We live in a world where digital processes have largely replaced paper-based activities. When was the last time you wrote a check? Or went to a bank to deposit or cash one? Yet there are many documents that require signatures. The search for solutions to support legally binding electronic signature approvals often leads to expensive, bulky options that provide a disjointed document-filing experience.
