Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • I downloaded the 14 day free trial out of desperation as I had some very time sensitive documents which required immediate PDF formatting. I still had 9 days left on my free trial, however, I called the company, and was sold a one year subscription at 50% off cost price.
  • It seems user friendly and easy to understand. Once you find that you actually have to pay for it after a trial period, it is pretty cost effective.

Cons

  • After I purchased the PDF Suites 2021 for 50% off, I received a link from the customer service agent, and downloaded it. The link said 2021 software, yet the download contained 2020 software. I called the same person back who sold me this program, and he said they were having technical issues, and that 2020 was really 2021 software.
  • I was lead to understand by the promotion material that it was free. Users can be mislead by this. Generally I found the recognition and conversion times exceedingly and frustratingly slow.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • The team at PDFrest is incredibly helpful — they respond quickly, clearly, and even took individual feature requests into account without delay. The API itself is fast, user-friendly, and well-documented. A solid, reliable partner to work with.
  • pdfRest is surely a business oriented PDF converter because it can convert all sorts of files, small and large, landscape or portrait, into splendid and crisp PDFs for all purposes.
  • It is the best documentation tool in the market for creating, editing and converting office suite documents into PDF. Really liked its simple to use procedures.
  • With pdfRest I am assured that all my word, excel and presentation files can be easily converted to PDF without migrating to other softwares. Really a reliable software with comprehensive features.
  • It is an excellent PDF conversion tool that offers a wide range of features and functionality. The platform provides a user-friendly interface that makes it easy to convert PDF files to various formats such as Word, Excel, and HTML. Additionally, PDFRest offers a robust API that allows users to seamlessly integrate PDF functionalities into their applications. One of the standout features of PDFRest is its conversion speed. The platform can convert large PDF files quickly and accurately, saving users valuable time and effort. Moreover, PDFRest's API is versatile and flexible, providing users with the ability to customize and automate their PDF workflows easily.

Cons

  • The team at PDFrest is incredibly helpful — they respond quickly, clearly, and even took individual feature requests into account without delay. The API itself is fast, user-friendly, and well-documented. A solid, reliable partner to work with.
  • Multiple file upload options is missing or I didn't find the option, either ways would appreciate some guidance.
  • I do not have complaints at the moment with regards to execution of the tool or its processes.
  • OCR feature could have been a lovely add. I hope the makers add this feature soon.
  • One area where the platform falls short is in its limited language support. PDFRest currently only supports English, which can be a significant limitation for users.
