Enterprise level functionality but still easy to use

Pros
PDFTron was by far the most feature rich product offering we looked at. Also the fact that they don't just wrap another open source rendering engine like PDFium gave us confidence they had built their product from the ground up and had total control.
Cons
The price tag was on the higher end compared to other alternatives but for enterprise software I think its worth it for all the features they offer. They were also flexible during pricing talks to find a comfortable landing spot that worked for both parties.

Pros
PDFtron is a great company to work with. When we started using them there were many features that were missing, however they have continually worked with us to improve the product and make it a better product suite.
Cons
Occasionally support can be lacking and the developers are left to struggle through it themselves.

Overall it's a great product and you have excellent customer support. I just need some better transparency and clarity on the pricing and inclusion of our current license.
Pros
The SDK was easy to incorporate into our software and we've rolled out to our application
Cons
The biggest gap is pricing transparency. It's confusing to understand what is included, what we have access to within our account, etc.
