Smallpdf, a practical way to edit PDF
Comments: The mobile version of SmallPDF Which is the one I use the most since it is practical, you just take out your phone and you can scan any document, you can edit PDF documents and convert Word, Excel or any image files to PDF format.
Pros:
What I like the most is that it is a practical application to edit PDF files, it is not heavy software that is installed on your PC, this makes it very easy to use since it is used through the browser.
Cons:
What I don't like about small PDF is that the document editing part lacks some tools, it's practical for small editions, but when better text or font recognition is required, it's not as good as other PDF editors.
Smallpdf review
Comments: I really like that you can do anything you need to your PDF file such as Compress, Convert, Sign and Merge. This is really useful to our company.
Pros:
The ability to sign PDF files online, easily.
Cons:
The fact you need to make an account for the website.
Smallpdf seems to be a Personal Info collection lure
Comments: It is FREE to edit but there is a cost to access the edited version. You must create an account and agree to a seven day trial or purchase a plan. Either way, your personal information is collected and shared.
Pros:
Opening and editing a PDF was relatively seamless. However, it is not free.
Cons:
SMALLPDF.COM is a top result for searching Free PDF Editor and advertises as FREE PDF Editor. However, while editing the pdf is free, you cannot access your editing PDF until you join the community and sign up for a 7 day trial or purchase an account. Either way, this "FREE" edit is used to collect your personal information as explained in their privacy notice.
Easier PDF management
Comments: It made my job easier because before to edit a PDF file I had to go through several processes or applications so that the document would let me edit it, now it is much simpler
Pros:
It allows me to better manage PDF documents by being able to compress when they are very large files and being able to edit the original PDF file with text or images. All its functions make it easier to work with PDF and from my mobile it is also magnificent with the application that never fails
Cons:
In reality I like everything and I have nothing that I dislike or that affects me
