  • Only HelloSign has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: ConstructConnect project Intelligence is priced per market at $129 per month for Starter and from $199 per month for Professional, so covering more geographic markets multiplies the cost; HelloSign free plan limited to only 3 documents per month, insufficient for most business use cases
  • They diverge on capability: ConstructConnect covers Project leads, HelloSign covers Electronic signatures.
