For routine PDF-related operations, Foxit PDF Reader has long since established itself as my preferred tool. I read a lot and take a lot of notes, and it offers all the capabilities I need to organise everything better.

Pros

Overall, I had a great time using the product. the design, the tabbed structure for opening numerous Documents, and the accessibility of all the editing tools. It's a lot simpler to use than Adobe Acrobat, in my opinion.

Cons

The free version frequently crashes, but the reasonably priced paid version has been reliable.

I start using Foxit Reader some years ago, when it was a quite small program; now it has more features and obviously it is not so small (but usually we have better PCs and a lot of space); I use mainly as PDF reader and it works really well, fast to open without slowing down. It is easy to find support and documentation on internet. If you don't want to use you browser as PDF reader and/or you need more features I recommend this product.

Pros

Foxit PDF Reader has free features that other programs don't offer, so if you are an individual and don't need the full licensed product it is a valid choice (if you run a company, choose the license plan instead). Free plugins are available (OCR, Docusign...)
Plus it runs much better than another widely used product, with no errors and random hanging.
You can install Foxit on Windows, Mac and Android; it supports the digital signing.

Cons

The tiny "ads" about the fact you are using a free version. First it was a very small program, now the installer is quite large

Using the software was fine. It does have fewer features compared to Adobe but overall satisfactory if not using e-sign features. Customer service on the other hand is missing. Can't contact anyone, basically if everything you want is online then you are good otherwise look somewhere else.

Pros

Good software overall.
One of the best adobe alternative

Cons

No direct contact for sales.
Customer Service is the worst.
Couldn't get a quote in a month.

It more limited in function than other PDF management apps, now depends witch one you need and use.
