Chose KDAN PDF
The price is more friendly. They can support us locally and solve our problems in a short time.
Chose KDAN PDF
The app wasn't great, in my opinion. The interface wasn't as good as PDF Reader, while the features were not that advanced.
Chose KDAN PDF
It was somewhat difficult to use, and it wasn't really what we were looking for in terms of UI.
Chose KDAN PDF
We have also tried Expert PDF Reader. There were no converting, signing, faxing or features. In general, it was far less useful.

Likelihood to Recommend
I have been searching for a platform that allows us to edit PDFs for free since this is not something we do daily. I am glad that iLovePDF offers tons of features for absolutely free.

I don't think that the laptop version is good for reading/looking over documents and even though the software works fine with files of large sizes, the interface isn't convenient enough for the reading part. Apart from that, the app is really useful in all kinds of other ways when it comes to editing, splitting/combining and so on. It's also great for highlighting and editing texts, faxing, converting and adding e-signatures.

  • The app is great for signing documents after they are edited - it works well on all devices and e-signatures can be added without any additional tools and you're not attached to a particular device either.
  • Editing PDFs is also incredibly easy - there are plenty of tools for that, as well as being able to view all kinds of other documents formats, not just PDFs.
  • Sharing documents is also something that is quite easy with PDF Reader - sending out signed contracts and agreements, collaborating on document editing and so on. This tool is quite versatile, in general.

  • In my opinion, the tools/features work well, but the interface should be updated in terms of being simpler and more intuitive. All the features are useful, but it isn't always easy to understand how they work - most are easy to figure out, but a few take time.
  • Moreover, I'd like to see some kind of uniformity of the features in different versions of the software. The apps vary depending on what OS the app version is designed for, which isn't always convenient. Personally, I use windows at home and Mac at the office, but I work from home too and don't like that I have to keep in mind what features are accessible and which aren't - can be quite confusing.

In general I was satisfied with customer support every time when I needed help, only once there was a small issue - I had to wait a little longer than usually.
