How Adobe Acrobat Differs From Its Competitors

Security

Haven’t looked into that at all. I suspect that no news is good news!

Security

As someone who works in Pharma, our documents need to be super secure in order to avoid lawsuits or information leaks. Adobe has been amazing in securing our documents and information. I never feel like I have to worry about data breaches or legal issues. It has been a trusted software of mine for …

Security

This has not been an issue for our organization, so I cannot really comment on this.

Security

Seems fairly secure. It would be nice to have more information on how to lock and secure documents to keep from being edited.

Security

I've received locked documents requesting signatures so I know there are security features that would prevent others from tampering with documents

Security

Allows for the use of entrust certificates to prove the validity of the documents which reduces the chance of fraud

Security

Increased security due to not being able to edit pdf after esignature

Security

Adobe Acrobat DC has had a successful impact on our organization. We had a security audit recently and we were praised for protecting our information from data breaches and legal issues thanks to Adobe Acrobat DC.

Security

Compliance is a huge factor in my industry and that's why I use Adobe DC because I can securely password protect my PDF files when sending them out to clients.

Security

Thankfully, we have never experienced any issues with possible data breaches and/or legal issues. I do believe that the compliance standards are great compared to what we are looking for to protect our company and data.

Security

That is very true. However on our side we found it to be too much for our needs (signature on forms). Many users are reluctant to use it for that reason.

Security

We have experienced no issues concerning data breaches or legal issues when using Adobe Acrobat DC. The fact the software complies with security standards and industry-specific regulations provides us the reassurance that it keeps our PDF files as secure as possible. We appreciate that Adobe …

Security

The facility of securing ebooks by adding a layer of passwords is crucial when it comes to confidential documents. Adobe offers sufficient security options in that context.

Security

I am appreciative of the security and safety efforts, which can have an enormous impact on organizations if there is no concern.

Security

The impact has been immense in terms of security and compliance because it's easier for everyone to read policies and adhere to them, and make themselves compliant with them.

Security

I am only aware of the signature securities and the option to use passwords. As a private school, it is important that these measures are in place not only for employees like myself but for students, parents, donors, etc. Keeping confidential information confidential is essential for our …

Security

Till now we have not faced any type of issue for security concern.

Security

Can't edit documents which are locked by Adobe (especially after sign).

Security

I am not the best person to comment on as I have little exposure here. But I can say for certain that this has helped to smooth out a lot of functions in the organization as a whole.

Security

There are many products that can read, print, and even edit PDF documents, but none, not even Microsoft, is as transparent or as quick to provide updates. Nobody's perfect, but everyone else is inadequate in my opinion. Adobe Acrobat DC releases updates consistently and communicates better. …

Security

It seems like Adobe Acrobat DC is a pretty safe program to use. It doesn't seem like it uses much from my computer. I haven't had any issues with data breaches or compliance issues in the last 8 years that I have used it. My favorite security feature of Adobe Acrobat DC is being able to …

Security

It is important for adobe acrobat dc to have these security features and security standards, especially in a company with more than five thousand employees worldwide. It protects the data provided and received through coordination with other clients as well. It does protect everyone from phishing …

Security

The security and compliance have been excellent. I wouldn't change a thing.

Security

I do not really use many of the security features in Adobe Acrobat other than needing to remove securities to edit a document. I do know that passwords can be added to a document to ensure that is secured. Our HR department has used that feature to securely save and send documents.
