What do you like best?
I used PDFfiller to complete PDF versions of scholarship applications and it was such a time savings and so easy to work with that it was worth every penny. Since that time I have found many more features, like the verified signing, that it has become a necessary tool for both work and personal use.
What do you dislike?
Not really anything I disliked. I think the price for a personal user is a little expensive.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
Verified signatures and completing PDF documents.

Love it I love it and have recommended it to friends and collegues. Love the ability to change forms around and manipulate the forms to move entire sections around and still keep things neat and professional looking. The dashboard is messy and not as well organized as it could be.

Each file can support up to 8 bits per pixel and can contain 256 indexed colors. GIF files also allow images or frames to be combined, creating basic animations.

Uploads are limited to 100MB, although we recommend 8MB or less. Source video resolution should be 720p max, but we recommend you keep it at 480p. Keep in mind media will appear mostly on small screens or smaller messaging windows.
Photos can be up to 5MB, animated GIFs can be up to 5MB on mobile, and up to 15MB on web. Supported image types are GIF, JPEG, and PNG files. BMP and TIFF files are not supported.
1) Frames. For instance, if you have a 5-second animation and download it in 20fps (frames per second) this means that your gif will contain 100 frames/images. For instance, if you have a GIF banner that weighs 5MB with 10s duration and 30fps, try changing the fps to 1fps. Your file size will immediately drop to 150KB.
Keep GIFs under 600 KB to ensure they won't be transcoded and compressed for carrier compatibility when sent. This ensures that recipients see the GIF the way you want it to appear in the highest quality possible. If the GIF is over 600 KB, the message may not be delivered.
