At first I did have problems figuring out how to use it. I don't see a "copy/paste" button and wish there was one. Overall, as I start to use it more and more I am liking it.
Regards.

The obne drawback I find is when I am typing into a field there is no auto return and I suddenly am skipping to other fields. However, it is still a pretty good product.
2018-09-25
So far, it is excellent for moderately tweaking content. It would be nice if I could select images and move them like Adobe but this is so rarely needed....

pdfFiller.com gave me faith in online…
pdfFiller.com gave me faith in online companies. I have no idea what I was trying to accomplish, but had signed up for a 30 day trial. I never used the program, just must have been sleep working. Anyhow, I was so surprised when I got the notification that I had just bought a year subscription. I was beating myself up and trying to figure out how I could be so unaware. I first tried to call. The phone was endlessly busy, I thought wow I just lost $122 (I paid in Canadian funds). Anyhow, I thought I may as well try sending an email. I could not believe it!!!! The response was almost immediate. Max, took care of everything. He issued a refund, and let me know he had cancelled any future subscription. I was in absolute shock. If I had a need for pdfFiller, in that moment, I would have signed up for years. THANK YOU for being accommodating and obviously trustworthy. Again, you have given me a bit of hope for humanity.

Pdf-Filler was the best solution to work on Pdf files I have to fill out and edit.
I use Mac computers and I could not find any other Pdf product working so good on IOS.
2021-04-08
What do you like best?
I like the fact pdf Fills stores and keep my documents in order!
I like it's easy to use, and it comes with a fax!!
I am very pleased that I can send a fax, and I am able to submit report!
Also, it come with live help that is an excellent feature!
What do you dislike?
I dislike the wait period of 30 minute if I forget my password!
The systems doesn't seem to lock in my password.
I believe I have changed passwords maybe 3 times in under a year.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it! The price is good! The service is good! I have spoke with tech support a couple of time because I got locked out because I forgot my password and made to many attempts, so that's an excellent feature! You can also send faxes, so that's good. I will look to renew my subscription again! It's a good product!
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
Well because of pdfFiller, I can send pdf files to coworkers and present files as needed!
Before pdfFiller, my pdf files were not accepted by my supervisor and staff computers, but now, I can send pdf files with no concerns using pdfFiller! With the company working from home and folks using different systems/computer it's good that pdfFiller documents are able to be received by all my coworkers!

Great help
Great help, good program, but too expensive after the trial period. Also you have to contact the support to cancel the subscription, but that's reasonable since it's very active
