Quick e-sign with HelloSign

Reviewed a year ago
Pros

HelloSign was simple to install and use. It made it easy for me to rapidly create a contract template that I could reuse when signing up new clients. Other extra functions make it far more helpful than it seems, but I didn't really have to apply many of them because I only needed them for a small task.

Cons

I had one issue with HelloSign, and it was hard to discover the section I was looking for. I wanted to create a template contract that would be a link on my website that people could click to quickly and easily sign the document, but I couldn't figure out where to do that or how to set up the layout appropriately.

Very happy with product. Will continue use.

Reviewed 10 months ago

Overall, I love it. It has made it so much easier to comply with the state laws regarding our required notices It is easy and convenient to send to our clients and they can get back to us anytime that works for them. No longer are we driving around trying to meet up with clients to get their signature for legal purposes. Saves, time, money, and my sanity.

Pros

I like that it is very cost effective and just as easy to use as the bigger names. I recommend this product for all companies that need contracts signed. Especially contractors that have to give out legal disclosures. Simple, fast, affordable. Well worth the membership.

Cons

The only bummer is that it can be a bit annoying if you go to start inserting signatures, initials, dates, etc. and then see something in the document that needs to be edited. In order to fix the document you have to re-upload it and then redo any signature boxes or dates boxes again. However, I this is the same with any electronic signature software. They can't help it if I make a mistake on my main document, so really not that big of a deal. Also, one time I had a bit of a weird issue during the renewal of our billing but it was quickly resolved and handled by customer care.

Vendor response

Thanks so much for taking the time to share your experience, Randy. It makes a difference to folks who are new to eSignature! We'll definitely pass on this feedback about post-send editing capabilities to our product team. Thank you again!

Customer Care Team need some work.

Reviewed 9 months ago

The benefit of hellosign is that it does what it should on a basic level. In regards to price increase and level of service it really needs to work on this to justify its increase.

Pros

I like the ease of the software but some basic features need to be really considered.

Cons

Customer care team, In the instance of an emergency you can wait over 48 hours which is not ideal when you are using the product daily. The team also just seem to say I have escalated the problem via email. It is very frustrating considering prices have gone up in 1 year by over $200 and the care team just seem not care/try to solve the issues. We have had an ongoing issue since April that is not resolved. Feature wise it is a shame that Hellosign haven't added (considering they have put their prices up so high) to amend documents that have been signed by 1 party and not the other.

Vendor response

Thanks so much for taking the time to share your experience, Jenny. Our marketing team monitors all feedback we get on Capterra and works to pass it to our product team. I'll be sure to let them know your feedback about our support team and our response time. We're working to improve all the time and thank you again for taking the time.

A very good surprise indeed.

Reviewed 4 months ago

My overall experience with Dropbox Sign is very good. I must confess that I didn`t expect much and had that `more of the same` idea when I was first introduced to it. Not really. I am very happy with it.

Pros

It is environmentally friendly. I like everything Dropbox Sign has to offer, but I am a great fan of the fact that multiple people can sign the document and we will all know when it is signed. This is perfect.

Cons

I think the only thing I like least is the poor storage limits for free users.

Thank you for sharing your experience Antonio. This can be really helpful for those in their own search for an eSignature solution.

HelloSign allows my business to thrive and my clients to access contracts easily

Reviewed 10 months ago
Pros

This software has wonderful security features and is extremely easy to use. It allows me to quickly get potential clients contracts, while creating both spaces for my signature and theirs. I like that it allows me to choose how many signers there are and that I can quickly choose the necessary fields (date, signature, initials, etc.). I really like how it sends me reminders of my amount of outstanding contracts. This makes it easier to follow up and ensure that all parties have received the document. All of our clients, regardless of tech skills, have been able to use HelloSign.

Cons

I do not like that after a two week period or so, potential clients cannot access the document. It should allow you to choose how long the document is valid for, so that you do not need to resend the document after a certain amount of time.

Thanks so much for taking the time to share your experience, Molly. It makes a difference to folks who are new to eSignature! We'll definitely pass on this feedback about valid send dates to our product team. Thank you again!

HelloSign is the perfect solution for Realtors

Reviewed 10 months ago

Overall, HelloSign has filled a gap for our company where other competitors missed the mark. We used DocuSign for many years, but due to pricing and integration capabilities with our management software, we selected HelloSign

Pros

As a real estate development and management company, it is important to be able to clients and partners with documents for electronic signature. Being able to view, sign and complete the process (and repeat) is important for creating efficiencies and growing.

