SealVow vs SignNow

SignNow is affordable. But 'affordable' doesn't mean 'suitable for legal practice'.

SignNow offers competitive pricing and decent features for general business signing. But law firms have specific needs — SRA-ready audit trails, firm-branded client experiences, and document integrity verification — that a general-purpose budget tool doesn't prioritise. Price matters, but so does the audit trail your compliance partner will review.

Why teams switch from SignNow

Your firm's name, not ours

Signing emails come from your domain. The signing page carries your firm's branding. Your clients see a professional experience that feels like an extension of your practice, not a third-party tool.

Clients sign in 30 seconds

No account creation. No app download. No 'verify your email' interruption. Your client clicks a link, reviews the document, signs it, done. Completion rates above 90% because you removed every barrier.

SRA-ready audit trail

Every signature records IP address, browser, timestamp, and explicit consent text. Full chain of custody from upload to completion. Exportable audit certificates that satisfy regulatory enquiries.

Document integrity you can prove

Every document is SHA-256 hashed at upload. The hash is recorded immutably before signing begins. If anyone questions whether the document was altered, you have cryptographic proof.

The bottom line

SignNow is a solid budget option for general business signing. If you're a law firm that needs audit trails your compliance partner will trust and a signing experience that reflects your firm's professionalism, SealVow is worth the difference.
