Likelihood to Recommend As per my knowledge and experience, Small PDF is well suited when we want to convert the large and bulk processing on the images to convert them into a single file and share. I found it well suited for college students because daily they scan multiple images and merge them to send as a single assignment file. Smallpdf has the future in the education field. Sometimes it is less appropriate for the people who want to share official documents by converting them into pdf without a watermark. I personally really like the Small PDF, it really helped reduce the difficulty of sending files, and photos to others.

Whenever I need to sign any official document digitally, I use this software. It also helps us to protect our confidential documents with password protection. We add passwords to our confidential documents with the help of this software.

Read full review OCR comes in handy when you need to scan a document image for embedded text for edits. This feature is a common tool but the accuracy of OCR helps for quick edits. Conversion options are a plus and a must-have when you need to convert between Microsoft Office and PDF. During the pandemic, the ability to offer digital signing with personalized signatures is a major plus. Glad to have this tool available when needed. Read full review Cons It has everything I'm not sure what I will say. E-sign, Share, convert. You can give an option in upload priorities features which I can see later. Background remover thing also you can add in it. So I can remove the unnecessary thing from an image. You can add a chatbot for help. Read full review After the edit when I see my documents in full screen view, I find the header of my documents blocked by editing tools. Its Url to PDF creator doesn't work well. It does not have mobile application for PDF editing Read full review Usability I give this rating to Smallpdf because it comes with a large array of tools and gadgets. It allows not only pdf reading but also mixing, splitting, conversion to and from pdf, pdf compression or protecting. It is really complete and it works excellent compared to other much more expensive alternatives in the market.

Read full review Support Rating Everything is so simple and works so well, you shouldn't need support, but on the one occasion in several years that I needed it, support was quick and courteous.
Read full review Alternatives Considered I think that Smallpdf stacks up against its competitors in terms of easiness of use. The tool is very user-friendly, every feature is communicated in an efficient way and very simple to user so the user doesn't have to be particularly good at using software. Its features are superficial when compared to
Acrobat but easiest to use for sure.
Read full review I tried
Smallpdf for sometime. It is also a very good tool for pdf related tasks but it doesn't provide a comprehensive functionality to edit a pdf document. I couldn't modify the text of my pdf documents in
Smallpdf . But SodaPDF gives me the functionality to edit/change the text of my pdf documents. So I shifted from
Smallpdf to this software.
Read full review Return on Investment It has definitely increased efficiency. Lower paid employees can complete a simple task with Smallpdf rather than having a higher paid employee use their time to do it differently. Smallpdf decreases the customer-response time. Being able to send over the proper sized file quickly makes us look great! Read full review A recent project came across my desk where we had to recreate static files into editable word documents. Thank goodness for the OCR feature. It made for an almost flawless conversion. Minor edit here and there, no fault of the program. It was more due to the file quality of the original scan. Saved me time. The feedback option is another plus: The review/comment function is great for easily getting document feedback. We just started using this feature. Another time-saver. Document management due to file conversion options makes it easier to keep documents all in one place. Also, the ability to share these documents with coworkers is a major plus!
