Likelihood to Recommend eSign Genie has completely streamlined our tedious document process and helps us to easily manage our documents from signature to delivery and even with ongoing storage. This enhancement saves us time, money, and headaches and has been a true lifesaver for our organization and for our customers. I highly recommend it!

Foxit PDF Editor's security features, such as password protection can be useful in ensuring the confidentiality of such documents. Foxit PDF Editor is a versatile tool that can be useful in a variety of scenarios in a newsroom, from editing news scripts to collaborating on news reports to creating graphics and visuals. Its advanced features and ease of use make it a popular choice among newsroom professionals.
Read full review Pros The learning curve is faster compared to the last software we used. It is easier to set up the templates and email messages so that the text boxes line up seamlessly. It is quicker to send agreements and to follow up if they are not returned in the allotted timeframe. Making changes to the documents is fast and easy. Read full review FoxitPhantom carries superior editing tools over Adobe Acrobat and similar products. It allows you to modify text, images, & objects in a more robust fashion Integrates well with Microsoft Office products such as Word, PPT, & Excel Allows you to work in a nearly paperless environment Read full review Cons I have no complaints about this software whatsoever. I started using Echosign years ago until Adobe bought them out and tripled the price and cut features. Then, I went to Docusign that was not very user friendly and the customer support is NON-EXISTENT. eSign Genie is wonderful! Read full review I have a dual monitor setup at work and there are times when I wish that I could view pdf documents on both monitors at the same time. I have not yet figured out how to do that with FoxitPhantom as it appears to limit the user to displaying multiple pdf documents as separate tabs on the same screen. If dual screen is an option in the software, it needs to be more apparent. I can't think of any other desired improvements. This software really does everything that I need it to do. Read full review Likelihood to Renew The tool is inexpensive and good value. We don't need a ton of eSign capabilities and this one provides what we need for a low cost given our low volume.
Read full review Because very few editors are so easy to use and deploy backed by speed and performance. Foxit PDF is known for its speed and performance, allowing users to open and work with PDF files quickly and efficiently
Foxit's user-friendly interface is easy to navigate and use, making it a popular choice for users who are new to PDF software.
Read full review Usability Super simple - needs almost no instructions to setup and use
Read full review Foxit Phantom is pretty easy to use, but it is not as intuitive as the latest Adobe PDF products. Although the initial transition across the organization was filled with negative reactions, I think that over a few months, all departments were able to adapt to the new software and feel like they could find what they need within the tool.
Read full review Performance FoxitPhantom PDF integrates very well with the Microsoft Office products, which is where I found I use this the most. It performs about as well as can be expected, without any out of place latency. Whether it be merging, deleting, editing or rearranging pages, its performance holds up even with larger documents.
Read full review Support Rating eSign Genie has live chat support virtually twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. They also have phone and email support as well. On the few occasions that I have had to contact support, they were very helpful, knowledgeable, and friendly. It's been a pleasure working with the folks at eSign Genie.
Read full review I haven't personally had interaction with the customer support from FoxitPhantom, however based on conversations I have had with members in the organization, I was given positive feedback. Their website has a lot of information and tutorials. If you need to contact them, they are quick to respond. User manuals are readily available.
Read full review Implementation Rating There is no implementation at all. You just sign up, upload your documents, set up the fields to complete, and you are done!
Read full review Alternatives Considered Adobe Sign , despite coming from one of the best known brands in software, is the most frustrating and poorly-supported platform I've ever used.
HelloSign and
PandaDoc are good platforms - although the cost a bit more than eSignGenie, they are ahead on some features (not all)... depending on your exact use case, I'd consider them. However, for my simple use case, eSigngenie is the clear winner!
Read full review I would say that when you want to get a bigger share of the market and take business from long time consolidated applications like
Acrobat , you really need to try harder and give something more to the user to be able to change their mind and switch to Foxit. In our case licensing was an important factor and at the beginning we had a small learning curve with users asking how to open PDF files and what was that orange icon. The truth is that we as users accepted the new software happily because simply said: it does the job. After using Foxit I would not go back to
Acrobat , I like better the connectivity, the simplicity and the way it manages the tabs.
Read full review Return on Investment eSign Genie was the most affordable option of all vendors which helped us to stay within our project budget. We were able to purchase a relatively small number of document folders which was more appropriate to our needs than say DocuSign which required something like 1,000 documents minimum. The ease of use of eSign Genie helps us to implement new research studies without having to expend a lot of person hours to set things up. Read full review We have cut our mailed AR by over 60% by exporting to foxit and emailing. We have cleared an entire room to be used as additional office space by scanning in old documents. The feature that allows you to directly type onto PDFs has increased our quality control by allowing us to highlight or add notes to important info. Read full review ScreenShots
