    Positive

    Functionality is very good, have used this product for quite a while, and enjoy it; it meets my needs very well.

    Support from pdf Pro 10

    Date: Jul 03 2022
    Summary

    I am happy with the product and when I learn to navigate and use the functions I will be more than happy I'm sure with it.

    Positive

    Before I purchased PDF Pro 10 I had several questions which were answered by a staff member named Annalissa. She was always prompt and informative in reply and more than that was always courteous which meant a lot to me and was subsequently my reason for making the purchase.

    Negative

    I would like to have more information on how to use the product with out having to search in the media for this.

    PDF Pro 10

    Date: Jun 17 2022
    Summary

    I am very satisfied with the PDF Pro 10. A PDF Editor is a must have program these days when most documents come as portable document format. I am impressed with the support provided by the company. Real professionals who always provide prompt and to-the-point help to solve any problem.

    Positive

    The price which is much cheaper than Adobe Acrobat Pro and yet it is an excellent product with all the features doing everything one would expect from a PDF Editor.

    Negative

    I cannot fault the product. I have never encountered any issue while using the program.

    Company knows program crashes when Windows updates!

    Updated: Dec 11 2022
    Summary

    Don't buy...they are dishonest in my estimation. I am looking for a PDF editor that is reliable from another company that will back their product.

    Positive

    Except for the fact that the program consistently crashes each time Windows updates and you have to contact the company to get a new activation code before you can reload the software to use it, when it is working it's not too bad.

    Negative

    The company admitted the program crashes whenever Windows updates... 3 times within a couple of months. You have to contact the company to get a new activation code and reload the software each time. Their software is defective. They will not issued a permanent activation code and refused to refund my money--past the 30 day window. They know about the defect but will not honor their satisfaction guarantee. They are counting on you not discovering the problem within the first 30 days.

    PDF PRO 10

    Date: May 06 2022
    Summary

    Great! I 'm really impressed with the product support team as well!

    Positive

    I like the simplicity and design of the software. I like that you can import images files, which is huge for me. Most of all, the product support team is top notch.

    Negative

    Nothing. Really works as it should. I have to learn it more to give a proper assessment.

    Sometimes works well (until it doesn't)

    Date: Feb 16 2022
    Summary

    Lousy! Because of lousy customer support, no chance of refunds, buggy installations, rip-off asking 10 bucks a year to do updates.

    Positive

    For my limited needs it works. Support is nearly nonexistent. Updates are buggy. Updates require uninstall 1st.

    Negative

    After the 1st year of purchase, you must spend another $9.95 to get maintenance updates, new versions.
    I did it (stupid me) To do this they send you a new install.exe and a new activation key.
    You MUST uninstall the old program 1st. The new key didn't work on my old version, so I followed their instructions.
    The new install failed every time, (Windows 10) so I reinstalled my old one, now it says it's a trial and I must purchase again at full price. I didn't record the old key (stupid me again)
    When I contacted support, they said my issued was already resolved and left me hanging.
    If you need advanced features stay away. For very simple uses it was ok.
    I am now out $60.

    Hello, A while back, we had to rewrite the entire engine of PDF Pro 10 (unfortunately our main developer passed away). While it is true that you might have had to uninstall / reinstall the software to update it, the new version should be a lot more stable. Yes, we offer a perpetual license with an annual maintenance for $10, which is a lot less expensive than most of our competitors. If you have the orderID, license key, of email address you used to make the purchase, we can look up your order and reset your license. Our Payment Provider is FastSpring, so maybe look for an order confirmation from FS Notification.

    The new version is a trash

    Date: Jan 17 2022
    Summary

    BAD. The product has good features but the design of the menu itself is crappy. It is not user-friendly. No instructions and the customer service is non-existent. I am struggling to make it work to no avail.

    Positive

    When I had the old version, it worked great. I could amend the document, add words etc. When I upgraded to Windows 11, it did not work. The company told me I have to buy the latest and greatest version.

    Negative

    The address window is too big and takes up half the page. Asked the help desk and they told me the remedy is to minimize it. What a crap! When I minimize, I cannot use any of the menu items. Many emails to customer service with screenshots and no help. They repeated the same thing. I would not buy this latest and greatest version. Every time I open a document, the sub menu for distance and spacing adjustment takes up another quarter of the page. I have to go and click the hand button to get it off. There is no way to remove it. No instruction manual at all. When you click on the Help tab, nothing comes up. Just says Small font or something like that.

