What our customers say about pdfFiller

See for yourself by reading reviews on the most popular resources:
PDFfiller was intuitively simple to use in creating an important document. I had difficulty erasing some text I accidentally superimposed onto my document and the recipient who ultimately got the PDF I created could not open it. Also disappointing was the fact that I didn't realize I had to pay a tidy subscription price until after I completed my document and tried to send it off (and save it). That all led to an initially horrible review. But, I have to say that my experience with PDFfiller and Elie, the rep I dealt with, revised my entire experience. Not only did Elie help resolve the problems in a very timely fashion, I received a refund! PDFfiller seems dedicated to provide the user an efficient product and the customer service is the best I've seen with any internet-based business. Elie is a great ambassador for the business and she really follows through with her promises! I never expected that. They are also going to revise some aspects of the user interface to ensure proper notice of expense and conditions of subscription. I will certainly use PDFfiller in the future!

What do you like best?
It is very convenient, efficient and easy to use.
What do you dislike?
The mobile version is not as efficient.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
It is very useful and a lifesaver when on the go and a document(s) needs completed and signing. It is less time consuming and saves paper as you do not need to print and complete/sign documents.

A Superb App to Create Fillable PDF Forms The most easiest app to create fillable pdf forms in the most efficient way. Furthermore, editing an existing pdf is so much easier with super features such as text editing, adding watermark, merging and splitting pdf files, etc. This is a paid application. Editor interface is not that simple and you need more time to learn for the beginne

Easy to use and having documents saved in different versions on the cloud was very helpful. Kind of expensive for the level of support that I needed.

Good Features and Functionality I have used this software app for every type of editing, creating, and converting imaginable and have yet to have something it couldn't do. You can use the software for almost any kind of pdf editing, plus document type conversions. It is very easy to use without much training or help. The most recent update added a step to get to your full document list. Wish they would have left it at the original dashboard where all your docs appeared without the extra click.
