### "So handy!"

March 7, 2018

5.0

Pros

I love being able to quickly and painlessly change file types, etc. SmallPDF makes it so simple to do anything with a PDF or to make anything into a PDF.

Cons

I don't like how you can only use SmallPDF twice within an hour, but I know where they are coming from. I also know this can be remedied by purchasing the software, but I just make the free version work for me.

### "Where to start with smallpdf"

December 15, 2022

4.0

Pros

SmallPDF punches way above its price bracket. It offers a bunch of features that tools over 5x the price don't.

Cons

The cons of using a smaller application is always the UI/UX. The user experience isn't as smooth as tools that have had years of time to smooth those wrinkles out.

### "Good option if you don't use Adobe suite "

December 3, 2019

5.0

Pdf to excel and word is the most handy thing about this software.

Pros

It is easy to do what you want will pdfs. Going between pdfs and word and pdfs and excel is pretty handy, as well as being able to edit.

Cons

You can split and combine pdfs with preview on Apple computers. Editing and creating pdfs in illustrator is my preferred method.

Pros

what I like the most is that it allows me to edit pdf in a safe way and very easy to use, I love adding mainly necessary images in my documents.

Cons

what I like the least is that it only allows me to convert 2 files in 1 hour, then we must wait but it's something worth waiting for

February 13, 2019

I use it to edit and convert PDF files.

Pros

As my title says, the ability to convert PDF's to editable Word docs is the biggest win of using Smallpdf. Free and full access to all those normally premium PDF features.

You're limited to 2 PDF conversions per hour on the free version.

### "Web上で色々PDFを編集出来るトコロが良きです"

November 6, 2022

4.0

多少思う所はありますが現状PDFの編集をしたかったという課題はクリア出来てるので良いとします。PDFの編集業務が今後続くか次第でSmallPDFを使い続けるか決まる感じですね。

Pros

何といってもWeb上でPDFを読み込んでテキストの挿入や、個人情報等の消したい部分をササっと直せるトコロです。複数台のPCを使うので買い切りタイプのソフトではこうはいかないのでとても良い所です。

Cons

正直、pdfそのものの結合や削除等が分かりづらいです。UIが値段の割に使い勝手が悪くそこは良くない点です。ただ他のもっと使い勝手のいいソフトに任せてこのソフトは編集に徹してるので現状大きくは不満には感じてません。今後に期待します。

### "SmallPDF is a great alternative to Adobe Acrobat!"

September 7, 2019

5.0

Overall, Smallpdf is easy to use and works right out of the box. Adobe Acrobat is a bit pricey and requires a login and only allows up to two people to use the service versus sharing my account with the organization.

Pros

When you go to Smallpdf.com, you are given all the options you would find in Adobe Acrobat. In addition, there's a free trial for you to use in case you want to try it prior to committing.

Cons

I'm not sure if there's outlook integration with smallPDF (gmail integration exists) but that is something I think would be a good idea!

January 6, 2023

4.0

Pros

Two main functions that help me and greatly facilitate the life of any student or entrepreneur: Edit online texts easily and convert the files to other formats.

Cons

I haven't come across any against it so far. Everything I needed I was able to use easily in the free version and still has free trial for those who want to have more features.
