Which one is for you
Pick Sertifi if

Look elsewhere if
- Not for you if you are outside hospitality, since it is not a general signing tool
- Watch out: the free plan covers receiving card authorizations only, not signatures
- Watch out: paid packages show no prices and need a quote
- Tight if you are a brand or management company, as packages are customised with an account manager
Pick SIGNiX if
- Fits if you work in banking, title or insurance and want a tamper-evident digital signature
- Makes sense if you also need remote online notarization from the same vendor
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you want to try before paying, because there is no free plan or trial
- Pricey if you want your logo on it, since custom branding is $499 a year on top
- Not for you if you need the API on a small plan, as it is Enterprise and quoted
- Watch out: the page shows $180 a seat but also a 100-transaction minimum billed at $300, and does not explain how they fit
- Watch out: remote notarization is a separate product from $299 a year plus $10 a transaction

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.
