Dropbox Sign (formerly HelloSign) Reviews & Product Details

It's easy to use. Just click on the blue boxes. It's affordable as a small business.You can connect it to Google Drive for organizing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The click to sign box should be easier to identify by changing the background of the box. There should be an option to send by text to sign. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best thing about this is that it automatically saves the signed version directly to your Dropbox in the same folder, so there is no need to download a copy each time. There is also a feature that allows you to notify a third party when the document is signed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have used this program for over a year. The older version worked well, but ever since the update that was installed a couple of months ago, there are so many glitches that are still unresolved.

1) When you drag any box (date signed, full name, textbox, etc.) over to put it on a line where you or your client should fill in any information, the text automatically appears in an oversized textbox, with the text floating in the top left corner, never actually on the line. When you hover the box over the line, it appears to fit directly where you want it, but when you place it, the text floats up to the top left, off of the line, so you have to adjust its position every time after first placing it.

2) I always type my name as the signature. In the edit box it shows up fine, but a tiny bit of the first letter is always cut off when I place my signature on the actual page.

3) The initials are always WAY too large to be put on a line the size of an average document. I resize them every time.

4) The copy/paste function is messed up. For example, I use contracts that have a line for clients to initial at the bottom of each page. I resize the initials on the first page then hit Ctrl-C. As I scroll down to the other pages in my document, my screen has to be in a very specific place on the page in order for the CTRL-P function to work. For example, if I am showing the top part of a page but the bottom right corner, where I want the initials box to be copied, is not in view for lack of scrolling down all the way, it will not paste. If I scroll down to where I can just barely see the bottom right corner, it works. However, if I scroll too far past the bottom right corner, barely onto the other page, the entire document goes blank. When this happens, I have to CTRL-Z to go back, at which point the paste command no longer works, and neither does the copy command when I try to go back up to copy the original intials box. The annoying fix in this case is to undo the attempted paste, create a new initials box since it no longer allows me to copy the first one, resize it because as I mentioned it is always disproportionately large for the page, hoping that it is close enough in size to the first box I created, and go down from there to paste it on each of the following pages. There should be an easy duplicate on each page option, or at the least, these glitches should be fixed.

5) I wish there were a way to view any document I pull up in a certain preset format. For example, because of the huge size of the signature box, I usually opt for "Fit to Width" at the top right. This is just another step I need to take with every document that could be easily fixed with preferred settings options.

6) I would like to see a quick option to add lines for signature for those contracts that I receive that do not already have signature lines. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What's most helpful about Dropbox Sign is that you create your agreement once, and your staff just plugs in the variables, like names, effective dates, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only thing I dislike about Droprox Sign is you can't change the variables once you 've sent the item out for signature. Sometimes we'll get a customer who wants to omit a middle name, or add an initial, and instead of fixing it, we have to scrap the whole thing and start over. It's no big deal, but if you're dealing with a customer who's already a pain, having to re-do their contract might make you grumpy for a min. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Dropbox sign is incredibly easy to use. I have dropbox set up on my computer so that on a right click drop down I shoose "send for signature" and it launches without having to go to the website directly. My customers find it very sinple to use on their end and it has made obtaining a signature extremely easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When I request a signature and it sends an email, I wish there was a template for the email message so that I did not have to type it out each time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Dropbox sign has a very easy to follow format. I like that I can save templates (5 is plenty for me) making sending repetative documents quick and seamless. The other advantage is how quickly I can send a template with minimal input to get it quickly to the client. I also think the settings that allows me to set when I receive emails is very helpful in keeping track of outstanding signatures, and receiving status updates. This product is very cost effective which is why I switched from Docusign. I have recommended this product to other insurance agents. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is nothing I dislike. The platform is easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I feel that DropBox Sign demonstrates an industry standard. We can use the program for the most basic of documents to many complex situations. They have a significant amount of training documents available to show you how to go a step beyond the basics. But when needed you get top notch assistance directly from a representative. It has the ability to customize forms, save templates and so much more that streamlines your work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only thing I cannot do, that I really would like, is to have more than one signer per form for Links. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that all you have to do is mark where clients are to sign and it is so simple - almost 99% of client's know - understand what needs to be done because of the simple instructions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is nothing I can think of. It is easy to use and I do not have a problem with using them or sending to clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have used Dropbox Sign since before it was owned by Dropbox and it seems to have always been solid. With the move to Dropbox the deliverability of the emails seems improved and overall the functionality remains robust enough for day to day signatures. It's fast and efficient for getting through a e-sign process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The system works pretty much as expected and has the same basic signing features (ordering, variable inputs, multiple doc type uploads, etc) as competitors. The Google Docs plugin, however, has been improved but still isn't up to par. It doesn't remember past contacts for signature so it's cumbersome to use for quick revisions which is the entire point of a plugin vs the website. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love that it's very intuitive and easy to get documents to the right people for signatures. It's also very easy for the client to sign, date, or initial because the document won't complete until they've done each one. We sometimes have tech challenged clients and this process can be done on a mobile phone too. We frequently utilize the program due to our clients distance from our design cener. Customer support is efficient, it's easy to implement and integrate within your business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I always have to log in via email. I wish it would "remember me". Sometimes, the application runs slow when downloading the documents for signature, but you just have to be patient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how simple it is to use, and how quickly customer support is there to help when I need it. It has so many different features and very easy to make it apart of your everyday process. I use dropbox sign everyday to help me and my business. I love how it updated me when clients sign so I can stay on top of my work. The templates make it easier to navigate through the process rather than uploading one each time! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only think I do not like is how I cannot edit the templates I upload. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
