The PandaDoc Alternative Built for Control, Not Compromise

Escalating Costs

Your bill keeps increasing, but the value doesn't. You're paying a premium for the brand name.

Restrictive API

The API is either too limited, poorly documented, or prohibitively expensive, stalling your integration projects.

Compliance Gaps

You need to meet standards like HIPAA or 21 CFR Part 11, and PandaDoc's solution is either inadequate or non-existent.

Lack of Flexibility

You're forced into a one-size-fits-all SaaS model when you need options like on-premises deployment for full data control.

Predictable Pricing

We believe in transparent, value-based pricing that scales with your business. Our plans are straightforward, with no hidden fees or surprise charges for essential features. You get more for your money, period.

Superior Compliance

Go beyond basic legal validity. We provide verifiable compliance with HIPAA, SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, GDPR, and even 21 CFR Part 11, giving your legal and security teams the peace of mind they demand.

Developer-First API

Integrate e-signatures into your application or website in hours, not weeks. Our modern REST API is flexible, well-documented, and backed by expert support, all without the exorbitant costs charged by competitors.

Effortless Migration

Switching is simple. Our dedicated onboarding team will help you migrate your templates and workflows, while our intuitive user interface ensures your team can start sending documents on day one with minimal training.

"We switched from PandaDoc because the pricing was just not sustainable for our firm. With eSignly, we get all the security and legal validity we need at a price that makes sense. The audit trail is robust and the interface is cleaner."

"I was looking for a PandaDoc API alternative for our new platform. eSignly's documentation was excellent, and the support team was incredibly responsive. We were able to build a proof-of-concept in two days, something that just wasn't feasible with PandaDoc's cost and complexity."

"HIPAA compliance is non-negotiable for us. eSignly provided the BAA and security assurances we needed to move our patient consent forms online. It's more secure than our old paper process and way more efficient. A fantastic alternative."

"Our sales team is always on the move. eSignly's in-person signing feature on tablets has been a game-changer for getting customer agreements signed on the spot. It's faster and more professional than any other solution we looked at."

"Onboarding new employees is so much smoother now. With eSignly's bulk send feature, I can send out offer letters and policy documents to our entire new hire class with one click. It saves me hours of work every month."

"The decision to switch from PandaDoc to eSignly was purely financial at first—the savings were significant. But we've been impressed with the platform's reliability and the features included. It's a high-ROI decision I would make again."

Absolutely. All eSignly signatures are fully compliant with the U.S. ESIGN Act, UETA, and international laws. We provide a comprehensive, court-admissible audit trail for every document that is just as robust, if not more detailed, than what PandaDoc offers.

SaaS Firm Cuts Sales Cycle by 40% with eSignly's API

Overview: A mid-market B2B SaaS company with 250 employees was struggling with a clunky, multi-step process for signing up new enterprise clients. Their existing solution, PandaDoc, required sales reps to manually generate documents and send them via email, leading to delays and a disjointed customer experience.

"We were looking for a PandaDoc API alternative that wasn't going to cost a fortune. eSignly's API was not only affordable, but our developer had it integrated into our staging environment in a single afternoon. The impact was immediate. It's exactly what we needed to scale."

Client: Cameron Avery, Head of Revenue Operations at ScaleUp Solutions

Healthcare Network Achieves HIPAA Compliance and Saves $50k Annually

Overview: A regional network of 15 urgent care clinics was drowning in paper-based patient intake forms. Their process was inefficient, prone to errors, and posed a significant HIPAA compliance risk. They needed to digitize their patient onboarding but found that many e-signature solutions, including their basic PandaDoc plan, did not offer the specific features and Business Associate Agreement (BAA) required for HIPAA compliance without a massive price jump.

"Finding a true PandaDoc alternative that understood healthcare compliance was critical. eSignly not only provided the HIPAA-compliant platform and BAA we needed, but their team helped us roll it out across all 15 clinics in under a month. The efficiency gains and peace of mind are invaluable."

Client: Rachel Manning, Director of Operations at PrimeCare Clinics

Real Estate Brokerage Switches from PandaDoc and Cuts Document Costs by 60%

Overview: A fast-growing real estate brokerage with 50 agents was feeling the pain of PandaDoc's per-user pricing. As they added more agents, their monthly bill skyrocketed, eating into their margins. They used the platform for listing agreements, offers, and lease agreements, but the core functionality they needed didn't justify the high cost. They sought an alternative that offered robust e-signature features without punishing them for growing their team.

"Every dollar counts in real estate. Paying PandaDoc's prices for our 50 agents felt like a tax on our growth. Switching to eSignly's Business plan gave us all the features we were using, plus better team management, for a fraction of the cost. The decision was a no-brainer."

Client: Thomas Lamb, Owner/Broker at Keystone Realty Group
