LIKED THE ABILITY TO SAVE AND PRINT BUT IT TOOK SEVERAL TRIAL AND ERROR EXPERIENCES TO FIGURE OUT THE PROCESS. SOMEONE WITH VERY LITTLE COMPUTER EXPERIENCE WOULD FIND THIS FRUSTRATING

Since this was my first experience using this app. I found it to be very user friendly. I am sure it will be simpler with additional experience. With the second use, this app. is very user friendly.

I AM ENJOYING HAVING USE OF THE PDF FILLER.COM Back in the day we needed a typewriter to fill-in the boxes. But, today, it is a must have to fill-in the boxes on various forms with the pdf filler and be able to complete your business work. I just love having this program to help me get my work completed!

What do you like best?
PDFfiller is a good cloud-based solution for signing and editing pdf documents without the need for a complete pdf editing suite. Uploading files is very simple. We just select Upload to go to the folder and then we can choose which documents to upload.
What do you dislike?
The speed of returning to the dashboard can be a bit slow sometimes. There is no autosave, so every time you log in on another session, you will exit from the first session and lose your unsaved work.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I have recommended this service to co-workers and others in my field. These people work with many forms and applications and they can solve many problems related to online documents with PDFfiller.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
We can easily add the fields we need to any document. In just a few steps, we can send the document to the recipient to collect information or sign. It is especially useful when I leave my desk and need to sign a document on my phone.

The NC OTP was a perfect match and was all that we needed to get the buyer and seller on the same page. Although it wasn't used by the attorneys it could have easily been used since it was identical to the one they used.

A good program (and nice people) A good program, a bit too comprehensive for me (in some ways), and a few (to me) important features were missing. After my trial period, I was accidentally invoiced for a full year, the support department solved that nicely.
