In the construction industry, lien waivers are extremely tedious and costly in terms of labor. With the help from Plumsail, I was able to create a web-based lien waiver process for our vendors. I was able to build and execute the form and document creation systems during the free trial period and due to our low volume, Plumsail customer service team gave us a custom plan catered to our needs. Couldn't be happier.

I would love to utilize the inkpad option in the form and have it get imposed onto our document. Would also like to see the inkpad option be a required form field in addition.

The easy Use of the software en the integration

The integration with Adobe Sign doesn't work

Very good experience. We were able to create nice templates for reports without a big effort.

It is easy to define templates where to put data and generate reports.

Sometimes, customer and users forget then limit is in the objects supported. Sometimes it is not easy to include references within documents like images or objects which can be referred.

I made the decision to go with Plumsail and I want it to work but it's been a struggle for my pretty complex 1st document. My business need right out of the gate wasn't simple.

I am currently on the fence as I see a few benefits to the tool. Word is so finnicky and I'm not having to deal with that (the use of the tokens is so much easier). The ability to create multiple slides/pages with looping over an array is fantastic.

The documentation isn't always the most clear when things seem straight forward but then it doesn't work. I hoping to get workarounds for the things it can't do. The response time from the help desk is only through written ticket system and no chat or phone and it takes overnight. No quick responses.

Excellent product and has helped us streamline processes with ease. Have used Plumsail Documents in a previous Company so it was an easy decision to use again. Works flawlessly and even has an accurate way to look at my remaining subscription 2for the month.

Easy to setup as part of a workflow in SharePoint

At the start there was a bit of setup required to get Plumsail Documents working in our workflow. Would like to see more ideas from Plumsail such as Signing Documents in SharePoint.

We are issuing client contracts, subcontractors agreement, staff employment contracts. The processess, easily automated through MS Power Automate, are fast and reliable

Solved all our complex document production needs based on MS Lists, through MS Power Automate

Nothing to dislike about Plumsail documents - it works as you would expect it

To fill in pdf form using Microsoft Power Automate

currently no cons were found in this software. I am new user so give me some time *laughs

Quite positive. Just would like to have a running subscription that prevents flows from failing due to the expiration. This interrupts our processes. Also, we would like to have a test environment. Currently, for testing purposes we are consuming credits which are meant for production.

Merge documents (text with docx) and convert docx to pdf, excel occasional

Lacking of a test set-up that prevents consuming credits purchased for production.

The use of Document Generation is very smooth.

The conversion of some traditional Chinese characters is prone to errors, which may pose difficulties for certain ethnic groups in Taiwan, and there is no option to select Traditional Chinese in the Locale.

Plumsail was so easy to setup and maintain. This small investment really packs a huge punch.

I have nothing negative to say about Plumsail Documents.

We have certificates and other legal documents that have signatures of high-ranking officials on them. Being able to lock PDFs to help prevent forgery using our documents as the source of signature images is great. I do feel that the cost for automation of just one tiny part of our Flow should not cost more than a couple pennies, so when I get pressured to find lower cost alternatives, I am sure I'll find at least one, and perhaps a pricing structure that matches our needs. Regardless, our department is becoming aware of the benefits of Power Automate and we'll definitely be using services like this at a growth rate of about 200% growth per year so services like yours will definitely see more and more uses from us.

The software integrates with Microsoft Flow (Power Automate). It offers the ability to provide Adobe Acrobat PDF document protection/encryption as a part of our Flow.

The per-use, per-month payment structure and no "Test Uses" for new deployments after the Trial period. Getting a Flow just right can be cumbersome and hampered by fear of using too many Plumsail uses. Ideal testing could be done if "Test Uses" were a feature. As it stands, our testing is now limited. For our uses, it's also incredibly difficult to predict our monthly uses. We may have one event, we may have half a dozen. The procurement system we're required to abide by as a local government entity is also extremely strict and the "buy extra if you run out in a month" does not work for us. We are 100% required to go through a procurement process that does not make buying extra uses on demand easy.

I was working good for over a year but last week my subscription disappeared and I had a disruption in my document generation (unable to send quotes to clients) when we troubleshoot our system the problem was plumsail. Turns out the subscription disappear I had to register and buy again!! luckily our documents where still there.

The ability to use our own templates to create branded documents.

There are some advance document types that are imposible to handle here: we have many indesign templates that we need to convert to power point and it limits image handling, conditional extra pages and so on.

after a long search of competing products from docusign, adobe sign and others Im always blown away how much this suite offers.

