JioSign- Free Digital Signing platform

JioSign is the latest digital Signing platform developed by Jio Platforms. It has been designed keeping in mind the requirement of every department and every business. Currently available digital signing applications in the markets can be pretty confusing to people who are not in technology. Especially for small and medium-sized businesses, a complete contract management suite might not be the right choice. Contract management solutions do cover what is expected of an E-Signing application. Still, they also tend to cover unnecessary features, which can be costly and complicated for most SMB companies. JioSign has been designed to cater to the complete needs of all small and medium businesses. Enterprise customers can also use JioSign. The powerful APIs allow JioSign to be integrated with nearly all the CRMs, ERPs, and other software used by Enterprises making it a go-to solution for them.

What is an E-Signature?

According to the U.S. Federal ESign Act, an electronic signature is characterized as an “Electronic sound, symbol, or process, attached to or logically associated with a contract or other record and executed or adopted by a person with the intent to sign the record.”

Multiple platforms provide services to sign a document electronically or digitally. These platforms use different technologies to create legally binding secure E-Signatures permissible in most courts worldwide.

Benefits of Using JioSign

JioSign- Most convenient E-Sign application

JioSign removes all the inefficiency and challenges faced while using the Wet signature to sign a document. Here we have listed some of the major benefits of using JioSign to accelerate your business.

Customer Experience:

Most small and medium businesses still use the archaic practice of sending documents and contracts for customer signing using emails. This practice causes a lot of hassle for the customer as he needs to take the printout, sign the document, scan it, and then attach it to the email to send it back. The time taken is more, and the chances of error in signing the document also increase when this method is used. Instead, using JioSign makes it much easier for the customer to sign the document, and it also drastically reduces the turnaround time. Hence, helping you close more sales deals and improving your sales cycle.

In JioSign, the customer only receives a link through an email or SMS. Once he clicks on the link, he can easily view the document and sign it digitally within a few clicks using his mobile phone or laptop. JioSign also provides an opportunity to sign multiple documents using bulk sign, making it easier for the customer and saving time.

Faster Turnaround time:

Using JioSign, you can send a contract to multiple recipients with one click of your mouse. It is much faster than printing the document, sending it through the post, and waiting for days to receive it. The recipient also needs to spend less time reviewing the document and signing it. Also, the convenience of signing the document using JioSign means a faster reply from the recipient. The signers do not need to be present and can sign the document anywhere, saving time traveling.

Also, the sender can easily track which document is still pending and send a reminder to the signer using the application itself.

Legal issues:

E-signatures done using JioSign are defensible in court. E-Signature is as legal as any wet signature and is admissible in court. JioSign also provides a facility to its user to use a DSC token. For people who are not aware of the DSC token, it is a password-protected device (generally a USB stick) used to establish the signer’s identity. This feature of JioSign makes it the go-to digital signing solution for companies belonging to all verticals and sizes.

Improved visibility:

JioSign has a comprehensive reporting view. JioSign Dashboard helps you quickly understand each document’s progress. The reporting views also allow the users to take actions from the view itself. For example, you can easily see the list of the documents waiting for you to sign and then select all the documents to bulk sign.

Secure data storage:

Once a document is E-signed using JioSign, it can be kept in the application for future reference, which is extremely useful for Small and medium businesses who do not want to spend hundreds of dollars buying cloud storage just to store signed documents. The ability to store the documents means no unauthorized users can view or alter them. So even in case of a disaster, your documents are kept safe and secure in the data center. In addition to that, it also allows you to access the document from anywhere, anytime you want.

Integrations:

JioSign allows you to integrate with CRM, ERP, or any other software your organizations use.

For example, Sales executives can use the contact list from the CRM directly to send a customer contract or document for signing. Hence, significantly increasing work productivity. Also, once the document is received, it gets logged in the CRM, giving an ability to map the complete user lifecycle from within the CRM.

Using JioSign, you can completely automate generating and sending documents to different parties. You can also create workflows and automate the signing process.

Using JioSign for signing helps reduce these errors and hence helps save cost. JioSign also saves money on maintaining the archive and managing old contracts; this expense is also reduced by storing the contracts and documents in digital form.
