Use Cases and Deployment Scope
I use it to create and modify PDF documents. I like the highlighting, erase and adding text functions particularly. I use this mostly in regard to marketing to insurance agents.
Pros and Cons
  • Erases and/or Edits text
  • Adds Images
  • Highlights Key Items
  • Hard to say, it is pretty strong. Maybe more help features.
Likelihood to Recommend
It is a great tool for updating or editing an existing document to make sure it is exactly how you want it to appear. I feel it is a good value, especially for the price.
Return on Investment
  • Electronic Signatures save us time
  • Not having to re-create prior documents from scratch saves us time
Usability
9
It is pretty easy to use, maybe a few more help functions could be of use.
Support Rating

I haven't really used the customer support very much but they were helpful when we had a question about billing.

I find it much easier to use and more user friendly than Adobe Acrobat

Best utility to take your entire office mobile! No need for a printer or scanner (or any scanner apps) if you have PDF filler!

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
I use it for everything. Whenever i need to have a document emailed to me, which needs to be filled out and returned, i cannot be bothered to print it, fill it and then scan it back. PDF filler allows me to not have to travel with a printer or portable scanner. The phone apps that are supposed to work like scanners are abysmal. So, thanks to PDF scanner I am able to travel with just a laptop and not bother with having to use the business centers at hotels.
Pros and Cons
  • signatures look like real wet signatures.
  • copies fonts to make seamless edits
  • matches lines of text
  • autofills dates
  • font matching is pretty good but there are some fonts that dont look seamless
  • run a little bit faster
Likelihood to Recommend
Honestly, everyone should know about PDF filler. But then again, its my little secret, lol. I love the fact that I can make edits to PDF seamlessly and professionally. I also love the fact that the documents i need to fill out, sign and return look great. Not like i printed them and then tried to use a phone scanner to send them back. PDF filler is what allows me to travel without a printer!
Return on Investment
  • not traveling with a printer
  • able to do work a lot faster
  • documents always look very professional
  • all the paperwork i need to fill out is typed, not handwritten into forms which looks much more professional. Almost as if I had an assistant to type out my documents
  • I love the fact that I can make an edit to an existing PDF. I dont have to go back and forth and ask for editable copies of word documents, etc.

its easy for a professional who is used to working with websites, apps, etc, but also, my grandmother could never figure it out.

Long Time PDFfiller Customer/User - HIGHLY Recommend for any sized Business

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
PDFfiller allows me to upload many documents into a single downloadable file. I manage many accounts for our platform and during the onboarding process, there are a lot of digital files that need to be edited, signed, and returned regularly. It allows me to focus more on customer relationships and successful implementations, than on struggling to keep the paperwork in order.
Pros and Cons
  • Upload multiple files
  • Combine Files into a single downloadable file
  • Edits to PDFs and other Docs are simple and effective
  • Stores multiple files for a quick history reference
  • UI is clean and easy to use
  • Allow for multiple users to easily sign in to a single account
  • Better quality digital signatures
  • Customize your own dashboard
Likelihood to Recommend
Anytime I have multiple files I need to edit, sign and return, I use PDFfiller. It saves so much time and effort and the files always look clean. I highly recommend PDFfiller for any business that manages its reports, contracts, agreements, NDAs, HR paperwork, and any other documents that require text entered. It's a great tool that I use every day.
Return on Investment
  • We were able to get a signed agreement for a client that turned into $36,000/yr client
  • Edited a customization Doc and returned to the client with a signature for a $10,000 UI Customization
  • Had two clients sign with us in less than a week that resulted in landing a total of $85,000/yr.
Usability
10
The UI is simple and clean. My elementary school-aged children know how to navigate it without my help. If you have low-level, mid-level, or even C-level employees that are managing documents regularly, it would be foolish not to use PDFfiller to assist your organization clean up data entry. The system basically holds your hand until you can do it on your own. Easily within an hour, any employee could pick it up with no problem.
Support Rating
10
You get to speak to a real person. I have only needed to use this service one time in 5 years and my problem was fixed within a few minutes. They really go above and beyond to support their users and it is a breath of fresh air in the software space.
Alternatives Considered
DocuSign is very limited in my opinion. The software itself is also very clunky and skips around too much for my brain to handle. The UI is also confusing and looks sort of pieced together.

We handle all customer agreements and NDAs. As well as the implementation of our software for Licensed Cannabis Cultivators in the US.

I myself handle all of the PDFfiller support. It is a very easy tool so there's not much I have to do in the role of supporting the usability of the product itself.
Business Processes Supported
  • Quickly Editing and filling out PDF docs
  • Entering Patient information for businesses providing care
  • Combining multiple files into a single document
Innovative Uses
  • Quickly get agreements edited and signed/returned
  • Combine multiple files for patients very quickly
  • Speeding up our onboarding processes
Future Planned Uses
  • Act as the single source for document data entry
  • Provide as an add-on/embedded hyperlink within our platform for our clients
  • Act as a single repository for all of our signed agreements/contracts and NDAs

I will always be a faithful PDFfiller customer. The product has saved me a lot of time over the years and I find a great deal of value in the platform. If I move on to another company someday, PDFfiller will be going with me wherever I go.
Products Replaced
Yes
DocuSign. It was a simple decision as DocuSign is just a very clunky system to use. PDFfiller changed the game for me personally and I'll never look back.
Key Differentiators
  • Price
  • Product Features
  • Product Usability
I hadn't heard of PDFfiller before my trial years ago, but once I started using it regularly, I quickly decided that I needed it as a paying customer. It opened up more features and data storage for me that was a simple fix to a big problem I had at the time. I'm glad I found it and so are my customers!
Evaluation Lessons Learned
Would've never started using DocuSign to begin with! Wish I would've found PDFfiller 10 years ago!
Implementation Rating
10
When I was hired on by my current company I was already a paying customer, so I just brought it with me. Once I showed our President/Founder how simple it was to use for our contracts, agreements, and NDAs, it has been a staple in our company ever since. That was almost 3 years ago. We've closed quicker because of the speed at which we can turn signed docs around.

No
Change Management Lessons
Change management was minimal
Not an issue at all really. Just in the beginning getting my boss to remember to use PDFfiller instead of DocuSign was the biggest hurdle. But he caught on very quickly and we've been using PDFfiller ever since.
Implementation Issues
  • Getting my boss to remember to sign in to PDFfiller
  • Reminding my boss to cancel the DocuSign subscription
  • Resetting my boss' password for him because he never saves or remembers them
Premium Support
No. I haven't had any major issues in over 5 years of using the product regularly. I honestly haven't needed it. The product works great and really is in a class all it's own.
Bug Resolution
No
Exceptional Examples of PDFfiller Support
It was a while ago now. I believe it was an issue with my password or my username, but the situation was handled VERY quickly. I was on the phone for less than 10 minutes if I remember correctly. The customer support agent was super sharp, and friendly and I was back to using it in no time at all.
Easy Tasks
  • Multiple Document Upload
  • Merging Multiple Documents
  • Renaming Documents
  • Auto-populated Date Drag and Drop
Difficult Tasks
  • Textboxes sometimes are a little tricky to get perfect
  • Tabbing over to the next Line or Textbox in a Doc sometimes doesn't work right away
  • The Auto-populated Signature visually could look better
Mobile Interface Availability and Impressions
Yes, but I don't use it
