Fantastic customer service For some reason I needed this and only once. I got the free trial and then forgot all about it until $115.00 was collected from my account, shock horror. All I can say is you have fantastic customer service, I explained my situation and a refund was issued that same day. Both friendly and speedy. Ace by name and by character, much appreciated. 1 star deducted as I would have liked a reminder email when the free trial was coming to an end.

Experiencia en pdfFiller Mi experiencia con pdfFiller ha sido bastante positiva. Lo que más me ha gustado del software es su capacidad para crear y diseñar formularios de manera rápida y sencilla. Esto me ha ahorrado mucho tiempo al momento de completar trabajos y tareas para mis clases. Además, la automatización del proceso/flujo de trabajo también ha sido muy útil, ya que me permite organizar y enviar mis documentos de manera eficiente. Lo que más me ha gustado del software pdfFiller es la facilidad de creación y diseño de formularios, ya que me permite personalizar los formularios según mis necesidades y hacerlos más atractivos visualmente. Además, la automatización de procesos y flujos de trabajo me ha ayudado a ahorrar tiempo y aumentar mi productividad. Lo que menos me ha gustado del software pdfFiller es que a veces puede ser un poco difícil de usar para algunas personas menos familiarizadas con la tecnología. Aunque la interfaz es intuitiva, puede requerir un poco de tiempo para acostumbrarse a todas las funciones y opciones disponibles.
