What our customers say about pdfFiller
See for yourself by reading reviews on the most popular resources:
Works great, nice little addition would be the ability to copy sections of already input text and drop more copies of that same text on other parts of the page. Would make what I do ALOT easier.

When the court clerk doesn't have customized forms for filing, this is so much easier than trying to perfectly fill out long, generic forms by hand in blue or black ink!

What do you like best?
The interface of PDFfiller is simple and intuitive. I think that most people can sign up and start using PDFfiller without having to spend much time figuring things out. Once we load a PDF into the system, there are straightforward menu items and labels that help to fill out virtually any form from start to finish. I can save to PDF format with my filled-in information or print right from the PDFfiller website.
What do you dislike?
Anytime I post my information online, I get apprehensive about how my data is being used. Though I'm sure PDFfiller probably takes measures to keep our uploaded and saved documents secure, I just never know with all the malware and server attacks that often occur, in general.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Some people probably don't want to hassle with putting their documents through a digitized system, but I think once you upload one form to PDFfiller, you'll see how intuitive the entire process and may possibly not print out documents to fill them out anymore.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
My handwriting is basically terrible and I often get strains when writing since I typically haven't written by hand much over the past several years. PDFfiller lets me fill out PDF documents more effortlessly and lets me align text and other objects with great precision.
