About Docusign

Docusign is the company most people think of when they hear e-signature. Its eSignature product lets you upload a document, place signature, date and text fields, send it to one or more signers in order, and track it to completion with an audit trail and certificate. Higher plans add reusable templates, bulk sending, payment collection, conditional fields, web forms and advanced identity checks such as SMS delivery and ID verification. Docusign has expanded into what it calls Intelligent Agreement Management, adding contract drafting, AI review and repository tools. It integrates with a very long list of business apps, including Salesforce, Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace, and offers a widely used API. Pricing is per user with envelope limits on the entry plan, and costs rise quickly with add-ons. It runs in the browser with mobile apps for iOS and Android. Smaller businesses often find cheaper services sufficient, but large organisations value its ubiquity and compliance coverage.

Best for: Organisations that want the most widely recognised e-signature service and deep integrations.
