What our customers say about pdfFiller

See for yourself by reading reviews on the most popular resources:
like the program overall. It took me longer than I anticipated to learn the navigation. Must have taken me like 2 hours just to find the forms catalog on the main screen.

What do you like best?
Allows unlimited potential to edit virtually any document and send it electronically or conventionally. This software is a time saver/life saver.
What do you dislike?
The drawback. The Eraser tool. This tool could use some work as far as the shape of the tool. The option to be circular as well as the normal shape would be of great assistance when editing. A competitor of yours, sorry to mention uses an eraser too that is amazing and I have thought of switching simply for access to the editing qualities of that software. It allows for the one time purchase of their software and I would not pay monthly fees to maintain it either.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try out the product and use it!! See what you are missing!!
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
The editor allows our office to clean up and mark up documents received in our office such as lease agreements or forms attached to a policy which either enhance or negatively impact the clients coverage from year to year. We directly not on those forms in our proposals during renewal negotiations so the client has specifically seen and reviewed how the coverage impacts their insurance needs.

What do you like best?
Changing things (like dates) on insurance forms helps us a great deal when the insurance information stays the same and only the date needs changed. (Accord forms). We don't have to completely retype an insurance renewal form. So Handy
What do you dislike?
I have helped a colleague in inputting his information on flyers that had someone else's and the eraser showed lines in the final product. I had to figure out what was going on and I figured out I could increase the eraser to remove items rather than going over it several times (like wite-out tape).
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you need to make changes to documents that you do not want to retype over and over again, then this product is a handy tool. Also, for doing 'already-made-up-flyers' to use for yourself by adding your own information is great. I used to have to remake everything with Corel Draw. This is waaaaaaay easier!!
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
Non really for what I use it for.

Great program!!!!! I am really impressed with how informative and user friendly your program is and I am thrilled with how much easier it is now to deal with pdf files than when I had to do any editing, manipulation and/or signing of them.

What do you like best? Navigation is simple, editing works well and have never had any issues. What do you dislike? I really have not found anything that does not suit my needs. What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you? To edit design documents quickly by making quick changes. It also helps in editing quotes to clients.
