Our company purchased Syncfusion Essential Studio less than 2 months ago because we needed a third-party component to work inside .Net using C# that will convert a wide variety of files into PDF, so that we can bundle into 1 final PDF. These file types could include, but not limited to, Word, Excel, HTML, Text files, Images, etc. We used another component before but their limitation was multiple worksheets in an Excel file, since it was only able to convert the first worksheet. And that was very important to our clients. Syncfusion Essential XlsIO Excel converter has no problems converting multiple worksheets. It also converts Word documents very well. We did have an issue because of customizations on our end with some word documents, but Syncfusion support team and developers have worked side-by-side with us via their Direct-Trac Support System to help us get over the hump. Their response time is always consistent. We report a ticket during working hours and there is always a response by the following morning. Other than the support, the help material they provide is very good. I've used other third-party components where the documentation was very vague and outdated to the current version. Syncfusion sample website and documentation are the complete opposite.

We have been very happy since purchasing Syncfusion, and so are our clients, now that they have their new PDF Bundler using Syncfusion's Reporting Edition's components. Even though they only started using this new component recently and I'm sure issues will arise, I have a peace of mind knowing that I can always count on Syncfusion's support team to help me out should I run into an issue I can't resolve using their Knowledge Base.

I would definitely recommend!

I was specifically looking for a program that would allow me to read in a PDF file with a form and then fill it and save it either as the same file or a new one. It also needed to be able save the form data so that it could be uploaded on its own. The ability to easily create forms from scratch was also necessary. A nice feature of Syncfusion PDF is the ability to read a flat PDF and write it out with additional info, effectively filing it. I tried a number of other programs before Syncfusion PDF and they tended to meet some but not all of my needs. In fact one of them had several bugs in it – including failing to rename fields on a copied page that I dropped it. They still have not got back to me to say ithey have fixed it.

Syncfusion PDF is by far the easiest to use PDF creator I came across. Their online support is excellent. I raised a couple of queries which were answered quickly and satisfactorily. A couple of bugs which I did find were acknowledged, verified and fixed within 48 hours. I was so satisfied so that I tested the XLS and DocID components and bought the Reporting Suite instead of just the PDF.

Highly recommended.

We have utilized Syncfusion's Essential Studio Reporting edition products for around four years now. The developer installation is quick and easy and it comes with hundreds of useful code samples to get started. With the Reporting Edition I've mainly used the Essential PDF portion, it is simple to create PDFs on-the-fly with their framework. Licensing is easy because it is done per developer, so if someone else joins your team you just purchase a new license or if it is a replacement you send them an e-mail and they transfer the old license to the new development team member.

I've also found that their contact support is quite knowledgeable in technical information and responsive (less than a day) via their online Direct-Trac helpdesk system. Their online knowledge base is also a good resource. Overall, it's a great package backed by a reputable company that cares about the products and support that they deliver.

我的需求是要在系統中能夠直接產生Excel, Word, PDF檔, 而不須要安裝這些軟體. 找尋並下載測試了數家元件廠商的產品, 最終決定採用Syncfusion開發的產品. 採用Syncfusion的元件開發系統很容易上手, 因其語法貼近Microsoft VBA, 所以能夠加速程式的開發, 這也是我們決定採用Syncfusion的主要因素. 採購後的技術支援經驗也讓我印象深刻與滿意, 回應迅速並針對元件的Bug依預訂時間如期交付HotFix, 讓我們的系統開發不致因此停頓或需另詢其他的Solution. 感謝Syncfusion提供如些優良的產品及其技術支援團隊的協助.

My needed to directly generate Excel, Word, PDF files, but do not need to install the software. Downloaded and tested a number of the components and ultimately decided to use Syncfusion developed products. Using Syncfusion's component developing system is very easy, due to its syntax draws close to Microsoft VBA, so to speed up the process of development, this is what we decided to adopt the main factors Syncfusion. Procurement of technical support experience also makes me impressed and satisfied with, responsive and components according to the time of reservation on time Bug delivered HotFix, let our system development will not therefore need a pause or seek another Solution. Thanks for providing such as some excellent Syncfusion's products and their technical support team for assistance.

DOCIO- excellent product to create native Microsoft Word documents. Used to replace text, mail merge and format conversion are so easy to deal with using Syncfusion. Not only the products are of top notch and the customer support is second to none. Responsive and all sample codes are working to illustrate many tricks that can be done with the product. Very pleased with my purchase.
