"Fast, Reliable Acrobat with a Simple Interface and Helpful AI Summaries"
5/5
What do you like best about Adobe Acrobat?

Acrobat has been very helpful to me since 2006, it is widely available for almost all the OS - be it 32 or 64 bit. The option available are very helpful and the best part is the software is very fast to and reliable.

It's interface is very simple yet very appealing till date. You open as many as possible documents and work together with no issue.

In my knowledge I have had many readers in experience, but none was such super fine. Moreover, it can share meta data as well about the files I have opened and the pricing according to me is very much on point.

Adding to it is the ease in installation of the same software/application, you can easily install it and get start to work in very minimal time. And if gets any issue you can easily reinstall and get back at the same place where it all started to happen.

Lastly, I am really enjoying the AI feature offered. It helps me to near perfection as I was able to understand and extract the pinpoints of a 1200 page in no more than mins. Its summaries very well and can even get to the exact same point where the entire meaning changes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Adobe Acrobat?

Till date I am not sure and have never heard from anyone on Acrobat Reader's integration options. Also, never have received any insights or you can say hidden features available which can overall impact it's productivity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"My Daily Driver for Merging Files and Eliminating Paperwork"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Adobe Acrobat?

I love how it handles 'Organize Pages.' I’m constantly having to merge spreadsheets, Word docs, and photos into a single pitch deck for clients. Being able to drag and drop pages, rotate them, and delete fluff without leaving the app is a massive time-saver. Plus, the 'Fill & Sign' feature has basically made my physical scanner obsolete; I can get a contract signed and sent back in under two minutes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Adobe Acrobat?

The subscription cost is definitely on the higher side, especially for smaller teams or freelancers. The app can also be a bit of a “resource hog” on my computer if I have a large PDF open (50+ pages), I notice my laptop fans kick in and other apps may slow down a bit.

"Easy-to-Use PDF Viewer & Editor with One-Tap Signatures"
4/5
What do you like best about Adobe Acrobat?

Top most used any device PDF viewer and editor, can add signatures in 1 tap. User interface is easy to access.

I haven't used any integrations yet part yet but there are other integrations available. Integrations are not the key part here. Integration was smooth.

Performance is smooth and would be better if it doesn't keep asking for premium plan subscription.

Support and onboarding is slightly but pushy to buy a plan.

AI Bot works fine but is available for paid plans only. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Adobe Acrobat?

Too pushy on the UI UX where it asks to upgrade for paid plan every time.

Integrations are not too good or useful however, works fine.

Performance is well not the best I expect. Pricing is expensive for a person like me who don't only work on Adobe acrobat. Support is only available Sunday 4:30pm–Friday 5:30pm PT. No 24 by 7. AI is fine but not the best model yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"All-in-One PDF Editing and Document Management That Boosts Productivity"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Adobe Acrobat?

What I like most about Adobe Acrobat is its comprehensive PDF editing and document management capabilities. It allows me to create, edit, organize, sign, and share PDF documents from a single application, making document workflows much more efficient. Powerful PDF editing without converting files to another format. Easy conversion between PDF, Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Fillable forms and electronic signature support. OCR (Optical Character Recognition) for scanned documents. Password protection and document security features. For me, the most valuable feature is the ability to edit PDFs directly. Instead of recreating documents or using multiple tools, I can quickly update text, images, and layouts while preserving the original formatting. The biggest benefit is productivity. Adobe Acrobat simplifies document management, reduces manual effort, and makes it easy to collaborate, review, and securely share PDF files for both personal and professional use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Adobe Acrobat?

The biggest drawback is the pricing. Adobe Acrobat offers an excellent set of features, but the subscription model may not be cost-effective for users who only need basic PDF editing from time to time. Many useful features are locked behind the paid version. The interface can be overwhelming because of the large number of tools and menus. Large PDF files with many images or pages can sometimes take longer to open and edit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Reliable PDF Solution for Secure Document Management"
5/5
What do you like best about Adobe Acrobat?

