I am not sure how much our organization pays for this product, but it's totally worth it. Using this for annotation, review, document reading, signing, adding text, pictures, check boxes is a breeze.

Very glitchy and slow. Missing simple actions like being able to drag pages between documents. Also, it's not very clear the best way to edit text.
