## Xodo Reviews
  ### 1. Xodo PDF Studio is a top PDF editor

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Aron K. | Tech Writer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 24, 2025

**What do you like best about Xodo?**

First, Xodo PDF Studio is a simple PDF editor. There is no learning curve at all, so you can master this PDF software pretty fast.

Second, I found that it has advanced PDF reader and editor functions. It's clearly among the more advanced PDF editors I tested so far.

Furthermore, it offers affordable pricing, especially for teams with more than 20 seats, as they receive an additional 15% discount.

Moreover, I wanted to highlight the redaction tool, as it was quite useful during my Xodo PDF editor review, and many other software do not offer this.

Lastly, it is great that there is a cross-platform usage on Web, iOS, Android, Windows, macOS, and Linux, even if this is included in the Document Suite plan.

**What do you dislike about Xodo?**

The user interface seemed a bit old-fashioned to me

**What problems is Xodo solving and how is that benefiting you?**

PDF reading and editing.  It is a straightforward PDF editor, and you can use it without a steep learning curve.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Events Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 12, 2024

**What do you like best about Xodo?**

I use Xodo to manage schedules and documents related to event organization. What I like most is that from the first glance at the main dashboard, I have all the tools I need to annotate, highlight and edit PDF documents quickly. Xodo is perfect for converting PDF-to-XLSX format directly from the application, and it also allows me to rearrange and adapt tables and data for use in presentations or sharing with colleagues.

**What do you dislike about Xodo?**

Xodo fulfills what I need in my working days. It's intuitive, functional and comprehensive, each tool seems to be designed with users in mind who are looking to accomplish more with less time.

**What problems is Xodo solving and how is that benefiting you?**

  ### 3. Super easy to use!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Denise L. | Freelance Graphic Designer and Copywriter, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 08, 2023

**What do you like best about Xodo?**

Xodo is one of the better pdf readers/signers I've ever used and the fact it has so many wonderful features like managing pdfs, compressing pdfs and converting pdfs into different file types all for free is amazing to me

**What do you dislike about Xodo?**

I don't think there is anything in particular I dislike about xodo. I've been using it for years and years and I can safely say it's definitely one of the more intuitive apps I've used

**What problems is Xodo solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It's helping me easily read and sign documents super easily and be able to secure my pdf files using passwords. It makes my day to day tasks a lot more simple so I appreciate it

  ### 4. Best PDF Editor (I've given too many a fair trial before this)

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Brent F. | Flooring Specialist, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 09, 2023

**What do you like best about Xodo?**

I'll keep my favorite parts of Xodo to a few items. 

The annotation tools are my first pick because I use Xodo to study large PDFs. They offer more annotations than others and are very simple to use, especially if using a keyboard for shortcuts. With those, you press one key instead of clicking through menus. You can also set multiple styles presets for your highlighter, underline, etc. Swapping colors is one simple click. Xodo then keeps track of all your annotations in a sidebar list. No need to bookmark them or create a document while you're reading to keep track of them. It's an automatic, simple-to-use review. 

Xodo is truely cross paltform. You're not locked into a walled garden with Xodo, where you must choose what device to use. I have an Android phone, a Chromebook, and Windows PC, and an iPad mini. It's simple to use on every single platform. Not only do they have apps, but their site is a PWA you can download.

Cloud saves. I use Xodo Drive for some of my documents, but if you don't want to use that, you can have Xodo open directly from Drive or other cloud platforms and save it that way.

**What do you dislike about Xodo?**

It took me a minute to figure out how to save documents. It isn't a big deal once you learn how to do it, but I wish there was something in the app that explained it better before I lost a few saves. I didn't read any other reviews about this difficulty, so it could have been entirely on me.

**What problems is Xodo solving and how is that benefiting you?**

When studying ebooks, I can open them on any device, anywhere. I can easily annotate them, and it automatically tracks my annotations for me to review. This saves so much time than how I used to do things where I had to type everything as I read important things or scroll through entire documents to collect highlights or underlines. The annotations also input smoothly, it's hard to explain what I mean by that, but if you've used other PDF readers, you probably know what I mean.

