Pros

I have always had a great experience with this software easy and accessible gets what you need to do done quickly and both parties are happy.
And the ease of use with the convenience it provides for all your signing legal documents makes this a great product. Had given me overall a great experience each time that I had used it.
I really like the fact that it is a very secure website to sign important and legal documents and send them safely over the internet.

Pros

I love how it will easily integrate with other programs like Word or Excel. It also has frequent updates to the software and has great support.
My favorite and most used feature is its seamless integration for the Adobe creative package which also includes photoshop, indesign, and illustrator.
Worth the cost if you run a business that would use it a fair amount, and has excellent customer service.

Cons

Every contact with customer service was a failure. It's a real shame that such a big company can release such a bad API / SDKs...the worst API integration I have ever made.
At first, I missed one document that I had to go back and sign once I found the correct email. This is probably more user error, but it did make it more confusing.
My business did more for our customers than our contract required - because it's the right thing to do. I was very disappointed in DocuSign that they automatically charged my credit card.

Cons

It's a little difficult to go back and forth between these functions. There are certain problems with text scanning that cause some characters to be misinterpreted.
Horrible customer service, difficultnti work with HP printing software. It is also not in real time.
Adding comments can be a struggle. I end up spending too much time while at it.

Makes E-Signatures Seamless

Reviewed 5 years ago

I designed a form in Adobe Acrobat and had to have a physician's signature on the form. This required an official signature, therefore the third party.

Pros

It has turned into the standard for verification of what would otherwise have to be a bona fide "ink" signature.

Cons

I wish it was integrated into Adobe Acrobat more easily. I didn't notice that there was a plugin or anything.

Great in the post-Covid world

Reviewed 2 years ago

It’s been good since I worked out the kinks. Not using it as much lately, but it’s still a good option.

Pros

It’s easy to get valid signatures from people around the country, colleges who are away, and those working remotely. Also has a part11 complaint version that works for our research documents.

Cons

I wish document setup was easier. The interface does not make it easy to create templates that might easily adapt to different circumstances. I think Adobe prepare feature on acrobat does this much better. lol

Docusign is intuitive and consistent across multiple devices

Reviewed 2 months ago

I use it regularly for both personal and professional documents and it is far better than Adobe Acrobat. Sometimes you don't have a choice but whenever I do, Docusign is the choice I make.

Pros

Docusign is so intuitive and easy to use. It is simple and clearly understandable whether you are using your smartphone, a tablet or a laptop. I also really appreciate the ability to store my signed documents or download them to my own storage choice.

Cons

I don't have any complaints or improvements - it's really good just the way it is.

The quintessential utility of DocuSign

Reviewed 2 years ago

DocuSign has great ease of use, is convenient and offers satisfactory services. However, to be differentiated from the crowd it needs to offer better file sharing and management services through collaborative workspace designs.

Pros

DocuSign offers an unparalleled methodology of ensuring utmost accuracy and authenticates signatures which facilities the confidentiality of documents. It also ensures that duplication and forging of signatures are prevented and thus, has bought a paradigm shift in providing authentic signatures on private documents of sensitive nature.

Cons

DocuSign doesn’t have any differentiating factor when it comes to other signature authentication services such as Adobe Acrobat or Mac Viewer . There are other document sign softwares in the market and DocuSign hasn’t established itself separate from the masses.

The pinnacle of Electronic document control and signatures

Reviewed 6 years ago

Overall this is still the leader in the industry as far as I'm concerned. Has small details on Image to PDF conversions but overall, this product is the best I've used.

Pros

Make document control from a centralized database extremely easy. After a simple sign-up and vetting process, your electronic signature is set.

Cons

The only thing I don't like is the use of their app. It seems amazing in theory but after working with it, uploading a piece of paper and translating it to PDF does not allow it to be used properly in adobe acrobat.

Priced too high for a simple feature.

Reviewed 4 years ago

There is a benefit in the ease of use of this software, but it is not priced at its value.

Pros

The software made it easy to sign pdfs through a cellphone with my personal signature rather than a typed one, and is easy to save and resend to the sender.

Cons

I originally used this on a 7 day trial for some urgent documents. Later came to realize the monthly cost is way too high. Yes, it solves a problem of signing/filling forms, but does not have much more to offer. Adobe Acrobat would be better value.

Great Tool to get Documents Signed while Working From Home!

Reviewed 4 years ago

Ever since starting from working from home I have been using Docusign. While working from home it is almost impossible to sign documents in person. Before we had to use Adobe Acrobat which can be difficult for some people. Docusign is extremely simple to use for everyone.

