Docusign has 7,400 employees. TFA doesn’t bother to mention anything about their revenue. Gross is $622 million. Net is -$45 million. Somehow they are losing money on document signing software despite having overcome, to their credit, resistance to the concept and developing something like a monopoly.<p>How are they losing so much money?
My company is developing a digital signatures platform called Bulksign <a href="https://bulksign.com" rel="nofollow">https://bulksign.com</a><p>We want to encourage broader use of advanced digital signatures and we are giving the on-premise version of this platform for FREE to any NON-PROFIT organization from anywhere in the world which wants it.<p>With droughts and up to 10l of water being used to make 1 sheet of A4 paper, i think natural resources are better spent elsewhere and digital documents and digital signatures should become the norm.
I ran IT for a company of about 50 employees and paying for DocuSign was a huge line item on our fixed overhead. It's way too expensive/unreasonable for smaller companies. They setup this pricing plan to sell to Honeywell or something and then expect everyone else to pay the same.
School IT guy here.. DocuSign made multiple pitches to our district and they all fell flat. Really seemed to be cold call marketing a product … that is not as valuable as they try an protray.<p>We have been digitally signing document and digitally registering students .. for over a decade … Docusign did not make the process any easier. Pass.
What is a good alternative? Would like something that works well with scale and bulk sends (e.g. where the doc is the same but name is different for each recipient)
I'm sure they grew quite a bit during the height of covid (like Zoom) but everyone is now scaling back with this recession looming. Sad regardless.
