Which one is for you

Pick Conga if

  • Fits if your company already runs Conga quotes or contracts
  • Works for regulated teams that need regional data handling

Look elsewhere if

  • Skip it if you want to try signing today, as there is no self-serve sign-up
  • Watch out: no price is published, only a request form
  • Too light on detail for a small team, since e-signature is one part of a larger suite
  • Not for you if you want to buy signing alone, because it is usually bought with CPQ or CLM

Pick Docusign if

  • Fits if your clients and partners already expect a Docusign envelope
  • Works for teams that want web forms and payment at signing on one plan, Business Pro

Look elsewhere if

  • Pricey if you're a small team, at $25 a head a month even paying the year upfront
  • Tight if you send a lot, as each user gets 100 envelopes a year, or 10 a month on monthly plans, and extras are billed one by one
  • Skip it if you might cancel early, as the annual plan billed monthly holds you to the year after 30 days
  • Watch out: SMS delivery is from $0.36 a message and ID checks from $2.40 each after the first five
  • Not for you if you need SSO, Salesforce, HIPAA or data residency, which are sold only on custom Enhanced plans

How we grade them

1.6GPACongaWeak2.6GPADocusignGood
Value for money
CNo price is published, only a request form, so it sits in the middle with no evidence either way.
D$75 a month for three on Standard, paying the year upfront ($25 a head, or $30 on the annual plan billed monthly). That's this category's dearest tenth, for 100 envelopes each a year, so your 240 fit with a little to spare. Web forms, payments and bulk send need Business Pro at $40.
Free plan and trial
FNo free plan or trial is listed, and the site points to demos.
CNo free plan, but a 30-day free trial, and the listing doesn't say it needs a card. After that even Personal is one user and 5 envelopes a month.
Features
CSigning with several signer checks, plus CLM, CPQ and document automation. Signing is one product inside a bigger suite.
BTemplates, signing order, an audit trail, reminders and AI summaries for signers, then web forms, payment collection and bulk send on Business Pro. It covers the whole job. SSO, HIPAA and Salesforce wait for the custom Enhanced plans, which a small team won't miss.
Ease of use
CNo store rating on record, and a suite sold through sales needs setup first.
A4.9 from about 830,000 App Store ratings, the most in this category. Signers don't need an account either.
Platforms and integrations
CWeb only, with no integrations named on the pages that were read.
BWeb, iPhone and Android, with Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Dropbox and Box on every plan, and 1,000+ integrations plus the API from Business Pro. There's no desktop app, so it stops at a B.

Worth knowing

Conga

  • Conga publishes no prices; its pricing page only offers a request form, so no plan or starting price is recorded.
  • E-signature is one product inside a larger suite, so it is usually bought alongside CPQ or CLM.
  • The site points buyers to demos and sales contact rather than a self-serve signup.

Docusign

  • Standard and Business Pro include 100 envelopes per user a year on annual plans, or 10 a month on monthly plans; envelopes past the allowance are billed one by one.
  • Annual plans paid monthly are a one-year commitment: cancelling after the first 30 days means paying the rest of the year.
  • SMS delivery costs from $0.36 a message and ID verification from $2.40 an attempt, after five of each included once on Standard and Business Pro.
  • SSO, Salesforce and NetSuite integrations, HIPAA support and data residency are sold only with the custom Enhanced plans.

More comparisons

How this page was made

  • The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
  • The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
  • Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
  • The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