Pros

I love how easy Docusign has made signing documents. I love not having to search to where to sign on every page because Docusign makes it easy to find and fill in.

Cons

I don't like how difficult it is to edit the document once you sign. Once you sign it, it is done and you can't go back and edit it even if you accidentally messed up.

Great App for when you don't have the Time/Energy to use Adobe Acrobat

Reviewed 6 years ago

Overall it's a great app to sign and share documents with and to be able to keep track of clients!

Pros

DocuSign makes it so easy to sign and share documents and the reminders are also wonderful, so you don't have to keep reaching out to the client yourself. I've signed things as both a client and created things as a freelancer. Normally I'd do them in Microsoft Word and then create signature boxes in Adobe Acrobat X, but when it's a simple contract and/or I don't have time, DocuSign is a great alternative.

Cons

In both cases, signing as a client and creating contracts as a freelancer, DocuSign kept sending me emails to sign up and upgrade and such. That was very frustrating and felt spammy. The only other thing I can think of that's more related to functionality is that it's not entirely intuitive that where you place the signature box doesn't automatically generate the name and the underline for the signer. So make sure to do those manually and then place the signature where it makes sense.

Similar to Adobe Sign. Depends on your company's needs

Reviewed 6 years ago

DocuSign is fine for entrepreneurs that want to add more process and simplification to their contract signing. I haven't tried HelloSign, but you may want to look into that as a competitive product.

Pros

- Has a better mobile platform than Adobe Sign - Great for small-medium sized businesses where you don't have a ton of contract to manage or need over 50 user licenses - Offers a freemium option

Cons

- Security could be better. Adobe Sign feels seems to place security as a higher priority - I prefer the Adobe Sign interface to Docusign. It feels more up to date and modern

Great for tracking/accountibility

Reviewed 3 years ago
Pros

It is easy to follow the workflow path and identify where a document gets stuck/"lost" and follow up.

Cons

It really is a good product. Much better than previously used DocuSign.

Why not free with Photoshop

Reviewed 2 years ago
Pros

Its zippy, easy to use, functional, and as effective as docusign

Cons

Its not free with photoshop or one of their other big time apps, I feel like this type of application should be freeware as it is used by an at home consumer so little

More Expensive Option to DocuSign

Reviewed 4 years ago

Started using for some hospital documents, but ended up going back to DocuSign.

Pros

I use this application on occasion and enjoy the quality of scans from the camera on my iPhone. Documents are easy to edit.

Cons

The format isn't as user friendly as DocuSign. There aren't many options to edit/ manipulate documents.

A great document tool for creative teams already using Adobe Creative Suite

Reviewed 3 months ago

Love it for what it is and help cut down on costs for additional software since I already have Adobe Creative Suite.

Pros

It's great document product that comes with the Adobe Creative Suite. A great solution for document needs for creative teams.

Cons

It's not as robust in features as Docusign is, it's doesn't work well with Zapier either.

Sign Up With DocuSign!

Reviewed 3 years ago

Very very positive experience. DocuSign makes collecting signatures so very very easy and efficient.

Pros

You won't regret it. Adobe DocuSign makes the process of collecting signatures incredibly easy. All you need is a .pdf of the document that needs signing and the email address(es) of the signers, and you're off to the races. Very, very easy to use.

Cons

I can't honestly think of a single thing I don't like about DocuSign. Well, maybe the fact that I have to upload client documents to Adobe's server ... but that's not actually an issue since most of the docs I get signed end up in the public record anyway.

I love using Docusign for getting the long paperwork done and signed. It makes it so simplistic.

I really love everything about this software.

Couldn't live without it

Reviewed 2 years ago
Pros

Editing functionalities for important documents e.g. redacting, organising pages, setting different permissions and integration with other platforms e.g. docusign.

Cons

It's very expensive for basic use and more expensive when you add other users, which is difficult for a smaller organisation.

Easy to use from users familiar with the Adobe suite

Reviewed 5 months ago
Pros

We also use DocuSign in our organisation but Adobe Acrobat Sign allows us to sign things off on the fly without having to go through multiple steps on DocuSign. We tend to use this for more internal sign offs and use DocuSign for external sign offs. Since our users are more familar with Adobe Acrobat Reader through working in our organisation or coming from different organisations, it is not a difficult journey to empower our users to use this service.

Cons

Nothing in particular, works alongside Adobe Acrobat Reader

Good PDF editing but not always easy to use

Reviewed 2 years ago
Pros

I like the PDF editing features, like highlighting and writing custom text. Signature feature is OK. We still prefer DocuSign.

Cons

I have not found an easy way to sign and then send a document to someone for countersigning. Online PDF signature tools are just as good as Adobe, and they are free.
