This comes in so handy for certain projects we do here at the office. I actually love it. Well worth the price! I would like to attend a webinar to learn more about the features and things I am probably missing out on.

Nice service, but entering in text into some of the fields can result in wonky formatting if more text than can be displayed is entered. And it's not easy to re-visit the fields and edit/shorten the text.

By far the most functional PDF editor i have used... Not that i have used that many, but this one was a breath of fresh air considering the other broken standalone PDF editing apps

It's worked perfectly for filling out PDFs with no built-in fields, which is all I neeed it for - but it looks like a really great and easy-to-use tool from what I've seen

I am a relatively new user to pdffiller, but have found the platform user friendly and does exactly what I need it to. Helping me modernise a lot of statutory requirements for e-signatures and template creations.
When I experienced issues loading documents due to permissions through my work network, the support team at pdffiller responded quickly and continued assisting myself and co-ordinated with my employers IT support function to resolve it within 24 hours, allowing me to get on with my job.
