Legito vs PandaDoc (2026): which should you pick?

Pick Legito if

• Fits if you want to generate contracts from templates and sign them in one tool
• Works for legal teams that can use the lite workspace first

Look elsewhere if

• Skip it if you need ID checks on signers, as signatures are tied to an email address
• Not for you if you sign Word files, since only PDFs are signed and others are converted
• Pricey if you outgrow the lite workspace, because paid prices are quoted
• Too light for a heavy signing queue, since e-signing is one part of a larger platform

Pick PandaDoc if

• Fits if you send proposals and quotes and want to see when the client opens them
• Works for deals where the client should pay the deposit as they sign

Look elsewhere if

• Pricey if you want pricing tables, auto reminders or analytics, as they need Business at $49 a head
• Skip it if you just need contracts signed, since plain signing apps do that for far less
• Tight if you send to big lists, as bulk send, forms and recipient checks are add-ons priced through sales
• Tight if you're on Starter, which keeps the free plan's 5-template limit
• Watch out: SSO, custom roles and webhooks need Enterprise through sales, and there's no Android or desktop app

Legito

• Only PDF files are signed; other formats are converted on upload.
• Signatures are tied to an email address, and the signing page describes no ID verification step.
• Paid plans have no published prices, so costs must be requested.
• E-signing is one part of a larger document platform, which suits teams that want more than signatures.

PandaDoc

• Starter keeps the 5-template limit of the free plan; unlimited templates, pricing tables and analytics start at Business, $49 per user / month billed annually.
• The Salesforce integration, bulk send, forms and recipient verification are paid add-ons priced through sales.
• SSO, custom roles and webhooks need the Enterprise plan, which is priced through sales.
• The free plan has no third-party integrations and limits each document to 2 recipients.
