What our customers say about pdfFiller
See for yourself by reading reviews on the most popular resources:
Just getting started with some of the applications, but so far, so good. Definitely beneficial in replacing lost forms. Looking forward to other uses. Maybe survey another time. Thank you.

I really like the ease in using this program. I have tried other PDF software but find them all very awkward to use. I am just not sure about the pricing. I assume I signed up for 12 months? This is a great program and I don't have to hand print documents when most documents are PDF anyway.
2017-02-04
I had a little issue trying to find out how to print the form. Also, the little movable box that kept showing me where to check got in the way of reading the document. I X'ed it out most of the time so I could read the instructions.

overall I like pdffiller, but there are some things I wish I could do, like circle items in word docs. The only circle function I see does not seem to work very well. I would like to be able to draw circles around items more easily. As for signature authentication, is it necessary to include date? It would be easier if the authentication did not include the date. This isn't a big deal, since I can see why the date is necessary... but sometimes I sign a contract on for example, Sept 1st at midnight, but I don't want my clients to know I signed at midnight Sept 1st, particularly if I should have signed the document sooner. Anyway, these are just little issues that I've come across and changes would make my business a bit easier.

Easy to use once I figured it out - with 3 jobs it has become mandatory to use/edit pdf which I have been trying to avoid. Thanks!
Update: Still liking this program!

Simple, does the job
Maybe some standard forms should be on their site and properly labeled.
It's simple and does the job. It's very straight forward.
I feel like searching for the right form is a little tricky sometimes

What do you like best?
The ability to easily upload various documents and manipulate as needed.
What do you dislike?
The difficulty in emailing a document and getting a notification when the die is opened. Could it be less than using a PIN to access the document. Although the security is a nice factor.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The most valuable tool you can add to your toolbox.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
PdfFiller allows me to send confidential documents to my districts HR keeping my payroll moving forward.

I love the app because it's very convenient. However, I found typing into the right spaces to be challenging, especially when I tried to align to them into the correct places.
