What our customers say about pdfFiller

See for yourself by reading reviews on the most popular resources:
I don't know why each time I do a function, I have to go back to MY Forms. It would be easier to save or print and stay where I am. Also, when I update a form, the original creation date stays instead of the updated date.

I'm loving the versatility of this application and I'm really glad that I bought it. I've used it in a variety of situations and I especially like that I can upload a non-pdf document and choose the output that works best for my needs.

At first I had difficulty understanding how to use PDF Filler maybe because the way the dashboard was set up was that there were too many icons that made it seem too overwhelming.

I really like the service a lot. It is user friendly and intuitive. I like that this also comes with Sign Now so that I can have all the forms I need for my business easy and accessible for me to get electronically signed. I would give it 5 starts except in the Sign Now program the program should default to the text box for people to sign and then have the live signature be on a separate tab, so basically reverse what it is now. It is hard for some people to get to the text box for them to type their signature. I use this all the time in my business and I would recommend it.
