Ask HN: Why is Docusign a $50B company?
9 by akouri | 3 comments on Hacker News.
I have been searching for a solution to e-sign some lease agreements. It is something that I need to do maybe once a year and the only thing I need is a legally binding way to put signatures and timestamps on a PDF. I do not need any fancy features. I was doing research, and it seems like most document signature companies all charge monthly subscription fees! This does not work for me as I am not using the platform on a monthly basis. Are there free, open source alternatives to Docusign? If so, why do more companies not use them?

I'm bored/disappointed with all the major tech companies, including Google/Alphabet, Apple, Facebook, Intel, Twitter, Zoom, Slack, Amazon, Microsoft, pretty much all the unicorns that come out of Silicon Slopes, and several more. Innovation largely seems to have stopped. Products and services shut down. Walls put up. Costs inflated. Privacy deflated. Overall lower user experience and satisfaction. It's pretty discouraging. So tell me, what companies are you excited about and why? Who's actually making a positive difference and changing the world for good these days? * Non-profits count too. * Yes there are some exceptions (e.g. Apple's M1 chip; Google's Go language continues to get better) but on the whole these advances seem minor considering the companies' nearly infinite size and resources.
