The best e-signature tools

[{"key": "ease", "label": "Ease of use", "weight": 3}, {"key": "features", "label": "Document features", "weight": 2}, {"key": "value", "label": "Value for money", "weight": 2}, {"key": "compliance", "label": "Compliance", "weight": 2}, {"key": "integrations", "label": "Integrations", "weight": 1}]

I scored each tool on five weighted criteria: ease of use (weight 3), document features (2), value for money (2), compliance (2) and integrations (1). Every score runs from 0 to 10, and the overall is the weighted sum out of 100, so ease of use carries the most because an e-signature tool only pays off if the people sending and signing can use it without a manual.

Pricing and features were verified against each vendor's own pages in June 2026 and are written in USD, per user per month unless stated. I have said plainly where a free plan is genuine and permanent versus a time-limited trial, where a feature like payment collection is gated to a higher tier, and where something that looks built in actually needs a third-party workaround.

Honesty note: one of these tools pays us a commission through an affiliate network , PandaDoc; DocuSign and Dropbox Sign have no affiliate relationship and were ranked purely on their merits. You can see the commission did not buy position: the tool that pays us nothing finishes first, and the affiliated tool finishes second by a single point on the weighting, not on the relationship. The ranking follows the research. If a relationship changes, the disclosure changes with it, and the ranking does not move because of it.
