> **Kyle** | *18 August 2025* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: What I like most about this app is that I get to manage and edit all of my PDF documents in ONE place\!
> 
> **Cons**: After using the app for a few weeks, I was pretty surprised to find myself using it again and again without any down sides.
> 
> This app seriously helps me out as a Retail supervisor. I get to work and all my documents are in one place, which makes my already-busy day a lot smoother.

### "Bluebeam: Professional PDF editor" — 5.0/5

> **BISHNU** | *19 January 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Most Liked: The sheer ability to edit PDF files. This is our go to PDF editing tool in the company. It is strictly professional where we can collaborate in real time.
> 
> **Cons**: Its slightly overpriced for a beginner or even a small company. And, for a beginner who has no experience in PDF editing can find this software humbling.
> 
> I would rate this a sold 9/10. It is extremely smart tool for PDF editing with real time collaboration. It is tailor made for professional work rather than a personal one.

### "Frustrated with support." — 4.0/5

> **Jerry** | *10 February 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The product is fantastic for drawing, markup and collaboration.&#10;PDF documents are a breeze to navigate.&#10;Overall the product itself is great.
> 
> **Cons**: For no reason, I was notified that my subscription had expired (6 months before it was supposed to).&#10;I was off line, unable to use my product and I was shuttled from one person to another that was 'looking into it' for over a week while my workflow was basically shut down.
> 
> Great until something occurred that no one seemed able to help with.&#10;The solution was painfully slow.
