    BoldSign is perfect for the small business or startup that needs a legally-binding solution to digitally sign contracts/agreements between 2 parties or more. It's no frills and super easy to use, and requires no training to understand how to use. BoldSign is less appropriate for organisations that require complex integrations and automation capabilities for their digital signature solution.

    Penneo is really well suited if you want to handle all contracts online. Reducing process time and reducing "waste" of paper being printed. It can speed up the process for all. To my knowledge, it's not possible to fraud the system, and the files being signed are always verified correctly.

    Cons
    Syncfusion
    • It would be great if BoldSign saved my signature in my account to use each time
    • It might be easier if you could select signature (or any heading for that matter) and click where you want it instead of dragging it to where you want it.
    • It would be nice if completed document’s automatically saved to a selected folder for safe keeping.

    • For Danish users, it would be nice if Penneo offered the ability to sign and verify using MitID.
    • For signees, it would be nice to have a feature to add comments for documents, not just personal but also for the client.
    • As company the software solution is really great. There is not much negative points to highlight.

    Great product. Great price. Free for up to 25 signatures for one persons account. Having a group using it under one account is even a great price. Much cheaper than all the alternatives out there and does the same stuff the others do

    Very straight forward to use and customers understand the service. No questions or need for me to explain. The free tier is amazing and has locked me in as a customer for when we're big enough to need the paid version.

    The price-performance ratio is better with BoldSign. If I want to scale up to the next level and then go back, I can do it easily with BoldSign, unlike Adobe, for example. If you want to try another application, that's fine. They all do the same thing. In my experience, the ease of use, sourcing and functionality was perfect with BoldSign.

    Return on Investment
    Syncfusion
    • So far I have only used the free version
    • I am sure that the paid version would be extremely beneficial if you did a bunch of contracts. I just started using the program, so not too many contracts yet. If I need to upgrade my subscription, the price will be well worth it.

    • As stated earlier Penneo has made a really positive impact on reducing our process time when signing contracts. Now we are able to complete a process with two or three sign-offs within a day. Before this process usually took a week.
    • We reduce a lot of physical storage by having all files electronically. Files are saved as PDFs and stored securely on a server. Earlier these were printed files stored in a physical folder.
    • As a large company we really want to reduce of environmental impact, and reducing a lot of physical prints is also a key measure for us. Penneo has had a positive impact on us in this regard.
