Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: HelloSign at 100% against PandaDoc's 40%. HelloSign also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.2). PandaDoc's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 8 days vs every 17 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
