The benefits of electronic signature software
"Wet ink" or the process of printing, signing and scanning documents is time-consuming and can create unnecessary delays in business workflows.
An e-signature, sometimes spelled e-signature and short for electronic signature, is defined as any electronic means that shows a person agrees to and accepts the contents of an electronic message. It can also refer to the “signature” of a digital message made by the person who wrote it. E-signatures can be as simple as a typed named or a written signature on technology that can digitize that signature.
Because e-signatures provide people with the ability to sign electronic documents from anywhere at any time, as long as they are provided with the technology to do so, they have grown in both popularity and use.
