Simple tool that works like WinRAR for your PDFs

I had not issue at all even as I am using mainly the portable version on my work devices.

PROS

PDFEncrypt is free to use, open-source tool that helps you to protect and lock your PDFs. It is pretty easy to use and has only what you need. Portable version is also really nice to have option.

CONS

Only downside is probably that it is not modern looking as some users are probably used to. But great for us boomers!

Reasons for switching to PDFEncrypt

I don't have to put PDF files in archive now.

PDFEncrypt: PDF encryption software that helps us to keep our confidential data safe

This is a good option for me because I got this paying very less money and getting required options which are useful for me for securing our confidential data and documents safe.

PROS

PDFEncrypt is a easy-to-use. We can simply drag and drop our PDF files into the program, select the encryption options, and then click on the "Encrypt" button. It uses strong encryption algorithms to protect PDF files. The passwords or certificates used to encrypt PDF files are stored in an encrypted format, so they cannot be easily accessed by unauthorized users. It is a very affordable software. It is available for free for personal use, and there are also a number of affordable pricing plans for businesses.

CONS

PDFEncrypt does not have a batch processing feature. This means that we cannot encrypt multiple PDF files at the same time. It is a basic PDF encryption software. It does not have some of the advanced features that are available in other PDF encryption software, such as the ability to watermark PDF files or to add digital signatures.

Reason for choosing PDFEncrypt

They were not providing required features at the required price.

Reasons for switching to PDFEncrypt

I need to pay more amount for same features.

Terrific Tool for All Your Data File Encryption Needs

I've been using PDFEncrypt for a while now, and it's been a game-changer for me. The file encryption option provides peace of mind knowing that my sensitive documents are secure. Sharing and sending files has never been easier, and the password protection for PDFs is a lifesaver. Plus, the user-friendly interface makes the whole experience so easy Thanks to PDFEncrypt, my digital life is so much simpler and more secure.

PROS

I appreciate having the file encryption option in this software because it ensures that my files have high security. It's easy for me to share and send files, and I can also protect my PDFs with a password, ensuring that only those with the password can access the file. The interface is excellent and user-friendly, making it a breeze for me to navigate and use.

CONS

It's not possible to use it on a smartphone, making it challenging for a person to use it on their smartphone. Also, a weak password can expose it to hackers. I wish this could be addressed.

Enhancing Data Security and Compliance with PDFEncrypt

PDFEncrypt solves a very big problem in the security aspect. With PDFEncrypt, we reduced the risk of data breached and saved a lot of financial loss for our organization. I can strongly say that the product is going in the right direction.

PROS

PDFEncrypt has a strong encryption capability, such as AES or RSA, which provides robust protection for our PDF files. The user interface is very intuitive and many can navigate easily. The ability to set granular access control and permissions allows me to define who can perform specific actions on our PDF files.

CONS

There is nothing more that I dislike about PDFEncrypt. But the decryption and encryption time is little slower that is what i felt. But, it purely depends on the computer configuration.

PDFEncrypt is a Windows-based software tool

Overall, PDFEncrypt is a useful tool for encrypting PDF files, especially for Windows.

PROS

PDFEncrypt is a Windows-based software tool that utilizes standard encryption algorithms to encrypt any PDF file. This utility is free of cost and available as an open-source. The process of encrypting a file is straightforward; all you need to do is select the file that needs encryption, set up a password, and generate the encrypted file. In addition, PDFEncrypt offers advanced features like the option to run a program once encryption is completed. This makes it compatible with other applications and can be used as part of a toolchain.

CONS

It doesn't offer any other features such as editing or merging of PDF files. If a user forgets the password used to encrypt a PDF file using PDFEncrypt, there is no way to recover it, and the file will be lost forever. PDFEncrypt may not be suitable for encrypting large PDF files as it may take a long time to encrypt them, and the process may slow down the computer. PDFEncrypt is only available for Windows operating system.

For PDF encryption, PDFEncrypt is a best software tool

Overall, I have experienced that this software is useful for me.

PROS

Security: PDFEncrypt provides a high level of security for PDF files, ensuring that only authorized individuals can access the contents.Ease of use: PDFEncrypt is easy to use and does not require any specialized technical knowledge to operate.Control: PDFEncrypt gives users complete control over who can access their PDF files, allowing them to restrict access to certain individuals or groups.

CONS

Limited functionality: PDFEncrypt is designed specifically for encrypting PDF files and does not offer any additional features or capabilities.Compatibility issues: PDFEncrypt may not be compatible with all versions of PDF files, which could cause issues if you need to share files with others who do not have the same software.Risk of losing passwords: If you forget the password to a PDF file encrypted by PDFEncrypt, you may not be able to access the contents of the file, which could be problematic.

Vendor Response

Thanks for your review! I'm not sure what you mean about "PDFencrypt may not be compatible with all versions of PDF files." Can you elaborate on this? To clarify: PDFEncrypt uses the PDF standard to encrypt PDF files, and thus they are able to be opened with any PDF reader software (Adobe Reader, browser, etc). You don't need special software to open the PDF. I think it's hilarious that you rated "Value For Money" at less than 5 stars. The app is Free! LOL Feel free to reach out to me directly with any questions or comments at support@pdfencrypt.net. Best regards Ryan PDFEncrypt Developer
