Zoho Sign integration for Outlook

Zoho Sign integration for Outlook

Zoho Sign now integrates with Microsoft Outlook, offering an add-in that allows users to sign documents or set up e-sign workflows to collect signatures and approvals on paperwork directly from their inbox. This add-in enables users to add their email attachments to Zoho Sign, and quickly sign them or send them out for signatures to create legally binding business documents. 

This add-in can be added to your Outlook mailbox from Microsoft AppSource, and accessed by users by toggling the collapsible add-in side pane when viewing email. Once added, the add-in is available for use inside the Outlook app across all supported platforms—web, iOS, iPad OS, and Android.
