## Reviews

### "Foxit Review" — 1.0/5

> **Deepak** | *July 8, 2024* | Accounting Software | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Good software overall.&#10;One of the best adobe alternative
> 
> **Cons**: No direct contact for sales.&#10;Customer Service is the worst.&#10;Couldn't get a quote in a month.
> 
> Using the software was fine. It does have fewer features compared to Adobe but overall satisfactory if not using e-sign features. Customer service on the other hand is missing. Can't contact anyone, basically if everything you want is online then you are good otherwise look somewhere else.

### "FoxIt Reader - the Best PDF reader out there - and it's FREE" — 5.0/5

> **Jim** | *November 25, 2024* | Machinery | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Fast program to install and run, and has many additional options beyond a simple PDF reader.  You can comment/mark-up the PDF and save the changes.
> 
> **Cons**: The install wants to install a trial version of the Editor - easy enough to disable, but still a bit of a nuisance.
> 
> Top-notch PDF reader.  Far superior to "the other program" or Browsers.  Runs quickly, doesn't nag you to constantly upgrade.  Many options.

### "A Good Change" — 5.0/5

> **Shailyn** | *January 23, 2025* | Insurance Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Being able to customize the "skin" into dark mode and the use of the e-Sign feature.
> 
> **Cons**: Just getting used to it, it's a change from Adobe.
> 
> So far so good, I like the way it's set up, the e-sign feature is very helpful. I can customize the application to my liking.

### "Foxit PDF Reader: Simple to use" — 4.0/5

> **Thomas** | *October 27, 2024* | Aviation & Aerospace | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is easy to install and creating, modifying and signing documents is very simple.
> 
> **Cons**: If I had to choose one thing to dislike, it would be that adding multiple signatures onto one account required a bit of trial and error, and looking on the internet for help, as it was not a crystal clear process. However, that is a very small issue, as otherwise I have no complaints.

### "Best pdf reader ever used" — 5.0/5

> 
> **Pros**: Foxit PDF reader is so easy to use to handling with pdf files which can read, edit, merge and mark notes.
> 
> **Cons**: The Foxit PDF Reader can be used to read, edit merge pages and making notes on the files. Helpful and useful for daily works.
