Use when

You are signing with counterparties who expect a recognised e-signature provider.

Skip when

You sign occasionally, where a cheaper tool does the same job.

Chosen for recognition rather than features: banks, investors and corporates accept a DocuSign envelope without argument, which matters more than price when you are closing something. Electronic signatures are legally recognised in Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana and South Africa, though some instruments - certain land and will documents - still require wet ink, so check the instrument, not just the country.
