The short version

PandaDoc
P PandaDoc is a document platform for sales teams: proposals, contracts, quotes, forms, e-signatures for any file and, since 2026, contract management. Its proposal essentials (pricing tables, payments, your branding, reminders and CRM integrations) are on the Business plan, at $65 per person a month.
Nusii
Nusii is built for one document: the proposal that wins you the work. Set your branding once, write from templates, and your client can choose options, sign and pay a deposit in one visit. Three people get all of that for $49 a month, billed monthly.

Choose PandaDoc if you need one tool for every document your company signs. Choose Nusii if proposals are how you win work and you want the whole team sending them, without paying the Business plan for every seat.

I was using PandaDoc before. As I started creating more proposals, I didn’t like their user interface. I spent more time trying to use the tool than writing the proposal! Plus, there were so many features it got overwhelming.

Why switch

Why agencies look for an alternative to PandaDoc

PandaDoc is a capable platform for every kind of document. If proposals are what you mostly send, you end up paying for the whole platform, per seat, to get the proposal features.

  1. 1

    Proposal features cost $65 a seat

    Pricing tables, payments, your branding, reminders and CRM integrations are all on Business, at $65 per person a month.

  2. 2

    A platform for every document

    Contracts, forms, quoting, notary and now contract management. Built for sales teams, with a learning academy, seven certifications and paid onboarding.

  3. 3

    Automations run on credits

    Creating documents through the API, Zapier, Make, bulk send or forms uses paid usage credits, on top of the seat price.

  4. 4

    Starter leaves out the essentials

    Starter is $35 a month and allows 5 templates, with no pricing tables, payments, custom branding, reminders or CRM integrations.

Built for proposals

Made for the document that wins you work

Plans

Everything a proposal needs, without the Business plan

On PandaDoc, the features that help a proposal win are on the Business plan: pricing tables your client can choose from, payments, your own branding, automatic reminders and CRM integrations. That's $65 per person a month, and Starter stops at 5 templates.

Nusii is built around those features. The Agency plan gives three people all of them, with unlimited templates, for $49 a month, and each extra user is $19.

I was looking for a simple proposal platform that wasn’t going to break the bank, that looked professional, and was easy to use. I didn’t need all the bells and whistles other platforms were trying to sell me on. I found that with Nusii. Simple. Clean. Professional.

Pricing

Let clients choose, and watch the total grow

Add optional sections or line items, and your client ticks the ones they want. The total updates as they choose, so an upsell is one click, not another round of emails.

You see when they open your email and your proposal, and Nusii lets you know the moment they accept, so you follow up at the right time.

I can see when a prospective client opens the email and views the proposal, which is really useful for following up. And getting that notification when they accept? Yippee! That never gets old.

Russell Brown, Owner & Director at Digital Stream
Payments

Signed and paid in one visit

Connect Stripe, set a deposit on the proposal, and your client pays by card right after signing, while they're still excited to start. The payment shows up in the proposal's activity.

PandaDoc offers more payment gateways, all on its Business plan. Nusii keeps it to Stripe, on Agency and up.

I love how easy it is to set up and manage the proposal process. Unlike DocuSign, the UI/UX feels comfortable while also being professional by offering signature and payment deposit collection.

Simpler to run

Less to learn, and nothing to meter

Design

Set your brand once. Every proposal follows.

PandaDoc documents are built page by page, with page sizes, margins and themes, and its branding kit is on Business. In Nusii, design is one settings page: your logo, a Classic or Modern layout, two fonts from a handpicked 12 and your colors.

Set it once, and every proposal from everyone on your team comes out on brand, on any screen. Nobody needs a course or a certification to send one.

I can put together a polished proposal quickly without fighting the software, and my clients can review and sign it electronically, which makes it easier for them to say yes and get started.

Janelle Hardin, Founder at Dingo Integrated Marketing
API and AI

Automate it without usage credits

On PandaDoc, documents created through the API, Zapier, Make, bulk send or forms use paid usage credits. Nusii's API comes with every plan from $29 a month, along with a command-line tool and webhooks, so you can create proposals from your CRM or a script and react when clients view, accept or reject them.

Both connect to AI assistants. Nusii MCP works with Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini and Microsoft Copilot: draft from your templates, update pricing and ask about your pipeline. Assistants only work on drafts; sending is always done by you.

Which should you use?

An honest answer: it depends on how you sell

P Stick with PandaDoc if…

  • You sign many documents that aren't proposals: NDAs, HR forms, uploaded PDFs.
  • You want contracts tracked after signing, with renewals and approvals.
  • Your sales team runs on Salesforce and needs quoting tools tied into it.
  • You'd rather start on a free plan, or try it without a credit card.

Good fit: A sales team that sends many kinds of documents, with someone to set up and run the platform.

What PandaDoc does well

  • E-signatures for any document, including uploaded PDFs, with ID checks and notary
  • Five payment gateways, with recurring and installment payments
  • About 19 CRM integrations, plus quoting tools and a product catalog
  • Approval workflows, and contract management after signing
  • A free plan, and a 14-day trial without a credit card

Choose Nusii if…

  • Proposals are how you win work, and they're most of what you send.
  • Your signed proposal is the agreement: scope, price, terms and signature in one place.
  • Everyone on your team writes proposals, not just one admin.
  • You'd rather pay month to month, and less for each person you add.

Good fit: An agency or consultancy of one to fifteen people whose proposals bring in the work.

