pdfDocs was a better alternative for Wiersholm since the application’s rich feature set and affordable pricing made it work for the entire firm.

DocsCorp [2], a leading provider of enterprise productivity solutions, today announced that prominent Norwegian firm Wiersholm [3] has switched to pdfDocs for PDF file editing and bundling. pdfDocs will be deployed firmwide, standardising the firm’s PDF platform by giving everyone access to a powerful all-in-one PDF reader, editor, and bundler.

Navid Behrouz, Chief Information Officer at Wiersholm, said, “the firm wanted to find a PDF application that was just as powerful as Adobe Acrobat, but cost-effective enough to be rolled out to hundreds of users. In pdfDocs, we found a better way to give all our staff the tools they need to work efficiently and securely.”

Firms in Norway must provide documents to the Courts in PDF format, so a powerful, all-in-one PDF file editor and bundler were critical. True redaction capabilities that burn out text rather than merely masking it and integration with Microsoft Office and its legal practice management system were also significant factors in the firm’s decision to purchase. Wiersholm also purchased pdfDocs eLearning licenses to ensure new users would be able to get up to speed quickly and easily.

Samantha Jefferies, VP of DocsCorp EMEA, said, “Wiersholm chose pdfDocs because it offered the most value across the entire user group – from people using it for basic tasks like collating and annotating documents to those needing advanced features like redaction and automated document bundling. For the whole firm, pdfDocs was a better alternative.”
