What do you like best about File Viewer Lite?

Super practical because I can open files of different formats in one place and I have all the information of the document I open: type, size, location, date of creation, modification, number of pages. Another thing that I like is that it gives me the ability to edit the images with borders, effects and adjustments of color, brightness and contrast. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about File Viewer Lite?

With the free version you can only edit images, however, to make an edition of other files such as video, Word, Excel or audio, among many other formats you must purchase the Pro version. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering File Viewer Lite:

It is a practical program, easy to use and very useful to view any file. Supports a wide range of formats, including audio, image and video. It also offers important and valuable information about the open file. You have to take into account that in the free version you can only edit images, if you want to edit and convert all the files you should opt for the Pro version, which has a somewhat high cost for individuals but not for companies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is File Viewer Lite solving and how is that benefiting you?

With this program you can open multiple formats, including those of unknown origin, in one place without having to resort to different programs or locations. Added to this we have all the information of the document and the ability to edit images. For any company this represents an advantage in saving time and cost.

What do you like best about File Viewer Lite?

This software has the ability to view documents in pdf, what I like most is that I can access from my phone without having to turn on the computer. It is easy and simple to use, the security and protection it provides to protect documents is excellent. Maintains until the end the way the document is made, edits quickly and I can also use it wherever and whenever I want. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about File Viewer Lite?

When I make a document and then edit it, the file increases in weight and this influences since sometimes I don't have much capacity to save it. Its consumption capacity is large, I must have enough space on my computer or mobile device to be able to save it, and it is not only because of the program but also because of the amount of files that we handle and also it does not allow to forward files to other people. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about File Viewer Lite?

I really consider that it is a very complete tool, but I consider in the user interface the sizes of the tools icons should be reduced, because sometimes I would like to visualize more than one page at a time and edit them simultaneously, but it is not possible, because the icons occupy a large part of the screen obstructing the visibility of the pages.