The trade-offs

  • Signs proposals only: no uploaded PDFs, NDAs or HR forms
  • No approval workflows, contract management or Salesforce integration
  • Stripe only for payments
  • The free trial asks for a credit card (with a 60-day money-back guarantee)

Switching

Moving from PandaDoc to Nusii

Your proposals come with you as content. Copy your best one in once, and Nusii turns the parts you repeat into templates and reusable sections.

What comes with you

Your templates
Copy your best proposal into Nusii once and save it as a template. Keep a PDF of it from PandaDoc beside you while you do.
Your content library
About us, case studies, terms and pricing become reusable sections you drop into any proposal.
Your look
Your logo, brand colors, fonts and a cover image appear on every proposal you send.

What works differently

The layout
Nusii uses a theme rather than fixed pages, so page sizes and placed blocks don't carry over. Your words, prices and images do, and the proposal reads well on any screen.
Your other documents
Nusii signs proposals. If you also send NDAs or uploaded PDFs for signing, keep a separate e-signature tool for those.
When to switch
Download your signed PandaDoc documents before you cancel, so you keep a copy of everything your clients signed.

How we help

  • Most people are set up within a day.
  • We'll jump on a call to help set up your account and first template.
  • Free proposal templates to start from if you'd rather not copy your own.

Start from a free proposal template or see how templates work.

Proposals are such a big part of my business and I wanted to try and make creating them much less of a burden, both timewise and not having to start from scratch each time. Nusii provides a simple way to create ‘template’ blocks or proposal templates that allow you to customise very easily.

Customers who switched

Teams whose proposals bring in the work

Sending proposals through Nusii saved us an average of 2 hours per proposal, and increased closed/won deal conversion rate by 41%.

Rebecca ShaddixManaging Partner, Strategica Partners

Simple to get set up and use. I’ve tried other proposal tools and clients found them complicated and hard to understand. Nusii is straightforward and gives me everything that I need to get clients to proposals created and signed. Happy and thankful customer.

Sean AtkinsonOwner, Majority Media LLC

We started Jumping Rivers 10 years ago. For the first couple of years, we struggled to send, format, and track proposals. We tried a few options, then happily settled on Nusii. Simple and easy to use.

Frequently asked questions

PandaDoc vs Nusii: your questions

What’s the difference between Nusii and PandaDoc?

PandaDoc is a document platform: proposals, contracts, forms, quotes and contract management, for sales teams of any size. Nusii does proposals only, for agencies and consultancies: you write from templates, your client chooses options, signs and pays a deposit, and you see every step. That focus is why there's little to learn, and why three people pay $49 a month instead of $195.

Is Nusii cheaper than PandaDoc?

For teams, yes. PandaDoc's proposal features (pricing tables, payments, branding, reminders and CRM integrations) are on Business, at $65 per person a month, so three people pay $195 a month. Nusii's Agency plan includes those for three people at $49 a month, and each extra user is $19. On your own, PandaDoc Starter is $35 a month, but it has no pricing tables or payments and allows 5 templates; Nusii Freelancer is $29. Prices as of October 2026, billed monthly.

Can Nusii handle my contracts?

If your contract is part of your proposal, yes: put your scope, prices and terms in the proposal, and your client signs it online, with a signed PDF for both of you. Nusii doesn't sign other documents, like NDAs, HR forms or PDFs you upload. If you send a lot of those, PandaDoc covers more.

Can my clients pay through Nusii?

Yes. Connect Stripe and your client can pay a deposit right after signing, in the same visit, on the Agency and Business plans. PandaDoc offers more payment gateways, including PayPal and Square, on its Business plan.

Does Nusii have a free plan like PandaDoc?

No. Nusii has a 14-day free trial, which asks for a credit card, and every plan comes with a 60-day money-back guarantee. PandaDoc has a free eSign plan for 5 documents a month, and a 14-day trial without a card.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. Nusii bills month to month, you can cancel anytime from your account, and every plan has a 60-day money-back guarantee.

Does Nusii limit how many proposals I can send?

Not by the month. Nusii doesn't count what you send and has no usage credits, but each plan caps how many proposals can await an answer at once: 5 on Freelancer, 20 on Agency and 50 or more on Business. A proposal stops counting when the client accepts or rejects it, or when you archive it.

Is Nusii easier to use than PandaDoc?

For proposals, most people find it so, because there's less of it to learn. You set your branding once, write in sections and the theme handles the layout. PandaDoc covers many more kinds of documents, and its learning academy has seven certifications to help teams get the most out of it.

Does Nusii integrate with my CRM?

Nusii connects to HubSpot, Pipedrive, OnePageCRM and Less Annoying CRM, and to hundreds more tools through Zapier and Make. It also works with Stripe, Slack, Basecamp and seven live chat tools, and the API and webhooks come with every plan. If your sales team runs on Salesforce or Microsoft Dynamics, PandaDoc integrates with those and Nusii doesn't.

Can I use Claude or ChatGPT with Nusii, like with PandaDoc?

Yes. Both connect to AI assistants through MCP. Nusii MCP works with Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini and Microsoft Copilot on every plan: draft proposals from your templates, update pricing and ask about your pipeline. Assistants only work on drafts; sending is always done by you.

How do I move from PandaDoc to Nusii?

Copy your best proposal into Nusii and save it as a template, then turn the parts you reuse into sections. Most people are set up within a day, and we'll jump on a call to help. Download your signed PandaDoc documents before your plan ends.
