What our customers say about pdfFiller
See for yourself by reading reviews on the most popular resources:
ITS PRETTY GREAT, THERE ARE A FEW FEATURES I WOULD LIKE, INCLUDING AN ONLINE MANUAL AND THE ABILITY TO MOVE TEXT BOXES ONCE THEY ARE FILLED OUT. THERE COULD ALSO BE AN ABILITY TO PAY PER FORM AS I PROBABLY WON'T BE FILLING OUT PDFS FREQUENTLY ENOUGH TO JUSTIFY MONTHLY PAYMENTS.

I am very pleased with how easy it is to create impressive PDFs. PDFfiller offers all of the features that Adobe offers with acrobat - for about 1/2 the price.
The support team responded immediately when I had a problem (on a Sun night, I believe!) and the situation was resolved there and then. Impressive.

You need t tell people that if they enter numbers with commas, the IRS filing process does not work. After lots of time and trial/error, I stumbled across that as the cause of my problems.
2018-02-04
When I do the online fill out the form for application for a China Visa could not print out the form until I installed PDFfiller. Anyway, Thank you for your help.

I've been using PDFfiller regularly for over 2 years now, and it works wonderfully. I'm able to upload documents, add fillable lines, and get electronic signatures seamlessly. Customer service is also great - prompt and friendly in attending to any questions or issues. Makes running my business that much easier.

What do you like best?
I like the fact pdf Fills stores and keep my documents in order!
I like it's easy to use, and it comes with a fax!!
I am very pleased that I can send a fax, and I am able to submit report!
Also, it come with live help that is an excellent feature!
What do you dislike?
I dislike the wait period of 30 minute if I forget my password!
The systems doesn't seem to lock in my password.
I believe I have changed passwords maybe 3 times in under a year.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it! The price is good! The service is good! I have spoke with tech support a couple of time because I got locked out because I forgot my password and made to many attempts, so that's an excellent feature! You can also send faxes, so that's good. I will look to renew my subscription again! It's a good product!
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
Well because of pdfFiller, I can send pdf files to coworkers and present files as needed!
Before pdfFiller, my pdf files were not accepted by my supervisor and staff computers, but now, I can send pdf files with no concerns using pdfFiller! With the company working from home and folks using different systems/computer it's good that pdfFiller documents are able to be received by all my coworkers!

What do you like best?
Basically, it just works. There is no learning curve, no difficulties, no glitches. It is simple, does what it is supposed to do and more. I can merge sheets, sign docs, fill out forms ... everything that could otherwise be a hassle while working remotely.
What do you dislike?
It may just be my set up, but when I have completed the document on pdf Filler and click "save as," it downloads to my desktop as opposed to allowing me to set the folder of my choice on my hard drive. Not that big of a deal to open the download and 'save as' from there, but just a small annoyance.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
I often receive documents piecemeal - one page at a time - or I get them back from different signors in different configurations. I love that I can upload them all at once, merge them right off the bat and have the combined document. I can easily rearrange the pages if needed too. Also, during this Pandemic, it has proved invaluable in getting documents easily executed when you cannot meet with signors in person.

Very easy to use and versatile can't…
Very easy to use and versatile can't use it enough. I still think it's a bit pricy though for what it is,

Your company is great. At this time, the govt is advising us to show them payroll and W2. W. On this note I will conceal my free trial. Sincerely. Elizabeth Obi
