I am too Busy at the present time but I find the program very helpful. I would like to review the program after I get into it in the tax season for more comments.

Using this site to fill out divorce paperwork. Sometimes the text is too big for the field I'm in, but other than that I think that the site is awesome.

A very useful product, although a bit tricky (complex) to work with. I don't fill out enough PDFs to make a subscription worthwhile, even at the discounted 75%-off rate. Thank you for allowing me to try it!
2018-11-01
Easy to use once I figured it out - with 3 jobs it has become mandatory to use/edit pdf which I have been trying to avoid. Thanks!
Update: Still liking this program!

The only reason my rating isn't a perfect 5 Stars is regarding getting an a document notarized online. Your website says it will be at no cost. But when linked to the vendor notary person, she said the cost is $25. When I contacted your company a couple of times, it was indicated someone would get back to me w/ answer. But that never happened.

What do you like best?
I use it as a healthcare EHR. Very convenient.
What do you dislike?
I only really have one complaint. When I use it to fill my PDF files, the pop up bubble gets in the way after I click a box so then I have to click somewhere else to see my next option.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
Send to sign is convenient. Send to fax is also nice.

It makes pdf documents manageable !! Everyone has some reason to love it!
You have to need it for every day utilization to deserve to buy.
You can do anything on a pdf document. Of course the basic features as to sign, insert date and page number. Highlight words, insert marks, cyrcle a word or an item.Insert an image easily. More specific features: eraser tool, text box, drop down menu (for someone to choose from) and verification of the document! All languages are supported.
The cost is quite salty.. and the history version is missing. Page scroll down is a bit unconvinient that wastes me time in large documents..

pdfFiller is very user friendly and is very helpful to upload any document from my computer and edit, save and share it with anyone to review, make necessary corrections and sign it digitally. I am glad to find this product online while doing some search on internet and will continue using it during the free trial period before purchasing paid subscription!

This is an excellent product/service that was very useful to me, especially because I have a ********** and can't install windows based pdf editing software. After the trial period, I had a family emergency that caused me to forget to cancel my trial (I love pdf filler but planned to subscribe later when I will need it more) so I was auto charged for the subscription once my trial ended. I contacted support to explain what happened and they responded and resolved my issue within just a few minutes. They were prompt, professional, and understanding. I feel great about the service and customer support that I recieved and plan to subscribe to pdf filler in the near future. I wild gladly recommend pdf filler to anyone who wants a great way to edit pdf files with the confidence of working with a company that has excellent customer service.
