ShareFile RightSignature Pricing: RightSignature Cost and a RightSignature Alternative

RightSignature is no longer sold on its own. To buy it today you buy ShareFile Premium, priced per user with a three user minimum, so the smallest bill is $78 a month on annual billing or $85.77 month to month. If signatures are all you need, SignSend is $49 a month or $490 a year for the account.

RightSignature costs what ShareFile Premium costs, because ShareFile no longer sells RightSignature as a standalone product. Premium is $28.59 per user a month paid monthly or $26.00 per user a month billed annually, with a minimum of 3 users. That makes the smallest RightSignature bill $85.77 a month, or $936 a year on annual billing.

ShareFile says it plainly on its RightSignature page: it is "no longer selling a standalone e-signature solution", and new customers are told to buy the Premium plan, which includes e-signature with knowledge-based authentication (KBA) at no extra cost. Existing RightSignature customers keep their current setup. The figures on this page come from ShareFile's US pricing page with both the Pay Monthly and Pay Annually toggles. Many pricing directories still show older RightSignature numbers ($16 to $20 a user, $25 for Premium) or list a plan that no longer includes signing, so the table below is the one to budget from.

How much does RightSignature cost?

RightSignature costs $28.59 per user a month on monthly billing or $26.00 per user a month on annual billing, because the only way to buy it now is ShareFile Premium. With the 3 user minimum, the lowest price is $85.77 a month or $936 a year. The accounting focused Industry Advantage plan, which also includes it, starts at $124.98 a month billed annually.

Industry Advantage$45.83$41.663$124.98Yes
Virtual Data Room$77.00$69.305$346.50Yes

Every figure in the last column is the per user annual rate times the minimum seat count. Paid month to month, the same floors are $54.45 for Advanced, $85.77 for Premium, $137.49 for Industry Advantage and $385.00 for Virtual Data Room. Add a fourth person to Premium and the bill rises by another $26.00 to $28.59 a month.

Can you still buy RightSignature on its own?

No. ShareFile's RightSignature page says it is no longer selling a standalone e-signature solution, and it directs new customers to the ShareFile Premium plan. Existing RightSignature customers can keep using it, and ShareFile says their features and use cases are not changing.

That matters for how you read old reviews. Pricing written before the consolidation described RightSignature as a cheap, simple signing tool. Today the product sits inside a file sharing suite and is billed like one, per user with a minimum. If you are an existing customer weighing a renewal, price the Premium seats you would need if your legacy plan ended, not the number on your last invoice.

Which ShareFile plan includes RightSignature?

Premium is the entry plan that includes RightSignature. Industry Advantage and Virtual Data Room include it too, and the cheapest plan, Advanced, does not. On ShareFile's feature list, Integrated E-Signature, KBA, reusable signature templates and multi-document packages are all marked as included in Premium, Industry Advantage and Virtual Data Room only.

KBA identity checksNoIncludedIncluded
Reusable signature templatesNoIncludedIncluded

Pre-filled client agreementsNoNoIncluded

Does the ShareFile Advanced plan include e-signatures?

No. ShareFile Advanced, at $16.50 per user a month billed annually or $18.15 monthly, is a secure file sharing plan, and its feature list does not include integrated e-signature. Several pricing directories still list an Advanced tier at $16 to $20 a user with unlimited signatures. That describes an older RightSignature price list, not what ShareFile sells today.

This is the easiest budgeting mistake to make on RightSignature pricing: a buyer picks the cheapest plan to save money, then finds the send for signature button is not there. If signing is the reason you are buying, the real entry price is Premium.

How much does ShareFile cost for 3 users?

For three users, ShareFile Premium costs $85.77 a month on monthly billing or $78.00 a month on annual billing, which is $936 for the year. ShareFile Advanced for three users is $54.45 a month or $49.50 a month billed annually, but it does not include e-signature.

Team sizePremium, paid monthlyPremium, billed annually (a year)SignSend Pro, paid monthlySignSend Pro, paid yearly
1 person$85.77 (3 seat minimum)$936$49$490
3 people$85.77$936$49$490
5 people$142.95$1,560$49$490
10 people$285.90$3,120$49$490

SignSend's price does not change with headcount because it is one account, not a set of seats. To be fair about what that means: SignSend has one login per account, not separate user profiles with their own permissions, so it fits an office where one or two people send the paperwork. ShareFile gives every seat its own login, folders and access controls.

