I like that I can use the free version online without needing to download software or go through a complicated process. > > **Cons**: The free version has limitations on how many tasks you can complete, and some features require a paid plan. For my occasional use this is not a major issue, but it can be limiting if you need to work with multiple files. > > I mainly use Smallpdf occasionally when I need to quickly compress a PDF for uploading or sending. It is simple, fast, and gets the job done without needing a more complicated PDF program. ----- ### "Great customer service" — 5.0/5 > **rick** | *September 10, 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: ease of working with the website features, however there are so many different actions that I can't get close to using them all > > **Cons**: it's not free LOL there is not a thing that I can think of it does everything that I need and so much more > > works great for changing pdf to jpg which is the most common use for me the website is so well laid out that I look forward using it ----- ### "the renewing sequence" — 4.0/5 > **Jérôme** | *April 13, 2026* | Financial Services Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: well it's easy to use, and it does good work, when you try to merge PDF together, there is no problem, it gets done wright away. > > **Cons**: it always come up with a request to upgrade to PRO Smallpdf, and when you try not to upgrade, that's where the trouble start. > > this time was harder to reopen the product , it took 5 hours, and after several emails, finally it,s working. ----- ### "SmallPdf - a go-to tool for my lab" — 5.0/5 > **Richard** | *March 20, 2026* | Research | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Its ease of use, and its flexibility and capacity to dramatically reduce the size of pdf files made SmallPdf an invaluable resource for our laboratory. > > **Cons**: Nothing comes immediately to mind.
