"PDFelement’s Editing, OCR, and eSignature Tools Make PDF Work Effortless"

5/5

What do you like best about Wondershare PDFelement?

What I really like is the editing tools. I use those every week. Old scanned documents -- the OCR will pick-up the text, and then I can edit the document as if it was a regular file (no print sign scan, etc.). I also love the ability to generate an electronic signature request with the time stamped certificate. Lastly, PDFelement hasn’t crashed on me in months – which is a big deal for me with pdf software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wondershare PDFelement?

Occasionally I’ll upload something that has checkboxes in it, and the tool will fill in all of the boxes – which is odd & annoying to correct. Also creating fillable forms from scratch can take some getting used to – it took me a couple tries to figure out where the field tools were located. Additionally, I wish there would be clearer pricing. A lot of very basic features are locked behind the more expensive tiers. So you don't know until later. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Wondershare PDFelement solving and how is that benefiting you?

Basically “I need to change this pdf – but I’m not going to pay adobe” – scanning old paper to making it into an editable file. Merging/splitting/reordering pages. Signing documents electronically, sending them out to have others sign them. All of these little tasks that I used to use at least three separate programs for, now do it all in one program. Don’t get me wrong – it doesn’t do everything fancy – but for most every day paper work issues it does what I need it to do – and it costs less than many other options – therefore, I’ve pretty much stopped thinking about it.
