It's very good and I recommend it to others. I know I am not getting the full benefit, and should attend a webinar but feel too busy unless it could be archived and watched at my convenience.

I love this program because it is so easy to use. All of my forms look very professional. After the form is completed, I can save, email or print it. I won't use another program.

The greatest part about this site is being able to search for all of the various different forms you need. Turbo Tax wanted $159 just to fill out tax forms only needed once a year. Saving a ton on this site!!

Easy to use once I figured it out - with 3 jobs it has become mandatory to use/edit pdf which I have been trying to avoid. Thanks! Update: Still liking this program!

What do you like best?
As a Realtor, my whole business is based on electronic documentation. PDF filler is kind of named poorly, because it really is a PDF editor. It allows you to easily change almost anything on a pdf document...across both desktop and mobile platforms. It simply works as you'd expect it to...every time. I use it practically every day.
What do you dislike?
I wish there were better tools for generating lines (how about a toggle into and out of orthagonal for a line?) It should allow deeper zooming with a thumbnail view showing where you are in the overall document. I like my pdfs to look perfect and sometimes these limit me in that goal.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
A Realtor literally lives or dies on his/her electronic documentation. This tool lets me master the changes that inevitably occur with documents. I use it every day.

What do you like best?
The support team is very helpful and responds quickly.
What do you dislike?
The product was excellent our company is too small to make proper use of their services. I would have appreciated being able to purchase the service to use on an as-need basis.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
This product allowed me to make pdf forms that could be filled out online/electronically rather than printed, manually filled out and scanned.

I have used PDF filler to change dates on my job seeking paperwork. I use PDF filler to fill in work forms. I love that I can get my signature easily, and ask others to sign forms! This is great for school paperwork.
