### Pros

"PDFsam has many features that increase its usability, such as the Drag and Drop option to drag PDF documents directly from the file manager to the application."

"Makes it incredibly simple and easy to manipulate files, I use the extract, split, or merge functions at least once a week."

"This has all the features you need when you want to to make simple edits for PDFs (merge, extract, split, rotate) in a user friendly way."

### Cons

"Everytime I attempt to use PDFSam Enhanced, I recieve a prompt to upgrade to PDF SAM Enhanced. Since I've already installed PDFSam Enhanced, this prompt merely prevents me from using the product. "

"Finally, in frustration, I upgraded to PDFSam Enhanced. When I try to use PDFSam Basic or PDFSam Enhanced, I continue to receive prompts to upgrade to PDF Sam Enhanced. "

"I attempted to login to my account via the PDFSam website, but PDFSam removed the link to login. "
