About HelloSign
What is HelloSign (2026 update)
HelloSign is an electronic signature and document workflow tool, now rebranded and sold as Dropbox Sign, that lets individuals and teams send, sign, and track legally binding documents online. It covers e-signatures, simple digital workflows, and it also offers electronic fax as an add-on service, positioning it as a lightweight alternative to heavier e-signature suites.
What is new in 2026
Dropbox Sign shipped a redesigned mobile web signing experience in 2026, adding a Form View for stepping through fields one at a time and a Drawer Flow that feels closer to a native app than a browser page. Embedded signing now supports Saved Signatures, so a returning signer can reuse a signature they already created instead of drawing or uploading one again. On the admin side, a new SMS Activity Report gives admins visibility into how much the paid SMS verification add-on is actually being used. The Salesforce integration picked up SMS request delivery and signer verification for faster, more secure turnaround inside Salesforce. On the developer side, the API and SDKs got updates, including request-level signature detail controls and more reliable .NET and Ruby SDKs. One notable removal: Dropbox Sign discontinued its SharePoint integration on March 16, 2026.
Key features
- Unlimited signature requests on every paid plan, with no per-envelope fees
- Signature templates for documents you send repeatedly, with a template cap on lower tiers
- Audit trail and tamper-proof document certification on every signed document
- Bulk send for sending the same document to many recipients at once (Standard and up)
- Admin console, custom branding, and reporting for teams (Standard and up)
- SSO, SMS authentication, and data residency controls for larger organizations (Premium)
Pricing in 2026
Dropbox Sign runs a freemium model with three paid tiers. Paid plans are billed annually for the listed monthly rate, and add-ons such as SMS authentication and electronic fax cost extra.
| Plan | Price | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Free | Free | A small number of signature requests per month for basic personal use |
| Essentials | $15/month (1 user, billed annually) | Unlimited signing, 5 templates, basic integrations, audit trail, email support |
| Standard | $25/user/month (billed annually) | Everything in Essentials plus 15 templates, Salesforce integration, admin console, bulk send, branding, and reporting |
| Premium | Custom | Unlimited users and templates, SSO, SMS authentication, data residency, and advanced reporting for 5+ users |
Who should use it
Dropbox Sign fits solo professionals, freelancers, and small teams that just need reliable, unlimited e-signatures without paying for a full contract lifecycle platform. It is also a natural fit if your team already lives in Dropbox, since documents and signing flows connect directly to files you already store there. Teams on Salesforce also benefit from the improved SMS delivery and verification in that integration.
Limitations and alternatives
Dropbox Sign covers signing well but has less document creation and negotiation tooling than heavier platforms, and higher-volume features like SSO and advanced reporting are locked behind a custom Premium quote rather than a published price. If your workflow includes building proposals, contracts, and a content library alongside signing, PandaDoc bundles document creation, a built-in CRM, and signing in one product. If you want the most widely recognized enterprise e-signature brand with the deepest integration ecosystem, DocuSign is the standard comparison point. For teams that truly just need signatures and nothing else, SignWell is often cited as an even lighter, cheaper option to compare against Dropbox Sign.
