Ratifio vs OneSpan Sign

OneSpan has the compliance pedigree. Ratifio has the modern platform.

OneSpan Sign (formerly eSignLive) has been in the regulated signing space for decades, and they know compliance. But their platform carries the weight of that history — legacy APIs, on-premise-first architecture adapted for cloud, and pricing that requires a conversation with sales before you see a number. Ratifio delivers the same compliance depth on a modern, API-first platform.
