Acrobat aporta ventajas en el trabajo colectivo de la compañía en el manejo de archivos donde cada usuario puede dejar cometarios y hacer ediciones directamente, ahora el equipo de trabajo realiza todo en menos tiempo gracias a que se trabaja bajo el mismo archivo.
Pros
Me gusto mucho la versión profesional se pueden editar todo tipo de archivos en PDF, no es necesario usar un programa de edición de diseño gráfico, además se puede agregar firma digital e innumerables funciones de edición de textos en formato PDF.
Cons
Los archivos muchas veces tienen problemas técnicos y a veces se dificulta la edicion de los textos.

Editing/annotating PDF's is a vital need for many individuals and especially businesses. While Acrobat DC is a great tool, its price can be quite prohibitive. As such, while using Acrobat DC is in and of itself a good experience, when taking into consideration its price, Acrobat DC ends up as a subpar experience.
Pros
Adobe Acrobat DC is an incredibly powerful PDF editor, supporting pretty much every feature you can imagine when it comes to PDF editing. These features include basic tools, such as deleting/adding/reordering pages, and adding annotations to more advanced functions such as editing existing text, deleting elements on the page, and creating fillable forms. Fillable forms in particular is a very powerful tool, with Acrobat attempting to automatically detect form fields within a PDF. In addition, Acrobat DC supports digital signatures.
allowing you to edit vast majorities of a PDF including existing text. You can create fillable forms from an existing PDF that does not have fillable forms.
Cons
The main downside to Acrobat DC is its price - $15/month in perpetuity. For a program that is designed to do one thing (and it does that one thing quite well), $15/month is quite expensive. Furthermore, Acrobat DC's interface is extremely dense and can be hard to navigate. Finally, creating fillable forms can be a lesson in frustration when Acrobat's auto form detection fails.r

CutePDFReasons for Switching to Adobe Acrobat DC
Acrobat DC IS NOT my PDF editor of choice. For Mac users, Readdle PDF Expert is a fantastic option, supporting nearly everything Acrobat DC can do (outside of creating fillable forms) at a significantly lower price ($100 for a lifetime license).- Industry: Insurance

Terrible. Atrocious.
Terrible. Atrocious.
Pros
nothing absolutely nothing. definitely not the tool or the support
Cons
I was told this program had the best digital signature tools. I started a free trial to test it. Free trial did not work for digital signature... Adobe then told me I had to set up a different trial.... This fixed nothing. So the problem was sent to some other department . A day later they emailed me that it could not be fixed. I go on line to cancel the trial. Remove the application ... and now all my pdf files are gone. Every damn one of them. Every receipt. Every file.. Every form... gone. Every file I click on just says "File cant be found " And when I call adobe to get them back I get told they wont talk to me unless I start a new trial.
Time for a law suit.

Overall Acrobat has been a solid product. Users are familiar with the product, the menu is intuitive and the product is solid. The only issue I have is the monthly costs when comparing to user needs. The old 'Standard' and 'Pro' licensing created a lower cost effective option but this doesn't present an option anymore.
Pros
Acrobat DC is feature rich with functions like secure digital signature. It is the standard product for PDF management.
Cons
The subscription model can be more costly if the user isn't a heavy PDF editor. If the user needs only basic PDF function I would look for another product.
Reasons for Switching to Adobe Acrobat DC
The suite of Acrobat products made it easier to have a single monthly subscription with the additional Adobe products we subscribe to.- Industry: Government Administration

I'm very sensible to light themed programs due to a visual condition, being able to modify settings and preferences to create a darker theme made me extremely happy, i was able to rely on this software to read several hours a day without eye strain.
Pros
I believe that adobe has at least to huge strengths, the first one is the user experience, i find really comfortable to use the program, scroll down progressively and even find words, highlight text or fit in different ways the pages. What's more, this software comes with great document management and security, since it provides encryption and passwords for files and various formats at the same time.
Cons
Document editing on Adobe feels limited, signatures and fillings could be improved since the free version is kind of limited.
