SignHost
Identity and QES platform
Choose Asignu if you are a European SME or operational team that wants unlimited Advanced Electronic Signatures within a simple, predictable per-user subscription.
Choose SignHost if your organisation needs a wide range of Dutch and European identity-verification methods, or regularly requires Qualified Electronic Signatures as a core part of its signing process.
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.
Learn more about Asignu’s unlimited AES model →SignHost’s pricing is structured around flat-rate annual credit bundles, which can make it harder to predict costs as sending volume changes.
Asignu’s per-user, invitation-based plans give teams a clear, scalable structure that grows in line with actual usage.
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, without requiring configuration of multiple authentication packages.
SignHost may be the better option for organisations that need a wide range of Dutch or European identity-verification methods, or for which Qualified Electronic Signatures are central to daily operations.
SignHost supports a broad set of authentication options, including iDIN, DigiD, itsme and passport selfie check, which can be valuable for Dutch organisations with specific identification requirements.
SignHost is built with Qualified Electronic Signatures as a primary use case, which may suit organisations that need QES regularly rather than as an occasional exception.
As part of Entrust’s Verified Signing solution, SignHost can appeal to organisations that value being backed by an established identity and trust-services provider.

Asignu's per-user plans include unlimited AES as standard. SignHost's credit-based bundles cover signature volume, and stronger authentication methods (iDIN, DigiD, itsme, QES) are drawn from the same credit pool or billed as add-ons. This makes Asignu's model easier to predict for teams with steady, recurring signing volume, while SignHost's bundles can suit organisations with lower or more variable volume.
A signature invitation and a signing credit are not technically identical units. They are the respective units each platform uses to describe usage.
