What do you like best?
I am able to create and update PDF files easily. The newer/updated features are wonderful. (ie. font colors and actual fonts)
What do you dislike?
Haven't had any issues that I can think of
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If your company handles PDF files on a regular day to day like mine this is a must-have. From removing or just moving pages to changing/adding the text. I use it daily and haven't found another product that compares. Even Adobe Acrobat doesn't compare.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
I can update items that have been delivered to me in a PDF format that I would have issues with normally.

I have only used it to get the 1500 form used in billing. I like that you can save your info. You can save your documents and print them. It is easy to use. I like the ability to fax and mail from the site. I have not used it yet to develop a form. I hope to do so before the New Year. It is nice to be able to mail and fax from the site.
