About

KovaPDF is a browser-based PDF toolkit with a Windows desktop app and a phone web app that can be installed from a browser. Individuals and teams can edit PDF text, annotate pages, fill or create forms, redact content, and add page numbers or watermarks. Users can sign PDFs by drawing, typing, uploading a signature, or using a digital certificate; request signatures from multiple people; and verify signatures. Other tools merge, split, compress, protect, unlock and convert PDFs to and from Office files and images, and run OCR on scans. Most tools can be used free without an account, subject to usage limits. Paid plans provide higher limits and team features. The Windows app runs selected tools offline, while the phone web app scans paper documents into PDFs. A REST API supports signature requests, certificate-based signing and signature verification; API access is priced separately.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Some of the functions that work are great, like merging documents, editing and other things that you cant do with a just a reader.
  • Interface very user friendly, easy installation and use. Very fast in getting the results after upload.
  • I much prefer Soda for its ease of use and great features. Customer support has been pretty good so far.
  • I have nothing to say but it has been a horrible experience dealing with this company. I regret ever using, if any, this software.
  • The representative I dealt with was professional and most respectful. I very much appreciate her attitude and help in settling my billing questions.

Cons

  • Most of the functions that were supposed to be included with the premium version have never worked, and it is so hard to get to customer service it's almost not worth it.
  • I tried it on several documents and the results were not satisfactory. I cancelled my account.
  • Sadly there is one missing feature that is crucial to me that I can only get on ABBYY PDF software or I would only use Soda since I find ABBYY not easy to use. But I require an OCR reader that will read Hebrew and allow me to copy Hebrew into other documents without turning it to something strange. If you ever got this fixed, I would definitely be a totally loyal fan.
  • Repeated issues with the software, poor customer support (none almost). Constantly re-installing the software, not working.
  • After everything is settled I believe it was a simple matter of misunderstanding.
