*Comparing DocuSign Business Pro and DocuSign Advanced Solutions to Adobe Acrobat with Advanced E-Sign and Acrobat Sign.
See what Acrobat Sign users are saying.
“Acrobat Sign has a great user interface and was less expensive than DocuSign, plus was easy to deploy and use.”
Richard Hamilton-Price, Senior Applications Manager, GallifordTry
“We put Acrobat Sign and DocuSign head-to-head, comparing the features and numbers. Adobe ended up being the right decision — and it’s still the right decision today.”
Travis Conley, CTO, Benefytt
"Our Procurement team attempted to use DocuSign as a standalone solution for document signatures but found configuring and supporting it to be complicated. After hearing that the IT department used Acrobat Sign, our Procurement team adopted the solution. Acrobat Sign stood out for its ease of use and strong integrations, such as Microsoft Outlook plug-in for Acrobat Sign, which brought digital signatures into our employees' most-used applications, including their email inbox."
Alysia Loshbaugh, Assistant VP for Business Relationship Management in IT, Tulane University
“DocuSign has a limited number of users on their plan. Acrobat Sign’s pricing and variety of plans makes it much more attractive in general after you compare apple to apples in functionality.”
Dave Bevington, Director of Automation, DRI Inc.
"Acrobat Sign was the only solution we found that had a strong vision of integration into existing Microsoft workflows. We’re using familiar tools to do more and work faster. We had positive relationships with both Adobe and Microsoft, so, we knew their partnership was something that we could rely on.”
Dave Thalacker, Ph.D., Senior Director of IT Operations and Network Security.
“We’ve worked with many different e-signature vendors, including DocuSign, but Acrobat Sign provides the most impressive experience, with the best customer consulting and onboarding services.”
Robert Xu, Enterprise Application Solutions Manager, Varian

The Microsoft Outlook add-on makes it so that people don’t even need to leave their most-used application—their email inbox—to add, track, or sign documents securely. And the same can be said for the Acrobat Sign integration within Microsoft Teams, which groups use all day to collaborate and meet.”
Nadia Hansen, Chief Information Officer
