What our customers say about pdfFiller

See for yourself by reading reviews on the most popular resources:
It was the only source I could find to obtain 2014 Form 990 forms. The IRS site shows 2014 forms tabs but they are for 2015 which is the wrong form. I could not find the supplemental forms I needed by searching the website so I gave up and contacted customer support on your chat line. The rep was very polite and sought out all the supplemental forms I needed to finish the job. That's a real plus but I should have been able to find the forms on the website.

Did not know what to expect at first, this being my first time to use online PDF forms. But, after I got the hang of it, it's working out awesome and exactly what I was looking for.

Pros: +Has a send to sign feature +Allows editing of PDF text +Add/Remove/Edit Fillable fields +Save forms as templates +Up to 5 users with the largest subscription Cons: -Layout is not intuitive and hard to learn, even for the computer literate -Limits merging to 5 PDFs -Limits on file size (you can't work on large PDFs) -Other minor inconveniences that slow workflow I chose PDFfiller for my small company because for the same price as one user for Adobe's similar product, I can have 5 users for PDFfiller. It definitely has some limiting factors and can be frustrating but it's the best you can get for the price. Definitely worth the time to take the free trial and see how you like it.

I grew tired of waiting for my colleague to get around to fixing our PDFs. This program has made it quick and easy for me to accomplish what we really needed to help our clients! I am very pleased with how intuitive it has been.

What do you like best? It is very user friendly. It has a lot of features that I constantly use. I have expanded from a one user account to a multi user account becasue the product is so good. What do you dislike? Nothing really. I am able to youtube anything that I don't understand and typically get it. Recommendations to others considering the product: Get it while you can as it will be a major help to automating your systems. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? Being able to change PDFs and being able to electronically sign documents.

What do you like best? The ability to modify documents specific to our needs. The Tools provided give me maximum ability to modify, add, remove and edit any document in any way that is needed. What do you dislike? I haven't encountered anything I dislike about this product. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? It's helping us to create documents that are needed specific to our clients rather than generating generic and boilerplate documents that are not personalized to our clients.
