What is an electronic signature?
Electronic signatures (or e-signatures) allow teams to sign documents electronically, saving time and eliminating paperwork while accelerating deals and approvals.
While many e-signature tools are available on the market today, they’re typically offered as a standalone solution. Teams need to upload documents, prepare them for e-signing, and send them to recipients.
PandaDoc differs by providing an end-to-end document solution to help teams create, send, track, and e-sign documents in one place. When combined with our built-in document editor, robust integrations, and real-time tracking features, teams using PandaDoc can close deals faster while capturing legally compliant e-signatures.

- Cost of PandaDoc is calculated by using the current cost of one (1) PandaDoc business seat license at the annual subscription rate
- Based on PandaDoc’s internal data, the median minutes from agreement creation to agreement send for the top 10% of our clients with company sizes 11+ on a business subscription using our editor function in February of 2023 was 3 minutes.
- When we calculated the cost / hour of an employee, we considered the average US Salary from the US Bureau of Labor Statistics Q1 2023 report.
- We calculated working hours at 2,087 to account for year-to-year fluctuations in working days over a 28-year period, rounded down from 2,087.143 hours (Since, there aren’t exactly 52 weeks (362 days) every year, usings a 28 year period helps provide a more accurate distribution of working hours (Indeed Editorial Team, “How Many Work Hours in a Year”, Indeed.com (Feb. 27, 2023)).

Powerful features for seamless e-signing
Give your team a faster, more flexible way to prepare, send, and sign contracts, proposals, and quotes with an all-in-one document solution.
Access complete histories for every document
PandaDoc provides a complete audit trail for every document that begins at creation. Users can see a detailed log of who viewed, signed, and interacted with the document, along with precise timestamps for every action taken by sales reps, stakeholders, and signers. This built-in transparency makes it easier to meet legal standards, maintain compliance, and prove document validity at every step of the preparation and signing process.
Document tracking
Add custom signing orders for faster turnarounds
Documents like contracts, HR forms, and business proposals often require more than one signature. With PandaDoc, teams can assign multiple signers, designate a signing order, and control how documents move between stakeholders and recipients. Once you set up a signing order, the document will automatically be sent out to recipients one by one. Checking your email notifications enables you to stay up to date with the document signing process.
Signing order
Save time with snippets and unique document templates
Using the content library, PandaDoc users can create reusable document templates and content blocks (snippets) so that generating polished, on-brand sales collateral is quick and easy. Want to kickstart your process? Rather than building from scratch, use one of the documents from our template library and modify it to fit your brand and product or service selection. Once the document is complete, add it to your template library for fast and easy reuse.
Content library
Customize documents with a simple drag-and-drop
Use the built-in drag-and-drop document editor to quickly add or adjust fields, text, pricing tables, and more without waiting for design professionals or IT support.
Verify identity and confirm valid signatures
Every signed document includes a digital certificate that validates a signer’s identity, time of signing, and tamper-proof status, ensuring that every e-signature is fully legal and compliant.

Frequently asked questions
Are PandaDoc e-signatures legally binding?
Yes! PandaDoc e-signatures are legally binding and compliant with major electronic signature laws, including ESIGN, UETA, eIDAS, and GDPR.
Every signed document is accompanied by a digital certificate and a full audit trail to verify signer identity, date, and intent to sign. This is done to ensure that documents signed through PandaDoc can hold up to legal scrutiny.
For users who need additional identity protection, PandaDoc also coordinates with third-party identification apps to validate stakeholders before they can access and sign a document.
Can I sign a document on my phone?
Absolutely. PandaDoc is mobile-friendly, so recipients can review and sign documents from any smartphone or tablet without needing to download an app or create an account.
For teams who want to do more while on the go, the PandaDoc app allows for improved document management and dashboard access, but it’s not required to sign and finalize a document.
Does PandaDoc integrate with Salesforce?
It does. PandaDoc integrates with Salesforce, HubSpot and over a dozen other leading CRM solutions.
However, Salesforce and HubSpot are unique because they offer a two-way data sync that isn’t available with other CRM solutions. This means that data can pass seamlessly to and from PandaDoc. Customer data is pulled into PandaDoc to fill document variables, and PandaDoc documents can be initiated, created, and stored within the opportunities generated by Salesforce or HubSpot.
What makes PandaDoc different from DocuSign?
While both PandaDoc and Docusign offer e-signing, only PandaDoc offers an all-in-one, end-to-end document platform that can handle creation, preparation, e-signing, and storage.
With Docusign, users need to prepare documents in other apps (Word, Google Docs, etc.) because Docusign only offers minimal document prep and limited storage. Plus, the number of documents you can sign with Docusign is capped by the transaction limits on your plan.
PandaDoc is different. Users can create, send, sign, and store documents within a single platform. Users also don’t have to worry about transaction limits and can send as many documents as they want for digital signature.

Is there an audit trail for signed documents?
Every document signed within PandaDoc includes a detailed audit trail showing who opened, viewed, and signed it. Additional metadata includes timestamps and IP addresses, allowing for additional legal verification and compliance.
