Support is very responsive (which is maybe the most important fact). The tool is great. I trust the company and I believe that it will be further improved! Great stuff.

Pros

It makes my life easier. Bulk converting ANY file on this planet with Filestar is much easier than anything I tried before. However, the best feature is the Trigger Folders feature. That is nothing short of amazing. If a file is added to this folder, it gets automatically converted, resized, or organized in another way.

Cons

Sometimes files fail to be converted. I don't know why - it seems to me that it happens regularly and a bit randomly. That needs to be improved. Furthermore, my Laptop slows down a lot when using the application. Might be due to my laptop being already 4 years old, but it would be amazing if I could still use my software while Filestar is converting.

great experience.. does what it should do.

Pros

FileStar is one of my fav apps - converting docs, other file types.. it's the best. it's lightweight , easy to use, no non-sense overcomplicated UI.. constantly updated. I like everything about it. I think the team behind it really know what they're doing with a clear vision. Keep up the good work!

Cons

There isn';t much that i dont like about it to be honest.. I think it does exactly what it should do.. there's no need to overcomplicate things when they just work.

Reasons for choosing FileStar

The initial decision was made based on a really inexpensive price and the "promise" of the app functions.. after using it, we were sure it's exactly what it claims to be.. totally worth it.

Satisfactory

Pros

Saves time with a few click to edit multiple files editing with one tool rather multiple tools on other applications

Cons

I think the user interface should be made more simple for newbies

So far I am loving it! It saves me time not having to open Photoshop, Adobe Acrobat, search online for conversion tools, or use my iphone and then e-mail myself!

Pros

FileStar is basically a swiss army knife of file "skills" to have at your disposal. Whle many of its skills can be done for free using other programs, online tools, etc., FileStar takes the burden out of finding or opening those tools and just gets the job done fast. It is lightweight and incredibly easy to use. While I use a few of the skills, the one I am most excited about is the Pages to Docx conversion. I am a PC user and I get sent a lot of pages files from Mac users (despite asking them to send doc files). Before I would have to open them on my iphone, convert to Word, then re-email them to myself, or I would try the zip file hack (which didn't always work). Now I can just right click and have FileStar convert it for me!

Cons

So far I haven't found any cons - it is easy to use and does what it is suppose to. It is easy to install and very lightweight so it takes no time to open and doesn't use a lot of system resources.
