What does Nitro Sign Standard do?

Nitro Sign Standard is a cloud-based tool for sending, signing, and tracking documents online. You can bundle one or several files into a single envelope, add fillable form fields, set a parallel or sequential signing order, and follow each recipient's progress through an audit trail. Signatures produced this way are legally recognized under eIDAS, UETA, and the ESIGN Act. It is built for individuals and small teams that need direct signing rather than automated, high-volume workflows.

Who is Nitro Sign Standard best suited for?

Nitro Sign Standard fits individuals and small teams that send documents for signature regularly but do not need automation or central administration. A freelancer sending client agreements, or a small office collecting signed approvals, gets envelope sending, five reusable templates, and live status tracking without paying for enterprise tooling. Teams that need bulk sending, shared templates, or centralized branding will reach the plan's ceiling and should consider Nitro Sign Plus. The Standard tier trades scale features for a lower, predictable cost.

What is the difference between Nitro Sign Standard and Plus?

The main difference is automation and team control. Standard covers core signing — envelopes, form fields, audit trails, manual reminders, sequential signing, and five individual templates. Plus adds bulk sending, unlimited and shared team templates, custom branding, Single Sign-On (SSO), and OTP two-factor authentication. If more than one person manages signing, or you reuse many templates, Plus removes the limits that Standard keeps in place.

Does Nitro Sign Standard include advanced or qualified electronic signatures?

No. Nitro Sign Standard provides standard electronic signatures only; Advanced (AES) and Qualified Electronic Signatures (QES), together with ZertES support, are reserved for the Enterprise plan. For most US and general EU business agreements under UETA, ESIGN, and eIDAS, a standard electronic signature is legally valid. If your jurisdiction specifically requires QES — common in some regulated EU transactions — Standard will not meet that bar and you would need Enterprise. API access and integrations such as Salesforce and Microsoft Power Automate are also Enterprise-only.

Can Nitro Sign Standard send one document to several signers?

Yes. Standard supports parallel signing, where all recipients sign at once, and sequential signing, where the document routes to signers in a set order. You can also combine several files into one envelope so a recipient handles them in a single request, then send manual reminders to anyone who has not yet signed. Bulk sending — one template distributed to many recipients as separate copies — is not part of Standard and requires Plus.

Frequently asked questions about Nitro Sign Standard

How is document usage counted in Nitro Sign Standard?

Only fully completed envelopes — those signed by every party — count toward your usage allowance. Drafts, sent-but-unsigned documents, and envelopes that are never completed do not reduce your quota. This fair-use model keeps costs predictable for low-volume signing.

Does Nitro Sign Standard limit how many forms I can store?

No — the Standard plan includes unlimited form creation and upload storage, so you can build and keep as many fillable forms as you need. What is capped are reusable workflow templates, limited to five on this tier. Users who reuse many document types but need more than five saved templates should look at Plus.
