It has been fine. In the last 12 months I feel the desktop application has taken a step back in speed & overall bugginess has increased. It is fine for reading PDF's but I feel there are newer, faster & cheaper PDF applications out there that out perform adobe acrobat reader.

Pros

It is an established platform and it is known and used my many organisations.

Cons

It is too expensive and the desktop application is slow and many times does not function correctly.

My overall experience with Adobe Acrobat Reader is great for a free software. I wish that some of the best features in the paid version can be integrated in the free version and allow user to gain some performance advantage while using the software's great features.

Pros

What I like most about the Adobe Acrobat Reader is its ability to open and view as many PDF files as you want. It has a number of basic and useful features that you would want from a free software. It allows users to have that capacity to organize files in its respective folders for easy referencing.

Cons

I have been using Adobe Acrobat Reader for more than 10 years now but the least that I like about the software is the confusion that it sometimes cause especially when the software is being updated. Also, the best feature of the Adobe Acrobat Reader can only be found in the full, paid version.

I highly recommend it, importing and exporting data in Adobe Acrobat greatly improves workflow efficiency, especially when clients are remote and need to sign a document. Not to mention the practicality of sharing information.

Pros

I really liked the practicality, the ease of use, for example, I fill out a form and I can export or share it for myself and it's fantastic.

Cons

What I like least about the Adobe application is the printing mode, I can't send directly from the mobile page, I need to go to share to have the option to print.

Adobe Acrobat Reader offers a comprehensive PDF experience with robust features for viewing, annotating, and sharing documents. Its integration with Adobe's ecosystem enhances productivity, though it can be resource-heavy and occasionally slow. The free version is solid, but advanced features need a subscription.

Pros

This program is a robust, In my work that usually using PDFs we rely on this. It's a PDF viewer with excellent annotation tools, easy navigation, and seamless integration with other Adobe services. It's the gold standard for handling PDFs. In Casual workspace this is very useful.

Cons

Adobe Acrobat Reader can be heavy on resources, sometimes slow to load, and the interface may feel cluttered. Premium features require a subscription, which might not be ideal for casual users. If you are a normal user and don't much have resource to fund this maybe this is a second option but if you have this is a good to invest one.
