Customer Reviews

We have found our experience with Zamzar over the years we have used it to be fantastic.

They were receptive to a tiered pricing structure as our requirements changed, have a friendly support team that is always helpful and their API that we use daily to send documents to for conversion has always been available and had no issues.

Technical Director | Real Estate

The service just works. We've tried other file conversion services in the past, and the results were very disappointing.

With Zamzar, the results are consistently good. Also, their support is friendly and responsive.

Chief Architect | Computer Software

We needed a product to upload HTML content, convert and download as a PDF. Zamzar's API provided not only the service required but easy to understand stepped-process to implement.

This business process was critical - but I don't believe we ever had a failure over years of daily use.
