What do you like best about FreeFileViewer?

It opens a whole bunch of files types, including .doc and .docx (older ms word and newer ms word, basically). It also opens pdf documents, which is great because it's an alternative for adobe. It has open licensure, so independent contractors like myself can use it when I'm doing work between contracts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FreeFileViewer?

The visual appeal isn't the best - adobe reader looks better. Because its open licensed, some of the integrated features, like sigining pdfs, isn't available. I'd like to be able to pay for advanced features, if that option was available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering FreeFileViewer:

Try it out. You might not be able to use it like MS Word, but you can open more file types with this one program in comparison to every different program Windows needs to open each varying file type. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is FreeFileViewer solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use it to open documents when Windows is unsure of how to open a file (b/c it happens, sometimes, with pdf and word docs.) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
