The DocuSign alternative built for small teams
Get proposals, e-signatures, and payment collection in one tool - without enterprise pricing or per-envelope fees.
Why businesses switch from DocuSign
DocuSign charges $45-65 per user monthly. OpenProposal is just $29-99/mo flat for your entire team. A 5-person team saves $2,000+ per year.
DocuSign is signatures-only. You'll need separate tools for proposals and payments. OpenProposal does it all.
DocuSign was built for enterprises. OpenProposal focuses on what freelancers and small businesses actually need.
