How we grade them
| 2.2GPASignableFair | 2.6GPASignWellGood | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | C£40 a month billed yearly, plus VAT, for unlimited users and 300 envelopes a year. Split five ways, that's around this category's middle per head once pounds become dollars. One person alone pays the full £40, and going over the allowance costs a fee per envelope. | 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 | CNo free plan, but a 14-day free trial with no card needed. Pay As You Go skips the subscription, from £2.60 an envelope, which suits the odd document but isn't free. | 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 users and templates, advanced signatures, an eSeal, two-factor checks for signers, reminders, signing order and AI field placement. The gaps the listing names: bulk send, teams, the API and qualified signatures start on Business, sold through sales. | 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 web app where you set up templates, users and roles before it runs smoothly. | 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 | BWeb only, but it connects to Google Drive, Google Docs, Dropbox, HubSpot, Slack, Zapier and Make. No phone or desktop app is listed, and text-message checks for signers work in the UK only. | 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. |
| Best for | UK teams with many senders and few envelopes | small teams that want unlimited documents cheaply |
