Not only does it have the tool to edit it, I can also convert it to another format or reduce the size when it is too large. > > **Cons**: I have no problems now or in the past with Smallpdf, always in perfect use > > It allows you to work directly on the PDF file, reducing time and helping to make the work easier ----- ### "Definitely a fan of this high quality software to process PDF's" — 4.0/5 > **Michelle** | *April 6, 2025* | Executive Office | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like that we can use the organize feature to extract pages. I process payroll and print the paystubs to PDF and have individual employee folders as well as a general all folder for our use, so it really helps. > > **Cons**: I don't like how we have to reupload files depending on the module we use. I use both the Chrome extension as well as the downloaded version which actually seems to go to the website too, but I'm not sure. > > I am more pleased than not. I love this software compared to the other options out there, for sure. ----- ### "Easy-to-Use PDF Tool for Everyday Tasks" — 5.0/5 > **Joseph** | *January 29, 2026* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Smallpdf is very easy to use and user-friendly. The interface is clean, and the tools work well for quick PDF editing and file conversion tasks. > > **Cons**: The free version has limitations such as daily usage limits and restricted access to some advanced features, which can be inconvenient at times. > > Overall, my experience with Smallpdf has been positive. It is reliable for basic PDF needs, saves time, and is helpful for school and office work. ----- ### "Scam Payment Charge and No Refunds" — 1.0/5 > **Zain Ul** | *September 12, 2024* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: I did not like anything, its a scam and people should avoid it. > > **Cons**: I tried using smallpdf and did not intend to buy a one-year subscription. They had something hidden in terms and conditions, and I accepted them. I asked the support, telling them I was not using the tool. And I want a refund for the remaining period, but all they reply is this: 'I can confirm that we won't be moving forward with your refund request. Our policies are in place to ensure fairness and consistency for all of our customers and accepting the Terms and Conditions is a mandatory step for any type of account creation.' The businesses are here to support the customers and help them even if they are on mistake. But smallpdf has given me really bad experience by charging me $150cad for the service that I don't use. I will suggest other guys to use alternatives of smallpdf without hidden agreements for payments. > > Awful and disgusting, would never recommend anyone ----- ### "Loved smallpdf" — 5.0/5 > **Faten** | *December 18, 2025* | Media Production | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I have been using smallpdf for more than two years now, I loved its Quality, being free, on line, and privacy > > **Cons**: I liked less the fewer free changes I liked less the fewer free changes I liked less the fewer free changes > > My overall experience is perfect, timely and does the job My overall experience is perfect, timely and does the job ----- Page: 1 / 39\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ca/software/112567/smallpdf?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ca/software/112567/smallpdf) ## 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
