I may be an idiot but it isn't the most intuitive experience I've had. I have been under pressure to produce so that may have something to do with it.

There doesnt seem to be alot of "man in the street" logic to how you explain things. It seems to be written by Code cutters or IT people. Lots of simple things like , I look up how to save a document. You say : Save your document by clicking the 'Save as PDF' button in either the "MyForms" . There is NO such button only a "save as" button. Also Where is the "My Forms" page? is it named as such or .... ????Bascally though, its a great piece of software. You just have to get a REAL human being to rewrite instructions.

My name is Jonathan from Africa
My name is Jonathan from Africa, I needed a form via PDFfiller but was unable to use the service and was billed while on 30 days trial. That got me upset but after contacting Shennon online support, I was assisted, and in less than 10 minutes, it was resolved. Shennon exceeded my expectation. Satisfied. Therefore I commend Shennon for a great and wow customer service. Because of this singular act, I will recommend your company to friends.Thank you
