The cost is much less when you consider payments are not indefinite. > > **Cons**: Nothing bad to report. Bluebeam is far superior to Adobe. So far we have not found any flaws in the software. > > A great alternative to Adobe…much more user friendly and affordable. ----- ### "Great program\!" — 5.0/5 > **Raymond** | *February 6, 2025* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Ease of use. Intuitive user interface. Very useful for PPDF editing and measuring. > > **Cons**: Switching between computers is a bit more involved than I would like. > > Wonderful, I use Bluebeam Revu daily. This is my default PDF program. ----- ### "Problems with subscription and support team not very interested." — 1.0/5 > **Gus** | *February 17, 2025* | Civil Engineering | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is a good pdf editor. It is a good pdf editor. > > **Cons**: I purchased the license and couldn't get my subscription to work. The customer service team tried a couple of time but didn't bother spending too much time to fix it. I had ask cancel and ask for a refund. ----- ### "Versatile PDF Editor" — 4.0/5 > **Daimin** | *October 22, 2024* | Architecture & Planning | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Very versatile PDF editing software for people to use especially for engineers and architect like me. Love the cut and paste and measuring function of the software > > **Cons**: The shortcut commands of the software are too long and cumbersome to use because most of them require 3 key strokes like measuring requires ‘alt shift L’. Shortcuts should be maximum of 2 key strokes, not 3. Provide autosave function and more videos on how to be an expert user. Provide function to enable users to change small caps into all caps \& vice versa without the need to rely on additional plugged in app of another add on software. > > Overall experience is good but obviously some functions need to be improved to make it easier and more intuitive to use. ----- ### "tons of features, faily easy to use" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *October 24, 2023* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Lots of useful features. Easy to merge documents and edit files. Lots of editing tools, and once all that's done, you can also reduce file size to allow the file to compress and be small enough to attach to emails. > > **Cons**: Certain updates make it very glitchy and it will freeze frequently on me. Other updates are perfectly fine. Seems they issue a revised update fairly quickly when these issues occur. > > I use this program almost daily for work and find it to be faily simple, mostly reliable, and with all the features I could hope for without being crazy complex. ----- Page: 1 / 40\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ca/software/102481/bluebeam-pdf-revu?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ca/software/102481/bluebeam-pdf-revu) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
