Why Freelancers & Agencies Teams Need a Better E-Signature Solution
Freelancers and small agencies juggle client contracts, project proposals, NDAs, and invoicing — often from a phone between meetings. They need professional signing tools at prices that do not eat into project margins. Per-user enterprise pricing makes no sense for a team of 1-5.

Why Freelancers & Agencies Teams Are Switching Away from SignNow
The most common reasons freelancers & agencies teams leave SignNow are limits issues, upsell frustrations, and compliance_cost problems. Here is what we hear from teams that switched to BoloSign.
100 document per month cap on Business plan
limitsSignNow's $8/user Business plan caps you at 100 documents per month. Overages cost ~$0.50 per document. During busy periods, costs become unpredictable. BoloSign has no document caps on any plan.
Advanced features require premium tiers at higher per-user cost
upsellConditional logic, bulk sending, and web forms require Business Premium ($15/user). SSO and HIPAA require Enterprise ($25+/user). The low $8 entry price quickly escalates when you need real workflow features.
HIPAA compliance is a per-user add-on ($5/user/mo)
compliance costSignNow charges $5 per user per month for HIPAA compliance. For a 10-person healthcare team, that is $50/month just for compliance — on top of $150-250/month for the base plan. BoloSign's HIPAA BAA is a flat $49/month add-on regardless of team size.
Knowledge-Based Authentication costs ~$2 per use
metered costsIf you need to verify signer identity beyond email, SignNow charges approximately $2 per authentication event. This metered pricing makes identity verification expensive for high-volume teams.
No Google Sheets, Stripe, or native CRM integrations on base plan
missing featuresSignNow's $8 Business plan has limited integrations. Google Sheets tracking, Stripe payments, and CRM connections require upgrades or Zapier middleware.
