    When it makes sense. Keep DocuSign, or challenge it?

    Keep if

    • You use Salesforce or Workday and want native integration.
    DocuSign becomes worthwhile when
    • You use it at least once a week
    • The monthly cost ($10) is small next to the time it saves you

    Challenge if

    • You're looking for a budget solution with minimal documents.
    • You only need simple esignatures without complex workflows.
    DocuSign becomes too expensive when
    • You use it less than once a month
    • A simple free version or a tool already in your stack would do
