Overall Satisfaction with Kofax Power PDF

We use it as an alternative to having to use Adobe Acrobat Pro and thus be obligated to pay yearly license renewal fees!
  • Provide a streamlined method to work with and simultaneously archive pdf documents
  • Allow one to convert pdf documents using multiple connectors to documents archives
  • Work with scanned documents
  • Provides a method t use batch files for future automation
  • The methods to locate ongoing fixes to the software are cumbersome
  • Security features are difficult for a non-expert IT professional to implement
  • Great cost savings alternative to Adobe Professional
  • Time savings in software management and licensing
I think its fairly easy to use. But it does have a somewhat steep learning curve. In my opinion, the graphic interfaces could use more tailoring to minimize the complexity level.
For us a much cheaper alternative and easier to maintain
Our experience is with tech support team during upgrade/maintenance &/or licensing

I like the ability to work with archive of pdf documents within the context of using SharePoint, OneDrive, Google Drive, DropBox, etc. I also like the automation features and ability to watch/monitor folder archives etc.
I think it's very appropriate for a limited user group (or department) of IT professionals allowing the facility to avoid the cumbersome aspects of Adobe corporate licensing and obligation to pay yearly licensing fees In my opinion, probably less appropriate in situations where users are not too experienced in deciphering more intricate operating environments
