Smallpdf has a clean UI and useful PDF conversion tools for daily document tasks. The platform is simple to use and works well for quick file editing and compression needs.

Great tool for quick PDF tasks — compress, merge, and convert without installing anything. The free tier covers most everyday use cases well. Interface is clean and fast.

Using this since College for almost 3 years now. Still one of the best tool converting almost any file into PDF. Simple and straightforward

UI is pretty and clean, which is the thing I like the most about this program, no dark mode tho. Compress function on free version barely compresses at all, it will take 1 mb off a 10 mb PDF, strong compression preset is premium only. Lacking functions like Split, Merge and Compare PDFs.

Strong preset is slightly worse than iLovePDF icon iLovePDF. Strong preset is slightly better than Adobe Acrobat DC online.

You should definitely try your compressor after Smallpdf.
