My main use case for Dropbox Sign is that people upload their photos on Dropbox and send me the Dropbox link. A quick specific example of a document I typically handle with Dropbox Sign is mostly photos, but also other documents and papers. I also use it for university to share pages.
Founder . Interior Architect & Interior Designer at a university with 5,001-10,000 employees
Digital sharing has replaced bulky paperwork and now allows photo and document links for everyone
Pros and Cons
- "Dropbox Sign has positively impacted my organization because I can upload something on Dropbox without the physical paper of all my documents."
- "Dropbox Sign can be improved because with some types of connection, I cannot use Dropbox."
What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
The best features Dropbox Sign offers include having a Dropbox account, but you can use Dropbox even if you are not signed in. That feature helps me and my team because if I upload something on Dropbox, I can send the link also to those who do not have Dropbox. This is very useful because you do not need to be subscribed to download something from the site.
Dropbox Sign has positively impacted my organization because I can upload something on Dropbox without the physical paper of all my documents. This allows me to travel more lightly. Specific benefits include saving time.
What needs improvement?
Dropbox Sign can be improved because with some types of connection, I cannot use Dropbox. I do not know why. The needed improvements mostly relate to a network issue. However, on some devices, the app is more simple. I notice differences between the app on Apple and Microsoft.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Dropbox Sign for four years.

Dropbox Sign positively impacts my organization because it makes my work easy. The signing part of the files is very fast now.

Logistics Specialist at a computer software company with 1,001-5,000 employees
Free to use for those signing, reliable, and great for digital signatures
Pros and Cons
- "For those signing, it is free to use."
- "They should ensure that every company can accept it. I'm not sure if all companies use it."
What is our primary use case?
We primarily use the solution to sign contracts or documents and send the documents to the correct person.
How has it helped my organization?
It made the signing of documentation faster. I was also able to get a receipt of the paperwork signed.
What is most valuable?
The most valuable aspect is the ability to print the signed documentation.
It is stable and reliable.
The solution can scale.
For those signing, it is free to use.
What needs improvement?
I'm not sure if you can download the signed documentation.
They should ensure that every company can accept it. I'm not sure if all companies use it.
Often, you need to convert it to Adobe before you can email it.
I'd like to see something that helps artists to digitalize their work and upload it online. If a user decides to print work, it should be traceable or signed so you can see who is taking it and using your work without your permission. It would help you protect yourself and your work. Digital signatures that act like a watermark on digital work would be a game-changer.
It would be useful if the solution were available on the cloud for free until you need to do something with it.
For how long have I used the solution?
I've only recently started to use the solution. This is a product that is still pretty new to me.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The solution is stable and reliable. I'd rate the stability nine out of ten. I didn't have any issues. It doesn't crash or freeze.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
I'd rate the scalability nine out of ten. It is scalable.
How are customer service and support?
I've never used technical support in the past. I can't speak to how helpful or responsive they would be.
What was our ROI?
There may be an ROI for companies sending documentation. However, I just signed a document. I did not receive any ROI.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The solution was free to use as I was just a recipient of the document. I did not need to pay for it. I just used it to sign a document.
If it is not free, it should be very inexpensive, like a dollar a year. It needs to be very affordable in order to get people to use it.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
I did not evaluate other options.
What other advice do I have?
I'm not sure which version of the solution I used.
In technology, everything needs subscriptions. I'd prefer it if it was free until you needed to use it and pay only when you need it.
I'd rate the solution nine out of ten.

