Benefits of Zoho Sign

Zoho Sign is actually a highly convenient and dependable solution for all businesses that have a need to handle the signing of legally binding documents and contracts online. It comes embedded with various benefits that help tremendously in streamlining the e-signature process. Some of the benefits of Zoho Sign include:

1. Customized Document Signing Process
Zoho Sign allows you to sign and send different types of documents ranging from proposals, company rules and policies, independent contracts, non-disclosure agreements, rental agreements, purchase orders, etc. With this, the application offers the tools that help in customization or tailoring the official documents sent based on different needs.

A person can create a personalized template once and save the same for reusing it in the future. In addition, the documents can also be branded with emails and company logos for incorporating the brand image. For saving time, one can send multiple documents in just one go while getting them all signed at once.

In addition, Zoho Sign also allows setting an expiry date for the documents. It sends notifications as the deadline comes near for ensuring that the confidential documents are neither overlooked nor left behind.

2. Tracking Official Documents
The implementation of an electronic signature software such as Zoho Sign helps in staying on top of documents by making sure that one has complete access, overview, and control of the official documents. To ensure that you stay completely aligned with individual or different recipients, you can also leave a note on any official document or communicate using the application’s private and group messages.

Anytime when a recipient interacts with an official document, the sender will be notified. All actions including viewing, signing, and completing the signing process will be known to a signer. Since it is very important to make sure that the document is not overlooked in any sense, notifications are also sent to the recipient as a reminder anytime when a document is required to be signed.

3. Safe and Legally Compliant Documents
The fundamental on which the digital signature tool of Zoho Sign is created is actually based on the public key cryptography that ensures security and legal compliance of digital signatures. The tool uses high security in the encryption and protection of documents because it is based on public key infrastructure.

Zoho Sign is safeguarded with AES-256 encryption and in transit; the SSL encryption also protects your files. Moreover, it comes with role-based access that helps in setting permissions and defining user roles. This offers immense control over who is granted or denied access to a document.

In essence, the authentication process is so advanced that it delivers an email straight away to the signer for guaranteeing that the right recipient or recipients have received the document. It comes with audit trails that help in monitoring the document’s signature process and changes.

4. Optimizing Signing Workflows
With the assistance of Zoho implementation partners for adopting Zoho Sign, businesses can streamline manual processes that help in saving time and errors. For example, the software is such that it lets you add multiple recipients for a document while expediting the response time.

When there is an order you need to follow in sending out documents to sign, a signing order can be set for the recipients. With the help of a document viewer, one can easily check the documents before sending them.

The process of previewing enables you to add recipients and emails. Other than this, you can also choose to print the document and then download it. Basically, the process of interacting with the documents lets you jump to a particular page and move around fields with the help of the drag and drop option.

5. Remote Collaboration
The use of Zoho Sign offers remote collaboration in the form of different features. It is possible for the sender to add either a public or a private note that elaborates on document information and cuts down on sending the documents back and forth for added clarity.

You can also set timely reminders that help in tracking the document status and sending reminders so that the signing process can expedite timely. In addition, if the sender commits a mistake in the document or sends the document to the wrong person then there is no need to worry because one can simply recall the document and cancel the signing process.

In essence, there is complete control that enables the sender to approve, deny, or decline documents just as they wish. The implementation of the Zoho Sign makes it very simple to respond however a person might need.

Conclusion
 
Zoho Sign is basically all that an organization can ever need to complete the process of paperless signing. One can sign, send and manage documents from just about anywhere and at any time they want.
