PDFfiller tools equip me with ability to provide documents from my home office instead of going into the office to use printers and scanners to complete documents and send.

Using it to send IRS forms, very flexible options. Would like to enlarge the font size for printing some forms. If I use it more in future I will be interested in the webinar, but no need right now.

What do you like best?
In-line text, change font size, save options to name a few. Being able to quickly fill out insurance applications and having the text line up is amazing. I have been looking for this feature for awhile. PDFfiller is quick, easy, and has boosted my efficiency greatly.
What do you dislike?
The page fails when resizing text, and then you need to reload it. That is really my only issue other than when saving a PDF to my local machine, I don't need the indicator to pop up and tell me where to look.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Sign up! You won't regret it. PDFfiller is easy to use, extremely helpful, and increases productivity dramatically. Great product.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
Easily fill out lengthy forms via pdf vs having to print them out and fill out by hand. We have been able to complete applications and fill pdfs faster and get them to where they need to go much faster.
