What our customers say about pdfFiller
See for yourself by reading reviews on the most popular resources:
PDF filler is a good program that allows easy filling of PDF documents. I appreciated it more before I tried to use the option to share documents with other people. I'm not sure what the original intent was for this product, so I do not wish to sound judgmental. As far as filling out the documents and downloading them or printing them is wonderful. When I started trying to share the documents with others to fill out and have them sign them, it became quite a bit more limited. Since that may not have been its original intent, I remain compassionate towards the limitations it has.

So far PDFfiller has been extremely easy to use and very useful! I previously used another program to convert and to edit PDF documents. Although it was also easy to use, this one is much easier and has way more options.
2016-03-23
I think the learning curve is a little steep. Also, at times the app seems a little counter-intuitive. It's not always easy to find forms you have worked on previously.

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.

Manage, edit, sign and notarized pdf forms easily
I can easily create, manage and edit my pdf documents with Pdffiller. It is a cloud storage where you can quickly login through facebook or google account. Open your pdf and edit it easily. You can convert your document to the available templates fit for your form and objectiives. I like it because i can open my documents in a web browser or through its desktop application. You can easily create a form where the recipient can put his or her signature by using its send to sign tool. You can share your document. You can email it. Whats best is that you can have your form notarized.
Pdffiller has different plans and price is affordable depending on the number of users. However chat support or customer support's turn around time to resolve issue also depends on your plan. If it is just basic, expect support to attend to you within 24 hours. If you have the premium, then it will be instant support.

One time using pdfFiller the first time…
One time using pdfFiller the first time saved me time doing a very basic operation (checking off fields when I was entering information from forms into another program). I have used the other program for over 15 years but recently moved from a PC to MacBook Pro. The program for Mac is harder to use than the PC product. I have spent too much time and frustration with that program. After one use, I had to spend much less time with little frustration. I hope it continues as I using pdfFiller

What do you dislike?
The most amount of pages you used to be able to merge was five but they have since changed this so I have no dislikes with the product
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
I used it to fill out contracts and pay applications along with notarized documents with my commercial construction company

Excellent and very useful. And good customer service! I was confirmed a refund quickly after contacting them (although I still have to wait for the transfer)
2020-11-16
The program is easy
The program is easy. I use it to convert documents into templates and then I provide links with my fillable forms to my clients to complete and return. I highly recommend.
