Overall Satisfaction with Adobe Acrobat DC

Acrobat is the go-to program for pdfs. We have a great many designers and web content creators that rely on Acrobat daily. The main thing that Acrobat addresses is it's universal and ubiquitous, we can deploy it and not have to worry about PDFs appearing differently for different users.

Pros

  • Open any PDF
  • It's consistent
  • I don't have to worry about it being out of date

Cons

  • It's a bit large.
  • It's could use less resources, but really it's not bad.
  • Ease of deployment.
  • Consistency across devices/platforms
  • Cost
  • Low-cost or free versions have a great ROI. Anyone can download the basic reader for nothing.
  • Time saved is great ROI v. just the time it took to deploy.
It works as advertised, from phone to desktop to laptop, and everything looks as expected. Mission accomplished Adobe.
We have not had any issues with Adobe security whether in practice or brought up during an audit. Adobe responds in a timely manner to anything that has come up in the larger sense. I'm not worried about Adobe particularly.
  • Foxit PDF Editor (FoxitPhantom)
We have tried Foxit reader as well. The UI is not as good as Acrobat, I base this on feedback from users. People like the familiarity and ease of finding the right options that Adobe offers. Foxit isn't a bad program, but the menu system can be a bit too much like MS's more interesting office choices.

Do you think Adobe Acrobat delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Adobe Acrobat's feature set?

Yes

Did Adobe Acrobat live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Adobe Acrobat go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Adobe Acrobat again?

Yes

Acrobat is very well suited for use when you have a large group of people who need to look at the same file for the purposes of content creation and marketing. There are other pdf apps out there, but consistency is key when the file contains graphics and particular formatting. That shouldn't be an issue with a pdf, but having seen some of the other offerings and other apps open pdfs, it can be.
