What are the benefits of electronic signatures?
Legally binding and secure
Electronic signatures are legal and enforceable in nearly every industrialized country. They're often more secure than handwritten signatures as paper can pass through multiple hands during the signing process, and you don't know who may have seen your document.Cost-effective
With electronic signatures, employees can use their valuable time more efficiently by making processes more streamlined. No more having to find a printer to print and mail documents! You'll also save costs on paper, ink envelopes and postage.Environmentally responsible
Electronic signatures can help you operate more sustainably and reduce your environmental footprint—less paper, supplies and the need for physical archiving space.Efficient
Paper kills workplace efficiency—especially when signing is involved. eSignatures promote faster document sharing and approval, creating measurable time savings.Customer loyalty
