I am not very computer savvy and I am learning as I go with this new MacPro, but so far it has been a very helpful tool and plenty of help explaining how.

Nice program. Was able to learn without reading the guide much. Would like the option to pay per document instead of subscribing via monthly or yearly.

I just started using this software … Found it while searching for a PDF Editor on Google...Very easy to use... Extremely efficient … I love it!

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 really like the service a lot. It is user friendly and intuitive. I like that this also comes with Sign Now so that I can have all the forms I need for my business easy and accessible for me to get electronically signed. I would give it 5 starts except in the Sign Now program the program should default to the text box for people to sign and then have the live signature be on a separate tab, so basically reverse what it is now. It is hard for some people to get to the text box for them to type their signature. I use this all the time in my business and I would recommend it.

New to this software but appears to be want I needed working with the many aspects of PDF's for our website. PDF Filler offered an excellent annual rate. I am concerned a little about getting to involved with them. You see it happen often after one year with service providers the rates start increasing. Than you need to find a new service to merge your existing business with. We'll see. Overall though the company has been excellent.
