Just as good if not better than the Adobe product line with less cost. We needed a PDF writer and editor. Tungsten Power PDF allowed us the same functionality at a fraction of the cost. We thought it was worth trying and it was definitely a great choice for our business needs. I recommend trying it. It was well worth it for us!

Power PDF - it allows you to edit PDFs
Adobe is overly expensive.

A Full Function Time Saving Tool
Similar functionality, easier to use, less expensive.

Best alternative solution ever!
Low cost with similar function

Tungsten Power PDF Advanced.
Ease of use, dependability, local access without the need for an online connection or subscription, and general familiarity of the software after years of use. Nitro is difficult to use, never works right, and jumbles files where it is hard to find what you are working on. Adobe requires an online account.

Tungsten Power PDF: A Great PDF Tool
Tungsten Power PDF is easier to use and more user friendly than Adobe Acrobat. Most versions of Adobe Acrobat either do not have all of the features that Tungsten Power PDF has, or charge a fee/premium for licensing. Tungsten Power PDF integrates all of these features into one platform.

ease of use, cost savings, intuitive interface

super editing features with top price
- Foxit PDF Editor (FoxitPhantom) and Adobe Acrobat
against adobe acribat, Tungsten Power PDF is cheaper, i can buy once and use many, with acrobat i have to do a subscription and pay every year. it is a big plus for Tungsten Power PDF. foxit is not bad, but is missing some features, and is not as intuitive as power pdf from kofax (or Tungsten Power PDF)

Kofax hands down winner over other paid PDF programs!
In my opinion, humble as it may be, Kofax has lots of power, an easier learning curve, and obviously a better price for the standalone Adobe or the monthly Adobe. SodaPDF (at the time cheaper than Nuance/Kofax) did not perform to expectations and left me wishing for Nuance PDF (now Kofax) to return. I ultimately returned SodaPDF, requested a refund, and immediately upgraded to the latest Nuance (Kofax) at the time.

PDF nightmares? Power PDF can solve them.
Adobe Acrobat has become a bit like a chameleon, as it is a multi-generation product that lost its identity. Power PDF needs to pay attention to this point, as the product is evolving and could be a too rich-featured product, therefore a bit too complex to use for a regular user.

Kofax, a good PDF Option
- Adobe Acrobat and Foxit PDF Editor (FoxitPhantom)
We have had instances where we've used the other two products. Adobe did not offer a one time payment at the time so we did not go with that one. Most users currently use Foxit. I would not say that Foxit nor Kofax really beat each other out, some prefer one or the other based on when they started using it.

Kofax Power PDF has been a great addtion for our company
We were using an older version of Nuance before upgrading to Kofax Power PDF. We did some research on some of the other PDF options out there. Ultimately, our deciding factor was to stay with the same company. We were really pleased with the Nuance versions and we are impressed with the Kofax version.

Adobe Acrobat and Nuance Power PDF, which is the core of Kofax Power PDF. Kofax Power PDF generally performs as well Acrobat, without the high price.

Kofax Power PDF Review
Adobe Acrobat Professional. I prefer the Kofax Power PDF Product, but as I advised above, because I use LEAP, I have to use Adobe Acrobat Professional

Kofax Power PDF Review
The worst part of the Adobe product is you have to pay monthly. I think, the second problem is their interface sucks. John Warnock would be turning in his grave.

Adobe - but too long ago to compare it to anything Adobe does today.

I used PDFelement. It has an intuitive interface but I found Kofax to be more professional and productive.

Kofax Power PDF Review
I have used (and still use) Adobe Acrobat (also named Acrobat DC) with customer computer. The use is fairly identical in function and use. Based on price model I prefer to pay a one time fee for Kofax Power PDF over monthly payment for Adobe.

Adobe, Preview. Similar experience.

Kofax Power PDF Review
Adobe Editor - Much more complex that Kofax Power PDF. Free online PDF - Kofax Power PDF is more powerful and makes things easier to do.

Kofax Power PDF Review.
Cute PDF, Free Adobe Acrobat. Cute PDF does not have all the features of Kofax. Adobe is all online, which in our countryside environment is slow. Having all the processing locally is much faster in our situation.
