What do you like best?
I like the accessibility of the application. I can access from anywhere by just using my browser.
What do you dislike?
Sometimes the sizing is a bit tricky and I need to play around with the edits to make it work.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
I am able to take pdf documents, to which I have lost or never had the source file, and easily change them to what I need. Also, another great use is to fill-in forms in forms to which i only have hardcopy.

Great for making a pdf fillable planner I've tried Adobe & SODA pdf & both were a nightmare:/ From ctrl not being able to multi-selesct, text boxes not duplicating with a new names (meaning I would have to re-name or re-make 10000 boxes manually...) I've had a really good experience with pdf filler! It has everything I need to easily add fillable fields & make my planner useable. Thank you finally a product that matches my requirements.

Smooth fillable process Smooth fillable process. It's just the end of the process, saving the document and accessing it that I still need to get used to. I don't feel too comfortable as I feel like my documents are not easily accessible if I forget my password. I guess it's a matter of getting used to. Also is there a charge sometime in the future for this?
