Ashutosh M.: I'm Ashutosh, and I'm a student. I give PDF Reader Pro a rating of four out of five stars. For more reviews like this, click below. Before PDF Reader Pro, we considered options like Foxit Reader. But, it did not work, since it had a lot of complicated UI and a lot of functions which were not needed by us, where we were working. PDF Reader Pro offers very easy annotated UI, like, for example, if you just want to edit a PDF or you want to merge PDFs, it's right then and there. You can even sign PDFs easily, which I and my team found completely useful. And we use it in our day-to-day lives. And also, PDF Reader Pro offers inexpensive options for their plans and all the other things. Integrating PDF Reader Pro in our business was fairly simple, I would say. It's not a tedious task, at the maximum, it would take you less than two hours and you'd be all set up to go. Once it's there, you can churn out PDFs, you can add, merge, split, sign. And, I think it's one of the easiest options available as of today. If you're considering getting PDF Reader Pro, I'd suggest that you'll look out for all the other apps, you try them before, and then you try PDF Reader Pro, that way you will know what you're looking for, and that way you also know that what features you require or you don't require. And accordingly, you can choose the version that you wish to download.
