Elkin Edgardo Gómez García General Manager Chose BoldSign, by Syncfusion® They all have similar features, but BoldSign stands out for its simplicity and ease of use. Adobe has a business model where they are sending you ads while you are using the system and the truth is that it tends to be a bit annoying and distracting at times.

And, in my experience, whenever we tried to add a particular feature in our integration, Docusign would force us to upgrade to some higher level. I found … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose BoldSign, by Syncfusion® These competitors provide mediocre and feature-bloated offerings that are simply a pain to use. For example, building templates in the aforementioned tools is like pulling teeth. The editor is finicky.

Incentivized Helpful? Andre Masson Development Team Lead Chose OneSpan Sign DocuSign was probably one of the alternatives but to be honest we just did not evaluate alternatives at all. We were simply happy to integrate easily with an approved (by our financial institution) eSign product. We just moved from the POC to a "That's a go" decision given the … Incentivized Helpful?

User Testimonials
	BoldSign, by Syncfusion®	OneSpan Sign
Likelihood to Recommend	BoldSign is perfect for the small business or startup that needs a legally-binding solution to digitally sign contracts/agreements between 2 parties or more. It's no frills and super easy to use, and requires no training to understand how to use. BoldSign is less appropriate for organisations that require complex integrations and automation capabilities for their digital signature solution. Incentivized Jason Xu Founder Read full review	It is well suited for financial professional field. At the moment, i cannot think of area that will be less appropriate. It all comes down to if the admin office or head office can accept OneSpan as authorized software. Often enough, program can be very good but not recognized by head office due to its compliance issue. For example, in the Canadian regulatory rules for investments, sometimes it requires companies to process/store documents in the same country. If there is a cross border issue, it will be a big compliance issue. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	BoldSign was incredibly easy to pickup and start using. The UX was very intuitive and required no training or guidance. BoldSign's signed contracts repository is a very easy-to-access and navigate system to store and access all our signed documents. BoldSign customer support has always been incredibly responsive and helpful. Incentivized Jason Xu Founder Read full review	One can set up a workflow in which one can specify the order in which signatures have to be done. Customer service is great and always ready to go the extra mile. Pricing is very transparent, and there are no hidden charges. Yamini Pandey Manager Read full review
Cons	It would be great if BoldSign saved my signature in my account to use each time It might be easier if you could select signature (or any heading for that matter) and click where you want it instead of dragging it to where you want it. It would be nice if completed document’s automatically saved to a selected folder for safe keeping. Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Search capabilities can be improved by a great extent. We still can't search documents by name of the signatory Pricing seems a bit high when compared with other players in the market Data importing and exporting capabilities can be improved drastically Tapan Jain Data Analyst Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	Great product. Great price. Free for up to 25 signatures for one persons account. Having a group using it under one account is even a great price. Much cheaper than all the alternatives out there and does the same stuff the others do Verified User Anonymous Read full review	I don't see any reasons to change as their solution covers all my need for now. I could make even more integrations but that might be something that I will do down the road. I'm used to working with the interface and my data is all there as well. Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Usability	Very straight forward to use and customers understand the service. No questions or need for me to explain. The free tier is amazing and has locked me in as a customer for when we're big enough to need the paid version. Incentivized KR Kevin Rodriguez Director Read full review	Easy to use design and tool Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Reliability and Availability	No issues to date. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	No answers on this topic
Performance	No issues with performance. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	No answers on this topic
Support Rating	At the beginning I had a question so I emailed them. Response was super quick. Other then that I have not had to contact them for any help. System is easy to use Verified User Anonymous Read full review	The product is so well designed and built that we rarely need to reach out to customer service. But we have reached out to them in case of downtime, and we have always gotten a satisfactory response. We never had to follow up, as customer service executives were very responsible. Yamini Pandey Manager Read full review
Implementation Rating	Very easy...I was able to start using it immediately. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	No answers on this topic
Alternatives Considered	The price-performance ratio is better with BoldSign. If I want to scale up to the next level and then go back, I can do it easily with BoldSign, unlike Adobe, for example. If you want to try another application, that's fine. They all do the same thing. In my experience, the ease of use, sourcing and functionality was perfect with BoldSign. NH Nadia Huerta Sales Manager Read full review	My experience with OneSpan in the customer service has been very positive. However, since my experience with OneSpan is much more recent, most of my technical experience with OneSpan includes technical areas that were not available in other products at the time I was working with other products.

Scalability	Not sure as I don't have a need to scale. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	No answers on this topic
Return on Investment	So far I have only used the free version I am sure that the paid version would be extremely beneficial if you did a bunch of contracts. I just started using the program, so not too many contracts yet. If I need to upgrade my subscription, the price will be well worth it. Verified User Anonymous Read full review	It has done what we got it for. It has made it much easier for our advisers to do business with clients in remote areas. It has significantly reduced the time that it used to take to open a new account. Incentivized Hamza Syed Chief Technology Officer Read full review
