Alternatives Adobe Acrobat Sign
SuperOffice vs Adobe Acrobat Sign
Adobe sells e-signatures as part of Acrobat, so you are buying a full PDF editor as well. Its annual plans, billed monthly, charge half of the remaining year if you cancel more than 14 days after the free trial ends. SuperOffice is a monthly price for one job: write the document, send it, and get it signed.

Why teams switch
Why teams move from Adobe Acrobat Sign
Pay for signing, not a PDF suite
If what you need is to send proposals and contracts for signature, an Acrobat licence carries a lot you won't use. SuperOffice covers the document and the signature, with 16 everyday PDF tools such as merge, compress and protect included.
Start from a sentence, not a blank PDF
Acrobat works on PDFs you already have. SuperOffice writes the document from one line, laid out on your letterhead, then sends it for signature from the same place.
Verification without Acrobat
Your client doesn't need Adobe software to check a signature. The QR code on every SuperOffice signature opens a free public page with who signed and when.
When Adobe Acrobat Sign may be the better fit
Adobe Acrobat Sign is a capable product. It is likely the better choice if:
- You already pay for Acrobat Pro and edit the text of existing PDFs often.
- You need certifications such as FedRAMP, HIPAA or 21 CFR Part 11 for your industry.
- You need government ID checks or notarization arranged through a vendor.
- Your company buys software on enterprise contracts with Adobe.

Can I use SuperOffice instead of Acrobat for e-signatures?
Yes. SuperOffice uploads a PDF or Word file, places the fields, sends each signer a private link and returns a sealed PDF with a certificate page. It does not edit the existing text inside a PDF the way Acrobat Pro does.
Is there a cancellation fee with Adobe Acrobat?
As of Nov 6, 2026, Adobe's page for its annual plan billed monthly says a fee of half your remaining annual commitment applies if you cancel 14 days after your free trial ends.
Does SuperOffice have PDF tools?
Yes, 16 of them: merge, split, remove and extract pages, organise, rotate, compress, JPG to PDF, PDF to JPG, Word to PDF, page numbers, watermark, protect, unlock, sign yourself and request signatures.
Will a SuperOffice-signed PDF open in Adobe Reader?
Yes. It is a normal PDF with the signatures, a certificate page and a digital seal. The fastest way to check it is the public verify page, which needs no software at all.
Is SuperOffice certified for HIPAA or FedRAMP?
No. If your work requires those certifications, Adobe Acrobat Sign is the better fit.
