Getting Signatures from Others

Docsvault's Signature Requests feature is an easy to use web-based electronic signature solution for any business that needs to collect signatures from customers and other business associates. This feature helps you to get online signatures from anyone outside the organization, i.e. non-Docsvault user, without leaving your Docsvault repository. Authorized Docsvault users can get signatures for contracts, agreements, or any documents from right within Docsvault – No printing, faxing or mail delivery required.

 

Signers are emailed signature request links automatically and can quickly sign documents from anywhere and on any device using a simple web browser. They do not need to sign up or purchase Docsvault to sign documents. Signatures can be requested for multiple documents and from multiple signers in a sequence.

 

Once the signature process is completed, both the request sender and signers receive a confirmation email and can download the signed documents. The sender can track the entire signing progress in Docsvault from My Workspace > Public Links > Signature Requests node.
