Why OpenSign beats DocuSign for teams that care about control
DocuSign locks you in. You pay per seat, per envelope, per feature unlock. The pricing never stops climbing.
OpenSign flips the model: open-source code, transparent pricing, no vendor games.
But open-source also means ops work. You manage infrastructure, patches, uptime. For most teams, that's a distraction.
That's where managed hosting changes the game.
DocuSeal on Opsily gives you:
- OpenSign's cost structure (flat €30/month, unlimited documents)
- Professional hosting (99.9% uptime, daily backups, automatic patches)
- GDPR compliance out of the box (German data centers, full residency control)
- No infrastructure to manage (deploy in 2 minutes)
- Support when you need it (email/chat)
You get the best of both: the economics of self-hosted, the stability of managed SaaS.
