See for yourself by reading reviews on the most popular resources:
This service is a lifesaver. If, like me you don't have original adobe software and only occasionally have to fill in PDf's, PDFfiller has made life easier. So simple to use - brilliant!

I am , frankly, very pleasantly surprised that the site had access to seemingly very esoteric Probate forms from Virginia courts. The process was intuitive.

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.

This really works
My over all experience was pretty good I really like this software and would reccomend it to everyone it is definitely my top choice.
I liked the fact that you could take virtually any document and fill in the spaces with the information of your own. It really makes things a lot easier
I didnt like how you couldn't delete words that were already there I wish it was all in one app instead of having to download 3 or 4 different apps to get what I want done accomplished

I was freaking out that I couldn't save…
I was freaking out that I couldn't save my work on a PDF for a scholarship app, but after finding this, I am very happy and calm.

Simple and powerful to use to edit, sign and reorganise pages quickly thanks to its web interface.
For me, it is a must-have and is reasonably priced compared to its competitors.

Intuitive and easy to use
Easily and quickly fill pdfs with this simple software, just be aware there is no free option other than a 30-day trial.
This software is really straightforward and easy to use. I find it intuitive and am able to edit pdfs quickly and painlessly. Adding a signature is really easy as well.
I did the free trial of this software and even though I was impressed, I didn't end up purchasing the monthly subscription due to my needs. There are options out there that are free, although they're definitely inferior in terms of functionality and user interface. So I think the cost (even though it is reasonable) ended up being not worth it for me specifically in the end. Other than that, I had no problems with the software and would recommend it to someone who uses pdf software frequently.

Only use quarterly for one customer, would attend/watch a webinar or tutorial to make it more user friendly and see if it would work with other customers

What do you like best?
Easily convert PDFs to word and rotate pages withing an improperly scanned PDF
What do you dislike?
The text writing font options are few and when the writing box dissapears the text changes size and font that what it was displayed.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
More font options and ability to match font of the original document. When editing in a document your software changes the size and font of the edited text.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
Filling out forms and signing documents.
