Hear From Our Customers
Egnyte's PDF Editor is the most important function when used with my iPad and Apple Pencil. I do almost all my annotations with PDF Editor, whether on plans or informal subcontractor registrations on a template, or filling out a completion notice to the client on their template.
Egnyte's PDF Editor is helpful for quality control on the construction site. For example, on construction plans during dimensional checks, I enter deviations from the target using an iPad stylus. For visual defects, I insert a photo and handwritten text at the corresponding location in the plan. For reinforcement checks, I check off the inspected positions and add text by hand if there are any deviations. I use this function almost every day.