Cons

The one main drawback I've seen so far is that templates are not able to be edited during a send. If I need to change one field for a unique reason, I would have to create a completely new template. Also, there is no way to edit a document after being send (prior to anyone signing). It would be nice to be able to make amendments to a document (and recirculate to signers) instead of having to recreate.

Nothing fancy, gets the job done

Reviewed a year ago

We use this for internal purposes as well as having our workshop participants sign agreements. For the most part, everyone seems to use it just fine.

Pros

It does everything we need it to do: collect electronic signatures, send reminders for said signatures.

Cons

It can be clunky - and it's a little pricy for a small nonprofit. I also wish there was a way to upload one document and allow it to go out to multiple people at once, rather than having to send them out individually.

Hello...SIGN! An Electronic Signature Alternative

Reviewed 3 years ago

It's been a great experience using HelloSign. My company was able to save money by switching to this platform and it has great usability. It's been really great using this product! I highly recommend HelloSign.

Pros

I like the user interface on this product. It's very user friendly and easy to navigate between functions. I also love that there is the ability to create template and template links. The template links are a great option so you can share in bulk or don't want to type an email address in each time you send the same form to someone.

Cons

I don't like that there isn't a good customer service function. It's hard to get help and you have to contact the company via email.

Perfect for reducing paper waste

Reviewed 10 months ago

I'm mostly using this to push paperwork to employees. This became an important tool when our company transitioned to working from, and then again when we moved to paperless employee records.

Pros

I really, really like how easy it is to get it up and running. I like that it recognizes pre-existing fields and that I can fill out parts of the form without adding myself as a signer.

Cons

We didn't integrate with another software, and as someone who used DocuSign before I felt like in comparison this was very easy and straightforward. It was little annoying that you HAVE to include a subject line but not a deal breaker. Also I wish it was easier to see whose signatures are on a document from the search results. I send out a lot of policies and I use autofill so they all have the same subject line. If i'm looking for someone specific I have to hover over the details part.

Reviewed 10 months ago

We tried another popular document signing software prior to trying HelloSign. The other one was very complicated and we had to jump through way too many hoops to use it for our simple needs. HelloSign has been easy to use from the start!

Pros

HelloSign is very easy to use and navigate. It makes it so much easier to work remotely and still get our important work accomplished.

Invaluable Product

Reviewed a year ago

We used a different product for a while that was inferior and we felt was much harder to use. Absolutely no problem with using HelloSign for our online document signing program. We have legally binding documents without the extra public traffic in our offices.

Pros

Our office is a Property Management Company, managing over 400 privately-owned rental properties. We first started using HelloSign during the early days of the Pandemic. Our office was shut down for a month at the beginning of the Pandemic. We opened back up to employees, but not the public, a month later. We were closed to the public for at least 6 months. HelloSign was invaluable to us during that time. We were able to still do our job for our owners using HelloSign to get signatures on new leases, renewals and additional required paperwork from both Tenants and Owners. Without it we would not have been able to conduct our business. Even though we are fully open for business now, we still use it for renewals so tenants don't have to make the trip to our office to renew their leases.

Cons

I cannot really think of anything I don't like about HelloSign. It is extremely easy to use and our customers seem to find it easy to use as well.

Vendor response

Thanks so much for taking the time to share your experience. It makes a difference to folks who are new to eSignature! I was wondering if you would be interested in participating in a roundtable about how HelloSign is used in sales use cases. We'd love to have your voice!

Revolutionized our sign off practices

Reviewed 4 years ago

HelloSign is absolutely instrumental for my team (business development). We execute a number of agreements on a daily/weekly basis, and HelloSign makes the process absolutely seamless. It is 100% worth the cost.

Pros

I entered the workforce 10 years ago. The company I worked at was a heavy deal and sign off company, and I was constantly running around the office with a manila folder and a pen to get signatures from everyone I needed. If I lost my document before getting the 10 signatures I needed, I would have to start all over from the bottom of the chain. If HelloSign existed when I was an assistant, I would...

Cons

There is nothing that I don't like about this software. I'm struggling to think of something that frustrates me -- ah. Here's one: sometimes, when you upload a contract and there's not enough height on the lines, it's difficult to create signing fields that don't overlap. But, to be fair, that's a problem that can be fixed with us.

Ease of us, customer enjoy how easy it is

Cons

Customer service is impossible to reach, and I have tried to cancel this product numerous times but have been unable to. I reached customer service once in the past month and tried to cancel at that time. Was assured it would be canceled. I was charged my monthly payment a month after cancellation.

