A purpose-built platform to create, collaborate, control,
eSign, and manage all your docs/contracts in one place.
Market leader in electronic signature but lacks basic
docs/contract drafting and management capabilities.
Full feature online document editor for drafting,
editing and formatting of all your docs/contracts.
MS Word / Google Docs
like online editor
No document editor.
Complete collaboration suite. Purpose built,
Real-time, contextual and 100% on-doc.
On-doc comments, suggestions,
chat, attachments, etc.
Very limited on-doc collaboration.
Context is entirely detached from the doc.
Control view, download, edit, forward, etc. rights.
Unprecedented, total platform control with you.
Docs and platform controls
for secure sharing
No document controls beyond password protection.
Very limited platform controls.
No-code, user configurable
workflows for internal approvals.
Internal approval
workflows
No such workflows
for internal approvals.
Easy to use, lightening fast, and legally
binding eSign. Unlimited and FREE.
Legally binding native
electronic signature
Complex to use, glitchy but legally binding
eSign. Prohibitively expensive.
AI powered, purpose-built workspace
that manages half of your work.
AI powered
docs/contracts repository
No more than documents listing. Your work is as
cumbersome as before, perhaps more.
Top of the class, bank grade security with
data encryption at rest and in transit.
Platform, document, data
security and certification
Top platform security and certifications. Not so robust
document security (can be accessed with link by anyone).
In every aspect—be it drafting and editing, collaboration, eSign, document controls—everything, DocuX scores better than every point solution available. It's super easy, intuitive, and fast. It works!

The fact that it sometimes simply does not work. The support team's answer is "use a different browser", "go incognito" and "clear the cache" and re-try everything. This is time-consuming and I have yet to send a successful document for signatures to my team.
It is expensive as hell. It never worked on my outlook and for us to integrate it with salesforce was highway robbery per person.
my @DocuSign customer experience was super horrible. You are claiming "Starting at $12 USD per user per month" on @appexchange. But when I purchased one of your plans I was told I need to upgrade to a $300/month plan in order to make DFS connector working. Seriously??? #Cheating
No more glitches, broken workflows or starting all over again. We have worked very hard to make DocuX robust and easy and intuitive at the same time.
eSign is just a part of your docs/contract lifecycle. You need all-in-one platform including eSign to get work done. DocuSign does not offer that.
DocuSign plans + add-ons are prohibitively expensive. The so-called unlimited plans do have hidden limits. DocuX plans are fair, transparent and truly unlimited.
Move all collaboration and reviews out of mailbox and scattered tools onto the doc. With DocuX, 100% of the internal and external collaboration happens on-the-doc.
Say goodbye to documents scattered across devices, tools, and users. All your docs/contracts are in one place and, every DocuX doc/contract is your reliable, single source of truth.
Unlike DocuSign where anyone can access your document with a link, DocuX protects your docs/contracts from any unauthorized access.
