File Viewer Plus applied in the workplace
So far, so good. No complaints from myself or anyone else that I am aware of.
PROSThe ease of use and the lack of any significant problems with the program are important, as this saves time and money and anyone can use it, whether or not they are computer literate.
CONSWithout writing a full paragraph, I will say that it could be improved by combining with other programs to give a more complete "one stop shop", if you will. I have long thought that many programs could and should be combined for the business world and tailored to specific needs of the company at a higher price, but the ease of having them combined and work flawlessly together would be a plus. This is a very general statement, but as I said, different services and programs could be offered and companies could have them tailored to their needs. A win-win for all involved. Most businesses would be willing to pay more for quality, ease, and a company that would back up their product and fix issues that arose, as that would be included in the price. There would be no need to worry about different programs not running smoothly together. This is a big issue in many large companies.
Reason for choosing File Viewer Plus
Price, ease of use, some had it and used it on their personal PC's.

Finding Graphics Files Has Become Easier
It has saved me a great deal of time overall, helping me publish my magazine each month. I appreciate File Viewer Plus very much. Thank you for creating such a helpful tool.
PROSI have a library of WMF files I needed to access more efficiently. File Viewer Plus made that possible by allowing me to view them in a directory, as opposed to having to view them individually. A real time saver for me!
CONSI am forced to restart the program frequently when dealing with large volumes of files. It appears to be a memory issue, but I have plenty of memory on my system, and that is the only program that presents that problem. Also, it would be great if File Viewer Plus was able to work with CDR and AI files. I have a lot of old clip art stilling not being used anymore.

CONSI have no dislikes in File Viewer, only surprising pleasant experiences.
Reason for choosing File Viewer Plus

File Viewer works for my company
I get unusual file types that need conversion and archiving.
PROSWide range of file types available for archiving and conversion
CONSNo real problems, as I use it in conjunction with other products.
Reason for choosing File Viewer Plus
It works much better on differing files
Vendor Response
Thanks Jeremiah! We designed File Viewer Plus to be a "universal file viewer" that opens as many files as possible. It can definitely serve as an alternative to LibreOffice, but it's great to hear you've been able to open many other file formats as well.

Honestly too expensive to keep my membership.
I enjoy file viewer plus. I wish it was less expensive. I did not like that. It tried to make itself the default file opener for many types of files that I had other viewers for particularly photo video. Easy things like that I did not need file viewer for those functions.
PROSIt can open and decipher most files. Many of the files that I wanted to open and decipher it still could not. That could be my fault for lack of training just to be fair.
CONSI would like to be able to read or have translated programming language into English so that I could know what a particular line was doing. I have no programming training, but I am very curious about the programs running on my machine that are taking up a lot of energy.

Save time with technology
Saves an extraordinary amount of time
PROSMost love the ability for File Viewer Plus to translate/open content (from writing to images) that may have been created in a program I don't have, and or for some reason isn't working. In the past these glitches would cause hours of fiddling around that just wasted good time.
CONSIt looks a little clunky but works like a dream, so you can't ask more than that.
Reason for choosing File Viewer Plus
the product stood out as the most likely to help with the problems zi would encounter on a daily/ weekly basis
Vendor Response
We appreciate the positive feedback! We designed File Viewer Plus to be a convenient all-in-one solution for opening files, so it's great to hear it has helped you work more efficiently.

Slow
Very negative. I haven’t uninstalled yet, but only because I paid for it.
PROSMost important is that it needs to open MANY file formats.
CONSVERY SLOW! Software needs to be reengineered and optimized for speed. Also it didn’t view several file formats that I think it should have (I didnt keep a list). Definitely not worth paying money for!
Vendor Response
Thanks for your feedback. We've made several improvements to speed up the installation and operation of File Viewer Plus, so it should not feel slow. Please let us know if there are specific tasks in which you encounter slowdowns and we'll be happy to investigate.

It's a pretty good tool!
Overal, I am able to convert and share documents that I could not before and I am able to easily upload, drap and also drop files.
PROSI enjoy the ease and convience of using the app. I am able to read, open and view files that previously I had not been able to. I also like the ease of converting files which is a big help. In the past it has really been a time-consuming struggle when trying to convert files. This feature saves me time and energy. Lastly, I enjoy the ability to translate documents and I can use the app on the go or at home. In addition to the ability to easily access work.
CONSDoes not convert all files and I need to add more software for more features. I wish it connected to my cloud on my iphone. I wish it had a scanner when opening files and I dont like that when opening files I cannot see items right away. Delays are inevitable however at times it is slow moving. I wish the trial was a little longer and of course you feel douped into buying it to access more complex features.
Vendor Response
Thanks for the detailed review! We're happy to hear the app has helped you open many files that you weren't able to open previously. We plan to add support for more file formats and cloud storage in a future update.

The file viewer to reach for when nothing else works!
This is a program that fills a gap in dealing with files that your standard program might not operate.
PROSViewer is easy to use. When you have some questionable file, just hit this icon and the program will either open it right away or tell you it can't. I just tried to open some email files and it told me that it could not open those. I didn't really think it could open them, but I just gave it a try anyhow.
CONSThere is really nothing that I can think of. The program either works and opens the file quickly or it doesn't. It is not able to open every file there is like Dicom for example. Some security file are made to be opened only by the company that made them.
Vendor Response
We're glad to hear you found File Viewer Plus easy to use and have been able to open a wide range of file formats with it. Like you mentioned, if the file format is not supported, the utility does its best to provide as much information about the file as possible.
