Overall Satisfaction with Foxit PDF SDK

Each year, our Tour needs to sign 40-50 films to take part in the Tour, and 50-70 independent hosts to present the Tour. Gathering the information for the agreement fields, keeping track of who has signed (and making sure they have completed all mandatory fields), and reminding people who haven't signed, would be a very time consuming. Foxit PDF SDK takes a lot of the hassle out of this! While reminders can be sent manually, I do wish for more control over automated reminders and a record of when reminders were sent. Also, it would be great to be able to associate a specific cover email template with a specific agreement, rather than just a single default template for all emails (at least you can change the template manually.) Foxit PDF SDK is much more convenient than Adobe Sign, which we used before.
  • Ensure that recipients fill out all mandatory fields
  • Track who has signed
  • Template emails
  • Tracking when reminders were sent
  • Automatic reminders - more control
  • Different default templates for different agreements
  • Choice of mandatory and optional fields
  • Notification when an agreement is signed by someone
  • Selection of template emails
  • Lack of control over reminders
  • Lack of tracking when reminders were sent
  • Lack of stipulating different cover emails for different agreements
Adobe Sign can be really frustrating and difficult to log into, renew subscription, and other background functions. Tech support is between useless and non-existent. On the other hand, there is better control over when recipients have been contacted. Overall, Foxit PDF SDK is a much better product, especially for smaller businesses or ones which don't use it consistently every day, year-round (if that's you, you will get used to Adobe, and it will be less annoying.)

Would you buy Foxit PDF SDK again?

Yes

I really like being able to send agreements easily to people, who can then securely sign, but only after filling out the mandatory fields. You can quickly send agreements to people, and they can fill in the required information. If it is important to know when people were reminded, or you have a large number of agreements which need their own cover emails, Foxit PDF SDK can be a bit limiting.
