## GorillaPDF Reviews
  ### 1. The Wide View for PDF files

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Smriti A. | Quality Analyst, Information Technology and Services, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 22, 2023

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

In Gorilla PDF, the best part is that it's a web-based PDF editor, so it does not block the user from installing the app on their device. I believe a web-based PDF editor responds to users more quickly. Despite the fact that you can convert a variety of formats to PDF, such as word, excel, JPG, and PPT. That it won't ask you for any charges. This application can serve small, midsize, and large. Additionally, it is available in different languages, making it easier to use. Also providing the option for merging, encrypting the PDF files for the user safety. Even though we have the option of PDF readers which make it extra ordinary from other apps in the market.

**What do you dislike about GorillaPDF?**

My understanding is that there is no need to dislike something, but it would be great if we could incorporate a conversion option from PDF to different formats that are heavily used in the marlet. It would be great if we could add the ability to edit the PDF files. If we can add the option of converting it to zip files and compressing it. These are few very demanding facilities in the market from the users.

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

Quick responsd is one of the thing that Gorilla PDF has solved for me. Being able to convert the multiple files into the PDF and able to print in good quality. It helps me even in creating encrypted PDF files also. I have no risk of my document getting into wrong hands. Able to merge the files easily.

  ### 2. Highly recommendable File converting platform i have come across

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Konjengbam  M. | BDR, Financial Services, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 20, 2023

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

It is easy to access. It is readily available through a web browser. The files are converted with great ease. There is no trademark on the converted file.  I love the variety of options available to convert to various other files.

**What do you dislike about GorillaPDF?**

I love most part of it. I just wish if there was an option for converting PDF File to word file. I would be more happy if i can carry around this platform using an android app for gorilla pdf.

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

Gorilla pdf is solving problems of converting files with so much ease. I find this helpful in my office work as i don't need to do the typing for similar works all over again.

  ### 3. My review of GorillaPDF

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ankush  S. | Community Manager, Higher Education, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 17, 2023

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

Here's what I liked the most about GorillaPDF:
1. It's free: Yes, it's 100% free. I don't know how the team will sustain this in the long run; maybe they will choose to stay on a freemium model with tight limits or ads. But, at the time of writing, it's 100% free.
2. It's ad-free: I don't use an ad-blocker, but to my surprise, there isn't even a single ad on this website. It's so clean and distraction-free. 
3. Generous limits: Yes, there are limits, but they are not so strict. Let's say I want to convert a text file to PDF; it's 50 MB per file (at the time of writing). I don't think you will find such generous limits anywhere. For jpeg to PDF, it's 100 MB. It might sound low to someone, but it's a lot generous. I have purchased Sejda PDF premium to deal with large files. Plus, there are no time limits, or I found none, which is impressive.
4. Lots of tools: To my surprise, it offers many tools that are hard to find elsewhere under one roof. You can convert many file formats to PDF, and they are adding more.
5. Loved their mission: I have not noticed an about page, except for GorillaPDF. They are working to promote the paperless culture, and I was able to resonate with it. Such details help connect better with customers.
6. Educating others: They have a blog where some authors explain what you can do with PDFs. I have never read anything, but it's worth mentioning. They also have a newsletter that keeps you up-to-date on the developments happening at the backend.

**What do you dislike about GorillaPDF?**

Well, a lot to dislike:
1. Unreliable - Most of the time, you can't convert your files as it just throws the typical 'something went wrong' error. And it happens after you're done uploading the files. It just makes it a bit unreliable to use. I use it when I am not close to deadlines. It wastes a lot of time if I upload a large file only to see that it failed to convert. On average, it works 6 out of 10 times.
2. Lack of basic tools: Well, it's really strange. They do have some very unique tools but lack some essential ones. It should be fine for some, but it's hard to switch for me. For instance, it does not have any feature to remove watermarks, crop PDFs, etc.
3. Slow support: A few days back, I tried to bring these issues through their contact form but never received any reply. They might have taken steps to rectify this, but at least they should reply that they have read that.
4. No app: I am a fan of apps. They make the experience faster and work reliably well during connectivity problems. They are fans of web apps. Not an issue, but worth a point.
5. No dark mode: Their website is full of bright colors. I either find myself turning the brightness down or forcing dark mode. Many such services don't offer it, but it's now a must-have feature.

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

Here's a list of problems I am solving with GorillaPDF:
1. I can convert any file to PDF. It makes it so easy to share while making it difficult to make edits.
2. I can potentially help me in unlocking password-protected PDF files. I haven't used it, but it's a must-have utility.
3. It comes with a handy OCR, which helps me to copy content from PDF files.
4. It comes with a nice PDF compressor which helps me share files faster without compromising much quality.

  ### 4. Simple, Easy, Fast & Full of Features

It provides free features and is great but there is lack of communication regarding the data processed. It doesnt cost any money to use the services so it's a bit challenging to completely trust process docuemnts that need to be secure.

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

It helps me quickly work on pdf's and other file formats by making conversions easier. The multiple functionalities are great and now offer a lot of help other than just converting pdf to text & text to pdf. There even is an OCR available which is pretty accurate and great.

