Pricing Transparency is Essential for Customers
Our article on pricing transparency apparently struck a nerve with readers
We were working to verify a new customer’s comments that he recently left HD over a large annual price increase and a three-year 
contract that called for 12% increases each year. We assigned the research task to our best research AI bot and on March 27 it reported posted prices of $800 for an author version and $99 per month for a user. It referenced the source as https://mitratech.com/resource-hub/blog/how-much-does-hotdocs-cost/ but when we attempted to manually verify that information on March 31, we found only This is awkward, but we can’t find that page!
For ourselves, we can’t get comfortable with firms that don’t disclose pricing up front. On the other hand, we’re proud of our industry-leading pricing and share it.
If the $800 figure is accurate, it’s mind-boggling to pay that much for a program that is difficult to learn and will only produce one document at a time.
With the assistance of customers and OpenAI, we’ve built a webpage comparing Hotdocs with Doxserá. We invite you to take a look.
We’re also recommending Bill Cutchins’ instructions on converting forms and his firm for those who want to outsource. One new customer firm is using it with great success to convert 1,000 of its forms.
For a great primer on converting HD’s forms to Doxserá or DB, see Bill Cutchin’s Converting Templates from HotDocs© to TheFormTool’s Products.
