What our customers say about pdfFiller

See for yourself by reading reviews on the most popular resources:
Limited capabilities on iPad. Would be nice to have drawing tools on iPad. Also can't copy and paste between two forms, so if you need to have the same info on two forms, it's somewhat cumbersome. That said, not bad for the price.

Overall easy to use, however, there are instances where the edits on the pdf become warped, other times its difficult to remove words or characters. There should be a save option versus a Save As, as that navigates you to another screen. Or have an auto save option. Overall good program but still has small defects.

Overall, the application is useful. The only issues that I have been experiencing is some of the edits I make either reappear, or are placed on top of the existing text.

Great Program with pretty much all you need This is a great program and I'm able to do what I want to so far. The only reason I did not give 5 stars is I think it is a little expensive for the service and it's not really user friendly I would think if you were not pretty computer literate. Outside of those two things...IT GREAT!

Perfect for on the go! Time saver and so convenient to have this! You can access from everywhere It's very easy to log on away from your desk to edit and send a document for a signature. I'm a logistics manager and I'm always on the go and most of the time I get phone calls away from my desk so its handy to be able to pull this software up on my phone to send important documents - especially customs paperwork when zip need to Nothing! You can pretty much find any document form needed in their library to assist you with your needs. You can even edit the document if need be.

The reason it is a four instead of a five... The reason it is a four instead of a five is I feel like there is a strong learning curve... at least for me. So I am still learning. Check back with me in a month and let's see if we can delete this 4 rating and move it up to a 5!!
