Dropbox Sign caps Essentials at 5 templates. Once your saved templates fill those five slots, you’re deleting old ones to make room for new ones — or upgrading to a plan that raises the cap.

A template is a document with its fields and recipient roles already set up, ready to reuse without rebuilding it each time — a lease, an NDA, an offer letter, a standard statement of work. The whole point of a template is not re-doing that setup work on every send.
Dropbox Sign caps Essentials at 5 templates. That’s a small number for any business that reuses more than a handful of documents — a landlord with a lease and a few addenda, a freelancer with contract variants by project type, an agency onboarding different client types with different paperwork. Once the five slots are full, saving a sixth template means deleting one of the existing five first.

Five templates covers a business with exactly one kind of paperwork. Add a second document type — say a lease plus a pet addendum, or an NDA plus a contractor agreement — and you’re already juggling which templates to keep live and which to delete and recreate later.
Raising the limit means upgrading to Dropbox Sign’s team tier, which enforces a 2-seat minimum (~$600/year) on its team tier. So lifting a template cap that has nothing to do with team size still means paying for a seat you may not need.
Every Evenseal plan, including the free tier, includes unlimited reusable templates with no cap to plan around and no seat purchase required to raise it.
Evenseal’s Unlimited plan is $19/month or $190/year — unlimited templates, documents, and recipients, no watermark, and no seat fees, ever.
