The search feature is easy to use, I love the option to save the form to my own computer once it has been filled out. The option to use an app is wonderful.

Simply put, PDFFILLER has made my life a whole lot 'simpler'. I am no longer buried up to my eyeballs in paperwork (just up to my knees now! ha!) Since i began using PDFfiller, my desk is now, finally, Organized! Before PDFfiller - you couldnt even see the glass top on my computer desk., but now, since using PDFfiller, you can actually see every square inch of my desk! there isnt a single piece of paper 'waiting to be scanned', or filled out, so on and so forth. Which obviously has a huge impact on my ability to stay on track and stay focused! Needless to say I absolutely LOVE pdffiller! NO REGRETS!

Nice applications, sometimes doesn't move real smoothe from one blank to the next if you do not need to fill in for that one it seems to get stuck and has a lag, but over all, nice program.

Form 1099-misc accepted the data that I entered in each filed, and propagated it to all the required Copies; then prompted me to Submit to the IRS ... This simplifies my execution of Federally mandated processes ... Thank you very much!
Also, support staff is very responsive! Thank you!

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.

THE APP HAS ALL THE FEATURES AND MORE THAT YOU MAY NEED FOR EDITING AND CREATING DOCUMENTS AND ETC. I LOVE ALL THE OPTIONS. THE LAYOUT OF THE APP IS NICE TOO. EASY TO NAVIGATE. VERY CONVENIENT. I WILL BE USING THIS APP ALOT. GOOD WORK!!

If you have forms to fill out electronically, this is the website to use. It is simple even for those not great with tech! Customer service is also very honest and helpful as far as billing, etc.

So far, it has been acceptable, but I am having to self teach a lot of items. It would be good to have a one hour presentation on the basics, and then some specific presentations on individual task.
