ConvertAPI Reviews & Product Details

ConvertAPI was super easy to implement allowing my developers to focus on other things core to our product Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Although the cost of ConvertAPI is attractive, it could always be cheaper. We also burned a lot of conversions time on development and testing so it would be nice to have a free trial/developer license to get started. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Their API converted our PDFs to Powerpoint very accurately except for the fonts, and it was pretty easy to integrate with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Customer support did not respond to multiple reach-outs between May 27 and June 11, and they now appear to have stopped replying to me completely.

The only issue we had with their service was that the fonts embedded in our PDFs were not being used in the converted Powerpoint. I was told that normally you have to pay 300 EUR a month (a much higher plan than we otherwise need) to upload fonts, but that in my case they would add our two fonts on their "next system update" This was on May 27th. I continued to follow-up for the next two weeks asking for updates and got no responses. Finally on June 11, I was just told it would be installed on their "next system update" but that they couldn't give me any ETA. I pressed them on this because we are a software company trying to launch a feature, and needed some idea of the time frame. And so far I've gotten zero responses back from their support team.

Now we are probably going to have to switch to a different service. I would have rather they just told me "no" originally, as we've now wasted time integrating with their service and will have to rip it out and start over. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Their support team is just a blast - they respond quickly and have always solve my problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing really. As I said - they try to answer all of your questions quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Implementing the API in our software was straightforward. Setting up the JSON request, calling the API, download the result. That was all to use ConvertAPI to convert files from PDF to JPG. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing really. Converting from CSV to Excel could be improved by adding extra parameter to allow decimal comma in numeric fields. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This site can convert the API of any type of file for any type of framework that makes our work easier than before. so it is the best site for convert API I ever used. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is paid after a certain period of use, I do not like that. because we can make it free forever or we can make it paid after a certain period of time. I do not like this part of it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ConvertAPI service is a company that specializes in helping businesses convert data into various formats, including PDFs which we use. They have access to the latest technology and are experts in the field of data conversion.

One of the main benefits of an API service provider is that they are experts in their field because they have special training for a specific type of task. The ConvertAPI PDF export API is an example of this - they can convert almost any type of file from one format to another. We use the pre-paid plan, which allows you to use credits for using the service at any rate you need and not have to worry about fluctuations in usage. E.g., we are not charged a monthly premium when the service is not used.

The resulting PDF files are accurate to the source, and the API allows an easy connection and retrieval of the file. Support is very often quick to respond in the rare case of an issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

On rare occasions we had problems with getting a response from the service but support was quick to respond and followed up. It would be good to have more options in the statistics and reporting part of the control panel. Given the amount of data collected, there are many opportunities for reports to be generated and analyzed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In 3 words: It just works and keeps on working ;)

We use it in a Zapier complex automation loop to convert Google Docs and an invoice to PDF among other things.

Finding a solution that requires little to no setup, works time after time and is reasonably priced is pretty tough - and I should know, I tested more than 5 solutions before finding ConvertAPI.

The one time that I had questions, support was responsive and gave me a correct answer so for the time being, I'm happy in that area as well... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing so far per say.

The only area of improvement that I could even nitpick around and this is being overly critical is the fact that conversion times vary somewhat at times and it would be easier to predict budget if they were truly the same each time for the same types and sized documents.

I love the ability to get just pure text from a PDF! It may be my favorite thing about the app! While I did not use the watermark feature at all, I know another member of the team used it frequently for media purposes such as electronic posters and powerpoint presentations.

It's not so much that I dislike it, but I do wish that I could take a PowerPoint presentation and extract text from it. Also I do think that it would be beneficial to have a more thorough and user friendly demo area where users could play around with the various tools that ConvertAPI has.

We use ConvertAPI for over a year now, and we are happy with their service. The best part is they are adding more converters over time and increasing performance resulting in bill savings :)

ConvertAPI support responds fast and always with a good solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is nothing to dislike about ConverAPI :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

ConvertAPI has been a reliable service for converting even legacy Word Document files to PDF. ConvertAPI has also been helpful in re-exporting PDF files with unexpected password protection metadata when the document is already accessible. Their integration libraries make development more straightforward too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Could improve documentation on error states in their integration libraries. Also, customer support resent links to their existing libraries and Github issues instead of helping debug our particular problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
