Considered Both Products	DocuSign Verified User Anonymous Chose DocuSign I don't think I've seen anything like DocuSign in the market. Well I think now Acrobat has a product similar to it, but it's not exactly same people can use it to sign. But it has come recently, not a long back. DocuSign has been in the market since long, so it still has the … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose DocuSign I've worked with documents such as Oracle, Google Forms, and software of that nature. I believe that DocuSign is, has a good reputation and has been reliable for many companies. That's one of the reasons why we have adopted it in our own infrastructure. I believe that compared … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose DocuSign Very similar but did not have the backing of SAP SuccessFactors in terms of Integration. The Developer Environment allowed us to test and practice on very easily compared to Adobe Acrobat Sign. Both products can be connected to via Microsoft Power Platform to aid automation … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose DocuSign Adobe was not a good experience despite the lower cost. Constant crashing, slow to load and a simple feature like copy and pasting the same fields across pages was non existent. Our team celebrated the decision to move back to Docusign from Adobesign. We have never looked back … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose DocuSign WinZip Incentivized Helpful? Emily Wallace Talent Acquisition Coordinator Chose DocuSign Adobe Acrobat Sign is less user-friendly and more suited to small scopes, or one-off documents. It lacks the use of templates that DocuSign has, which is what ultimately streamlines and delivers the consistency and efficiencies for the business. Incentivized Helpful? Shrina Jain Senior Channel Sales Manager Chose DocuSign Deal hub is a relatively complicated software, my company requirement was limited to getting the document verifed and then get it signed from the right set of designation after the verification The evaluation process of DocuSign was also smooth and it was very simple to … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose DocuSign No other documents like DocuSign have I had experience with or have I used. Incentivized Helpful? PR Padraic Ryan Community Manager Chose DocuSign HelloSign was like a breath of fresh air compared to the corporate feel of DocuSign. Their salespeople were not pushy, their pricing is fantastic, and the features are just what we need. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose DocuSign There has never been anything that we could really compare to Docusign. We have tried sending documents in a PDF version, but that was not nearly as efficient. DocuSign saves your signature in the system and uses that as it goes through your documents. Incentivized Helpful? Denitra McGraw Small Business Manager - Family Owned & Operated Chose DocuSign I actually have both. Docusign has better features. Signnow was a little cheaper so I kept them. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose DocuSign DOcusign is quite old and reliable in respect of other vendors available in the market. There is no complexity in signing which is generally faced while using Authetisign and also it has no problem in inserting big text which other apps have this issue. Incentivized Helpful? Erin Gracyalny Customer Success Manager Chose DocuSign I prefer DocuSign to Adobe Sign because of the workflow process. To me, DocuSign flows much easier and the interface is easier for me to locate the things I need. I also appreciate the templates that DocuSign allowed, especially because Egnyte had a direct integration with … Incentivized Helpful? AS Aleta Sage Realtor Chose DocuSign eversign, sign now, adobe sign, microsoft sign Incentivized Helpful? SA Shobannah Ally Accounts Payable Associate Chose DocuSign DocuSign is pretty much the only signing product that I have used to complete paperwork and have them signed over to our customers. It is a great product and is very efficient. Incentivized Helpful? Dave Bevington Director of Automation Chose DocuSign DocuSign is so much more widely used and I think reliable. Who knows where HelloSign will be in a few years and I don't think they have nearly the funding to compete with DocuSign. Also, everyone uses DocuSign and it makes clients feel secure knowing the name of software … Incentivized Helpful? Krystofer Gardner Director Of Operations Chose DocuSign When viewing other competing products they didn't have the superior functionality that DocuSign had, nor the admin control. However, it should be noted that since making the selection, competing products have greatly improved. Incentivized Helpful? Matthew McGinnis Managing Partner Chose DocuSign I would say that DocuSign's biggest competitor and a most similar product is Adobe Sign. They both offer almost identical features with Adobe offering a slightly better interface. Adobe sign is also less costly than DocuSign while offering templates that can be useful for … Incentivized Helpful? Liz Duffié VP, People & Culture Chose DocuSign I've used Hellosign and DocuSign at the company. DocuSign has an easier UX and ability to use with multiple users. Also links and partners with a lot more external tools. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose DocuSign We used home grown electronic signatures and were not pleased with the maintenance required. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose DocuSign I didn't make the decision myself on why we selected DocuSign so hard to say but bottom line is a lot of them do the same thing... e-signature. Pretty straightforward stuff! I think it really comes down to personal preference, perhaps user interface, and what just feels most … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose DocuSign I have not used any alternatives. DocuSign is the leader in this space from my opinion. Incentivized Helpful? Jeanette Carroll VP, Operations and Marketing Chose DocuSign DocuSign is the one we went with because of the majority of people who use it regularly. It's the first one that comes to mind when you think of electronic signatures. We do use AdobeSign with our HR platform because that is the one that is integrated with it, but standalone … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose DocuSign I have not used any other but I know there are other cheaper tools out there but it depends how many documents a company is dealing with and need signatures. We use it both for our own use with our employees and for any contracts we handle with consultants and customers. