Better Proposals vs Proposify

Better Proposals is a web service for preparing and sending proposals and other documents, with built-in electronic signatures, payment collection, and client activity tracking.

Users can take payments through documents and proposals, with integrations including Stripe, GoCardless, and PayPal. Advanced CRM integrations are available for HubSpot and Salesforce. The service supports custom branding and offers more than 260 free document templates. Teams can assign roles, manage access and permissions, track progress, and control who can send documents. Signatures are stated to comply with EU and US electronic signature legislation. Proposals are designed for phones and computers, and the service is accessible wherever there is an internet connection. Starter costs $13 per user per month when billed annually and allows one seat and 10 documents each month. There is no free plan; a 14-day trial requires no credit card or cancellation.

Proposify is a web app for sales teams to create, send, track, and close customized proposals. Its drag-and-drop editor handles text, images, video, tables, and shapes, and interactive quotes let buyers select optional fees or enter quantities.

Documents can be created without a plan limit, though monthly send allowances vary: Basic includes 10, Team 30, and Business 75. All plans allow legal e-signatures, and the service supports online payment collection, custom branding, and CRM integrations. Proposals are created and sent in the web app; an iOS companion app monitors proposal activity. A 14-day trial includes Team plan features. Basic costs $19/user/mo when billed annually, while Basic monthly costs $29/user/mo and Team quarterly costs $49/user/mo. The company states that proposals use encrypted links and 256-bit SSL security, and that it is GDPR compliant and SOC 2 Type 2 certified.
