The problem
The Adobe Sign pricing problem
Adobe bundles e-signatures with Acrobat. You pay for PDF tools you may not need, and advanced e-signature features require enterprise pricing.
02
Paso 2: Per-user pricing adds up
Acrobat Pro with Sign: $22.99/user/mo. For a team of 10, that's $2,760/year before any add-ons.
03
Paso 3: Advanced features locked
Bulk sending, API access, advanced workflows, and branding require enterprise plans with custom pricing.
04
Paso 4: No standalone option
You can't buy just e-signatures from Adobe. The Acrobat bundle is mandatory, inflating your per-signature cost.
AllSign: e-signatures without the bundle tax
Pay only for what you use. AllSign gives you enterprise e-signatures with stamp-based pricing: $0.50 per document, $1.00 with OTP, $2.00 with ID verification. No PDF editor tax, no ecosystem lock-in.

Integration
Ecosystem lock-in vs open API
Adobe Sign works seamlessly within Adobe products. But if your stack isn't Adobe-centric, you're paying for an ecosystem you don't use.
| Concept | AllSign | Adobe Sign |
|---|---|---|
| Best suited for | Any tech stack | Adobe Acrobat users |
| API access | Included from Pro plan | Enterprise plans required |
| Integration model | REST API + Webhooks | Adobe-first ecosystem |
Don't pay for tools you don't use
If your team doesn't need Adobe Acrobat, why pay for it? AllSign gives you enterprise e-signatures, identity verification, and WhatsApp delivery without the PDF editor tax. API-first — connect with any CRM, ERP, or custom application.
