What do you like best?
I love that I can alter a pdf with just about anything. I can also send forms to my clients to e-sign through a secure site. Often I use it to sign documents that are sent to me as well.
What do you dislike?
The only drawback that I have is if I upload a document and want to use it for different customers, it doesn't save each one individually.
Recommendations to others considering the product:

For pdfFiller’s FAQs
Below is a list of the most common customer questions. If you can’t find an answer to your question, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us.
In spite of the intermittent hiccups in faxing, the machines are likely to live on for decades. They are comfortable, cheap, convenient and generally reliable. They're accepted around the world in ways that digital signatures sometimes are not.
Are fax machines outdated?
It's 2019 and faxing is still a thing. The fax machine is a symbol of obsolete technology long superseded by computer networks but faxing is actually growing in popularity. It turns out that in many cases, faxing is more secure, easier to use, and better suited to existing work habits than computer-based messaging.
Are fax machines still used today?
Fax machines are still very much in use today and have even managed to adapt to changing technological trends. In fact, research shows that about 17 billion faxes are sent on an annual basis by organizations and individuals all around the world.
When did fax machines stop being used?
The fax, at least as we know it, came into being in the mid-1970s (Almost Famous is set in 1973), when optical scanning, modulator and acoustic coupler technologies all came together. The process is fairly basic, and shouldn't have lasted into the Internet Age almost unchanged.
What replaced the fax machine?
A virtual fax system is a far better alternative to the outdated clunky fax machine. Internet faxing gives you the same service provided by a traditional fax machine, but with added features and lower costs. A virtual fax works this way you set up an account and choose a fax number.
Why do doctors still use fax machines?
Hospital and doctor offices generally remain unable to transfer electronic information to other hospitals and doctor offices. Billions of dollars later, they are left printing out documents and faxing them. And so the fax machine remains medicine's dominant method of communication.
Can fax machines be hacked?
Although fax machines are way more secure than computers and emails, nothing can be completely impervious to hacks or malicious uses. Since fax machines do not use the internet to send their data, this just means that hackers cannot use the internet to gain access and information from fax machines.
Are fax machines secure?
Documents sent by fax are able to be considered legally binding, especially if they contain a physical or digital signature. While traditional faxing often uses unsecured phone lines, electronic faxes are encrypted using a secure and reliable system to protect your data.
