What do you like best?
It has the main features that I'm looking for: I can upload a pdf, add text, remove text, blackout text, etc. It also allows e-signatures.
What do you dislike?
The process to download files is a little tedious. You have to single-click on the file from a list, then the program takes you to a new page to rename and choose the download location. But if you accidentally double-click on the file, the file will open instead. I've been using this program for years and it still takes me way too long to download a file.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
I use pdfFiller to fill out forms for work. I used to have to print these forms, complete them by hand, then scan them and shred them. With this program we get to eliminate the use of paper and save time.

For pdfFiller’s FAQs
Below is a list of the most common customer questions. If you can’t find an answer to your question, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us.
Date the contract. Make sure both parties sign the agreement. Initial last minute changes to the contract. Make sure the other party has the authority to sign. Make sure the essential terms are present.
How do you protect yourself when signing a contract?
Make sure that what you sign matches with what you were promised. If there are differences, refuse to sign until the changes have been made. Don't agree to sign the contract on the promise that the changes will be made after the fact. Only sign once everything is squared away as promised, and you are comfortable.
Do you have to sign a contract for it to be legally binding?
The answer is yes. It is important to be aware that when agreeing to a written contract, it does not need to be signed by both parties to be legally binding. This case highlights that even if a contract says it has to be signed to be binding, if it is unsigned it may still have a legally binding effect.
Can you be tricked into signing a contract?
Even if the contract appears to be binding and enforceable on its face, you may have relief through exceptions in your state's laws. If you signed the contract based on a misrepresentation by the other party, you may be able to claim that the contract is voidable. The contract is void and there is no valid contract.
What does it mean when you sign a contract with a lawyer?
The simple reason to have a written agreement with your attorney is to make sure that both parties to the contract know what is going on. Most disputes that arise between lawyers and their clients are about money, whether it is how much the attorney is owed, or how much the client is owed as a refund.
Who and what does the contract protect?
When something goes wrong, a written contract protects both parties. If one party to a valid (enforceable) contract believes the other party has broken the contract (the legal term is breached) the party being harmed can bring a lawsuit against the party who it believes has breached the contract.
How does a contract protect your business?
In business, contracts are important because they outline expectations for both parties, protect both parties if those expectations aren't met and lock in the price that will be paid for services.
How does contract law impact a business?
Contract law affects businesses because all businesses are either providing a service or they're providing a product which means that they have to purchase, they have to resell, or they have to render services. So, that contract is usually the be-all and end-all of all the transactions that businesses enter into.