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose DocuSign Adobe Sign has closed the gap between it and DocuSign in recent years. I still think DocuSign outclasses Adobe's offering in ease of use, and it makes less sense to go with Adobe Sign unless you are already steeped in the Adobe Creative Cloud ecosystem (e.g., Adobe Acrobat, … Incentivized Helpful?	Sophos Intercept X Verified User Anonymous Chose Sophos Intercept X Bitdefender was garbage, and it did not work well for non-persistent VDI desktops. Even though we bought it we dumped it after a month and bought Sophos instead. The difference was like night and day. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Sophos Intercept X Sophos Intercept X is one of the industry leaders for a reason. Apart from integration issues, Sophos Intercept X stands above the rest when it comes to protection and usability. I have used at least 30 different antiviruses, antimalware, and antiransomeware programs and none … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Sophos Intercept X They have almost the same features but we ended up with a better offer for Sophos. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Sophos Intercept X Sophos Intercept X offers a far more comprehensive and stable product when pitted up against Comodo Advanced Endpoint Protection and Watchguard Endpoint Security - both of which we offer as low cost alternatives for customers who are adamant about not paying for Sophos … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Sophos Intercept X I don't feel it's fair to compare Sophos Intercept X with the versions of Symantec and AVG that I have used in the past - as that was such a long time ago. I'm sure those other companies have released far more features than I used all those years ago. Incentivized Helpful? IR Ian Reger IT Specialist Chose Sophos Intercept X Sophos Intercept X is easy to manage and deploy under your business. I think it is comparable to BitDefend with the ability to send out deployment via email or directly add it to the computer. I have noticed that Bitdefender seems to eat a lot of resources during its scans … Incentivized Helpful? William Scott Coates IT Support Specialist Chose Sophos Intercept X Webroot endpoint protection is not even in the same league as Sophos Intercept-X. I have tested and compared both sides by side, run simulations and it's not even close. Plus the Sophos central management is so much better. Easier to view user activities and apply policies and … Incentivized Helpful? AP Ash Patel Director of IT and Facilities Chose Sophos Intercept X I personally found Sophos Intercept X GUI to be easy to use. The agent is easy to deploy on client machines and runs in the background silently. It has a very good virus, malware scan engine that picks out a high percentage of malicious software. The price was also very … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Sophos Intercept X Sophos is much more user friendly and scalable for partners who wish to [centralize] all security across the IT industry, from email security, server security, phish threat management and more. Incentivized Helpful? Beau Sorensen COO Chose Sophos Intercept X We have used Avast, AVG, Panda, Sophos' original antivirus product, and Symantec before and it is better than each of them. The cloud console is the star of the show and it dramatically reduces the cost and effort needed to install the product. Other products were only … Incentivized Helpful? Reginald Johnson Managing Consultant - DevOps Chose Sophos Intercept X It is one of the only products that will scan all code in memory and arbitrary data for malicious behaviors. Incentivized Helpful? Shawn Umansky Network Engineer Chose Sophos Intercept X We have been using this product for a number of years, which shows that it has worked well for us. I don't recall the other products we reviewed. Incentivized Helpful? Ramon Vazquez IT Director Chose Sophos Intercept X It provides more features for the same price. These added features differentiate Sophos from the rest of the pack, making it a better solution. Also, the ability to integrate with your Sophos firewall if you have one adds another level of integration and protection. This … Incentivized Helpful? Sarah Urbani IT Chose Sophos Intercept X Sophos Intercept X is just easier to implement and manage. Incentivized Helpful? Steven Hiersche, Jr. Director Of Information Technology Chose Sophos Intercept X We didn’t evaluate any other products.

Jane Updegraff Senior Systems Administrator Chose Sophos Intercept X Sophos Intercept X is a little less expensive than the comparable package from Trend Micro and a little more expensive than a comparable package from Symantec, but in my opinion, it's easier to operate and it's got better centralized controls than both of the others. But the … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Sophos Intercept X Trend Micro offered similar protection, however at the time did not offer EDR as a solution.

Thayer Ramahi Director, IMIT Chose Sophos Intercept X We found Sophos is a full suit in one, easy to deploy, manage and very effective. Incentivized Helpful? Neil Taylor Trade Floor Infrastructure Manager Chose Sophos Intercept X Sophos is by far the simplest of the products to setup and going in a very short period of time at a very similar price point.

Incentivized Helpful? Alex Farling Managing Partner Chose Sophos Intercept X Best in class... PERIOD... Bit Defender is a good AV product by itself, but it lacks in Next Gen Heuristic detection.