Founder at Coffman Consulting College Counseling
A stable platform for simplified contract signing and template management
Pros and Cons
- "The solution has significantly simplified the process of getting contracts signed."
- "Currently, one can't accept payments over the solution."
What is our primary use case?
I use it about once or twice a month to send a contract to clients and get their signatures, so I am not a very frequent user.
How has it helped my organization?
The solution has significantly simplified the process of getting contracts signed. Previously, I would have clients print out a hard copy of the contract, sign it, and then scan it so that they could send it back to me. I would then have to print it out, sign it, and scan it back to them. I can simply send the contract electronically, with fields for the clients to complete and their signatures. Once the clients send the completed contract to me, I add my signature and send them a fully executed contract. This process only takes a matter of minutes since the templates can be pre-saved. As a result, this solution saves me a significant amount of time.
What is most valuable?
One of my favorite features of Dropbox Sign is the ability to save templates. I tend to use the same contract repeatedly, with only the names being changed.
What needs improvement?
There isn't necessarily any scope for improvement since uploading from Google Drive is very easy.
Currently, one can't accept payments over the solution. It would be a nice addition to the solution if we could accept payments via PayPal or Zelle so that when someone signs a contract, they can also pay. For now, I use QuickBooks for the aforementioned purpose.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Dropbox Sign for two years. So, I have been using it since the time when it was called HelloSign. Also, I don't remember the version of the solution I am using.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Since I have not thought about scaling up my business, it would be hard for me to comment on what I think about its scalability. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution an eight or nine out of ten. Just one person in my company is using the solution. Even though I plan to use the solution in the future, my business is managed by myself presently.
How are customer service and support?
I never had the opportunity to communicate with the technical support team.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup process was very straightforward. When I first started using Dropbox Sign, it was known as HelloSign, and I could add it as an app to my Google Workspace. This allowed me to easily access the HelloSign link and go through the process as soon as I finished the document. Nowadays, I log in to Dropbox Sign and pull it up from Google. Although I don't have a Google extension, the process is still very simple and easy to use.
The solution is deployed on the cloud.
What was our ROI?
I have experienced a return on investment using the solution.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The solution's pricing is fine. I chose Dropbox Sign over Adobe because of its pricing.
What other advice do I have?
I would tell those planning to use the solution that it is very easy to use, especially if you have basic technological skills since such skills can help you to get it up and running quickly. So, it's not complicated at all. I rate the overall solution a ten out of ten.
Disclosure: My company does not have a business relationship with this vendor other than being a customer.
A solution that is very user-friendly and environment-friendly
Pros and Cons
- "It's very easy to run through the document and get it signed since it walks you through everything in a step-by-step manner. So, it's very easy to use."
- "The tool needs to be able to integrate with other products or servers."
What is our primary use case?
The usage of Dropbox Sign is associated with security measures. The tool features encryption and certification protocols and even provides the option for sign-in verification before document signing. It ultimately becomes the company's decision to accept an e-sign document since they have the knowledge that the person signing the document is legitimate and the intended recipient.
What is most valuable?
It's very easy to set up your signature. It's very easy to run through the document and get it signed since it walks you through everything in a step-by-step manner. So, it's very easy to use.
What needs improvement?
There are no apparent areas that need improvement with Dropbox Sign. The tool's instructions are clear and concise, making the process easy to understand. So, I have used it throughout the year, and I feel it is easy to use. Even a new user would be able to figure out the solution.
The tool needs to be able to integrate with other products or servers. As new software or applications are introduced, various APIs become available for utilization. It would be beneficial for the tool to continue expanding its library and remain versatile in many products.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have used Dropbox Sign around five times in a couple of years, the most recent being the previous week. I don't use it often since Dropbox Sign makes me sign a privacy or non-disclosure form.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
It is a stable tool.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
It is a scalable solution. So, in our organization, we have used it and migrated it to just about every branch under a particular organization.
How are customer service and support?
I never contacted the technical support team since I have never faced issues with the solution needing support.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
Unlike Dropbox Sign, DocuSign offers a more efficient process with fewer steps to sign documents. This streamlined approach makes it easier to use and complete the signing process, making DocuSign a better tool than others.
How was the initial setup?
The solution's initial setup process was easy.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
On a scale of one to ten, where ten is the most comfortable pricing, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.
What other advice do I have?
I would tell those planning to use the solution that if they are planning to get rid of the paperwork and want to stay away from killing trees, they should go for it since it is a very user-friendly and environment-friendly application. Overall, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.
