User Testimonials

Likelihood to Recommend
Scrive is really well suited to managing legal documents and contracts. There are many instances where it would work best, including international forms and signatures, such as point-of-sale forms for buying products. It also works for managing large amounts of forms and red tape, especially in larger groups where everyone needs access.

SignNow is particularly useful for simple documents, forms and contracts where there the fields are pretty standards- names, signature block, title. It would be helpful to have features that allow substitution of certain fill in the blanks such that allow you to use the same template but first have a dialog to integrate language for a person, corporation, partnership or LLP. I'm a lawyer and having the ability to assemble variation of this nature into one template would be helpful. Also (and it may do this) the ability to change the actual form/document within the a template would be useful.

  • Tracking changes.
  • Simpler interface.
Read full review
  • When using shared templates, the option to rename the document is at the bottom of the signatures page. I would like that to be visible sooner as some of my team misses it and sends documents to clients with the templated name instead of the correct name because they forgot to scroll down far enough to see it.
  • CC'ed contacts used to show suggestions as you typed the email if you've sent that person a document before, but that functionality no longer shows on our account. I'd like to see that brought back.
  • It would be nice if we could add folders to our documents page so that we could sort sent and signed documents into individual client folders. The search feature works fine, but folders would help clean up the view for my team.

Usability
No answers on this topic
I gave it a 9 because the system is very easy to use, even for those who are not very familiar with digital signatures. It is all very intuitive, you can send, sign and track documents without any complications. I only didn't give it a 10 because sometimes it gets stuck when the file is large (very rare but it happens) or there are a lot of people to sign, and then you have to keep resending it and also, as I mentioned, the dedicated support would be interesting in case of emergency. Dei 9 porque o sistema é bem fácil de usar, mesmo pra quem não é muito familiarizado com essas coisas de assinatura digital. É tudo bem intuitivo, dá pra enviar, assinar e acompanhar os docs sem complicação. Só não dei 10 porque às vezes ele dá umas travadas quando o arquivo é pesado (muito dificil mais acontece) ou tem muita gente pra assinar, e aí precisa ficar reenviando e também como comentei do suporte dedicado que seria interessante em caso de urgência

SignNow is always available when I need it. It seems that most updates occur outside of business hours so I have full functionality when I need it most between the hours of 8am-6pm EST. There has only been I time when I experience application errors when I need to use the system but it did not last long and the issue was resolved within a few hours.

Support Rating
Customer support was incredible, they helped when I had one question about a bug with the archiving function. They got it sorted out, helped me understand what I did wrong, and even released a patch months later to prevent future users from falling into the same trap. I don't think there even was a language barrier, despite Scrive being a Swedish company.

I only used SignNow support when setting up. I uploaded a bunch of documents in the wrong place and needed assistance in moving them. Unfortunately they were not able to move the documents and I needed to upload into a different place. This is where I feel the system itself could benefit from some flexibility for their customers.

It was nice to be shown the basics of the system and be able to see or understand the specific functions our company would need to use, such as the template creation, document grouping and document group templates. Being taught on how to use these functions, made learning them much easier.

Make sure you know exactly what you need before implementation and be sure to ask how to use the most important functions of the system that you will be using.

Alternatives Considered
It is more intuitive and does not require its users to get any formal training to use the product. It allows automatic follow-ups with users who use the product. It can be deployed on all operating system and is compatible with most of the devices including mobile phone, laptop or personal computer.

SignNow doesn't offer 3 x free documents to be signed monthly, and requires a subscription vs a pay-per-use, which is where Secured Signing shines. Secured Signing also has video verification and additional security measures that SignNow doesn't have. However, I find SignNow to be easier to use than Secured Signing.
