Since SignNow became part of airSlate, many users have found the platform becoming more complex and expensive. If you're a freelancer, consultant, or small business tired of paying $20+/month or $1.50/signature for features you don't need, BoopSign is the simple, affordable alternative built specifically for you— $12/month, 3-minute setup, zero signer friction.
We analyzed 650 user reviews and pricing changes. Here's what we found about SignNow.
Higher Pricing
SignNow Business plan costs $20/month. For freelancers and small businesses, this is often too expensive for basic e-signature needs.
Slower Signing
