Cometdocs PDF Converter for Chrome Review

April 17, 2015

Cometdocs has always been a handy online document management system for anyone looking to use the cloud for more than just storage. In our previous review of Cometdocs we showed you some of its handy features and how you could benefit from them for FREE. In today's post, we take a look at the CometDocs PDF Converter Chrome extension that complements this powerful management system and makes it so much more intuitive to convert documents into different file formats.

Cometdocs PDF Converter in Action

Once you install Cometdocs PDF Converter on your Chrome browser, you'll find the app icon added to your Chrome Apps screen. Click the icon to go to the website where you can convert, transfer, store, and host files.

The next thing to do is upload a file to Cometdocs. This can be done by uploading from your desktop, dragging from the desktop to the upload area or importing from Google Drive or Dropbox. Once the file is uploaded, you can perform a number of actions on the file.

Converting Files

To convert an uploaded file into a different file format, drag the file from the upload section to the Convert box below. Then, select a file format to convert to. If you haven't registered for a free account, you will need to input an email address to receive the converted document. Then click Convert. The conversion process will usually take a few minutes, depending on the size of your file and the current server traffic.

Transfer Files

To transfer files or converted files to other recipients, drag the uploaded file to the Transfer box below, add a recipient email address and a message and click Transfer. If you are a registered user, your email address will automatically be added to the Sender section. If not, you must include that information so you can get confirmation once the document is transferred. Hit Transfer to complete the task.

Store Documents

If you are a registered user, all documents uploaded and worked upon are moved to the Storage area, where you can quickly access them and perform a number of further actions as well, such as convert, preview, share, view revisions or move them. Non registered users cannot access the Storage section. All their files and links will only be available for 24 hours, then deleted from the servers.

File Hosting

You can also host documents anonymously using a public link, which will be available for 24 hours if you are not a registered user.

Registered and Unregistered Users

If you are looking to use Cometdocs occasionally, you can do without an account. However, if you intend to use the app on a regular basis, you'll enjoy more benefits if you sign up for a free account.

Unregistered Users

  • Have 3 weekly conversions per IP.
  • Have 100 MB worth of daily transfers per IP
  • Public links have 24 hour validity.

Registered Users

  • Have 5 weekly conversions per account.
  • Have 1 GB worth daily transfers per account.
  • Have 2GB document storage limit.
  • Have no time expiry for transfer and host links.
  • Have better sharing visibility.
  • Can store documents.

All limits for registered users can be further extended by upgrading to a premium account.

Cometdocs PDF Converter and Google Drive

Cometdocs PDF Converter can also be used within Google Drive for document conversion. You simply need to right-click a PDF file and choose a conversion format, Cometdocs will do the rest for you. The app supports conversions from PDF to Word (docx), Excel (xlsx), PowerPoint (pptx), DWG (zipped file), HTML (html), ODP, ODT, ODS, PNG, JPEG, TIF and TXT. Additionally, you can create PDFs out of images, and various other document formats. The cool thing about Google Drive integration is that the conversion takes place inside the app and the converted file is also placed inside Google Drive, making the whole process super convenient.

Final Thoughts

In my use of the Cometdocs PDF Converter Chrome Extension, I found it easy to to use all the features of the app. The conversions were good, clean and quick and there was absolutely no learning curve required. Best of all, it was completely free. I recommend that you check  out this cool free extension if you do a lot of online conversion and transfers.
