See for yourself by reading reviews on the most popular resources:
I needed on copy of a form, that is all and I was charged 120.00, that is an expensive copy. I have cancelled your service and would appreciate a full refund. Charge me for one copy fine, but not 120.00. Thank you

What do you like best?
I like the idea that I can edit a PDF document that is not machine fillable. I have been using this program for several years now in personal and not for profit business.
What do you dislike?
This is not the most user friendly program to use. It lacks a search field or help section to answer questions as how to do something I do not know how to do. It would be nice to be able to save a document as you are finishing instead of having to go back and rename a document. This is the case when I am using a master form that gets updated each month. I work on my laptop and the print screen has the print button to low. I see a sliver of the print button, that if I mess around with it for a while, I can eventually click on it. I can't be the only person with this problem. It would be helpful if the print screen could open a little higher on the screen, reduce some of the preface before the print button or have the print button on the top of the form. I also get frustrated with getting an actual signature in the system. There are no clear instructions on how to do that. It took me hours and hours to get my signature as part of the program. It would be nice to be able to scan a signature into the program. I have used Adobe DC with work in the past and I find it is a superior product, but not worth the cost with the volume of paperwork I need to do. Also a typical example of issues I have with PDFiller is the instruction to take a screen shot of my log in page. I have no idea of how to do that so I attached a PDF master document I use pdfiller to complete each month.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't expect to see the most beautiful documents as far as how things line up, but it is certainly a way to complete PDF forms typed instead of hand written,
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
As I stated above I use PDF filler with forms that are not fillable. I have used them to complete tax returns when a fillable form is not available. I have used them to sign a document instead of having to print, sign and rescan the document before sending it back to the originator. I have not used it to obtain other peoples signature

Needed a pdf file filled in online Needed a pdf file filled in online, that in and of itself was not the issue. The issue was not being able to recreate the form in that most environments you would need to build the form from scratch. PDFfiller allowed me to upload the form and use their platform to publish it to the public. May I add how quick and easy it was. Saved a ton of time which I don't have.

Great Product! There are many companies that can only access documents in .pdf format so we can edit the documents and send them efficiently using PDFfiller. It takes a while to learn to edit documents properly.

Great customer service support Great customer service support. They have always been responsive on a timely manner when I need help. I use them to submit 1099 forms to the IRS. They even developed a 'fix' to their form so that I could submit a form for an employee that lives out of the country.

I REALLY enjoy. How simple this app. can make a task such as " creating a legal document ". (Which, at first can sound super intimidating ".) become. Easy to use, Step by step explanation's & examples. I love the FREE 3o day upgrade trial. I've tried to think, of anything I would do differently... & I honestly can't come up with a thing!, NICE WORK!!

The reason it is a four instead of a five... The reason it is a four instead of a five is I feel like there is a strong learning curve... at least for me. So I am still learning. Check back with me in a month and let's see if we can delete this 4 rating and move it up to a 5!!

What do you like best? Not much not to like. Spell checker would be nice. though. What do you dislike? After creating a document and saving it, it landed back in the template folder. Have to switch over to documents to access What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you? Editing PDF DOCs. Ability to search works great.
