"Finally, a pdf utility that helps, not an obstacle like every other one."
What do you like best about PDFgear?

I've been working with Acrobat and PDF files since the mid-1990s. While I don’t use them daily, every time I do, it’s been a hassle—tools that used to be free now demand payment, others are bloated or missing the features I actually need.

PDF Gear is a breath of fresh air. It’s intuitive, reliable, and gets the job done without friction. The UI is clean, the functionality is solid, and I didn’t have to jump through hoops to complete my task.

I haven’t felt this genuinely grateful to discover a utility in years. If you’re tired of the PDF shuffle, this one’s worth your time Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PDFgear?

None that I have found, other than I didn't find it 20 years ago. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"PDFgear the easiest."
What do you like best about PDFgear?

I only installed it because I needed to make a small change to a document, but I discovered a whole new world inside it! PDFgear is full of features that I didn't realise were possible with PDFs. I'm already hooked. They've certainly found a new aficionado! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PDFgear?

Nothing, at the moment. The software is simple and easy to use. I haven't tested all the features yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Excellent app"
What do you like best about PDFgear?

Excellent app

I originally used Microsoft Edge because all my work with pdfs involved only reading them but now that i have to edit them also so searched for alternatives and came across a reddit post about this app, tried it and this is awesome.

There are so features like convert to / from a pdf which i used to do on a website but having an app is what i prefer so this awesome .I use it daily and it is very easy to use. Didnt had any need to use customer support so I cant comment on that. It was very to install just straight forward.

Keep up the good work! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PDFgear?

The only thing i can complain about is that i don't it has dark mode (either that or i am not able to find it). Like that is the only thing Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
