### "Smallpdf una herramienta opcional para convertir o unir tus documentos"

January 22, 2023

5.0

Mi experiencia ha sido buena, pero hay otros softwares con mayores funcionalidades.

Pros

Lo que más me ha gustado es que tiene diferentes formatos para convertir documentos, además de unirlos y puedes unirlos en la posición y tamaño que quieras.

Cons

Lo que menos es que su prueba gratuita es muy limitada y me parece carillo en referencia a otros programas que tienen las mismas funcionalidades que ese.

### "Frequent user for homeworks"

January 29, 2019

4.0

Overall, I used to be a regular user of smallpdf. Now, there are other easy-to-use apps to get these jobs done. I am not sure whether they have app of smallpdf.

Pros

The best thing about smallpdf is that the interface is neat and tidy. I have mostly used it for converting jpg images to pdf and merging pdfs. Unlike the other web-based services, their website is pretty clean. I would give some points to the aesthetics of the website too :-) ! Apart from that, it gets the essential jobs done. Few minutes left before the deadline of homework? Just take pictures using phone, send 'em to laptop and drag and drop the images to smallpdf. Saved me many times.

Cons

The paid version does not really make much sense to me after the release of the free mobile apps from adobe like adobe reader DC and adobe sign. Especially after adobe scan was released, it really solved the problems of taking pictures, merging and creating a pdf document in a more integrated way. These apps have recently substituted smallpdf because they are more accessible from my phone and tablet.

### "Life and time saver"

December 25, 2019

5.0

An indispensable tool that I use daily to compress and attached PDFs to emails. Other similar PDF compression tools can't even come close to how excellent Smallpdf. Use this tool now!!

Pros

Smallpdf is an incredible easy to use tool that no one should be without. An absolute essential if you work with PDFs. Drag and drop and watch large sized PDFs magically compress to a fraction of its original size. There's no other PDF converting software that's as simple, safe and easy to use at Smallpdf. The Chrome widget is another great feature, though the most useful is the Gmail integration.

Cons

All good things need to come to some type of end, what was once a free tool now requires a subscription, thought it's money well spent.

### "Boa plataforma de gerenciamento de arquivos em PDF"

June 3, 2023

5.0

É uma plataforma de fácil acesso, e bastante útil no dia a dia.

Pros

Tem uma interface fácil e intuitiva. Oferece uma ampla variedade de recursos para manipulação de arquivos em PDF.

Cons

A versão gratuita é um tanto restrita, quanto a tamanho e a número de arquivos manipulados. Algumas vezes a qualidade da conversão deixa a desejar.

### " It is an essential tool for managing and processing documents"

April 23, 2023

5.0

The platform offers a wide range of tools, including PDF compression, merging, splitting, and conversion to various formats, such as Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.

Pros

I have found Smallpdf to be an incredibly useful tool for our business. Smallpdf is a web-based platform that provides a range of PDF editing and conversion tools that have helped us. The platform is simple and intuitive, making it easy for even non-technical users to quickly convert and edit PDFs. This has helped us to save time and reduce the need for manual document editing.

Cons

free version has some limitations in terms of file size and number of conversions per day. you may need to upgrade to a paid plan to access all the features and remove these limitations.

### "Avaliação Smallpdf"

April 20, 2023

5.0

O Smallpdf é muito bom! No pacote free é possível utilizar as funcionalidades mais importantes do software com qualidade e agilidade. Em nenhum momento o usuário é obrigado ou induzido a adquirir pacotes mais caros.

Pros

A facilidade de converter arquivos de vários formatos, principalmente de PDF para imagem e o contrário. A possibilidade de editar PDFs é um diferencial que é ótimo.

Cons

Que as vezes ao converter arquivos eles permanecem com tamanhos de arquivos muito grandes, mesmo pedindo para reduzir o tamanho. O editor de PDF apesar de ser bom, deixa a desejar em alguns momentos ao não reconhecer certos caracteres editáveis.

### "I LOVE smallpdf! What a great tool for pdf users."

February 24, 2018

5.0

This is a great suite of products that makes document management so easy.

Pros

This software is SO quick and easy to use online. I produce a lot of pdf's for work that need to be emailed out. By compressing the pdf's through smallpdf, they are smaller and faster to send. It uses a simple drag and drop interface and then can be downloaded for distribution. Documents can be uploaded from your pc, but also Dropbox and Google Drive. A graphic designer I know did not believe that the compression tool would keep the quality and he was very pleasantly surprised when he saw that the quality of his document was not affected. The software is not limited to just compressing pdfs, but has the capacity to convert other document formats into pdfs and do other pdf functions like merging pdfs and signing them. As well as compressing, Smallpdf can convert from pdfs into Word, Excel, Powerpoint and jpeg. The converted documents are quite respectable and editable; better than any other software I have used in the past. We use the free version but the price of the pro version is relatively small and worth considering.

Cons

The free version only allows for 2 compression uses per hour. This is the same for other functions. It is workable, though.

### "Easy online software great for reducing file size"

May 26, 2023

5.0

Pros

I like that I can easily compress large files into smaller files which saves storage space and allows for me to send more smaller files as attachments via email.

Cons

When files are compressed, the image quality is often reduced, which is a bit of a hassle. I hope the company can offer great quality in file reduction while reducing file size.

### "Smallpdf is a big asset!"

December 2, 2023

5.0

An easy, fast, and smooth tool that gets sometimes overwhelming workflow done in no time. Love it!

Pros

The user interface has a good-looking, modern, and friendly design. Many options allow me to instantly choose what I'm looking for and get the job done right away. I mostly use it to convert large PDF files, to merge and compress, all of which is done super fast and smoothly. I love this tool and it is my number one to go tool when working with PDF files. I highly recommend!

Cons

I have no complaints but I mostly use only the all-about-PDF-files features.

### "Siguen cobrándome tres años después de haber cancelado mi suscripción premium"

April 2, 2024

1.0

Pros

Reduce PDF pero siguen cobrándome dos años después de haber cancelado mi suscripción premium, lo que me parece un robo, literalmente. Cada vez que me cobran, tengo que abrir una disputa con mi banco porque el servicio de atención al cliente no me responde.

Cons

Son unos ladrones, una vez que tienen tu tarjeta te cobran lo que les de da gana (antes 10 euros, ahora 28) incluso cuando tu cuenta lleve cancelada 3 años.

### "Converting Document into PDF Made Easy"

April 9, 2019

4.0

Did I mention that the merge PDF has no file limit - this is the best thing to ever happen to me!

Pros

1\. That I can upload a document and click convert and before I know it I have a pdf document staring at me. 2. Allows a user to perform more than one task: Convert PDF to word and Word to PDF, compress and merge several documents, and convert JPG to PDF and back

Cons

1\. When converting a file from word to PDf the name usually changes, it would be great if they maintained the original name of the document.

### "Easy program to work PDF’s"

May 3, 2023

3.0

Additionally, Smallpdf offered a wide range of features, including the ability to merge multiple PDF files into one, convert PDFs to other formats such as Word or Excel, and even split large PDFs into smaller files.

Pros

Smallpdf is a great online platform that I used to rely on for all my PDF needs. However, since I have started using another program for my PDF-related tasks, I haven't used Smallpdf as frequently as before.One thing that I particularly liked about Smallpdf was its ease of use. The platform is straightforward and simple, making it easy for anyone to convert, compress, edit, and sign PDF documents without any hassle.

Cons

I currently have a software solution installed on my computer, which I prefer over relying on a cloud-based service that may have limitations on the number of free conversions per day.
