Why teams choose Asignu instead of DocuSign

Unlimited Advanced Electronic Signatures

Simple Electronic Signatures are sufficient for many everyday documents. But when your workflow requires stronger signer authentication and a higher level of assurance, Advanced Electronic Signatures become important.

Asignu includes unlimited AES usage within every regular subscription. This makes costs easier to predict for HR, finance, legal and operational teams that use stronger signatures regularly.

More room to send

Asignu plans include between 100 and 200 signature invitations per user per month. This gives document-heavy teams room to send contracts, approvals and recurring forms without immediately moving to custom enterprise pricing.

DocuSign’s publicly listed annual Standard and Business Pro eSignature plans currently include 100 envelopes per user per year. Other DocuSign products and custom plans can offer different or unlimited allowances.

Built around European requirements

Asignu is an EU-based provider with European hosting and support that understands eIDAS and European signing requirements. This makes it a focused choice for organisations that place particular importance on European data handling and regulatory context.

When DocuSign may be the better fit

DocuSign may be the better option when electronic signing is only one part of a much larger agreement-management environment.

Extensive enterprise ecosystem

DocuSign has a broad ecosystem of integrations and established deployment options for complex, multinational organisations.

AI-powered agreement management

DocuSign IAM can analyse agreements, manage repositories and automate agreement workflows using AI. Asignu is currently a more focused e-signature product rather than a full agreement intelligence platform.

Complex global deployments

Large organisations with advanced administration, extensive Salesforce requirements and global procurement processes may benefit from DocuSign’s maturity and scale.
