Overview
Dropbox Sign (formerly HelloSign) is a clean, straightforward e-signature tool that sits between the simplicity of a document email and the enterprise features of DocuSign. Owned by Dropbox, it integrates naturally into Dropbox storage. The free plan allows 3 signature requests per month — enough for low-volume users. Paid plans remove the cap and add template libraries, team management, and an API for embedded signatures. A solid, no-frills alternative to DocuSign at a lower price point.