  ### 5. BEST PDF EDITING APPLICATION

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** VIMAL S. | Data Analyst, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 17, 2023

**What do you like best about Xodo?**

vvvvvvvvvvuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

**What do you dislike about Xodo?**

In the new version of the Xodo mobile application, there are some problems like page rendering, open pdf errors, I want the developer team to update it soon, and we will get a new update soon.

**What problems is Xodo solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I did this a lot with you because of the fear of BTech. I used to convert my hard-copy notes to soft-copy notes with this app. Cropping the page and scanning the page is very easy in this app. You will not have any problem rendering the page; it will take less time. In this, you also get the option to convert the file, which solves many of your problems and saves time. In this, you get all the full features for free. Only a few features are available in the Pro version.
It also gives us the option of backup which is quite useful.

  ### 6. The Best PDF annotation tool that works on all platforms

There is an occasional stutter when using Apple Pencil.

**What problems is Xodo solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I needed a PDF editor and annotation tool that I can use with a stylus to write handwritten notes that I gather from job sites. Xodo's annotation feature allows me to easily annotate PDFs without the clutter of too many unnecessary features.

  ### 7. Xodo Review

  ### 8. A better view for PDF

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Rishikesh K. | Associate I , Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 17, 2022

**What do you like best about Xodo?**

It has the feature to switch to different viewing modes (Horizontal Scroll, Vertical Scroll, Reading Mode, etc.). Its word search is faster than other apps. Also, you can track how many pages and words have been scanned.

**What do you dislike about Xodo?**

Edit assumes the PDF page as an Image, not editing the original text in the PDF. It can be improved using OCR readers, which can capture text in the Image as well as PDF.

**What problems is Xodo solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I mostly use XODO to add new PDF pages and edit pages using the edit feature. Using the Search and Scroll feature helped me save a lot of time. Its Reading mode is also handy.

There is nothing to complain about this software. Everything just works smoothly. The paid version has more cool features but the free version is also fine. No complaints.

Xodo can be used to view, edit pdf, merge files into a single file, annotating, and sign documents is also possible. Reading modes are soothing & many color modes to select from.

The main problem Xodo helps me solve is a massive stack of papers, as I can now keep documents digitally but still mark them up with a pen.

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Mitali K. | Editor, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 20, 2021

**What do you like best about Xodo?**

Most of premium features for annotating a pdf file are free on Xodo. I can play with a lot more creative options than just highlighting my text or adding text. There are options to use wriggly underlines, strikethrough, different highlighter tool preferences. The lasso tool helps me take control of all my edits and selectively modify any section of the page without having to affect the entire annotations.

**What do you dislike about Xodo?**

There is a problem with the buttons. I cannot annotate in reading mode, which in itself is very troubling. Even if it does not support annotations in this mode, whenever I try to change the type from 'view' to 'annotate', the reading mode does note turn off on its own. This makes things less smooth and interrupting when I have to close it manually.

**What problems is Xodo solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Xodo is helping me review and edit a lot of PDF files everyday. I am able to record all my feedback and notes there in the file only which is very easier to work with whenever I need to look back.

It has a really simple interface, it has its own file manager integrated to search the PDF, it has a lot of options such as leaving the screen always on and drawing with pencil instead of with your fingers, it's undoubtedly the best, 100% recommended.

**What do you like best about Xodo?**

It is quite useful, the application is the best PDF reader and is simple to use. It allows to open up to 3 files at the same time and has the option to underline or highlight text. 

**What do you dislike about Xodo?**

Sometimes the application is closed and when you open it again, you lose what has been edited without the possibility of recovering it. It allows you to insert images and photos but they cannot be rotated or flipped. 

**What problems is Xodo solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It's perfect. You can automatically cut the edges of the sheets so you can view PDFs comfortably. In addition, the colors are adjustable so that the view doesn't get so tired.

Save often, in case something crashes.
