PDFEscape vs. Soda PDF

This editor is not made for reference designing pdfs, but for simple editing, it is more than efficient. Many PDF editors require a subscription for something as basic as typing a name or date. PDFEscape is perfect for this and can be done online without any software download.

The ease of use of My Soda PDF makes it the go-to software for anything PDF-related. I love all the features - converting documents to PDF, PDF to MSWord, or other types of Microsoft Office files. Forms creation keeps documents professional looking instead of having them handwritten. We use SODA to upload forms sent to us, then fill in via the PDF filler. I love how easy SODA is to use via Mac/PC, tablets, and phones. Now that the work environment has changed, remote staff at home or on the road—we can access SODA to ensure our work continues seamlessly. PDFs created can be saved to the Cloud, Desktop, or even e-mailed.

• During the pandemic, the ability to offer digital signing with personalized signatures is a major plus. Glad to have this tool available when needed.

PDFEscape is in a league of its own with price and ease of use. Competitors have not met the same criteria and I constantly go back to PDFEscape.

I tried Smallpdf for sometime. It is also a very good tool for pdf related tasks but it doesn't provide a comprehensive functionality to edit a pdf document. I couldn't modify the text of my pdf documents in Smallpdf. But SodaPDF gives me the functionality to edit/change the text of my pdf documents. So I shifted from Smallpdf to this software.
