| Tool | Free plan | Paid-tier capacity constraint | 1 user | 5 users | 20 users | Aggregated sentiment |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| DocuSign | Yes — ongoing1-user Personal plan only, not a team plan. Free-tier send limit isn't exposed as one clean vendor figure; a third-party cross-check reports 3 sends/month (36/year) | Personal: 5 envelopes/month. Standard/Business Pro: 100 envelopes/user/year.Hitting the allowance doesn't make sending unlimited — it requires a higher plan or purchased capacity | $10/moPersonal · $120 billed annually, same $10/mo whether annual or monthly | N/A — Personal is 1-user only.First team-capable tier: Standard, $25/user/mo annual | N/A — Personal is 1-user only.First team-capable tier: Standard, $25/user/mo annual. At 20 users: ~$500/mo annual | Catch: cost rises quickly once envelope allowances and higher-end agreement features become relevant — advanced workflow/AI sits in pricier IAM plans, not Personal. Praised for an easy, familiar signing flow and getting documents signed quickly from anywhere. IAM Starter (a separate product line, not an add-on to Personal) runs $45/user/mo annual and includes AI search/analysis; IAM Standard $50, IAM Professional $80. Capterra currently lists noticeably higher core figures ($15/$45/$65) than the vendor's own primary page or G2 — flagged in the footnote, not resolved. |
| PandaDoc | Yes — genuinely ongoingUnlimited seats. Vendor-confirmed: 60 documents/year, 2 recipients/document — sending blocks until the next annual cycle unless upgraded. Missing: drag-and-drop editor and unlimited eSignatures | Starter: unlimited documents/eSignatures.No monthly send cap on Starter — the Free plan's 60/year cap doesn't carry over once you're paid. API/automation workflows draw from Usage Credits instead of the document cap | $19/mo annualStarter · $35/mo billed monthly | $95/mo annualStarter · $175/mo billed monthly | $380/mo annualStarter · $700/mo billed monthly | Catch: advanced workflow/integration capability can become a paid extension — External Automations is a $39/month/account add-on on Business (included on Enterprise, not available at all on Starter). Praised for ease of use, intuitive document creation, templates, and fast signature workflows. AI Renewals (automatic contract-renewal detection) is a separate $20/seat/month add-on on Business; Enterprise includes it. |
| SignNow | No — 7-day free trial onlyNo permanent free sending tier | Unresolved source conflict: flagged, not silently resolved.SignNow's own pricing/Help pages say 100 envelopes/user/year, and its March 2026 refund policy references overage charges past that limit — but other current SignNow resource pages advertise "no envelope cap." Treat as needing confirmation from SignNow directly before treating either claim as settled | $8/mo annualBusiness · $20/mo billed monthly | $40/mo annualBusiness · $100/mo billed monthly | $160/mo annualBusiness · $400/mo billed monthly | Catch: the unresolved 100-invite question is the real cost trap here — one set of vendor pages caps you, another says unlimited, and only SignNow support can settle which applies to you. Praised for ease of use, intuitive signing, templates, and time savings. No separately priced AI add-on found for Business. G2 matches the annual figures used here; Capterra matches the monthly figures and the $1.50/invite Site License rate. |
