Considered Both Products	BlinkDMS Colin Tiller Sales Development Representative Chose BlinkDMS The simple design of BlinkDMS is my preference. Especially when it comes to new employees. Currently using dropbox and we struggle to find things where more frequently than when I had used BlinkDMS. Incentivized Helpful?	pdfFiller BC Brian Del Terzo Credilife® Administrator Chose pdfFiller Foxit Pro and Adobe, but the all-encompassing solutions available through PDFFiller and other solutions within the same brand are a tremendous value to our organization and the clients we serve. Incentivized Helpful? JK JEFF KAISER Actor Chose pdfFiller There are SO many options for this category. What I will say is that I am not always in control nor am I always able to suggest going PDF. People have their rhymes and reasons foro why they use what they do. My next most frequently used option is DocuSign, which by all means is … Incentivized Helpful? DM Dave Mason - Realtor Real Estate Agent Chose pdfFiller Works great. Filling out pdfs used to be a pain in the rear. PDFfiller is a great app and defiantly makes my life a lot easier. Some of the other apps can be a real pain in the rear. It’s just east to use what can I say. I can imagin my phone without it. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose pdfFiller i have never looked for a similar product. i didnt even know similar products existed! Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose pdfFiller better price Incentivized Helpful? KM Karla Marchant Administrative Coordinator Chose pdfFiller I have never been sent a legal document via PDFfiller, only Docusign. We only use Docusign for legal and accounting matters because that is what our accountant, solicitor and real estate agent choose to use. It is my understanding that Docusign is more appropriate for contracts … Incentivized Helpful? LW Lakia Wilson Owner Chose pdfFiller I have not used any other products listed to provide feedback. Incentivized Helpful? DJ Dr. Laura Jaget Property Manager Chose pdfFiller This is the only product of this sort that I have used. No need to look for anything else. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose pdfFiller This is my first time using a service like this. I chose this because it was what a previous coworker used to do the job i am doing now. I would not change services as PDFfiller is very easy to use and navigate. Incentivized Helpful? CS CJ Scarlet President Chose pdfFiller I've not had to try any others. I was fortunate to stumble on PDFfiller as my first choice and I've never had to use anything else. Incentivized Helpful? BJ Brad Jay Senior Business Development Advisor Chose pdfFiller I find it much easier to use and more user friendly than Adobe Acrobat Incentivized Helpful? JS JONATHAN SINGER Attorney Chose pdfFiller They only other one I looked into (but didn't use) was the editor made by Adobe. The price was prohibitive for a small business like mine. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose pdfFiller easier to use. Incentivized Helpful? LA Laazar Arencibia Director Chose pdfFiller DocuSign and Smallpdf Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose pdfFiller I have not used many others but in my field there are real estate specific options like Glide or Homelight that offer pdf editing but I don't think they offer as much editing features I need and is not as smooth to operate. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose pdfFiller I have not used other products - PDFfiller was the first one I tried and have kept my annual subscription active since it was so easy to use. Incentivized Helpful? KM Katie McKinnon Office Manager Chose pdfFiller I googled filling a PDF over 5 years ago, this is the first software that came up. It has been so helpful, easy to use and reasonably priced, we have not looked elsewhere. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose pdfFiller Easier for a small practice and more cost effective Incentivized Helpful? PP Philip Petrini Director of Strategic Accounts Chose pdfFiller Docusign is very limited in my opinion. The software itself is also very clunky and skips around too much for my brain to handle. The UI is also confusing and looks sort of pieced together. Incentivized Helpful? SS Sherry Scott Office Support Manager Chose pdfFiller PDFfiller is more user friendly and doesn't need anything extra in order to use it. Incentivized Helpful? HD Holly Dalton Administrative Coordinator Chose pdfFiller PDFfiller is much less expensive than DocuSign and you will get more for your money. Docusign charges a ton of money for their product. PDFfiller can do basically the same thing. Incentivized Helpful? GT Gary Thandi CEO (Chief Executive Officer) Chose pdfFiller PDF Filler is more user friendly and does more. Incentivized Helpful? RV Robert Vidal Employee Benefits Advisor Chose pdfFiller I like this better than Adobe but not as much as DocuSign mainly b/c DocuSign is more readily accepted for electronic signature and also DocuSign has better name recognition. Incentivized Helpful? NF Nicole Fischer Director of Finance Chose pdfFiller Adobe isn't user-friendly in my opinion. I can't save a pdf easily when I want to only select certain pages. PDFfiller is much faster and does everything I need and the interface makes more sense to me. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose pdfFiller I have only sued PDFfiller as it met my needs at the time and the price was awesome! Incentivized Helpful?

