Why is DocuSign the best for eSignature?

How its work?

The saved signature can be used on PDFs, Word documents, and images. To finish a document, participants sign it and upload it to a cloud storage service for review. Signatures and documents are uploaded, encrypted, and a one-of-a-kind hash is generated. If a signed document is checked later, the hash will not match the information stored by DocuSign if it has been tampered with or compromised.

• DocuSign accelerates and secures any workflow or approval process, allowing you to focus on your business and life.
