It is often difficult to send emails that have attachments above 20 MB in our organization so SmallPdf is very useful when I need to send a PDF that comes in a larger size. > > **Cons**: Minimal complaints, but the same would apply from before where in some cases higher resolution photos that are part of the PDF can get degraded a bit in quality, but that is to be expected. Just something to keep in mind if you are using higher resolution or high DPI images in your PDF files. > > Overall I'm still incredibly satisfied with Smallpdf and I have been using it for several years. I intend to continue using it and often recommend it to colleagues looking for similar solutions. Smallpdf has been a blessing for compressing PDFS\! ----- ### "Outstanding Customer Support" — 5.0/5 > **Ibtissam** | *18 June 2026* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10 > > **Pros**: Smallpdf is very easy to use and provides many useful PDF tools. The customer support team was responsive, professional, and extremely helpful when I needed assistance. > > **Cons**: The automatic renewal process can be surprising for some users. Receiving a reminder email before the renewal date would make the experience even better and more transparent. > > Overall, I had a positive experience with Smallpdf. The platform is simple, efficient, and reliable. I was especially impressed by the customer support team, who handled my request with kindness, professionalism, and understanding. ----- ### "Simple to use yet advanced functionality making it the only document management software you need." — 5.0/5 > **Rachael** | *29 January 2026* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Continues to offer incredible versatility for all of your document management needs along with advancements with an improved editor that is more streamlined and AI integration to help clean up documents. Still simple to use with expanded functionality. > > **Cons**: Still no dislikes with Smallpdf. Remains the most advanced yet streamlined interface that is simple to navigate. > > Wonderful overall experience that keeps me coming back and relying on this tool as my go-to document management tool. It has clean looking interface, is simple to interact with, yet offers incredibly advanced document management abilities with new and improved advancements. ----- ### "Awesome service \!\!\!" — 5.0/5 > **Nathan** | *28 April 2026* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like the versatile of the product itself it is far from one dimensional. I am really satisfied with the prompt assistance from the supprt team and their understanding. A big thank you to Michelle\! > > **Cons**: I don't think there is much cons other than the premiums that are abit high but understandable based on what is being supplied. ----- ### "Flexible and effective" — 5.0/5 > **Carol** | *19 May 2026* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is flexible - more so than Adobe. Also seems pretty good functionality. I used it for collating scanned documents into one PDF. > > **Cons**: Nothing bad. I would just like to know what I will miss out on if I cancel Adobe - I don't want to pay for both. I suspect SmallPDF is cheaper and also has that flexibility. Plus I found it more intuitive than Adobe. > > It is one of the IT tools I have a good feeling about and enjoyed using. I look forward to comparing it with Adobe when I get time. ----- Page: 1 / 41\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/178267/smallpdf?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/178267/smallpdf) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
