I like the usability of Foxit PDF Editor. The UI is pretty simple to navigate, and it has all of the tools that I need. I'm not lacking in any feature, and overall, it's pretty easy to navigate. I was using Adobe PDF before this, and it wasn't too much of a learning curve to switch to Foxit PDF Editor. I also appreciate that it offers a discount for nonprofit organizations, which is great for my team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My biggest issue with Foxit compared to Adobe Acrobat is page rotation. Maybe I'm not using it correctly, but it'd be nice to have rotation arrows directly on the toolbar. This would be a significant improvement for both usability and my productivity. Secondly, my other issue is with downloading the desktop app. The navigation on the account page isn't very intuitive, and when I need to install the app on a new device, it takes quite a bit of searching to find where to download the desktop app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like best about Foxit PDF Editor is that it makes working with PDF files simple without feeling too heavy or complicated. Editing text, adding comments, merging files, and filling forms can be done quickly, and the interface is easy to understand. It also opens PDF documents faster than some other PDF tools I have used, which helps when working with multiple files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One thing I dislike about Foxit PDF Editor is that some advanced features require a paid license, which can be frustrating when you only need them occasionally. The interface also feels a bit crowded at times because there are many tools and options available. For new users, it may take some time to find specific features or understand where everything is located. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Foxit PDF Editor for handling and processing multiple client forms, and I find it very efficient as it does not hog memory and resources, unlike Adobe. Even with large files that use a lot of JavaScript, Foxit runs fast and doesn't bog down computer resources. Managing and editing forms is much easier and far more intuitive than Adobe, and it just runs clean and fast. I routinely set up forms for clients to input data for collection and to eventually print paper documents for signing, and I find Foxit to be much easier in this area. The initial setup was very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish the print icon could be placed on the main ribbon instead of the top bar. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Honestly, the thing I like the most about Foxit PDF Editor is that it does what it says it does, and it does it well. So you can edit PDFs. I like that it is an affordable solution, but you also get additional paid features that are extra nice to have for less than the market rate, which allows us to do more. We can do things like e-signatures and document approvals that weren't possible before, and we're getting those features for less than what we were paying for just a regular PDF editor in the past.

I think the interface very much caters to more of a Windows audience. I wish the interface had a bit more of a Mac feel. It definitely feels like Microsoft Word or Microsoft Excel, which is fine. I think for our use case, I just wish there was a little bit less of a clunky ribbon up on the top of the software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I handle many patient documents like lab reports, ultrasound reports, and discharge summaries. I use Foxit PDF Editor to open and review these files quickly. It is easy to use, and I was able to start using it without much training.

I often highlight important findings and add short notes while reviewing reports. It is also useful for writing online prescriptions and making small corrections when needed. The merge option helps me combine multiple reports into one file, which makes patient records easier to manage. As a medical educator, I also use it to prepare medical notes and mark important topics for teaching students. I use it regularly during the day, and it works smoothly with other systems we use, so managing files feels simple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One small issue I notice is when working with scanned patient files that have many pages, sometimes the text is not perfectly clear for selection, so highlighting specific lines can take a little extra effort. This usually happens with older scanned reports.

Also, when I open very large combined patient files, the first loading can take a few extra seconds.

Overall, these are minor issues, and they do not affect my regular work in a big way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the organizational level controls and the ease of user enrollment with Foxit PDF Editor, as it keeps everything clean and simple. I find their window management while multitasking very effective, which helps when I have 7-10 PDF files open, making it easy to navigate and keep organized. As someone involved in IT, I appreciate not having to hold users' hands through the setup process. The initial setup was 'easy peasy', which was a big plus. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The signature placement was sometimes wacky, but in the end, it worked as it needed to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recently I have used some of the most advanced feature of Foxit pdf editor and this software has now split, merging and reordering pages feature for complete control documents management. It also helps us in editing scanned documents for extra resources and time saving in our business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have been using Foxit pdf editor from quite a while now and my observation on this software is that the new users face challenges in accessing all the advance features. Also they struggle a lot to find the required tool for themselves so I would recommend their developers to provide training sessions for their new users Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really appreciate Foxit PDF Editor for its intuitive interface and comprehensive feature set. It feels familiar right from the start, especially for anyone coming from Microsoft Office, which means there's virtually no learning curve. The editing capabilities are robust, allowing me to modify text, images, and layouts directly in a PDF as if it were a Word document. I also notice its fast performance, even with large files. Additionally, it offers excellent value compared to Adobe Acrobat, delivering most of the same core functionality at a fraction of the cost. The built-in OCR, digital signatures, and document conversion tools all work reliably, making it a true all-in-one solution for document management. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are a few areas where Foxit PDF Editor could be improved. The most noticeable issue is that some features are buried quite deep in the menus, which makes them harder to discover and slows down the workflow until you learn where everything is. The OCR functionality, while generally useful, can be inconsistent — results vary depending on the quality of the scanned document, and sometimes manual corrections are needed. I have also encountered occasional minor bugs, particularly when working with complex or heavily formatted PDF files. Another pain point is that software updates require administrative privileges, which can be a friction point in a corporate environment where users do not have local admin rights. Lastly, the transition from a perpetual license model to a subscription-based pricing structure is something that not all users find appealing, especially for those with more basic needs.

Foxit PDF Editor has introduced several useful improvements recently. One of the standout features is its enhanced AI powered tools, which make summarizing, rewriting, and extracting key information from PDFs much faster and more efficient. The interface also feels more streamlined and responsive, improving overall usability. Additionally, the collaboration features, such as commenting and shared reviews, have become more intuitive, making it easier for teams to work together on documents. The improved performance and faster loading times are also a big plus for day to day use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Foxit PDF Editor is a strong tool overall, but there are a few areas for improvement. The interface can feel a bit complex for new users, and some advanced features are limited to higher tier plans. Performance can slow down with large or complex files, and real time collaboration could be more seamless. Improving OCR accuracy and simplifying the overall user experience would make it even better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I still like the general ease to use Foxit considering as with any vendor, there are going to be differences, which is not always a bad thing. So for this part, I would say unchanged. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only other issue if any and I understand is this concept of when you purchase a perpetual license, that if anything, I know things change and releases change with that. But to get to the point where things don't work so well later, is the thing I'm finding when now with a number of these individual licenses that we prefer to use, that I have some on one version versus another on another version. So not only do I have to note when a user's having an issue where I might need to repair or even uninstall and reinstall the application, there's no clear indication of which version to use until I go back to the original purchase of the license. Other than that, I can deal with that but just wondering if other administrators or users have the same concerns of always having to keep up with another software version and I don't want to end up having to purchase another license for a user that has had a license, to basically make that original license null and void. Other than that, we're good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
