It's great. My kids have a lot of form for school that we have to print, sign, and then scan back into the computer. This prevents them (or me) from having to do this, great software!

It had some really great features but not as easy to maneuver through as I thought it might be. Was expensive with no other option for a company that does not need it that much.

The program is easy to use for searching for forms or updating my own documents. The program is easy to understand and use. It is intuitive for anyone used to editing documents or creating forms. I would prefer better opportunities to edit changes while in the same document. It can be challenging to erase and re-enter information.

I like that I can bring in any fillable… I like that I can bring in any fillable document, it makes everything to do with a business much easier. It's just not very easy to do. I have to remember how to do it every time. Not sure if that is my fualt or if this is just not that user friendly.

I am a data manager at a school and this program has made my job a whole lot easier when it comes to asking for student records. This also helps when my fax machine wants to be lazy lol the five stars are definitely not enough!

What do you like best? OMG! I can’t said enough about it. I have use it so many times, why to overpaid for Adobe acrobat or similar when you can have this? I recommend it to everyone who needs to edit, rearrange and send PDFs. What do you dislike? I don’t really dislike anything, maybe I would like the notarize option to let you do multiple signatures/ persons in the same document Recommendations to others considering the product: Try the free trial you would love it What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? Productivity All in one, I love that you can also signed and Edit all in one. Is very easy to use