Is there a cheaper RightSignature alternative?

Yes. If you only need to send PDFs for legally binding signatures, SignSend Pro is $49 a month or $490 a year for the account, which is $36.77 a month less than the smallest ShareFile Premium bill paid monthly and $446 a year less on annual billing. It includes unlimited documents, unlimited signers, an audit trail and a certificate of completion.

What you give up is real, so weigh it: SignSend has no KBA identity checks, no reusable templates, no multi-document packages, no API and no file sharing portal. It places the signature block for you and has no field editor. For an accountant sending engagement letters, a small law office sending retainer agreements or a contractor sending proposals, that is usually enough. For a firm that verifies client identity on every tax authorization, ShareFile Premium or Industry Advantage is the better buy. Signatures from both tools are valid under the federal ESIGN Act and state UETA laws.

How do you get a RightSignature free trial?

ShareFile offers a trial on its plans, including Premium and Industry Advantage, from the Try Free buttons on its pricing page; the trial length is not stated on that page. Because RightSignature is part of Premium, the trial is how you test it. Plan the trial around the question that decides the purchase: whether you need file sharing, KBA and templates, or just signatures.

If it is just signatures, SignSend lets you send one document free for the life of the account, with up to two signers, without a credit card, so you can see the signing email, the signed PDF and the audit trail before you pay anything.

What the RightSignature price tag does not tell you

Six things to know before you buy three ShareFile seats to get a signature.

There is no RightSignature plan anymore

The standalone product is closed to new buyers. Signing now comes bundled into ShareFile, a secure file sharing platform, so you pay for storage, client portals and co-editing whether you use them or not.

Three users is the floor

Advanced, Premium and Industry Advantage all carry a minimum of 3 users, and Virtual Data Room a minimum of 5. A solo accountant or attorney who needs signatures still pays for three seats.

Advanced does not include e-signature

ShareFile's cheapest plan, Advanced at $16.50 to $18.15 a user, has no integrated e-signature on the feature list. Directories that quote it as a RightSignature price are quoting a plan that cannot send a document for signature.

The annual discount is about 9%

Premium drops from $28.59 to $26.00 per user when billed annually, a saving of $2.59 a user a month. That is small next to the lock-in: ShareFile does not let you move from annual billing back to monthly.

Signing volume is not the constraint

Premium and above allow up to 100,000 documents for e-signature a month at the account level. Nobody in a small office hits that. What you pay for is seats, not sends.

You do get real extras

Premium includes KBA identity checks, reusable templates, multi-document packages and integrations with QuickBooks, Xero and Salesforce. If your practice uses those, the bundle earns its price.

Or send your next document in three steps

If signatures are the only reason you were pricing ShareFile, this is the whole workflow.

01

Upload the PDF

Drag in the finished document, up to 20MB. SignSend signs PDFs, so export from Word or Google Docs first.

02

Add your signers

Type names and email addresses. SignSend places the signature block for you, so there is nothing to drag into position.

03

Send it and get it back signed

Each signer gets an email link and signs on any device without creating an account. The finished PDF carries an audit trail and a certificate of completion.

Who is pricing RightSignature, and what they should buy

Solo CPAs and bookkeepers

Engagement letters and payment authorizations each season. If you already share tax files through ShareFile, Premium is worth it. If you only need the signature, three seats for one person is money spent on nothing.

Small law offices

Retainer agreements and settlement releases need a clean audit trail. A flat signing tool covers that for $49 a month. Choose ShareFile if you also need a client portal for discovery files.

Former RightSignature customers

Your old plan was a signing tool. If a renewal pushes you onto ShareFile seats, compare the new three seat bill with a signing only plan before you accept it.

Accounting firms verifying identity

Firms that need KBA on every Form 8879 or bank authorization should stay on ShareFile Premium or Industry Advantage. SignSend has no identity verification.

Is RightSignature free with ShareFile?

It is included at no extra cost on ShareFile Premium, Industry Advantage and Virtual Data Room. It is not included on ShareFile Advanced, the cheapest plan.

Is RightSignature still available?

Does RightSignature charge per signature?

No. ShareFile Premium and above allow up to 100,000 documents for e-signature a month per account. The cost is per user, not per signature.

Not on the published plans. Advanced, Premium and Industry Advantage all have a minimum of 3 users, and Virtual Data Room a minimum of 5.
