What our customers say about pdfFiller
See for yourself by reading reviews on the most popular resources:
Great!! Saves me lots of time where I would have to find the form print it out and then type the information. The only thing that is a problem is the instructions within the form itself. I feel the instructions throughout the form should not be on the printout itself.

Its good, except that it saves the document automatically without allowing a Save as function when printing, so it overwrites the previous file, which is not so good.

What do you like best?
It offered me a complete fillable PDF forms using data from spreadsheets in a matter of minutes. It Kept all of my completed forms secure and organized in one folder and I could easily access them anytime from its desktop software or its mobile application. PDFfiller’s add-on for Google Spreadsheets spared me tons of time I would use filling out multiple forms with data from my Google Sheets by hand. PDFfiller instead allowed me to automate the entire process by quickly merging data collected from the spreadsheet’s cells with fillable fields in the forms. It also helped me to easily share completed forms with my teammates and colleagues directly from it instead of having to download and share on various platforms separately.
What do you dislike?
It's a bit slow and too many requirements to return to the dashboard to make a new order or start over. It's a little difficult to use and I didn't really find the editor interference convenient at all. Also if you're using it online you should have a medium to fast internet connection as it works terribly with slow connections and lags a lot.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It helps you export spreadsheets into PDFs in secs and saves you all the effort and time you'd have to go through if you tried to do it manually. I totally recommend it.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
I personally use a lot and to solve many issues I go through with spreadsheets. I deal and work with spreadsheets very often be it for registration of events we organize in ASCE student chapter or for our technical work in construction filling in dimensions, quantities and/or areas. I would always face this problem when I have to export the spreadsheet in a PDF format as every time the pdf file ends up being incomplete and I lose a lot of my spreadsheet data because the spreadsheet has no size restriction as in PDF; Landscape A3 or Letter A4 sizes and even if it put all of the spreadsheet content in the PDF, the font size is becomes very small and unreadable. So I used this software ad ever since It became really super easy to export sheets into PDFs without losing any data and only with a few clicks.

PDFfiller is great if you need to edit/change PDFs
This software allows us to fill out and share PDFs, vastly cutting down on our printing/scanning song and dance.
No real negatives other than I wish it were free.

Best FREE PDF filler
This site is both efficient and extremely useful! Out of all the pdf sites I have ever used, this one is the simplest to navigate and does not constantly try to get me to pay for a subscription. I love its many features and will continue to use it.

A perfect user-friendly PDF Editor
`*I usually don't look forward to doing PDF editing as it is usually a nightmare. Nothing lines up, missing a feature you need, doesn't save correctly, or you can't send it, etc.
This is the first PDF editor that I actually have fun with, super user-friendly, fast learning curve, yet looks professional, is feature rich [in fact it has features the others don't have], and no problems saving and sending or later editing it again down the road. I am just ending a one month free trial offer and will gladly renew it as my permanent PDF editor.

What do you like best?
I use it everyday for certificates of insurance, the program is very user friendly
What do you dislike?
I have tried to save the link on my computer but it never saves. I always have to google acord PDF filler.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
It saves all my COI so I just need to change the date and certificate holder.

Great tool to simply fill out PDF
Nothing super fancy but a stable, well purposed PDF editor that has easy access to upload and download PDFs.
Easy to upload and download PDFs for simple editing tasks. Whether wanting to fill out with text or signatures, very simple to edit freely on a PDF.
A lot of competitors that are web based make this another run of the mill PDF editor. Nothing super fancy.
2020-10-23
Easy to use once I figured it out. I have been looking for a program like this for a while. It has everything you can possibly need at a very reasonable rate.
