Legally binding documents
Both DocHub and PandaDoc provide secure and legally compliant (per the ESIGN Act and eIDAS) electronic signatures for your PDF documents. Simply upload documents to the platform, use the online PDF editor tools to add the appropriate form fields, and issue a sign request for signers.
However, PandaDoc provides tools and functionality that go beyond a traditional document signing platform like DocHub or DocuSign. In addition to e-signing, you can also create documents from scratch, collaborate with signers, create advanced document templates, and much more.
DocHub tries to offset this by offering solutions with partnerships from pdfFiller and SignNow, but the extra tools and functionality brought through these partnerships can be even more confusing.
Safe storage for your docs
Just like DocHub, PandaDoc allows you to integrate with storage tools like Google Drive, Dropbox, or Box to import your documents to edit and e-sign PDFs. SSL encryption and strong user authentication protocols also ensure that your documents are secure while on either platform.
A key difference is that PandaDoc offers unlimited onboard storage for all signed contracts. That means you won’t have to worry about exporting your documents or housing them off site once the signing process is complete (although it’s possible to do exactly that with CRM and storage integrations).

User-friendly PDF editor
DocHub and PandaDoc both provide basic PDF sign and edit processes. Before it’s time to sign documents, editors can insert fillable fields, whiteout unwanted text, and add annotations.
However, PandaDoc offers document editing options that are much closer to Adobe Sign or Microsoft Word than DocHub. Using the PandaDoc editor, you can insert images (JPG & PNG) and videos, copy/paste and reformat content, add additional form fields and much more.
Why switch from DocHub to PandaDoc?
All-in-one document workflow
PandaDoc gives you the tools you need to handle every aspect of the document process. Create documents entirely from scratch (or import your .DOCX, .PPT., and .TXT files) to a document editor that allows for unparalleled customization. Create beautiful proposals, advanced contracts, stunning PDF forms, and more. And, when you’re done, use the same toolkit to send your form for e-signature. Save time by making PandaDoc your go-to tools or all document production.
Pricing beyond the basics
While DocHub offers a variety of tools at a great price, most of the features provided lack the ability to do more than e-signing and simple format modification for PDF documents. PandaDoc offers most of those same tools at competitive prices, but we also offer tools that scale with the needs of your organization. Small businesses can thrive on the Essentials plan, while larger organizations will find the team management and permissions in the Business and Enterprise plans especially useful when scaling operations.
Integrations from A to Z
When you just want to edit PDF files or you’re tired of tracking contracts from your Gmail inbox or Chrome browser, PandaDoc can help you send secure, encrypted contracts and capture unlimited eSignatures in the process. Using our tools, you can build incredible business documentation, get documents signed, and much more. For users who want to go beyond the basics, PandaDoc also offers integrations with key CRMs like HubSpot and Salesforce, as well as connections for services that can help your team excel in what they do.
Collect payments fast
No matter whether you’re a freelancer or a large business, collecting payment is key to closing the deal. With DocHub, you’ll have to do that somewhere else. Usually, that involves extra paperwork and an additional payment gateway. With PandaDoc, you can collect payments in seconds by connecting your payment gateway to your PandaDoc account. It’s a quick and easy way to close deals without additional paperwork.
The mobile experience you need
Unfortunately, no DocHub app exists, so you won’t be able to enjoy a mobile-optimized experience like you can with the PandaDoc app. While DocHub is accessible through a mobile browser, the PandaDoc app allows users to create, edit, and monitor documents from anywhere with tools fit for purpose. It’s a game changer for teams on the go.
Support — anytime, anywhere
DocHub offers the ability to submit tickets for support if you can’t find what you need inside their knowledge base. But sometimes, you need help and don’t want to break your flow to search for answers. With 24/7 chat support from PandaDoc, you won’t have to. Our support team is on standby around the clock to help with troubleshooting so that you can get your questions answered and get back to work.
