What each plan includes
Personal includes 5 envelope sends per month, secure storage, an AI-assisted agreement summary, reusable templates and access to integrations.
Standard adds shared templates, real-time commenting, custom branding and delegated signing, plus one-time bonuses of 5 SMS deliveries and 5 identity verifications.
Business Pro adds mobile-friendly web forms, payment collection during signing, interactive form fields, real-time data verification and bulk send.
Enhanced plans add custom envelope limits, centralized organization management, 24/7 live technical support, advanced security configuration, single sign-on and document generation from within Salesforce.
Understanding envelope limits
An “envelope” is a package of one or more documents sent to one or more recipients for signature. Two points matter for budgeting:
- Standard and Business Pro limits are annual per user. 100 envelopes per user per year averages about 8 per user per month.
- Personal is limited to 5 envelopes per month.
If your team sends many agreements, divide the plan cost by the envelopes you will actually use to see your effective cost.
Add-on costs to watch
As of November 2026, Docusign lists these add-ons for Standard and Business Pro:
| Add-on | Listed starting price |
|---|---|
| SMS delivery | From $0.36 per delivery |
| ID verification | From $2.40 per verification attempt |
Other capabilities, such as advanced Salesforce document generation, SSO and custom envelope limits, are tied to Enhanced or IAM plans.
How to estimate your real cost per signature
Use this simple calculation:
Annual plan cost ÷ envelopes actually sent per year = cost per envelope
Example: a team of 5 on Business Pro pays $540 × 5 = $2,700 per year. If the team sends the full 500 envelopes allowed, the cost is about $5.40 per envelope before add-ons. If they send only 200 envelopes, it is about $13.50 per envelope.
Then add the cost of the work around the signature: creating documents manually, chasing approvals and retyping signed data into your CRM or ERP. These hidden labor costs often exceed the subscription.
Is Docusign free?
Docusign offers a free trial and lets anyone sign documents they receive at no cost. Sending documents for signature requires a paid plan. Docusign is not included free with Microsoft 365.
Ways to reduce e-signature costs
- Right-size seats. Only people who send documents need sender licenses.
- Use templates and bulk send to save time.
- Generate documents automatically instead of building each one by hand.
- Automate post-signature steps, such as CRM and ERP updates.
- Compare platforms that include forms, document generation and workflows in one price.
How Noca compares
Noca includes e-signature as part of a broader platform with online forms, document generation from Word templates, approval workflows and native integrations with Salesforce, HubSpot, NetSuite, SAP and Priority. For teams whose costs come from the manual work around signatures, that can change the math. See Noca vs Docusign or check Noca pricing.