    Summary

    Wonderful product; good value for your dollar; excellent tech support; offers many good features for editing.

    Positive

    Offers all of the features of more expensive PDF applications; not as expensive as other applications.

    Negative

    Typewriter feature a little challenging--hard to line up text entered in a check box or filling in on a line.

    Very Fragile Software

    Date: Oct 17 2022
    Summary

    Still a useful tool but would be even better if I didn't have to keep requesting reinstallation links.

    Positive

    When it is working correctly PDF Pro is every bit as versatile as Adobe Acrobat for most day-to-day needs.

    Negative

    The big downside is its fragility with any and every update to the PC causing PDF Pro to become inoperative.

    Help at your fingertips

    Date: Apr 25 2022
    Summary

    I find the product backed up by support is a no brainer to purchase the subscription. Anyone that wants a good PDF program to use, that works well, should look at this product as a replacement to the other PDF applications out in the ether.

    Positive

    Support is top notch, Annalissa who supported my issue was very helpful from start to finish and it didn't take to long to rectify the issue.

    Negative

    There's not a lot to not like about PDFPro10, it is a very good product for the price point, ease of use etc.

    I would recommend this product without hesitation!

    Makes moving to a new PC REALLY easy!
    NO previous PC administration or technical experience required.

    PDF Pro 10 (Do not buy)

    Date: Jul 04 2022
    Summary

    Terrible experience wasted money on a product whose licensing does not work thus making the product unusable.

    Positive

    When it worked it was okay. There is nothing about this product that I would recommend other than warning people not to buy it.

    Negative

    After 1 ONE day the product stopped working insisting that the license had expired. I searched for help and discovered that this was not uncommon with windows 10 ??? There is a fix on the website which did not work. After contacting support I was directed to remove the product and re-install it using a new license key. I did this and it worked..... for 1 ONE day, then it said license invalid or expired. This products licensing is faulty and whilst it works when it works don't expect to use it for more than 1 day. Do not buy this.

    Best alternative to Adobe

    Date: Nov 23 2022
    Summary

    I had issues activating the software and the support team was quick to respond (despite this week being Thanksgiving) and we were able to get everything solved right away.

    Other than the weird underlining quirk (user error/ignorance?), this program is just as good as Adobe and I'm happy to have it.

    Positive

    I am a Paralegal and it has almost every feature I need: conversion from PDF to Word and visa versa; adding and deleting pages; stamps (I use for digital exhibit stickers); and Bates Labeling. There's a quirk though (see Cons).

    Negative

    I don't like that when I edit a PDF I can't underline selected text (you can italicize and bold it though) and I can't remove lines. Example: My boss sent me a Demand letter to send, but his template was old and had his old email address on the header. I deleted the old text and typed the new text (email address). However, the line that was under the text was the length of the old text (shorter) and looked weird with the new text. I tried to select the line as an object to delete it (something I can do in Adobe when the line is not "with" the text), but nowhere under Edit Text or Edit Image was I able to select the line. My boss also typed an email address in the "to" section that I needed to underline. I couldn't find a way to underline it even though I could bold/italicize/and change the font/color/size. Weird. Normally I edit drafts in Word, but sometimes I get PDFs that are "ready to go", but aren't. So, while this feature is not something I have to have every day, I do need it from time to time and would like this program to have.

    PDF Pro 10

    Date: Mar 08 2022
    Summary

    I find it really useful. Easy to use, great customer support and it’s good value. PDF’s are everywhere but unless you have a decent editor there is nothing you can do with them. PDF Pro makes them so much more than just readable files.

    Positive

    It’s easy to use. I can manipulate pdf files however I want, split them up, re-order them, create them, it’s a really useful tool.

    Negative

    I had some problems with installation but customer support were great and helped me out.

    PDF Pro 10

    Date: Feb 11 2022
    Summary

    Very very poor in every aspect. Nothing compared to Adobe, like getting a one wheel bicycle when you believed you were getting a Ferrari.

    Positive

    Absolutely nothing ... compared to Adobe this is rubbish.

    Cheap.
    Rubbish.
    Not worth buying.

    Negative

    It keeps crashing.. and when you look for technical support, they say uninstall and reinstall. Great if this solved the problem, but having to do it every time you use the product... absolute rubbish.
    Keep as far away as possible. Go with Adobe - more expensive but 1000% better.
