How we grade them
| 2.4GPAQuickSignerFair | 2.6GPASignWellGood | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | 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. | B$30 a month for up to three senders on Business, billed yearly ($36 monthly). That's $10 a head for unlimited documents and templates, inside this category's cheapest quarter. A fourth sender adds $12 a month. |
| Free plan and trial | 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. | CThe free plan is one sender, one template and 3 documents a month, with the API and the audit trail. Handy for the odd form, nowhere near 20 a month. There's no trial of the paid plans on record. |
| Features | 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. | BUnlimited documents, template links, bulk send, branding, conditional fields, data validation, signer attachments, in-person signing and 50 SMS credits a month on Business. Nothing in the listing shows a gap in the core signing job. |
| Ease of use | 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. | CNo store rating on record, and no phone app. It's a web app where you set up your templates and fields once, which is quick enough, but there's still setting up to do. |
| Platforms and integrations | 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. | BWeb only, with Close, QuickBooks Online, Xero and thousands more through Zapier, plus an API with 25 free documents a month on every plan, webhooks and an MCP server. |

Worth knowing
QuickSigner
- The free plan takes PDFs only and is capped at 5 documents a month, 3 signers and one document per sign request.

- Its site lists no ready-made integrations with other apps; connecting it to other software means using the API and webhooks.
SignWell

- API documents beyond 25 a month are charged per document.
Key features

- No document caps on paid plans
- Business and Professional allow unlimited documents a month, with limits instead on signers and files per sign request.
- Templates and signing order
- Save a document with fields and recipient roles as a template (10 on Business), set the signing order and send automatic reminders.
- eSignature API
- A REST API creates sign requests from documents or templates, embeds signing in your app and sends a webhook when signing is complete.
- Signer checks and bulk send
- Professional adds one-time codes sent to a signer's phone, editing a request after it is sent, bulk sending and teams.
- Security and audit trail
- ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certified, with AES-256 encryption at rest on Google Cloud and an audit trail of signer IP addresses and timestamps.
SignWell

- API on every plan
- Each plan includes 25 API documents a month, then charges per document, with embedded signing, webhooks, SDKs and an MCP server.
