The cost problem with DocuSign
$15/mo Personal gets only 5 envelopes
DocuSign's cheapest plan is $15/mo but limits you to 5 envelopes. Need more? Business Pro starts at $40-65/user/mo, and every new hire adds to the bill. Sign 'n' Post Plus is $10/mo flat for 50 signing requests, Pro is $25/mo for 10 members.
API requires Business Pro
Want to generate documents programmatically? DocuSign requires Business Pro at $40-65/user/mo. That's a $400/mo floor for a 10-person team before you can write a single API call. Sign 'n' Post includes API access starting at $0/mo.
Seconds per envelope
DocuSign processes envelopes through a multi-step cloud pipeline. Works for a handful of contracts. At hundreds of documents, costs add up quickly.
100 envelopes per user per year
DocuSign Standard caps you at ~8 envelopes/user/month. Exceed that and you're upgrading to Business Pro at $40-65/user/mo. Sign 'n' Post includes unlimited signing from $25/mo.
