How a Trial Run Developed Into a Systematic Switch

When you're the Director of Managed Operations and IT for a busy recruitment agency, but the business is under heavy siege from an overpriced PDF editor, you know something must be changed. Josh Linton decided to find a better alternative.

As all roads lead to Rome, people find their way here… to Wondershare PDFelement.

To avoid being tricked and to get a sense of other departments' opinions, they reached out to see if they could get a trial run.

Recport is a recruitment agency based in Dublin City, Ireland, with nearly 2 decades of experience in the industry. The company operates 5 specialised recruitment agencies and employs over 100 consultants and professionals who deliver high-value recruitment solutions.

With a growing international footprint, Recport has expanded into India, Portugal, and Germany. This rapid expansion across the globe has driven new demands for more efficient and scalable PDF solutions across multiple business fields.

New Solution With Budget In Mind

Recport relies on a PDF editor for daily operations. However, the existing solution's complex licensing and high pricing made it difficult to distribute to the required personnel. This limitation created inefficiencies, especially in departments that require e-signatures and daily format conversions.

Recognising the need for a more affordable and effective alternative, the IT team began searching for a new solution that could reduce costs without compromising functionality.

Through online research, they discovered PDFelement. After reaching out to the sales team, the IT team at Recport received free trials for 3 users. During the pilot, they found that PDFelement offers all the essential features required for day-to-day operations. It can seamlessly and effortlessly replace the software they were previously using.

More importantly, it is more cost-effective and can be scaled to the company's demand. By deploying a single, unified PDF solution across multiple departments, Recport streamlined workflows and reduced compatibility issues.

Universal Needs, Uniformly Liked

Many departments at Recport find PDFelement to be an integral part of their daily operations after implementation.

One of the most used features is the digital signature, especially among the senior management team. They use PDFelement to speed up the approval process and validate documents with confidence.

The marketing team uses PDFelement to create customised fillable PDF forms, making data collection more efficient.

The finance department uses it to merge invoices and timesheets, which can be organised and shared on short notice.

After testing PDFelement in different departments' real-life operations, employees at Recport found that it covers all the functionality they need, nothing was missing. PDFelement is intuitive, reliable, and has seamlessly replaced their previous PDF editor, delivering identical capabilities at a reduced cost.

Significant Move… Satisfied Result

Recport is highly impressed and satisfied with PDFelement's performance. The transition was smooth, and the IT department at Recport found it easy to implement the software. The IT manager would also like to send special thanks to Emily for her responsive, supportive guidance throughout the trial and onboarding.

Overall, the switch to PDFelement has delivered significant cost savings without compromising any essential functionality, making daily operations more efficient and effective. With confidence and certainty in mind, Recport looks forward to continuing the use of PDFelement.
