Best for Nordic signing with national eIDs
Penneo is Nordic signing with national eIDs, case files and an archive, plus a separate Collect product for client documents. Sign Essential is DKK 899 a month billed annually for 500 signatures a year. It is priced in kroner, and the API and priority support are on Sign Pro.
Who Penneo is for
- Fits if you are an accounting or audit firm in the Nordics
- Makes sense if clients sign with MitID or other national eIDs
Who Penneo is not for
- Pricey if you sign under 500 a year, as the listed prices assume 500 signatures
- Watch out: prices are in kroner, with euro and Norwegian versions for other countries
- Tight if you want the API or a priority support line, which are Sign Pro only
- Watch out: the Caseware integration costs DKK 10 per CVR, minimum DKK 500 a month
- Skip it if you are outside Europe, since it is built around national eIDs

Keep Penneo, or make your own?
Keep it
To replace Penneo you would be making connections to other products, each kept working as those products change. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
What you could make
- Documents, templates and forms: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- Connections to other products, each kept working as those products change.
- The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
What this rests on. Penneo’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
