What our customers say about pdfFiller

See for yourself by reading reviews on the most popular resources:
Mostly good - had a little difficulty when the app decided I could only answer 1 category when I needed to respond to all 5 subcategories of a question. Also, messed with the date - it changed to a different format.

I wish I didn't have to pay. I would have found another free site, like going to SSI site, but I had already filled in all the blanks and it was so time consuming that it wasn't worth the effort. I will cancel as soon as I get the bill.

What do you like best?
I can remove text with the delete button rather than having the use the eraser tool
What do you dislike?
If I delete all of the characters from a text box, I have to put a space for it to stick; I can't add or drag in other pdfs to merge them. I have to merge them using a separate tool.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Inexpensive and easy to use.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
Redacting resumes in PDF form. Easy to fill out forms as well as it recognizes what the form is asking.

It works and I'll keep using it! It's been a good experience. I have used it several times and it gets the job done. I get PDFs sent to me from time to time and it can't get much simpler than using the PDFfiller. It works great. Nothing that I am unhappy with. It works every time and I have come to depend on it. Allows me to be professional and quick.

I think that it's a great thing. It makes fighting a case much easier. That more people don't use it. There is nothing else that I like least about it. My vice president used it also an has no problems with it. Being able to find what your looking for, then being able to fill form in an save it, then come back to it.

Easy to work with and fast responding time. I did not use it as much as I thought, and thought I had canceled it but apparently did not. They helped and refunded the money without question in a very quick time.

This morning my subscription to PdfFiller was automatically renewed. Once I realized it, I notified the company to cancel my subscription and to provide a refund. Within a short time, I received a response confirming that the subscription was canceled and that the charge was reversed. I would definitely recommend this company and would use them again if I had a need.TL
