Their personal package is $10 per month and only allows 5 document sends per month. If you wanted to send one document to 5 people for each of them to sign, I don't know if that would use up your entire allowance for the month, or if it would only count as 1 send. This seems too limited to be useful.
Their "Realtor" package is $20 per month per user, and has unlimited sends, and a few other minor upgrades. Other, more expensive, packages are available too.
One good thing about DocuSign is that only the sender needs an account. I don't now about Genius Scan PDF, but some of the "special" communications apps out there require both the sender and recipient to have the app.
I hope everyone, whether a notary or a client, will just say no to the concept of paying for 17 different, incompatible apps so they can sign documents for all their different correspondents. For occasional signed documents, the entity requesting the signature should bear the entire cost of the signing software.
If a group are sending each other documents that need to be signed several times a day, one might expect sole proprietors who are in the group to pay for the eSignature software the group has agreed on, and for the organization that employees and volunteers belong to to pay for the software. But if it's a few signatures a year, it should definitely be the responsibility of the entity requesting the signature. |