User Testimonials
	BlinkDMS	pdfFiller
Likelihood to Recommend	A big organization. Where documents need to be shared or viewed by multiple parties. Easy upload and understanding with very little training needed. This helps workflows and saves time. We did run into issues where there was no multi language option Incentivized Colin Tiller Sales Development Representative Read full review	Honestly, everyone should know about PDF filler. But then again, its my little secret, lol. I love the fact that I can make edits to PDF seamlessly and professionally. I also love the fact that the documents i need to fill out, sign and return look great. Not like i printed them and then tried to use a phone scanner to send them back. PDF filler is what allows me to travel without a printer Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	UX Data implementations User count Electronic signature support Incentivized Colin Tiller Sales Development Representative Read full review	Its user interface makes it a very easy-to-operate app. Without having adequate technical knowledge any user can operate it easily. It works very fine on adding text on any part of a PDF document and It also allows users to delete pre written text from a pdf file. It can also convert PDF files in other office formats with good quality. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Cons	More UX options Long download Better way to file within a file Incentivized Colin Tiller Sales Development Representative Read full review	Manually resending the document was a feature that seems to have been taken away. Templates for Send To Sign letters. I basically have to type the same information over and over again each time. I was hoping that it would save it but it doesn't seem to have that function Signer cannot save the document once it has been signed. I have to make sure that there is a note within the email that states that I will send them a copy. Wish it had a way to send me a copy of the email I sent.

Likelihood to Renew	No answers on this topic	I will always be a faithful PDFfiller customer. The product has saved me a lot of time over the years and I find a great deal of value in the platform. If I move on to another company someday, PDFfiller will be going with me wherever I go. Incentivized PP Philip Petrini Director of Strategic Accounts Read full review
Usability	No answers on this topic	I don't fully understand all the features and I could probably be using it better, especially the templates. The organisation of exisiting files could be better (ie similar to folders on a pc/laptop). I haven't really invested much time into exploring it further than filling out forms; There possibly is an organisation solution I haven't discovered yet Incentivized KM Karla Marchant Administrative Coordinator Read full review
Support Rating	No answers on this topic	If you need help, you can easily search for it and find online tutorials that walk you through how to do specific things step by step. You do not have to read a 20 page manual or sit for a 10 hour training session, it is refreshing that you can take it at your own pace and learn things as you need to Incentivized HD Holly Dalton Administrative Coordinator Read full review
Implementation Rating	No answers on this topic	When I was hired on by my current company I was already a paying customer, so I just brought it with me. Once I showed our President/Founder how simple it was to use for our contracts, agreements, and NDAs, it has been a staple in our company ever since. That was almost 3 years ago. We've closed quicker because of the speed at which we can turn signed docs around. Incentivized PP Philip Petrini Director of Strategic Accounts Read full review

My next most frequently used option is DocuSign, which by all means is a top performer as well. The ease and universal comfort of PDF Filler resonate on a higher level of subconscious use globally so it becomes second nature like using text messages to video conferencing Incentivized JEFF KAISER Actor Read full review
Return on Investment	Time Organization. Prevents mistakes Awareness of system. Was easy to say its in Blink Incentivized Colin Tiller Sales Development Representative Read full review	Achieved significant ROI immediately, by freeing up our sales staff to actually sell (show properties, prospect new clients, list new houses), rather than spending time printing/scanning/manually completing forms, documents, and legal agreements. Huge quality of life improvement immediately felt by our entire team that uses the application Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
