved document for an additional use. Print alignment not always spot on for forms, such as 1099s and you have to play with settings a bit, but overall not too cumbersome.

This software has solved many problems for a few clients, well done. Being able to host the forms online for anyone to fill out, which is something that I couldn't find with any other software. No way to remove the flow of fields, you are just able to move the order around, which is very annoying as well.

Would be better if you didn't have to input personal card information for a one time use on a free item. Other than that, good experience because it was easy to navigate.
