Reviews
Capable for Basics, Frustrating for Power Users
Our firm switched to Foxit from Adobe, and for everyday tasks, it's perfectly adequate. I can easily edit text, merge multiple reports, and add comments or signatures without much fuss. The Microsoft Office-style ribbon made it easy to learn. It really struggles with more complex documents. The OCR feature is very hit-or-miss on scanned contracts, often producing garbled text that needs manual correction. It also becomes incredibly sluggish and sometimes crashes when I’m working with large, image-heavy files. It’s a decent alternative if you just need the basics, but the performance bottlenecks are a real problem for my workflow.
