This was a great site to get my office free from all papers. When we need a document we just upload it out of our computer or one of our drives and fill the form. It is literally that easy and I am loving it.

OK. some limitations, like I need conditional logic, so if someone checks the Yes box for a question, then require them to fill out other fields. Need this conditional logic functionality, critical for my application. Else not sure PDFFiller will be useful to us.

Sometimes the system will not allow me to download the forms I've edited. Sometimes there are glitches in the system that prevent us from logging in and saving documents. Sometimes system can be a bit slow, I notice it more in the afternoon where people may use the system more.

Saves so much time I like this software because it is so easy to use. It saved me time and allowed me to quickly complete the necessary document The only con I have with this software was that when printed it did not print all of the words typed in

Great User friendly Program!! The program is very user friendly and pretty much self explanatory. However, if you do have any questions, Customer Service is also very friendly and helpful!!!! They respond quickly and walk you through any questions you have.

several clunky features There are several clunky features I did not like. (1) My first issue was that when editing text, the font would change from Times New Roman to Arial within the edit box. The user had to "tell" the computer to switch back to Times New Roman. (2) Another issue I spotted is that if I want to italicize ONE word on a line of text, the entire line will become italicized. This was cured by deleting the italicized word, then creating a separate text box with the italicized word in it. The italic text box was dropped into the line of text with the plain text around it. (3) When editing text, the size of text will drop down a size or two. The writer must "bump" up the text size with the upward arrow to get it to match the text in the original document. Otherwise, I like using PDFfiller. Of course, PDF editing is not as simple as ordinary word editing. Or perhaps PDF editing gets easier after continual practice.

Great for e-signatures on documents that require it It's a widely utilized format and makes editing and e-signing documents simple It's not super easy to navigate and a little difficult to figure out when you first start usi

Great tool to simply fill out PDF Nothing super fancy but a stable, well purposed PDF editor that has easy access to upload and download PDFs. Easy to upload and download PDFs for simple editing tasks. Whether wanting to fill out with text or signatures, very simple to edit freely on a PDF. A lot of competitors that are web based make this another run of the mill PDF editor. Nothing super fancy.
