Why people look for a PDFzorro alternative

Your files in one private library

Every version kept
Going back to a document as it was before an edit, with the original never changed.
Signatures from other people

What you get with PDFZyro
Edit text and pictures
Change existing text, add text, pictures and links, white out content, and add headers, footers and watermarks.
Redact for good
The text and pictures under each mark are deleted from the file, not hidden, and the redacted copy is saved as a new document.
Compare two versions
See every changed word, formatting change, page and picture side by side, and download a report of the differences.
Bates numbering
A unique number on every page, such as ACME000001, continuing across up to 100 documents.
Send for e-signature
Signers need no account, and you get their consent, a tamper-evident audit trail, a sealed PDF and a certificate of completion.
Organize and convert
Merge up to 50 files, split, compress, and convert to and from Word, Excel, PowerPoint and pictures.

When PDFzorro may suit you better
PDFZyro isn't for everyone. PDFzorro may be the better choice if:
- You want a quick one-off edit without creating an account: PDFZyro asks you to sign up so your files are kept in your own private library.
- You prefer an interface in a language other than English: PDFZyro is in English for now.
- You need to work offline: PDFZyro runs in the browser and needs a connection.
Questions and answers
Is PDFZyro free?
Yes. The Free plan has no time limit and never adds a watermark. It includes 3 edit, convert, compress or OCR tasks a day, 3 signature requests a month and 2 GB of storage. Pro removes the daily limit.
Does redaction in PDFZyro really remove the text?
Yes. The text and pictures under each mark are deleted from the PDF, so copying, searching or converting the file can't bring them back. The original stays as it is, in case you need to start again.
Can I go back to an earlier version?
Yes. Every edit or signature is saved as a new version, and you can open or restore any earlier version from the document's history.
Can my team use PDFZyro?
Yes. The Business plan, for teams of 2 or more, adds team folders, roles and admin, 1 TB of shared storage and bulk send.
Can I try PDFZyro without leaving PDFzorro?
Yes. Create a free account and try PDFZyro on a few documents while you keep using PDFzorro. The Free plan has no time limit, and Pro is free for 7 days with no card needed.
