To Whom It May Concern:
I love your service. I am trying to find work at with a university, and because of your service I am able to apply to campuses without fully online applications quickly by editing my initial application, rather than having to rewrite it every single time.
Thanks a million!
Yours,
Peppe

I was annoyed that I had to enter credit card info for a free trial. It makes me feel as if I'm being tricked into keeping your service. Very pleased with how the product works though.

Solid, provides the service you need
Easy to use. Mostly used for inserting signatures.
Sometimes the signature block format gets distorted (inserts as a code).

Overall a very good service
Not the cheapest subscription, but you can upload your documents, edit them, send them via emai, fax, USPS, sms, etc. Lots of functionality and very useful. Login anywhere to continue, even via app.

Great improvement on traditional Adobe products.
Good experience. I would recommend this to other in lieu of mainstream products.
Simple, easy to use and operates seamlessly with other programs. It also maintains the appropriate information for future use in other forms.
At times, information is lost when downloading forms from websites or is not saved when transmitting via email.
