Great Product! So far, my experience with this product has been great! I have only used the PDF editing features and not played with the APIs. The navigation is friendly and quick, and tools are simple and easy enough to figure out. The page loading time was a little slow in my case- editing a 10 page PDF document, but it was sufficient.

What do you like best? Very user friendly and convenient. Allows multiple options. What do you dislike? The pdf filling can be more friendly else nothing to dislike. It does what it us supposed to do. Recommendations to others considering the product: It is a good product - go for it! What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? Allows splitting pdf, filling pdf documents and rearranging pages. I have not used it for converting pdf to word so do not know how accurate it is.
