I like that I can find most of the forms I need bit it is very difficult, at least for me to align some of my typing to the actual corresponding lines. (eg): pleading paper. Im sure there is a way but i haven't learned the whole program yet

honestly was harder to understand the first time, but I came back a few weeks later and in just that time it had become much more intuitive and to me seems to flow perfectly!

It would be easy and helpful to implement: A tool which allows you to pick the colour you want (and be able to use that colour to erase, paint and write). A auto text-detector and erase

I have had trouble finding documents and sending them in the past, it seems as though this site is easier to use today. I'm not the most tech savvy person in the world so I am learning sometimes the hard way! Definitely easier yesterday: to find documents to fill out and send. Makes billing a breeze!

What do you like best?
I love the program as a homeless case manager, I can review information with clients, send to them for review, and signature from my office
What do you dislike?
It needs a desktop application for easier access vs going to the website all the time.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
decreasing my travel, having access to documents when I need them in the PDF website, and access to cloud networks

Paul was able Paul was able, after me explaining my issue, to completely solve my problem! He was brilliant! Anthony and I had a conversation as well but I needed to cut the call short, therefore, no feedback form was sent for him. He too was extremely helpful!

What do you like best? I print and distribute numerous emails every week. As such, I have tried quite a bit of PDF software over the past several years, I have seen that pdfFiller does everything I need, every time, in an easy-to-use way. There is none better for the price. What do you dislike? At times, it is difficult to find a saved file from within Google Chrome. Recommendations to others considering the product: Before making a selection, make sure to use evaluation versions. It's a shame to get saddled down with something and later discover that it's not right for you. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? There is one peculiarity that I encounter every week. The first file that I modify is saved in the appropriate folder, and the browser shows me where to find it. For some peculiar reason, I have a hard time finding every file that I save after that. It could be an issue with the browser.
