The Hidden Cost of Outdated Contracting

Every delayed agreement is a risk to your revenue and a drain on your time.

It creates bottlenecks that frustrate your team and your clients.

The eSignly Advantage

With eSignly, upload a purchase agreement you have prepared, add the fields needed for signing, and send it to the relevant parties. Review current plan features and limits on the pricing page before choosing the workflow that fits your transaction.

Frequently Asked Questions

Guidance for preparing and sending your own purchase agreement for signature.

Can I use my own purchase agreement?
Yes. Prepare your purchase agreement, upload it to eSignly, add the required signing fields, and send it to the relevant parties. eSignly does not draft or review legal terms.
Are electronic signatures on purchase agreements legally binding?
Electronic signatures may have legal effect under laws such as the U.S. ESIGN Act and UETA, depending on the transaction and jurisdiction. Review the requirements that apply to your agreement.
How is eSignly different from DocuSign or other competitors?
While we operate in a similar space, our focus is on providing a powerful, secure, and incredibly easy-to-use platform with transparent pricing. We pride ourselves on our customer support and our agility in developing features our customers need. We offer competitive features with a focus on delivering immediate value and a clear ROI, without locking you into complex, long-term contracts.
Can I customize the signing experience with my company branding?
Yes. On our Business and Enterprise plans, you can add your company logo and customize the color scheme of the emails and signing interface to provide a branded, consistent experience for your clients.
What happens if a mistake is made in a document that has already been sent?
If the document has not yet been signed by all parties, you can easily cancel and correct it. You can then resend the corrected version. This prevents legally binding agreements from being executed with incorrect information, giving you full control over the process.
How are my documents and data stored?
Review eSignly's SOC 2 Type II report and ISO 27001 certification scope, current security documentation, and applicable service terms for details about storage and safeguards.
What kind of support do you offer?
We offer comprehensive support to all our customers. This includes a detailed online help center, email support ([email protected]), and phone support (+1(908)460-1084). Enterprise customers receive a dedicated account manager for prioritized support and strategic guidance.
Is there a free trial?
Review current plans and any trial or free options, including feature limits, on the pricing page before choosing a plan for your signing needs.
What should I check for a multi-stage approval workflow?
Configure the available signing sequence, routing, and reminders for your process. Confirm that your chosen plan and workflow support the approval steps you need, and test exceptions and handoffs before relying on automation. Keep appropriate human review for purchase terms and approval decisions.
How quickly can I integrate eSignly into my existing software?
Integration time depends on your application, access requirements, document preparation, and testing. Review the API documentation, confirm plan and endpoint availability, and validate authentication, signing events, and error handling before using a CRM, ERP, or custom integration in production.
