Why Look for a DocuSign Alternative?

DocuSign is the household name for electronic signatures, but for modern enterprises, signing is just one step in a much larger process. When your operations require document generation, complex data routing, and deep integration with your ERP or CRM, DocuSign’s fragmented "Agreement Cloud" can quickly become expensive and disjointed. You need a platform that thinks about the whole document, not just the signature block.

altaFlow brings together document automation, advanced workflow logic, and integrated eSignature capabilities in a single, unified platform. We offer a unified platform where document generation, intelligent workflows, and eSignatures live together natively. Stop paying a premium for a brand name and start automating your actual business processes.

A Complete Lifecycle, Not Just a Signature altaFlow handles everything from data intake and document generation to negotiation, approval routing, and final signature. DocuSign often requires you to purchase separate modules for generation and lifecycle management, creating a patchwork solution.

True No-Code Workflow Power Our platform was built to be driven by business users. With altaFlow, you can build complex, conditional workflows that route documents based on real-time data. DocuSign’s workflow capabilities can be rigid or require significant technical configuration to match our flexibility.

Transparent Pricing Without "Envelope Anxiety" We believe you shouldn’t be penalized for success. altaFlow provides straightforward, all-inclusive pricing that delivers predictability as you scale. DocuSign’s per-envelope or per-user pricing can lead to unpredictable costs as your document volume scales.

Who Benefits from Making the Switch?

Sales Operations

Go beyond just sending a PDF for signature. Automate the generation of complex quotes and contracts directly from Salesforce or NetSuite, route them for internal approval, and get them signed—all in one flow.

HR & People Teams

Transform onboarding from a stack of paperwork into a seamless digital experience. Generate offer letters, tax forms, and policy acknowledgments automatically, ensuring data flows back into your HRIS instantly.

Legal & Compliance

Maintain rigorous control over every version of every agreement. Our immutable audit trails and granular permission settings ensure that you meet strict compliance standards (SOC 2, HIPAA) without slowing down the business.

Finance & Procurement

Streamline vendor agreements and invoice processing. altaFlow pushes data back to your ERP post-signature, eliminating manual data entry errors and ensuring your financial records are always up to date.

Questions & Answers

Is altaFlow a direct replacement for DocuSign?

Yes. altaFlow includes a fully legally binding, compliant eSignature solution that replaces DocuSign. But we go further by also replacing the tools you might use for document generation and workflow routing, giving you three solutions in one.

Is your eSignature legally binding?

Absolutely. altaFlow’s eSignatures are compliant with the ESIGN Act, UETA, and eIDAS, making them legally binding in the US and Europe. We provide the same level of legal validity as DocuSign.

We use Salesforce. How does the integration compare?

altaFlow offers deep, bidirectional integration with Salesforce. Unlike DocuSign, which is often used just to "send" a document from a record, altaFlow can pull data to generate the document, update fields in Salesforce based on signer input, and save the completed file back to the record automatically.

Is migrating from DocuSign to altaFlow difficult?

No. Our customer success team is an expert at migration. We help you move your templates and set up your workflows to ensure you don’t miss a beat. Most customers find they can simplify their processes during the move.

How does your pricing compare to DocuSign? altaFlow typically offers a significantly lower total cost of ownership. Because our eSignature is built-in and our pricing is all-inclusive, you avoid the "add-on" fatigue and overage charges often associated with DocuSign’s enterprise plans.
