Overall Satisfaction with Adobe Acrobat DC
We use Adobe Acrobat DC for one specific client account in particular in order to coordinate with the client's multiple agencies that provide different functions to the overall brand creation and management, including PR, creative, planned media, web development and SEO. The program allows us the provide feedback and edits to internal memos and marketing materials without having to coordinate as many calls between five different agencies - which ultimately is a huge time saver.
In addition, the majority of executives at my firm work remotely and often need to sign documents, invoices, etc. So the signable PDF from either a desktop or mobile device incredibly improves the efficiency of getting a needed signature. It's a big time saver to not have to do an "old school" scan, save to my desktop and email the document, to then have the signer do the same on their end.

Pros
- The signature mobile app lets anyone sign an existing PDF document, providing efficiency when needing signatures from colleagues who work remotely.
- The feature that allows you to add or edit text in the original font is incredibly helpful. Before, you could add text to a PDF, but if you didn't have the same fonts on your system, an already built-in font was used instead, creating a non-uniformed document. So once edits were made, you had to recreate the entire PDF.
- The Photoshop capability to scan documents is convenient, especially when traveling and need to send documents such as expense reports.
Cons
- Expanding the license to allow the program to be installed on more than two PCs.
- Better editing and organizing capabilities from Androids.
- Add an "undo" function.
- I save a lot of time - and therefore money - because I can more efficiently edit and comment on documents that multiple people or firms are collaborating on. Rather than having a two hour phone call to discuss everyone's input and edits, each individual can spend a half hour to review and edit, and then we can hop on a call and discuss a more finalized report.
- The only negative impact is that time isn't saved when working on-the-go from a smartphone.
- Adobe Reader
I have only ever used Adobe Reader beforehand, which has much less functionality and capabilities. Adobe Acrobat DC is a whole other ball game.
