### "Critical in Todays World"

May 12, 2025

5.0

I use Adobe Acrobat daily to view, edit, store, and share PDFs. It's easy to use to collaborate with other team members. We use the fill and sign feature often and it makes getting a signature so much easier.

Pros

I like that I can view store and share PDFs easily and access them from any device. . The Fill and Sign feature is critical in todays world.

Cons

There isn't anything that I didn't like about Adobe Acrobat. Everything is easy to understand.

### "Adobe Acrobat in the Workplace"

December 18, 2025

5.0

I love using Adobe Acrobat and want to be able to be more versatile in the program. Additionally, it has been really helpful when making adjustments to templates we've had. This can be improvements, grammatical fixes, or even adding in checkboxes.

Pros

We have acrobat 2020, and it has been so useful when editing PDFs. There have been times when we couldn't find the original word document and just want to make adjustments to the PDF. Additionally, I like the endless possibilities of how you can customize a PDF as well.

Cons

The biggest con about Adobe Acrobat is that it can be difficult to edit certain parts of a PDF if it is formatted a certain way. I also wish there was a guide or walkthrough on how to use Adobe Acrobat.

### "Adobe Acrobat: the only PDF management software you need"

February 28, 2025

5.0

I love Adobe. I use it every day to view and edit PDFs. It also is a huge time saver to be able to convert and export PDFs as an excel file

Pros

Adobe is my go to for any PDF needs. The tools make it a highly versatile tool for creating, editing, and viewing PDFs.

Cons

The placement of the floating tool widget can take up too much space that would be better used to see the document

There are many more tools offered by Adobe and I like that Adobe has an option for Web based but also has the separate program.

### "Great program, worth the money"

December 13, 2024

4.0

In most cases, Adobe Acrobat is easy to use and exceptionally good at handling PDFs. I use it a lot for making forms and I have no complaints.

Pros

Exceptional functionality with an easy-to-use interface. It's easy to navigate and can do basically anything imaginable with a PDF

Cons

The OCR function is less than perfect. I find that it struggles pulling text from images or trying to read handwriting much more that some other (often free) options.

### "Great Tool for Business Documents "

April 17, 2025

5.0

Easy and convenient tool for my business documents. User friendly and intergratable with other software, such as Microsoft 365.

Pros

It has so many functions for creating, sending and maintaining documents. You can even add security to files, edit pdf files and collaborate with your team members easily.

Cons

That you must pay for basic services such as creating fill-in documents.

### "I have experiences with Adobe "

October 31, 2024

4.0

My overar experience with Adobe is good. I would recommend it to anyone. Looking for a software that will organize and upload documents, signed documents. Read documents to you.It is a good thing to have on your side

Pros

I enjoy the fact that if I had large documents being sent to me from either a manager, my higher-ups for a co. Worker acrobat, Adobe have the option for read aloudware. I know you're gonna have to do all the reading myself.I can also organize all my emails and photos anything that sent to a dope resuperated and organized

Cons

Cost of monthly membership hit the pause surprise cheaper.More and more people would use this software and see how amazing it really is

[Google Forms](https://www.capterra.com/p/176571/Google-Forms/)

It seemed a lot easier to me. Wouldn't have to worry about losing my files more p. D fs my emails contacts messages from bosses. None of that, I could just locate it. Create a file name that file and arrange. However I see fit with the floppy discs, you happen to sit it down months and months in veneers.Go by and then realize you need that floppy disc, or you're fired

### "Adobe is great "

August 10, 2025

5.0

I’ve been using it for quite a while for creating the different files of our students, it has a nice friendly interface so it makes it smooth to use even on small screens.

Pros

I like Adobe Acrobat, it’s easy to use with a good smooth interface, I like the fact of being able to search thanks to its OCR feature and it also lets me quickly scan files. It’s also excellent for managing PDF files

Cons

The only downside is Acrobat is kind of heavy as a system, it takes up a lot of internal memory and sometimes it’s slow when opening certain large files. When that happens it can be a bit annoying, especially if I’m in a hurry.

### "Classic option: Good for basics, Pro version needed for many tasks"

November 9, 2024

3.0

There’s a pretty big difference between paid and free, and it is more of a gateway product. Once you start getting frustrated with its limits, you tend to need to more to another tool. However, it does have more options than most standard pdf editors.

