Pros from Real Users

Pros

  • Finding a decent PDF converter is hard as there are so many scammers out there. I have been able to amend, edit and process all the required PDF documents I needed using PDF extra without any issues or restrictions. It is truly an amazing resource and very user friendly. I can highly recommend this to anyone searching for a valuable resource to work with.
  • Easy to use and able to manage my documents good enough from the work that I needed for, with simple edits.
  • I like that I can use PDF Extra at work. It really helps to fill and edit documents with ease. The navigation is user friendly.
  • The ability to edit PDF’s on the fly from my phone. Then accessing the file remotely from online storage. There were some hiccups in the beginning, but I like using PDF Extra.
  • All of it, easy to use, quick to set-up and more functions than the free adobe but also a great alternative to the paid for version also.
  • I like the edit feature of Pdf because sometimes when your just filling in it only takes a certain size font and you can't change it to make everything fit but with the edit feature you can just add something like a text box and that way you can control the font and make sure everything fits on the line of a pre-filled document.
  • User-friendly is a huge PLUS as well as all the features. I have not explored them all yet. But so far I love working with it. My job is a remote position and I love the Stamps and Digital Signatures, as well as creating a Form. I am constantly having to create a form as I am in the Medical Administrative Field and PDF X makes it very easy and less time-consuming, which is a HUGE PLUS when a New Form is needed. And even if you have to Update an old form. Scan it, PDF X will recognize the text and you can RECREATE a brand new form that looks a lot more Professional. My next form will be using the QR feature to take payments. Scan the QR Code on your Statement and pay your bill!! I am almost finished with it. Can't wait until my Patients See this feature!!
  • Easy to use across devices, has almost unlimited functions, is simple and straightforward, and works fast.
  • I was able to use and edit pdfs on my phone and laptop without having to download the file each time I needed to switch between platforms.
  • The software is very easy to understand and use. Great for creating and editing. The document lock or security is highly recommended and useful.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Some of the functions that work are great, like merging documents, editing and other things that you cant do with a just a reader.
  • Interface very user friendly, easy installation and use. Very fast in getting the results after upload.
  • I much prefer Soda for its ease of use and great features. Customer support has been pretty good so far.
  • I have nothing to say but it has been a horrible experience dealing with this company. I regret ever using, if any, this software.
  • The representative I dealt with was professional and most respectful. I very much appreciate her attitude and help in settling my billing questions.

Cons

  • Most of the functions that were supposed to be included with the premium version have never worked, and it is so hard to get to customer service it's almost not worth it.
  • I tried it on several documents and the results were not satisfactory. I cancelled my account.
  • Sadly there is one missing feature that is crucial to me that I can only get on ABBYY PDF software or I would only use Soda since I find ABBYY not easy to use. But I require an OCR reader that will read Hebrew and allow me to copy Hebrew into other documents without turning it to something strange. If you ever got this fixed, I would definitely be a totally loyal fan.
  • Repeated issues with the software, poor customer support (none almost). Constantly re-installing the software, not working.
  • After everything is settled I believe it was a simple matter of misunderstanding.