User Testimonials
	DocuSign	Sophos Intercept X
Likelihood to Recommend	I am going to speak of a personal experience- on multiple occasions: I need my husband to sign documents during the day and I don't need him here- physically. He sometimes works in different parts of the state as well at his own company. There is no problem at all, as long as he has access to his cell phone, email, and cell phone service- he can sign the documents I need him to. It is AMAZING- I can't speak highly enough of Docusign. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Sophos Intercept-X is well suited for any environment big or small. There is even a home version that is free that I highly recommend for anyone at home. If you are looking for endpoint protection that is centrally managed, catches everything, and has many features this is the product for you. Incentivized William Scott Coates IT Support Specialist Read full review
Pros	Ease of sending the same document out to multiple recipients, at multiple locations, for multiple signatures Quick turnaround - once the recipient signs the document, we receive notification and the document back immediately Can resend, alter, change, and/or add to the email and/or document that is sent out very easily The recipient can save the document after signing, so they too have their own electronic copy for their records Incentivized Michele Roy Special Education Teacher Read full review	Sophos is a little too good at DLP. But it is indeed very good at not allowing our data to leave our endpoints without strict adherence to policy. Sophos is very good at protecting endpoints against viruses and other malware. Sopho is really good at informing us of what is happening on our endpoints. OOTB reporting is way better than expected. Incentivized Jane Updegraff Senior Systems Administrator Read full review
Cons	You have to purchase a subscription and unless you really need to originate a lot of documents, it's not cost-effective to maintain the subscription. It would be better to have a subscription that allows you to purchase a bundle of say, ten documents and then use them as needed for the occasional user. You'll be hard-pressed to find anything negative from users other than the price. Incentivized Kenneth Hess Senior Systems Analyst Read full review	The migration from on-prem sophos to cloud sophos, could have been a little more seamless Would love to get more insight on what was blocked or flagged and what it was trying to do Better and more granular feature management from group policies Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	The product is a great tool for a remote workforce. As the company gets bigger, adding users to the account can be rather expensive. We considering providing read/sign only access for certain individuals and providing full access to other users as necessary to reduce costs. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	We have gotten a great product for the price. Easy to maintain and set up on new devices. Support is great and easy to work with and understand. Incentivized Ryhlen Schoeberl Server Administrator Read full review
Usability	I think I gave their rating like 10 I think for recommendations and because I think when it started it was one of a kind, it was only one in the market to do that kind of functionality and they're improving. Earlier I used to just type my initials or type my name, but now you can actually sign it with additional signature. So I think they're improving. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	The usability has never been a problem. Sophos Intercept X is a program you can install and let protect your company without much intervention. Apart from a few policies, Sophos will keep you protected better than most any product on the market. Sophos Intercept X works quite well when you are looking to "tighten your grip" on user's access to websites, programs, and add-ons. Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Reliability and Availability	It does not go down. I have had zero issues with DocuSign, approaching 4 years. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	No answers on this topic
Performance	Everything loads quickly. Reports are generated in a reasonable time. No noticeable difference in integrated software processing speeds. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	No answers on this topic
Support Rating	I'd give them a 10, but there has been 1 or 2 small cases that seemed to fall to the wayside, but I was able to call them up and get them resolved. We were having a bad implementation night (after midnight) and we needed assistance from Docusign. They were able to get an engineer to help us in the early morning hours Incentivized Erik Sheafer Enterprise Development Manager Read full review	Most of the support reps are fantastic. There have been a few though that have had to be escalated via Account Manager when they haven't followed up but this is a rare instance, and often followed up by the Support Manager for APAC. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Online Training	Docusign is super easy to use, and apart from a few administration details, there was really nothing to train on. Post implementation, there were issues with configuration of auto-filled documents with the integrating 3rd party. That training required some time, because the DocuSign expert took the time to walk me through the 3rd party's configuration (how often does that happen?) so I could see how DocuSign should be best used to overcome weaknesses in the 3rd party platform. 10/10 expert care. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	No answers on this topic
Implementation Rating	Until you get the hang of it, I recommend doing several internal tests before sending a document to a client. As I mentioned earlier, you have to go through a bit of trial and error at first to verify that the workflow works as expected. Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Best thing was the help pushing out via group policy and was able to get instructions for that on sophos site Incentivized Ryhlen Schoeberl Server Administrator Read full review
Alternatives Considered	I've worked with documents such as Oracle, Google Forms, and software of that nature. I believe that DocuSign is, has a good reputation and has been reliable for many companies. That's one of the reasons why we have adopted it in our own infrastructure. I believe that compared to other products, DocuSign is more catered to the user experience than say, Oracle or Google Forms. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	I don't feel it's fair to compare Sophos Intercept X with the versions of Symantec and AVG that I have used in the past - as that was such a long time ago. I'm sure those other companies have released far more features than I used all those years ago Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Scalability	In my years of using DocuSign, I have never had an outage. I haven't even encountered a bug. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	No answers on this topic
Return on Investment	Incredibly positive impact on sustainability in reducing our carbon footprint, as we have gone almost 100% fully digital on contract paperwork across the organisation. Positive ROI on efficiencies for the contract team, reduced labour hours and better turnaround time for end-users Increased consistency across the organisation Incentivized Emily Wallace Talent Acquisition Coordinator Read full review	Before we had Intercept X, we had several infections of ransomware. Since that time it has stopped at least 10 attempts, saving us thousands of man-hours and hundreds of thousands of dollars. By decreasing the time needed for malware remediation, it has saved us the cost of .25 FTE in the IT department. Initial setup was cumbersome and cost us .1 FTE in additional costs the first year.
