What do you like best about Adobe Acrobat Reader?

I've been using Adobe Acrobat Reader for quite a while. It's simple to use, whatever is created on it is easier to read, it's also easier to download, it doesn't take up much smartphone, tablet, or hard drive space, and you can zoom in and out when you're trying to read and/or see objects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Adobe Acrobat Reader?

There aren't too many downsides with Adobe Acrobat Reader except for the following. One of them is that I wish it would automatically come with an editor feature. Secondly, there had been .pdf files that had been difficult to ready because the original copies weren't clean. Finally, there had been times when the font on the documents were so small that even zooming in didn't help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Adobe Acrobat Reader solving and how is that benefiting you?

I would again mainly say that when you have large documents to download, once they're converted to .pdf files, they're easier to download, and don't take up a lot of space on your devices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Adobe Acrobat Reader has a relatively large file size and sometimes resource-intensive. This can result in slower performance on older or less powerful computers, which can be frustrating for users seeking a lightweight and faster alternative for opening and viewing PDF files.
