Overall Satisfaction with PDFelement

My husband and I are semi-retired and provide consulting services for small businesses and individuals. We both had previously used Adobe Acrobat Pro for years at our previous organizations. We required a PDF editor that would have less of a learning curve for our clients, one that was less expensive and yet had the same features as the Pro version of Acrobat. After some research and after reading several reviews online, I chose PDFelement. It addresses all of our needs and our clients' needs, such as the automatic creation of fill-in forms, the ability to edit, comment, and digitally sign documents, and it offers security options.
  • PDFelement provides the same powerful features as Adobe Acrobat, but the interface is easy to learn and use. The product is extremely intuitive, which saves our clients from becoming frustrated as they learn the product.
  • PDFelement Pro's ability to create fillable forms with the click of one button is one of our clients favorite features. I was impressed at how accurately PDFelement performed this task and the ease with which these fields can be edited, if needed.
  • Security is more important than ever these days and PDFelement provides the encryption and permissions to protect documents quickly and easily. I especially like the batch encrypt feature, this makes it easy to protect multiple files with the same password.
  • PDFelement makes it easy to extract the data from form fields. This is a huge plus for our clients.
  • I have not been able to find a feature to straighten scanned-in documents to align them perfectly on the page if they are a bit crooked. If this feature exists, I haven't had luck in finding it yet.
  • Since our consulting business is so small, so is the impact; however, this product has met all of our business objectives.
PDFelement has all of the most important features of Adobe Acrobat Pro that I previously used while at my organization. I selected PDFelement for this reason and it appears that the online reviewers had the same to say about this product. It was important to me to select a product that was available for both Windows and the Mac.
PDFelement Pro is well suited for all of our needs and our clients' needs. I bought the Windows version and liked it so much that I purchased the Mac version at the discount that I was offered at checkout. It performs well and is easy to learn and use. Companies could save so much money by using PDFelement instead of Adobe Acrobat Standard/Pro.
