Overall Satisfaction with Kofax Power PDF (formerly Nuance)

Kofax is utilized to edit PDF documents and make them searchable. It is also utilized to convert documents from a PDF to other formats.
  • Making PDF documents searchable.
  • Converting documents into other formats.
  • Typewriter Tool is very handy.
  • Being able to redact is extremely helpful.
  • Taking forms and being able to create checkboxes is helpful.
  • Converting documents to other formats has its challenges. It seems like text boxes are utilized when converting PDFs to Word documents.
  • It can't be used for documents being filed in the courts.
It's very easy to use and I appreciate being able to redact documents for security purposes and create forms when having to prepare applications.
We haven't really utilized Adobe compared to Kofax. Our IT company recommended Kofax because they felt the PDF conversion to other formats was better.
It's just easy to use.

Kofax is perfect for us to store our files electronically. We can scan documents to a PDF and then use Kofax to make those searchable which is helpful when we are trying to search a document for specific items. It's also very helpful when you are trying to redact a document to provide to other parties, but need to omit some information. Unfortunately, if you are filing something with the courts, they only allow PDFs that are processed through Adobe.

Using Kofax Power PDF (formerly Nuance)

We give this rating because the Courts will only allow Adobe documents. I also find that converting PDFs to Word documents sometimes create text boxes when converted, which makes it difficult to format.
