How to choose

Which platforms does the API need to support?

Check platform support against the apps and devices where signing will happen. The board compares API, web, Android, iOS, macOS and Windows availability.

Confirm that the platform you need is listed for the product before planning how it will fit into your workflow.

What should I compare in the pricing?

Compare the free plan, starting price and trial terms, where listed. Pricing may be shown per month, per user, per signature, or on request, so check what the quoted amount applies to.

Also review the monthly envelope limit: an envelope is the package of documents sent for signing. Check whether the plan fits your expected volume.

Can I try the API in a sandbox first?

A sandbox is a test environment for checking an API flow without treating it as a live signing process. Compare whether one is available and whether a free plan or trial gives you a way to evaluate the service.

Which signing methods and workflow features matter?

Compare the signing methods offered with the process your users need. The board also compares webhook events, which are automatic notices when something happens, and bulk sending for sending documents to groups.

Which SDK languages should I check?

An SDK is a set of tools for connecting software to an API. Check the listed SDK languages against the languages your team can use, and review documentation depth when assessing how much guidance is available.
