Overall Satisfaction with Adobe Acrobat DC

Reigning champ of PDF editors. We use for document creation, creating digital PDF forms (that users can fill-out electronically), editing and converting existing documents. Most of our administrative and content creation and management staff use it. Works great on PC and Mac products. Adobe saves in many formats and can cover just as many. Ability to save to cloud if desired.

  • Editable form creation
  • consistency of file types
  • clean interface
  • Includes bloatware
  • Extra software installs that are not articulated clearly
  • contract cycles can be frustrating
  • subscription model
  • PDF creation
  • PDF forms
  • improved user experience
  • organization
  • shared digital standards
It works great on PC and Mac. Start devices are questionable and limited. Smart devices seemingly require constant updates.
Thus far it is security compliant. Although, I am not sure how much of that is customer outward, it seems that much more security measures are for piracy of software, as signing in and internet connection is required. As well there are sub or additional pieces of software on PC/MacOS that are necessary from Adobes point of view to use software.
Adobe is the industry standard. The learning curve for inward and outward users was much easier. We are an education based organization, so our documents need to be reliable and compliant for safety and accessibility measures.

Well suited for document creation, editing, reformatting and sharing. Simple user interface, easy user based installation. Works great on MacOS and PC. Does not work on chromebooks, smart devices are limited experiences. It can be a challenging at times if no internet connection is present, as it signs out occasionally. Its is great for larger companies, education, medical and more. There are many simple free versions out there that might be better budget conscious individual users.
