Discover the perfect PDF editor for your budget and workflow. In our latest video, we break down our top contenders: Adobe Acrobat Pro, Nitro PDF Editor, and Foxit PDF Editor. Each offers unique features and advantages, but which one suits your business needs best? 

TechMD has helped hundreds of clients optimize and secure their IT across many industries. And, we’re happy to share our best practices with business leaders like you.  

What is a PDF editor?  

A PDF editor is software used to create, modify, and manage PDF files, allowing users to add text, images, annotations, and more to existing PDFs, as well as convert other file formats into PDFs. They also  often provide features for rearranging pages, merging multiple PDFs, and digitally signing documents. 

Why is it important to select the right PDF editor for your business? 

Which PDF editor your business utilizes directly impacts productivity, efficiency, and document management. The optimal editor streamlines workflows, facilitates collaboration, ensures document security, meets specific business needs, and is cost-effective. 

TechMD’s top three picks for PDF editors:  

1. Adobe Acrobat DC 

Pros: Extensive features, solid security, and seamless integration with Adobe’s software suite.  

Cons: A little pricey for the average SMB, wide range of features makes it somewhat complex to use, and requires a lot of resources to run. 

2. Nitro PDF Editor 

Pros: More moderately priced, Nitro is user-friendly, choosing to focus on essential PDF editing features and seamless cloud integration. 

Cons: Customer support levels vary, and advanced collaboration tools are limited. 

3. Foxit PDF Editor 

Pros: Foxit is competitively priced with robust features and a customizable interface. It offers advanced collaboration tools and seamless integration with third-party services. 

Cons: There can be compatibility hiccups with other PDF viewers and customer support levels may vary. 

TechMD’s pick for the best PDF editor 

All three picks offer powerful PDF editing solutions for small to medium-sized businesses (SMB), but, in our opinion, Foxit PDF Editor stands out for balancing affordability and functionality.
