## Reviews

### "FoxIt is an Easy to Use Acrobat Alternartive" — 4.0/5

> **Aaron** | *October 6, 2020* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The software was inexpensive, and had all of the features I would expect from a PDF Development tool.
> 
> **Cons**: I have no issues with the software, but the manufacturer website was not very clear on which links to use so I ended up downloading the program shell, then the actual program.  So they could clean up their site UI a bit.
> 
> It does everything that Acrobat does, and in some cases its a little more intuitive.  One thing I have noticed about Adobe CS software lately is that they have confused the UI and hidden features in new places.  FoxIt does not do any of that.  Everything you need is there, easily found, and easily used.
