52% negative reviews out of 993

Users say pricing is expensive, especially for small businesses, with confusing tiers and costly advanced features.

Ricky R

Patient Financial Navigator, 5,001 - 10,000 employees.

"The overall cost of using DocuSign can feel relatively high, especially for individuals or smaller teams who may only need basic features and could find the pricing difficult to justify for their limited usage."

Most reviewers describe ease of use as a key benefit, highlighting simple setup, clear instructions, and user-friendly navigation.

Bri K

Marketing Director, 2 - 10 employees.

41% negative reviews out of 544

Some reviewers report emails landing in spam, excessive reminders, and difficulties tracking or customizing notifications.

Robert F

Sales Representative, 501 - 1,000 employees.

## Docusign's interface

Docusign’s interface is described as functional but uneven. Many users find it easy to complete basic signing tasks, others mention that navigation can be clunky. Users report issues with legacy layouts, locating documents, and managing envelopes across accounts. Mobile clarity and search logic are recurring concerns.

Shubham Gupta

Docusign’s interface supports quick signing, but navigating shared documents and tracking envelopes can slow teams down. Reviewers say legacy layouts often require training, which affects onboarding and visibility.

We have had no problems with Docusign at all, and using the program has streamlined how we sign paperwork. It helps us to save time and minimize unnecessary paperwork. The process helps the flow of work get streamlined and efficient.

Pros

Docusign is straight forward, specific on what is needed, and easy to impliment. I really appreciate how easy it is to actually SIGN the documents, which is what we have more experience with.

Cons

Setting up a docusign to be signed was a little more time consuming, but that is to be expected. I can't say I didn't like the process, thats just the least fun part about using it. It beats having to meet up with someone to collect signatures though! We never really experienced any bugs or issues using Docusign.

My overall experience with DocuSign has been very positive. It’s reliable, easy to use, and speeds up the document signing process significantly. The platform improves efficiency, keeps documents organized, and makes remote approvals simple and secure.

Pros

What I liked most about DocuSign was how fast and convenient it made document signing. It’s easy to use, secure, and allows contracts and agreements to be completed quickly from anywhere, which saves time and improves workflow efficiency.

Cons

One thing I liked least about DocuSign was the pricing, especially for smaller teams or occasional users. Some advanced features can also feel overly complex when you only need basic document signing functionality.

Reasons for choosing Docusign

We chose DocuSign over alternatives like Adobe Sign, HelloSign, and PandaDoc because it offered the best overall mix of ease of use, reliability, and industry trust. It also had stronger integrations, a smoother workflow, and a more established reputation for secure, fast e-signing at scale.

Pros

It still makes it really easy to stay organized and on top of the statuses of signatures. Easy way to capture signatures virtually!

Cons

I still find it a bit expensive, although the price seems comparable with other similar services and software.

Terrible. I would never recommend them to anybody. It is unconscionable that a company would charge so much money, and refuse to give a refund despite zero costs on their end (because I never used it more than once)

Pros

Nothing. There was nothing redeeming about them. They charge a lot of money, and I never used the product more than once.

Cons

Very sketchy billing practices. Company makes it very hard to cancel, and the plans are very expensive.

I like it and I continue to use it. I do not have any problems with the interface or user experience.

Pros

It's easy to use and very straightforward. I have signed documents and sent documents for signing and each time it has made completing documents a breeze for the workflow of each collection.

Cons

It can be bothersome that the document expires and I often have to ask for or send new links to complete the signing.

I have used this program to receive electronic documents, review them and sign them and then return them to the sender. Employment contracts have been my primary need for this program.

Pros

Fast, convenient, electronic way to receive, sign and send back documents. User friendly and simple.

Cons

Not much to dislike with the software. I have used docusign for multiple documents that required my signature and each time the experience has been positive.

Overall, my experience with DocuSign has been very positive. It simplifies the process of sending and signing documents electronically, saving a lot of time compared to manual paperwork. The interface is clean and easy to use, even for first-time users. It integrates well with other tools and helps streamline document workflows.

Pros

The best part about DocuSign is how easy it makes sending and signing documents electronically. It saves a lot of time by eliminating manual paperwork, and the interface is very user-friendly even for first-time users. The ability to track document status and get real-time notifications is also very helpful.

Cons

One downside is the pricing, which can feel a bit high, especially for small teams or occasional users. Also, there are times when notifications or document loading can be slightly delayed. The interface is generally good, but some advanced settings can be a bit confusing initially.

I haven't had any issues so far. I used Adobesign longer so was more used to it, but it isn't a big learning curve.

Pros

I like Docusign for sending out items for electronic signature. It is much faster than trying to get a wet signature.

Cons

I thought Adobesign was more user friendly. I liked the layout of it better, but Docusign gets the job done.