I really like Adobe Acrobat because it’s something I can count on. It has a lot of features that make working with PDF files simple and convenient. I can create PDFs, edit existing ones, combine multiple files, reduce file size, add my signature, and keep everything secure all in one place. The program is easy to use, and the online signing feature saves me a lot of time when I need to get documents approved. Adobe Acrobat also works well on both my computer and my phone, so I can access my documents from anywhere. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Adobe Acrobat?

I don’t like Adobe Acrobat because it can feel really slow on computers. The cost of using Adobe Acrobat is also very high, whether you own a business or you’re just using it on your own. Sometimes it’s hard to find the more advanced things Adobe Acrobat can do, and the menus aren’t always easy to navigate. When I have big PDF files, it takes a long time for Adobe Acrobat to open them or do anything with them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Adobe Acrobat?

Adobe Acrobat streamlines PDF workflows with intuitive editing, conversion, OCR, and e-sign tools. Seamless integrations, reliable performance, and AI-powered summaries enhance productivity, making document management faster, more efficient, and highly convenient for everyday professional use.

What do you dislike about Adobe Acrobat?

Adobe Acrobat can feel heavy and resource-intensive, especially with large files, leading to occasional slowdowns. The pricing is relatively high compared to alternatives, which may not suit occasional users. Some advanced features are buried in menus, impacting usability. Additionally, AI features, while promising, can be inconsistent and need better accuracy and contextual understanding. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Adobe Acrobat?

It has great editing features within the software, has AI assistance and character recognition built in it. I trust the Adobe name because it has been around since a long time.

Sometimes the features I really want to use, like editing, are hidden behind a paywall. I’d prefer it if a few more of these features were available for free. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Reliable, Feature-Rich PDF Workflows with Seamless Conversion and Collaboration"
4/5
What do you like best about Adobe Acrobat?

What I like best about Adobe Acrobat is its reliability and comprehensive feature set for handling PDFs in a professional environment. The interface is intuitive, making it easy to create, edit, merge, and organize documents without a steep learning curve. One of the most helpful features for me is the ability to quickly convert files (like Word or Excel) into high-quality PDFs and vice versa without losing formatting.

The commenting and annotation tools significantly improve collaboration, especially when reviewing documents with teams. I also find the e-signature feature extremely valuable, as it eliminates the need for printing and scanning, saving a lot of time. The integration with cloud services allows seamless access and sharing across devices, which enhances productivity when working remotely.

Performance-wise, Acrobat handles large files smoothly, and the OCR (optical character recognition) feature is very useful for converting scanned documents into editable and searchable text. From a ROI perspective, it reduces manual work and speeds up document workflows. Additionally, Adobe’s continuous updates and AI-powered features, like smart suggestions and auto-fill, add further efficiency to daily tasks.

Overall, it has streamlined my document management process and made collaboration faster and more organized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Adobe Acrobat?

One of the main downsides of Adobe Acrobat is its pricing, which can feel relatively high compared to alternative PDF tools, especially for individual users or small teams. While the feature set is strong, many advanced capabilities are locked behind premium plans, which impacts overall ROI for lighter use cases.

From a performance standpoint, the application can sometimes feel heavy, particularly when opening very large files or running multiple tools at once. Occasional lag and high memory usage can slow down workflows, especially on mid-range systems.

The UI, although feature-rich, can be slightly overwhelming for new users. Some commonly used tools are buried within menus, making navigation less intuitive than it could be. Streamlining the interface or offering more customization options would improve usability.

Integration-wise, while cloud syncing works well, deeper and smoother integrations with third-party tools could enhance productivity further. Additionally, the AI features, though promising, are still evolving and can sometimes feel inconsistent in accuracy.

Lastly, customer support and onboarding resources could be more responsive and personalized, especially for users facing technical issues or needing guidance on advanced features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
