    Duration of ownership: 0 Days

    Strengths: That I still have a copy of an old, free-standing version on hand.

    Weaknesses: It tries to load your computer with junk when you install it, and then pesters you to death trying to sell the paid version. The fact that it has to be installed is enough to kill it for me... the old version just sits on the desktop, and when opened once, associates itself with all PDF files on your computer, all you have to do is click on any PDF file, and it opens instantly.

    Overall Evaluation: They have ruined a perfectly good little program. Whoever is in charge should be horse-whipped.

    Duration of ownership: 8 Months

    Strengths: It has a small footprint with no programs hogging system memory like Adobe does.

    Weaknesses: None detectable

    Overall Evaluation: This is a full featured PDF reader without the Adobe bloat that slows down system performance. It opens any PDF file with ease and speed. I recommend this reader to anybody as a replacement to Adobe Reader.

    Strengths: Not really sure. They say it is a smaller program and more efficient than Adobe Reader.

    Weaknesses: The main weakness and the reason I wont install it on any more computers is the update process attempts to give you a bunch of other stuff you don't need, including trial versions of other foxit products. This is unacceptable. People should be able to do program updates without a bunch of hassle so that they can make sure their software is patched as it should be. The way this software updates makes one not want to ever do it. My suggestion for foxit reader and other software developers is make updating EASY. A simple "click" and it updates it with everything you need without including a bunch of junk.

    Overall Evaluation: Poor. It doesn't matter how good everything else is. The update process ruins it.

    Duration of ownership: 2 Years

    Strengths: It is the only free PDF reader that allows you to fill forms and save them.

    Weaknesses: Slightly buggy on filling forms - occasional temporary "stuck cursor" and data save problems.

    Overall Evaluation: For free dissemination of PDF forms for folks to fill in, it cannot be beat!

    Strengths: Very fast and small download none of the features work if you do not buy the pro version

    Weaknesses: Very annoying program if you do not buy the full version

    Overall Evaluation: It was a waste of my time.
