What do you like best? Super easy to navigate. I am a custom cabinetmaker, and I use this to markup blueprints all the time. What do you dislike? Really no downside. I do find it takes a long time to merge docs, but that's really no big deal. What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you? E signing docs. Editing PDF's that were sent to me on my computer without having to scan the doc is amazing

It was amazing and very user-friendly! I love that pdffiller makes it so easy to fill out a form and sign a signature. Better than filling a form in Adobe Acrobat because you have to figure it out yourself.
