So the only thing I will say is that the problem with a "DocuSign" alternative is that docusign is more accepted within the proffesional community and when docusign says something was signed it's trusted. In this case what is to say you don't modify the data or something similar, I know you could send out a confirmation e-mail or whatever but you get my point.
But ofcourse I will always take more apps that can be selfhosted :D
In my case, i volunteer with an animal rescue called Sanctuary Hostel and we have board members and sometimes they need to sign things, a lot of them are weird and will physically print, sign and then scan rather than use a pdf app with signing/ drawing functionality, and if it requires multiple signatures on a single page, i have to cut and paste from each signer onto a single document
Some members will forget to sign so if the app keeps reminding them that is great as well as it means i dont have to chase them
So a docusign type option would be perfect for us and save all of us hassle