Okay product, but absoutely the worst customer service

Reviewed 6 months ago
Pros

Initially (several years ago) the user experience of this software was better than most, back when Docusign was the only game in town. We chose HelloSign based on that. Today that's no longer the case and there are many products with a better overall UI and user experience (UX), like PandaDoc.

Cons

The product support for HelloSign is absolutely the worst of any SaaS (cloud-based) document signing product available today. I'm not sure if it's the result of DropBox acquiring them and trying to save money, or what but if you have the option to choose a solution like this go with PandaDoc or even Docusign.

If you can open an email, you can sign electronically.

Reviewed 9 months ago

I've had trouble in the past with clients, particularly older ones, who did not know how to electronically sign a document. This is incredibly easy for them to use. I have not had one client who was unable to sign. This became very important during Covid when even local clients were unable to sign in person. I've used other software, usually through their free trial offer. When I tried HelloSign as a free trial offer, I was sold.

Pros

We send tax documents to clients across the country. Now they can easily sign them and return them to us. They do not required any specific software, apps or know-how. If they can open an email, they can sign the document. This is especially important for our older clients and our non-English speaking clients. It does not integrate with my software, but that is because they have their own program they want you to buy. But it is easy to print to PDF and drag and drop. Another great feature is the automatic email reminders that you can set up. I can tell if a client has viewed the document, signed the document, or if only one spouse has signed. But I do not have to monitor this daily. HelloSign will send reminders that they have not completed all actions.

Cons

My tax software normally issues a password for each set of documents which I cannot use when sending out the signatures. This may be something that is available in an upgrade, but not in the standard package. Although we normally verify them anyway, we take extra steps to ensure that the email address is correct/current.

Excellent Value when compared to their biggest competitor

Reviewed 9 months ago

Excellent Value for Entrepreneurs and Start-Ups. ULIMITED actually means UNLIMITED, unlike their more expensive competitor who offer unlimited until you get to 8 sends per month, then their 'fair-use' policy kicks in to charge extra fees or attempts to coerce you into 'upgrading'. Thus far I have sent 27 documents out for e-Signature. ZERO ISSUE. Smooth. I get an email verifying the Send, the Read and the instant the doc has been Signed by each party, and then a Completion Notice. Overall I wanted value for my $$$... I found that with HelloSign. Very happy!!

Pros

ULIMITED Document Send4Signature(s) actually translates into UNLIMITED without ANY 'fine print' surprise limitations under some 'fair use' policy garbage. THIS was the a huge

Cons

I wish the HelloSign APP was available in Canada. No idea why it's not. Makes ZERO sense to me. I can still access it on my phone but I have to sign in using a mobile browser, and THAT means my use can be tracked by companies like Google and Samsung... I DO NOT LIKE THAT! I like an APP that I click on and I'm right there to do business without the extra strokes and 2FA. That annoys me.

Perfect for Construction companies and builders

Reviewed 10 months ago

We love Hellosign. We don't see us switching over to any other platform any time soon. Besides the one flaw this software has, it has shown several solutions for flaws found in competitors.

Pros

The software is really user friendly. We switched over from a competitor due to the lower price with HelloSign. They fit our needs perfectly and we love that we don't get limited to how many documents we can send a year which was an issue with every single competitor I have come across with.

Cons

You can't modify a document after it's been sent. Sometimes one customer has signed but the document isn't complete until all parties have signed. This is the only flaw I have seen. It can make it difficult as sometime we decide only one customer signature is good, then we can't simply remove the other person who won't sign off of it. This makes us have to recreate the entire envelope to resend to customer and explain to them why they are resigning. Having this feature would save everyone a lot of time and would be greatly appreciated.

Easy, but missing essential functions.

Reviewed 3 years ago

Overall, for the cost, this product is great. If I need additional functionality, I'll pay the additional cost for another product. But, this does basically all the things I need for a fraction of the cost.

Pros

HelloSign is extremely easy to use. There's basically no training required. It's all straightforward. Items can be required or optional. Text fields, signatures, initials, etc., can be added by drag and drop. Templates can be created from any document. It's also very low cost compared to similar products.

Cons

We use HelloSign through Brokermint for real estate brokerage transactions. I wasn't able to save an e-sign document draft, then come back to finish it later. I had to either complete the document or lose it. There isn't a strike through feature, as is common with these products, so the workaround is to insert a text box over existing text and use underscores to strike it. I'm required to add a signer to every document, even if it's myself, but sometimes I just want to add a textbox and save it without needing a signature. Also, as an admin, I wanted the ability to access documents of users, but I don't think that's possible. I was only able to access documents to which I was the creator or a signer.