Pros

I would definitely say Adobe is the original standard for a PDF editor and signature tool. It’s powerful and can do a variety of tasks, including simple edits that prevent you from needing another solution. It’s less commonly used as a signature tool in my experience but for those smaller companies, it could be nice to avoid multiple softwares.

Cons

It feels overly expensive if purchasing solo and not as part of the cloud. I have ended up using other more cloud-based online services to save money on the monthly cost. It is also finicky to do some editing (i.e. it’s less good at formatting) better for filling in, removing pages, and signatures. You run into major limits unless you pay, and it’s annoying to use the free version once you’re used the full version.

### "Industry Standard"

March 4, 2025

3.0

Pros

It allows you to manage the PDF files within the most common tasks: merge, split, compress, convert, etc, although most of these features are only available in the Pro (paid) version. It is Tier1 application when we talk about PDF editors - probably the most well-known PDF application. It offers some security features like password encryption/protection. It is available in different desktop/mobile platforms. It's integrated in Adobe Cloud.

Cons

Is one of the most expensive PDF tools in the market. It runs slow in old computers. Most of the "cool" features are only available in the Pro version (the free version only allows you to view and comment the documents. All the editing or conversion options are not allowed).

### "Adobe Acrobat"

December 2, 2025

5.0

I’ve modified my usage several times, from quick reviews to full client presentations, and Acrobat keeps up every time.

Pros

It’s reliable for preparing client-ready PDFs, adding signatures, commenting, or optimizing file sizes. I also like how consistent the exported documents look across devices—no formatting surprises when clients open them.

Cons

Some advanced editing tools feel a bit hidden, and navigation can be confusing at first. I wish the interface was slightly more modern and straightforward.

### "Adobe, an everyday tool"

May 25, 2025

Overall, Adobe Acrobat is a tool I use everyday to view, edit, comment, e-sign, and print my PDFs. It's something I go back to everyday.

Pros

I love to use Adobe Acrobat as an editing tool for my PDFs. It allows me print, edit, comment PDFs in an efficient way.

Cons

The free version limits the user from using a lot of tools and the price to unlock these features are expensive.

5.0

Pros

Adobe Acrobat enhances PDF creation, viewing and navigation in one place. The pro version offers optical character recognition (OCR) tool that allows users to convert scanned files into editable PDFs.

### "Automated forms has enlarged my professionalism"

June 26, 2025

5.0

It makes the documents look professional with powerful OCR and editing equipment however large rich graphics files can bring down performance.

Pros

The OCR in Acrobat makes it a breeze to get scanned contracts in a searchable, editable document. I apply it every day to replace wording, rearrange pages and then share.

Cons

I sometimes encounter lagging when loading huge files with tons of images. When editing or page swapping the program may freeze to a few seconds.

### "Great for Everyday Use!"

October 27, 2023

5.0

Pros

There is such an ease to sending out documents for customers to sign electronically. It can literally all be done in one spot with Adobe. The customers love that documents can just be sent via email and they are returned to us in that same fashion. We use this all day everyday!

Cons

Some of the updates were a little difficult to get a hold of at first, but it just took more time of using the program with the updates in place.

### "My Simple PDF Assistant"

October 23, 2024

4.0

I'm currently using Adobe Acrobat after using another product for years. My needs are fairly simple including converting files to PDF, being able to add a signature to business forms, editing text occasionally, and being able to view, share and print documents. I'm enjoying not having to learn a lot about the program to use it efficiently. I intend to continue utilizing it with my business.

Pros

I enjoy the ease of use most. Pretty simple to do what I need with it. The price seems like a fair deal and I'm pretty happy with the product after about 8-9 months of use now. I'm always looking for ways to be more efficient and keep costs down. Adobe wins so far!

Cons

I was a bit concerned with the history of security flaws and patches but after a little research I'm confident in their ability to stay on top of security. Overall, I don't feel very safe using anything online anymore but it's a requirement to compete in almost any business in this day and age. Adobe has a better track record than many.

J’UTILISE ADOBE ACROBAT POUR MODIFIER, SIGNER ET ORGANISER MES PDF AU QUOTIDIEN. SUPER COMPLET, MÊME SI UN PEU TROP POUR DES TÂCHES SIMPLES.

Cons