Simple, simple licensing, delivers more than it promises, delivers WAY more than products double the price

I have no complaints about this software. If anything add the ability to have multiple users on one account

Application is great, stable and simple to use. Even when I needed support, the support team replied within the next day, and they helped me through the troubleshooting, and problem solving.

The simplicity, it is as straight as it possibly could. I do not have software education background and even then I managed to set it inside an automated flow for file conversion.

The error messages are a little bit hard to understand and with the diagnosys, it takes some time to get used to it.

Plumsail Documents allows PDF generation with Microsoft Power Automate.

Its use with Power Automate is difficult to configure, but their customer support was superb and they helped us get everything set up.

Plumsail is very easy to use, the website is easy to navigate and provides reports that allow for usage monitoring and trends. I currently use the Power Automate pdf connectors and have found they are easy to employ and are reliable. These pdf features allow my applications to automate documentation tasks so the end user spends less time clicking buttons and editing documents.

This product is out-of-the-box easy to use, and easy to implement in Power Automate flows. The technical support was responsive to my inquiries.

It is a somewhat expensive. For a developer who needs to run multiple tests or experiment with an application design, the document limit can be high, and thus require an expensive plan.

Our company supports foreigners in finding work and applying for working visas in Japan. Due to the bureaucracy-heavy framework in Japan, there are a number of documents that have to be generated, completed and signed before we can lodge visa applications. We were doing this manually until recently, where an explosive increase in candidates meant we could not keep up with the admin work. Plumsail helps to automate this process as much as possible, allowing documentation to be generated from within our recruitment records and sent to the appropriate person, limiting the amount of manual labor required.

Being able to tie Plumsail to Airtable via Zapier is absolutely fantastic in generating the many documents required to arrange visa applications for foreigner laborers coming to Japan.

There is nothing in particular that we don't like, simply because most items are highly customisable thus allowing us to tweak things as required to suit our needs.

Overall experience has been a learning one and I'm glad I fought through it. Plumsail fills a need and fills a hole that MS Forms should already have in place (IMHO). I hope this stays in place and I hope to learn more in the future for more automation and simplification to our processes. If I was to have a criticism it would be cost. I understand how much this can do for us, but for a simple single instance to run when needed on form responses, it's a bit much IMHO.

The ability to auto-fill in prebuilt XL forms and reports with answers to online MS Forms questions, then to work with Power Automate to store them online, and convert them to PDF, and finally to email them to all necessary parties - was great....

The learning curve was a bit more than I was wanting to deal with. There are videos and such, but a lot of it assumes you know Power Automate already - I was learning both at once... Ultimately got it with trial & error (I think() and it suites our needs great!

I am using Plumsail to ouput fillable PDF documents with data coming from a third party application. It was easy to implement in our already existing Microsoft Flow solution.

I was easy to implement the 'Fill in PDF Form' connector in Microsoft Flow. Plumsail also offered us a custom pricing plan according to our needs which makes us save some money.

I would like to be able to flatten the PDF documents in order to bypass the following issue: I am using the Microsoft Flow connector 'Fill in PDF Form' to fill PDF documents by the produced output cause an issue when opening with Adobe Acrobat Reader. As Adobe recognize the document as fillable PDF, it automatically wants to save the file when exiting which is inconvenient for users.

It was very easy to add to a Power Automate workflow, simply apply the API Key then you are able to start word merging. The instructions are very clear and helpful.

For generating document in a batch, I would like the product to be able to have all the generated pages in one file rather than each document in one file. Did not find a proper way to do it though.

It's very simple to deploy. We are using it to fill excel forms integrated with SP online and MS Flow.

Till now, I don't experience any problem with this software. So, it's hard for me to tell anything which I dislike.

Good

The easy in setting up file conversion and generating documents from templates

Didn't miss a feature about product. No further comment

currently in the testing phase but it is a very good set of connectors that I will no doubt be using more of in my future developing office solutions. However not sure how high this monthly cost will truly go in production.

I purely purchased this product to merge PDF documents so I would have to say this feature.

The price point i was paying to merge PDF in my flow is significant

This has been a great solution for us to streamline our company's training portal.

I like how easy it is to create templates and connect them with other services like Microsoft Forms.

I think they could consider adding another price tier for people who use less than 100 documents a month.

It was great experience using this tool and made our business automation process more seamless

I am using this tool for converting excel files with invoice data convert to nice PDF reports, which works very well

So far I have not found any such major challenge or issue but I found pricing plan should be revised
