Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: Docusign at 831K against Scantivia's 3. Docusign also leads on chart position (#32 vs unranked). Scantivia's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for Docusign against 5.0 for Scantivia. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Docusign has 831K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two.
