With the lumin PDF our overall experience is very positive and interesting so far.
Pros
The best part with the lumin PDF is that we can edit, crop, rearrange and rotate any pages in the document unlike others we can reshuffle the pages and rotate any single pages from the entire document which is not possible in some of the PDF editor.
Cons
Lumin PDF is very good with very few flaws with editing of different fonts and alphabets.

Pros
I only use for signing the PDFs and keep them in drive, in this way I don't have to download an sign in adobe reader, I use less of my PC space and optimize work.

Pros
Easy to use and fit for purpose..
Cons
I did not extend past the trial as it is simply too expensive for how frequently I would use it... which isnt that often. It would be great if you could do a more limited option --- say buy a said number of documents rather than a monthly or annual subscription

I'm genuinely impressed by how well this software runs even on low-end hardware. The suite of features to modify & organize my documents on the go are well worth its asking price & I'm overall satisfied with it.
Pros
Since I'm using the Pro version of the software, I'm able to sync & resume work on my utilized PDF files across my home & office devices. PDF editing & exporting are the primary tools that I use, & Lumin facilitates these processes without any hassle.
Cons
My only nitpick would be the background auto-updates that increase the CPU temps & usage on my dual-core Athlon 200GE office computer when monitored using Task Manager.
Reasons for Choosing Lumin PDF

PDFelementReasons for Switching to Lumin PDF
At first glance when researching for an alternative PDF-processing software, user-rating & UI played a vital role in making my purchase decision. On that basis, I ultimately chose Lumin PDF.Response from Nitrolabs

My impressions about Lumin PDF as a Teacher in Pandemic situation

Pros
I started to use this software because it´s easy for sign documents in pdf located in google drive. You don´t have to download the document and start to looking for another software just for make a electronic signature, you can make all in a few clicks because it´s integrated with google drive. It´s make me gain a lot of time. Later I knew another features of the interface and now I open my pdf files just there.
Cons
Sometimes Lumin losts his conection with google drive without any explanation and I need to make the login again, besides that it is a great solution.

I had to use it when I ran into issues with my adobe software, and realized it was so much easier to use than adobe, and the fact that it can open and edit things right from google drive is great.
Pros
It is more user friendly and fast to use than Adobe. Even the free version does most of what I need for my job.
Cons
It would be great to have more options available in the free version, but overall it is a great affordable software if you do have to pay.

Overall, I love this program and use it on a weekly basis! Definitely makes things easier, as well as keeps all of my PDF documents in one place.
Pros
One of my favorite features of Lumin PDF is that it automatically saves my digital signature, so it's incredibly easy to add it to a new document. I can open documents in Lumin PDF directly from my email, or Google Drive. I frequently use this program in my line of work, and I wish I would have known about it sooner. It's the easiest program to use for modifying fillable PDF documents.
Cons
The only downside to this program is that you have to purchase a subscription to be able to use all of its features, but that's not abnormal.
