What our customers say about pdfFiller

See for yourself by reading reviews on the most popular resources:
Being able to use pdffiller has been a lifesaver in so many ways: neatness, conversion of files, time saver, etc. I am a high school English teacher, and I also raise miniature Australian shepherds and quarter horses; with pdffiller, filling out forms online and being able to save them and/or fax them has saved me time, given a more professional look to my papers, and actually improved my productivity in different areas of my work.

Confusing subscription. I don't even know if I ever received the discount for an annual subscription. N-400 form in your library is OUT OF DATE Better way of retrieving password

I am so new to this, I need more time to create a useful review! I'm really excited about the application and if it fits my needs I'm happy to share with others. I know in the school district they are always looking for useful tools.

Got up & running pretty quickly. Very grateful. Really appreciated the Guidebook!!! Running in to a few glitches, but I have confidence that there are solutions as the software seems pretty powerful.

So far I like it. I don't like that it saves it multiple times and when I try to get rid of the older versions it erases all. I am not sure if I am doing it wrong. Overall, I like the features. I'd like to see the rotating feature added. For instance, when you erase and add a new text, and thd pdf page is crooked, you can cut and rotate the piece to straiten it.

I love this app just wish when using the Text Feature, when filling in a form with white space, that you could move the text box if it is not aligned .

SSA 44 Review The instructions were clear and the mechanisms to enter and modify data was easy to understand and complete. I'm not facile with computer programs and this was easy for me to complete.

What do you like best? We use the sign now feature the most and it is very helpful to be able to edit forms. What do you dislike? Maybe add a feature to also compress files and work with a scanner; so we can scan documents right into the software. What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you? Having remote agents fill out documents
