Contract Tracking Alternative
Track Contracts Without DocSend
You don't need a $45/seat enterprise tool to know if someone opened your contract. ShareDoc gives you the same visibility — who viewed it, which pages they read, how long they spent — completely free.
Start tracking freeThe uncomfortable truth about contract tracking
Most account executives are paying premium prices for basic PDF tracking because "that's what everyone uses." But here's the reality: tracking whether someone opened your contract isn't rocket science. It's a simple feature being sold at enterprise prices.
ShareDoc does everything you need — instant alerts when contracts are opened, detailed page-by-page analytics, and time spent on each section — without the bloated features or per-seat pricing that makes DocSend cost thousands per year for a small team.
3 reasons you don't need DocSend for contracts
1. You're paying for features you'll never use
Virtual data rooms, deal rooms, advanced permissions — sounds impressive, right? But for tracking contracts, you need exactly three things: know when it's opened, see which pages get attention, and capture contact info. That's it. Everything else is enterprise theater.
2. Per-seat pricing destroys your budget
At $45 per user per month[1], a 5-person sales team pays $2,700/year just to track PDFs. That's before you add anyone else who might need access — managers, support staff, new hires. With ShareDoc, your entire team tracks unlimited contracts for $29/month total.
3. Complex tools create friction, not efficiency
The average contract review already takes 92 minutes per document[2]. The last thing you need is a complicated platform that requires training, IT approval, and a manual for basic tracking. ShareDoc works in 30 seconds — upload, share, track. No learning curve.
How to track contracts in 4 simple steps
Step 1: Upload your contract PDF
Drag and drop your contract into ShareDoc. No account setup, no credit card, no sales calls. Just upload and go. Works with any PDF up to 100MB.
Step 2: Get your trackable link
ShareDoc generates a secure link instantly. Copy it and send via email, Slack, or any communication channel. The link works everywhere — no special software needed on their end.
Step 3: Know the moment they open it
Get instant notifications when your contract is viewed. See exactly who opened it (with optional email capture), what time they viewed it, and from what location. No more guessing if they received it.
Step 4: See what matters to them
Watch which pages they spend time on. If they're stuck on pricing for 5 minutes or skipped straight to terms, you'll know. Use these insights to follow up with relevant context instead of generic "just checking in" emails.
What contract tracking looks like without the enterprise markup
Sarah, an account executive at a SaaS startup, sends 15-20 contracts per week. With DocSend, her company would pay $540/year just for her seat — and that's before adding her manager or the legal team who occasionally need access.
With ShareDoc, she uploads contracts in seconds and knows immediately when prospects engage. Last week, she noticed a client spent 12 minutes on the liability section. Instead of a generic follow-up, she called with specific answers about their insurance concerns. Deal closed two days later.
The entire team uses one ShareDoc account. Unlimited users, unlimited contracts, $29/month. That's a 94% cost reduction with zero compromise on the features that actually matter for contract tracking.
