Looking for a California DMV form, PDFFiller was listed several levels above the dmv.ca.gov site and it had a link to "fill out form online". No where did they mention that all they would allow would be to fill it out; not to save, send, or print. Only when I had gone to the trouble of filling it out completely did they bother to mention that I couldn't do anything with it without paying them. This is blatant false advertising. No one needs PDFFiller. The free and reputable PDFXchange viewer does everything PDFFiller does and also lets you do anything you want with the result. For the same price as PDFFiller PDFXchange editor is a far more complete and capable program.

I downgraded my perception of this product after getting better acquainted with it. As it turns out, to do certain basic things, it asks you to upgrade and spend even more money. It smacks of the old retail gimmick of reeling you in and then peddling an "upsell." I decided to invest my money and my time into a product from Nuance called Power PDF and was able to accomplish well done, fillable PDFs for less than an annual subscription for PDF Filler. Needless to say, I won't be renewing PDF Filler at the end of my term. In fairness to them, PDF Filler gets the job done "adequately," but if you're willing to spend some time on the learning curve, there are better products out there without having to succumb to the "upsell."

At first, I was intimidated by all the different prompts and directions but after a short while I was able to figure things out. It was intuitive and easy. Also, with a little practice, I was able to line up the cursor to where I want the letters to show. For someone who is using this service for personal use (not business) the cost is slightly prohibitive. So I would probably only subscribe when I really need it and can't find a more reasonable alternative. I have been recommending this service to friends and family for sometime now. I am sold on it.Thank you.
