PDF Architect 9
Date: Jan 17 2023SummaryI am satisfied with the features, the interface is user-friendly but I don' like the fact that I will have to pay a yearly fee.
PositiveI like the features that are provided; although not being a professional it is sometimes handy to be able to edit PDF-documents or to e.g. insert/withdraw pages.
NegativeI am not so happy with the fact that you charge a yearly (rather expensive) fee. I started using PDF Architect years ago, in version 4. It offered the necessary features for what I need and I only had to pay the purchase cost. I upgraded several times but had problems to activate the program on a new device (on replacement of my laptop). I stopped upgrading but now - my former laptop is completely outdated - I can no longer 'buy' the software, in my opinion it is a lease.

PDF Architect - Adding account
Updated: Aug 09 2023SummaryWe are a small company that needs flexibility, a great product at an affordable budget. This works for us as we can do everyday functions, be competitive and help our company grow.
PositiveLove the price, interface and ease of use. We can add user accounts as we need them. This matters as we are a small business and provide our own tech support our company.
NegativeUnderstanding where to go for help can be made easier, support chat would help on the interface.

Pro PDF features at a fraction of the price
Date: Nov 15 2023SummaryI've been using PDF Architect since it was released and before that I used the predecessor product PDF Creator for many years. I've never had any issues with the products and recommend them.
PositiveEditing features that do everything I need, at a third or less of the price of Adobe's product. If anything, it's even easier to use and not as intrusive day-to-day.
Supported by responsive, helpful online chat with real people as well as access to the usual knowledge articles etc.NegativeNothing, it does everything I need well enough without trouble.

Poor customer service
Date: Jan 24 2023SummaryOnce you learn the menus and submenus, it works fine. The customer service experience has been terrible. See above.
PositiveA lot of features including OCR functions (extra cost). Pretty much everything I would like to do to edit pdf documents.
NegativeAppalling customer service. They invited me to download PDF Architect 9, (up from my installed version 8) The download apparently wiped out my subscriber information. After FIVE days, customer service has not given me a substantive response or cure.

Best PDF software I've used
Date: Feb 25 2023SummaryIve not looked to change in well over a decade, its my go to PDF programme. Its ease of use and the usefulness of all the modules is what makes this PDF programme stand out from the others, the converter is the best as well.
PositiveThe app, but just as important, the outstanding customer support, if there is a problem, they deal with it, they treat their customers as prized possessions, so from that point of view, everyone else is second best.
NegativeThe fact you can no longer buy it outright and still get the updates, but that does not distract from its overall quality and ease of use.

Solid performance
Date: Dec 18 2023SummaryGood Acrobat alternative, competitively priced. Support via email worked. I like it overall and I plan to renew it.
PositiveProduct is stable, works as expected. The conversion tools (pdf to ppt etc) work very well. It has a well designed interface, though not as intuitive as the original Acrobat, still it works fine.
NegativeSecurity management is not easy to use. I had some trouble creating pdfs from scratch at the beginning, then I got used to it.

Good Support Team
Date: Feb 22 2023SummaryGood on the whole. I have been using PDF architect for a while now.
It is a good product that works well in MS windows OS.PositiveGood timely response from the support team. I have an older Architect 5 that I bought several years ago. They easily fixed my License problem for a new laptop along with a small upgrade to the next higher version 6. They also offered me a discounted price for their latest version 9.
ThanksNegativeNothing to mention.

Why I use PDF Architect
Date: Feb 15 2023SummaryPDF Architect is basically a good software, but the problem is that I don't get support in my native language (Hungarian), and English is difficult.
PositiveMore and more offices are sending PDF documents that must be filled out online. This basically requires PDF Architect.
NegativeRenewal and installation are still not quite user-friendly.

PositiveI like how easy it is to use and the many features.
When I had a problem, the support is excellent, friendly and professional. The chat feature was very convenient.NegativeI had a problem using this program for a while.

Form king
Date: Apr 14 2023SummaryAs I said, great software at a very competitive price. I will remain to be a loyal user. After the bugs and featured requests are resolved, you will then have an awesome product.
PositiveI like that it does almost everything that adobe sign does, PDF Architect has an easy to use interface. As pdf software, I have always loved its features and the read aloud is super handy.
NegativeI have noticed a few bugs and I have made some featured requests. This can always be expected. You guys welcome any feedback.

The issue with not being able to select a font size in ‘request a signature’ mode makes this excellent feature unusable . Something to tackle for you guys. -

Horrific Product
Date: Jul 25 2023SummaryJust pay for Adobe Acrobat instead - you will receive a much better product and a better service for you to use.
PositiveCheaper than Acrobat and is a basic version of this. It looks like adobe acrobat just to remind you of the service you should be buying.
NegativeThis is the worst configured product I have ever seen. If you are planning on using this for a company or multiple users, STAY WELL AWAY. Do not purchase this product under any circumstances - you will regret it when you have to start troubleshooting this incompetent product. Even assigning licenses is an absolute pain because nothing works about it. This product and service has had about 5 minutes put in to it during the design process. PLEASE DO NOT BUT OR WASTE ANY FORM OF MONEY ON IT!
