DocuSign vs Dropbox Sign

The short answer

Dropbox Sign is simpler and doesn't count signature requests on paid plans, which suits a team that sends a lot from a handful of templates. DocuSign has more depth: more languages, more add-ons, its own mobile app and a very large integration catalog, at a higher month-to-month price and with an envelope allowance.

DocuSign and Dropbox Sign side by side

Figures are US list prices from DocuSign's eSignature, developer, languages and mobile pages and Dropbox Sign's pricing, API pricing and help center pages, read on November 5, 2026.

What a five-person team pays

Five users on DocuSign Standard are $125 a month billed yearly, or $150 on an annual plan paid monthly, with up to 500 envelopes a year in total. Dropbox Sign Standard would also be $125 a month for five on yearly billing, with unlimited requests, but Dropbox's pricing page asks teams of five or more to contact sales, so expect a quote. Four users on Dropbox Standard are $100 a month billed yearly.

Where DocuSign is stronger

• Templates on every plan. DocuSign's pricing page lists reusable templates on every plan without a stated cap, while Dropbox Sign caps Standard at 15.
• API access inside a signing plan. DocuSign includes its API on Business Pro; Dropbox Sign sells API access as separate plans.
• Languages and add-ons. DocuSign signs in 44 languages and sells SMS delivery, ID verification, qualified signatures and online notarization.
• A dedicated mobile app. DocuSign's own app runs on iPhone, iPad and Android; Dropbox Sign is reached through the Dropbox app.

Where Dropbox Sign is stronger

• No envelope counting. Dropbox Sign sends unlimited signature requests on every paid plan, with no overages.
• Bulk send on the team plan. It's on Standard, up to 250 people a send; DocuSign puts it on Business Pro.
• A lower month-to-month price. Standard is $30 a user month to month against DocuSign's $45, and the same $25 on yearly billing. Essentials covers one person for $15 a month billed yearly, with no request cap.
• Integrations on the entry plan. Google Drive, Microsoft Word and HubSpot are on every Dropbox Sign plan, and files sit next to the rest of your Dropbox.

Which to choose, by situation

• A small office that sends a steady stream of the same few forms: Dropbox Sign Standard, with unlimited requests and bulk send, as long as 15 templates are enough.
• A company with dozens of document types: DocuSign, since its pricing page lists reusable templates on every plan without a cap.
• A team with signers in many countries: DocuSign, with 44 signing languages, or Dropbox Sign if its 22 cover your signers.
• A business that already lives in Dropbox: Dropbox Sign keeps signed files beside everything else and works through the Dropbox app.
• A team that needs to text documents or check IDs: DocuSign sells SMS delivery and ID verification as add-ons.

Where SignMaster fits

SignMaster takes a different approach to price: one plan for the team instead of a price per user. Crew is $49 a month for 5 people with unlimited envelopes and templates, bulk send and branding, and every plan, Free included, can sign in person with several signers in one envelope.

SignMaster has fewer signer languages (6, Spanish included) and no Android app or Dropbox integration, so weigh those first. Then compare row by row: SignMaster vs DocuSign and SignMaster vs Dropbox Sign.
