BoldSign, by Syncfusion®Foxit eSign
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.

eSign Genie has completely streamlined our tedious document process and helps us to easily manage our documents from signature to delivery and even with ongoing storage. This enhancement saves us time, money, and headaches and has been a true lifesaver for our organization and for our customers. I highly recommend it!

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.

  • The learning curve is faster compared to the last software we used.
  • It is easier to set up the templates and email messages so that the text boxes line up seamlessly.
  • It is quicker to send agreements and to follow up if they are not returned in the allotted timeframe.
  • Making changes to the documents is fast and easy.

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.

  • User documentation could be better.
  • Requiring the field coding to be hidden makes it difficult to make adjustments.
  • I'd like to see where customers are in the signing process - whether they've opened and viewed documents.
  • If the document has been delegated, seeing a clear trail of the paperwork with email addresses including in the tracking.

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

The tool is inexpensive and good value. We don't need a ton of eSign capabilities and this one provides what we need for a low cost given our low volume.

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.

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

eSign Genie has live chat support virtually twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. They also have phone and email support as well. On the few occasions that I have had to contact support, they were very helpful, knowledgeable, and friendly. It's been a pleasure working with the folks at eSign Genie.

Very easy...I was able to start using it immediately.

There is no implementation at all. You just sign up, upload your documents, set up the fields to complete, and you are done!

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.

Adobe Sign, despite coming from one of the best known brands in software, is the most frustrating and poorly-supported platform I've ever used. HelloSign and PandaDoc are good platforms - although the cost a bit more than eSignGenie, they are ahead on some features (not all)... depending on your exact use case, I'd consider them. However, for my simple use case, eSigngenie is the clear winner!

Not sure as I don't have a need to scale.

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.

  • Creating a document that is easy for a client to understand and complete is a game changer. We are already experiencing a higher document completion rate than when we were with either DocuSign or Adobe (echosign)
  • With the number of completed documents on the rise with our company, having the incredible pricing structure that eSign Genie offers is a huge money saver for us
  • Not having to spend so much time with clients explaining how to complete the forms is saving us huge in customer support cost.
