What our customers say about pdfFiller

See for yourself by reading reviews on the most popular resources:
I did not read the info, just went into the bpo form, which was very easy/simple. But, after all inputs were done, I realized I had to pay, and I did not have no money on me or in my account. Gilbie was an excellent agent who helped me out to at least get a print out. The software could only print, but couldn't save. I think if I am going to do this often, I will love to purchase this software. Thanks.

Simplifies everything, makes everything much, much easier. In real estate, the ability to simplify the requirements for clients makes a massive difference in their overall experience. I highly recommend PDFfiller for all brokers out there!

Awesome!! I don't know what I have done without you. I do real estate transactions weekly and I love that I can upload different documents, edit them, and send them out. Well worth the cost. Thank you.

What do you like best?
We use PDFfiller primarily for tracking and completing registration forms for the advanced trainings we provide to mental health professionals across the country. Manually managing these forms was a nightmare as our business started to grow. Once we started using PDFfiller, it began incredibly easy and hassle free to monitor who was registered for which trainings and when. the integrated PayPal and Stripe systems make it super easy to allow customers to pay registration fees immediately and we are notified as soon as that happens. Also, PDFfiller offers a digital fax line. In today's day and age, we are completely wireless and adding a hardwired fax line would have been such a pain. For 10 bucks we are able to digitally send and receive faxes which is very helpful when dealing with physicians and other medical providers.
What do you dislike?
We have only had one real issue with PDFfiller. At some point a few months ago, we had some issues with the PayPal/Stripe payment integration. We were unable to send receipts to our customer which was rather frustrating for us and them because of the amount of money people spend to some to our trainings. I reached out to someone at PDFfiller and a manager responded the next business day and said they would get in touch with the team who handles that part to get it fixed. Though I did not hear back, within a week or so the problem was fixed.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Do it. It is well worth the price for what you are getting.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
Sending and receiving faxes through this program is a lifesaver. I am able to access them anywhere at any time whether I am in the office or out of town. It's also a great organizational tool for tracking out "link to fill" forms.

One of the better document editing apps available Allows you to go completely paperless. Create pdf files from Excel, Word, etc. Merge or split different files. Offers electronic signatures. Easy to operate. Can track if the document has been viewed. The app does what it says it does but in order to use more advanced features and options, the cost can get expensive.

It's been great so far. I need to learn how to move around the dashboard quicker. Also, I need to learn how to set up individual folders (if applicable)?

Great to use Great to use, but wish the font/size/color of text would always remain as the original was during editing existing text, or at least show what that information is to the user.
