How we grade them
| 3.0GPABoldSignVery good | 2.4GPAQuickSignerFair | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | A$15 a month for three on Growth, billed yearly ($5 a head, $15 a head monthly), with 50 envelopes each a month and 10 templates. That's under 60% of this category's cheapest quarter. Unlimited envelopes on Business is $15 a head. | ABusiness is $5 a user a month, or $48 a year, with no cap on documents. That's under 60% of this category's cheapest quarter, so a small team signs as much as it likes for very little. Professional at $15 adds bulk send and SMS checks. |
| Free plan and trial | BThe free Essential plan gives one user 25 envelopes a month, 2 templates, signer authentication, reminders, branding and the apps. One person could really live on that. Paid plans have a 30-day trial too. | CThe free plan is 5 documents a month, PDFs only, up to 3 signers and 5 MB files. Fine for the odd form, but a busy month runs past it. The paid plans have a 14-day trial. |
| Features | BSigner authentication on every plan, templates, in-person signing and team sharing on Growth, then SSO, AI field detection and HubSpot on Business. Bulk send, SMS, WhatsApp and ID checks cost extra on use, but they're there. It covers the whole job. | CUnlimited documents, templates, signing order, reminders and certificate-sealed PDFs that Acrobat trusts. The gaps: Business stops at 10 templates, bulk send and SMS checks need Professional, and the listing names no signing links, forms or payments. |
| Ease of use | CThere's an iPhone app but no store rating on record yet. It's a web app where you upload a contract, place fields and send, with templates to set up first. | CNo store rating on record, and no phone app. It's a browser app where you place fields and save templates, simple enough, but there's still some setting up. |
| Platforms and integrations | BWeb, iPhone and Android, with Salesforce, HubSpot, Zapier, Xero and Power Automate, plus an API on its own plan from $30 a month. No desktop app, so it's a B. | CWeb only, and its site lists no ready-made integrations. Other software connects through the REST API and webhooks, on Professional, at $0.30 a sign request after 50 free. |
| Best for | cheap e-signatures with a generous free plan | cheap e-signing with no cap on documents |

Worth knowing
BoldSign
- Growth caps each user at 50 envelopes a month and 10 templates; unlimited envelopes need Business.
- Bulk send, bulk links, SMS and WhatsApp delivery, ID verification and the Salesforce integration are add-ons charged on use.
- The API is a separate plan: from $30 a month with 40 envelopes, then $0.75 per envelope.
- Premium shares 250 envelopes a month across all users; going past that is billed pay-as-you-go.
QuickSigner
- The free plan takes PDFs only and is capped at 5 documents a month, 3 signers and one document per sign request.
- API use needs the Professional plan plus $0.30 per sign request after a one-time 50 free; prices above 500 requests a month are quoted.
- Bulk send, teams, SMS verification and editing a sent request are Professional features; Business allows 10 templates.
- Its site lists no ready-made integrations with other apps; connecting it to other software means using the API and webhooks.

- Professional adds one-time codes sent to a signer's phone, editing a request after it is sent, bulk sending and teams.
