The Envelope Trap

When evaluating DocuSign vs Eversign, most teams focus on the monthly price. But the real cost is hidden in the limits.

DocuSign restricts most business plans to 100 envelopes per year per user. Once you hit that limit, you are stuck with expensive overage fees. Reddit users report quotes as high as $40 per envelope for simple renewals.

Eversign, now rebranded as Xodo Sign, is more generous with unlimited documents on their business tier. However, you are still locked into their cloud. If their prices double (as DocuSign's recently did for many), your documents and workflows are held hostage.

The Open Source Alternative

DocuSeal is the open-source answer to the eSignature SaaS tax. It provides the same legally binding signatures and template workflows but doesn't charge you per document. By hosting it on Opsily, you get the convenience of SaaS with the control of self-hosting.
