What our customers say about pdfFiller

See for yourself by reading reviews on the most popular resources:
I found it relatively easy to use, it would be nice if it had an undo selection. And getting the right size font was not easy. Had to wait for print out to see.

Works extremely well Super easy to figure out Very intuitive On the minus side I don't have enough PDFs monthly to justify the cost. Maybe there could be a 'per page cost' for the infrequent needs.

After contacting customer support, I was told that certain web browsers are more compatible than others in completing forms. Once I changed from Mozilla Firefox to Chrome, I was able to complete all fields of the form without problems. But it would have been helpful to publicize this information on your website so that much time was not wasted.

I feel like being able to do this (fill in forms) is almost a miracle. But like with most good things you have to practice, which I will be happy to do. Thank you. I am about to try a "big" project: i.e. preparing a Pre-printed PDF format Quit Claim Deed. If PDFfiller doesn't work I will have to invest in a typewriter. I'll update this again if I can when I have finished.

I have used PDF filler often to complete PDF forms. The program is very user friendly. I love it! I love the ease of use it creates when completing documents. It takes the hassle out of completing some of the complicated documents. I really don't have any negative feedback about the software. Sometimes the text of the document overlaps and I have not figured out how to avoid that from happening.

Very easy to use That I could fill it in immediately and be able to upload it and save it somewhere else. Also that the formatting remained the same That I had to save it twice in order to get what I had wrote. I also hate that the text box does not stay within the area you type in.

****** from PdfFiller is Excellent!I needed to cancel my service for the time being for financial reasons and they handled it kindly and seamlessly with no hassle. Should I need this type of service again, I will definitely be back. Would recommend PdfFIller to others. The service itself is intuitive and helped me easily provide my on boarding information for my new job.

What do you like best? The dashboard is intuitive and for me the best thing is being able to sign documents. What do you dislike? The application is good but has limitations versus the competition such as file size and not having the scanner tool on the cell phone. Recommendations to others considering the product: In my opinion, a multilanguage tutorial is necessary. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? The biggest benefit is being able to sign documents from a distance.

I've been using different apps for… I've been using different apps for years that take me about 15-30 minutes to change one document but with PDFfiller it took me less than two minutes! so worth the yearly fee.
