Overall Satisfaction with Sejda

We implemented Sejda to replace Adobe, primarily due to some support concerns that our IT staff brought up. It functions solely as a pdf reader, at least the version we use. We receive and use a high quantity of pdf documents, so we need to have the capability to work with them.
  • PDF reader
  • Zoom and scan functions
  • Key word search
  • Our version has no editing or markup capability
  • Does not do a robust job of converting pdf to Word
  • Search is not always reliable or accurate
  • PDF reader
  • Document review
  • Print functionality
  • Filled the gap from our prior pdf product
  • Slightly less capital investment, to my understanding
  • Users have not been happy with the reduced functionality
Adobe has more functionality, but there have been some concerns about ongoing support. Sejda was seen as a viable alternative for the majority of our users, who only need to read pdf documents, and not do any revisions or markups.

Do you think Sejda delivers good value for the price?

Not sure

Are you happy with Sejda's feature set?

No

Did Sejda live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Sejda go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Sejda again?

No

If all that you need is a simple read function for pdf documents, Sejda does fine. If you want to be able to highlight items or convert the pdf document into a Word document for editing and revisions, this tool does not provide strong functionality.
