Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Advertised as a really good pdf editor. The few times I used it, I enjoyed it. It does what the acrobat editor does at a much lower cost.
  • NONE. This system did not do what I purchased it for.=
  • N/A.
  • The graphics look and sound user friendly. The upside in my experience is that I now know I can convert a word to PDF without any additional programs by using Microsoft print to PDF.
  • It could make PDFs from images, although the customization was limited and the PDF I made turned out to be uneditable even with their own software.

Cons

  • Paid 99 dollars for the lifetime use of the pdf editor. It was a rip off. I used it for about a month and then they told me I had used it on a second device. That was not true. So the bottom line is I used the 99 dollar product 2-3 times, and that was all I could use it for. Bad purchase. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is too good to be true.
  • The Flattening option didn't work AT ALL, so I immediately tried to cancel and these people WILL NOT REFUND MY MONEY. This company is trying to force me to send them my personal laptop information and I absolutely REFUSE. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY!!! BUY SEDJA INSTEAD.
  • Difficult user interface, couldn't merge files from a right click on the desktop.
  • It only looks and sounds user friendly. In actually it's worthless to me. I need to be able to convert a word doc to a JPG . First I tried converting to PDF and then used PDF to JPG. The conversions were not the same as the original. The tech support told me it was because I used the draw app. I did not use the draw app. Support said, in order to convert a word to pdf, I had to first use Microsoft print to PDF and then to use their PDF to PNG. What good is a PNG when there is no PNG to JPG option? In Adobe I could actually edit a PDF page i.e. remove text. It appears that is not a function of PDF Candy. If it is there, it's not an obvious method.
  • Expensive, missing the features it used to advertise the purchase to me, breaks when a file is too large despite every page saying that there are no limits on the desktop version. Sent a two sentence form letter and then did not follow up when I reported errors.

Pros from Real Users

Pros

  • I don't know anything about the product. I was trying to open one file one day and I stumbled across this product that said it would open it for 99 cents. I had no idea that I was signing up for anything and it certainly was not clear that they would charge me $50 a month for something I'm really not even sure if I ever downloaded or used. Unfortunately it took me 3 payments to realize they were taking the money and they are not a decent enough company to do the right thing.
  • Scammers!!!! I will make sure you will pay for what you did. You just wasted my time emailing you with my refund. You never refunded it to me!!!!
  • No pros poor service unclear recurring charge refund denied very disappointing experience not worth it at all forever.
  • I used it for a one time test and it was ok. I wanted to compress two videos but the final product lost quality.
  • There are no pros ! Just stay away from this website as this is subscription trap and obviously this is a SCAM.
  • N/A
  • Nothing just for them to steal money and tell you that they can't refund you even though you dont need theire service
  • Nothing extraordinary. You can find similar features on other apps which will not scam your money. This app is more like an enticement and entrapment to make you pay unwillingly.
  • Professional appearance of document but took a lot of tries to have it downloaded professionally and then I had to print & scan it to be able to email it.
  • Nothing