**What do you dislike about GorillaPDF?**

I like everything as it is free, easy to use and fast. I have not had any problems with any of their tools. The only thing that could be improved would be to write the text that will be converted to pdf directly on the page without loading a .txt document.

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

Everything is done directly with them; this is very good since we save time and money by being accessible; in turn, all its tools allow a quick and easy download so that any user can use it without needing someone to explain it to them.

  ### 6. Excellent tool for PDF to word and word to PDF format

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Sravan Kumar Reddy K. | salesforce developer at persistent, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 30, 2023

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

Gorilla PDF converts any document format to PDF format and vice versa. We usually convert Word files to PDF files as the size reduces when Word files are converted to PDF. We can forward those PDF files via email too.

**What do you dislike about GorillaPDF?**

Gorilla PDF is taking some time to convert the files. Sometimes screen refreshes automatically while we upload our files. Sometimes after conversion, it won't show the download button.

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

Most of the time, we prepare all the documents in Word. But sending Word files becomes hectic due to the size of the paper. Then we used Gorilla PDF converter to convert files from Word to PDF.

  ### 8. The best PDF application you'll need for your business

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Quynh V. | Senior Marketing Specialist, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 17, 2023

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

The fact that it's intuitive. Most PDF programs are quite complex and the UI is horrible or difficult to navigate. One thing I appreciate about GorillaPDF is that it's easy to use - for new users too. You can easily train members who will get it after 1 training session because of how easy it is to navigate on and use. It's also great with doing everything you need it to convert files into different formats.

**What do you dislike about GorillaPDF?**

It should allow for extremely large file sizes. Sometimes, it's impossible to start off with a low sized file...which makes it difficult to use any of the GorillaPDF options.

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

Majority of the time, you have to pay for a service to convert files to different formats...or when you convert them...the formatting of the original document looks misaligned. GorillaPDF bypasses these issues and when converted...they look just as nice and aligned as the original file! This helps us save time when preparing documents internally or for clients.

Very easy-to-use pdf converter to take any other file type and convert to pdf. Used this a lot before we got actual software to do it. The quality is good and looks sharp, and able to take multiple file types and put them into pdf.

**What do you dislike about GorillaPDF?**

Once you convert to pdf, there is no editing with this. You would need adobe or some other pdf editing program to edit the pdf after you convert it in gorilla. Once you make the pdf, if you need to edit, you need to edit your original file and then reuse gorilla.

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

Most of my end-reports need to be in pdf. This was a simple way to convert my files into a pdf package that looks sharp and can be opened and edited in adobe later.

  ### 35. The ultimate all in one file converter

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Diogo L. | Video Editor, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 23, 2021

Typically finding good pdf converters can be complicated, but GorillaPDF solves those problems as it is reliable for all of my PFD Converting needs. It also has a blog that provides valuable information and interesting facts.

  ### 37. Okay for basics, nice that it's web based

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Justin P. | Communications, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 10, 2021

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

It's online, with nothing to install. It can do a lot of basic conversions quickly without a billion ads like most web-based programs. It's a pretty straightforward program - elementary to use!

**What do you dislike about GorillaPDF?**

Some of the conversions lose some content when you're converting to PDF. To make things easier, you lose some adjustability. As an example: Full Acrobat allows some nuance between size and quality concerning images and content, but Gorilla is just "low/medium/high". And the PDF to text extractions are basic. When they say text, they mean TEXT—no formatting, fonts, layout, etc. They created a tile-based design for ease of access, but if you have a mobile device, you may not know about the lower tiles unless you scroll a bit.

**Recommendations to others considering GorillaPDF:**

Suitable for people without Adobe products, OR people with adobe products who need an on-the-go solution when they're not at their home computer.

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

It's perfect for on-the-go stuff where I don't have my personal computer or use a library/remote computer. It's also free, so there are no concerns about licensing deadlines, etc. blocking it when I need it most.

  ### 39. GorillaPDF - your PDF printer online

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Rafael C. | Engenheiro de computação, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 30, 2021

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

Gorilla PDF can be summarized as an online PDF printing tool. Why? Because you can convert the main file formats to PDF files easily, without the need to install any application or plugin on your device. This is especially useful on smartphones, where you sometimes need a file to be sent quickly in PDF format. For example, the photo of a document.
The tool is simple, fast, intuitive interface and no registration is required. We know that nowadays there are "PDF printers" that are applications installed on the devices, but this tool is much easier and simpler to use.

**What do you dislike about GorillaPDF?**

The main negative point can not even be seen as this way, but rather as a suspicion about the protection of your data and files at the moment that you must send them to a server that you do not know of the security features available. The tool claims that data is deleted within 12 hours. Is it true?
A possible point of improvement is if the generated PDF files could be editable, which would help some tasks.

**Recommendations to others considering GorillaPDF:**

The tool does not convert any type of file to PDF, only the most common images, documents, spreadsheets and presentations.
The tool is online, so you must always be connected to the Internet to use it.

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

I use GorillaPDF a lot mainly on cell phones. Since it is not necessary to install anything and there is a request that the file format to be sent must be PDF, I quickly open GorillaPDF in my browser and perform the conversion quickly. The ease of not worrying about installing more tools on your device is for me, the great advantage of GorillaPDF.
