Introducing Digital Signature
Our goal is to streamline the workflow efficiency in ABOSS by integrating a seamless e-sign process, complete with a comprehensive Signing Log. This log serves as an audit trail or legal proof of a document's validity after it has been signed.
Since digital signatures are not our core business, we decided to partner with a third-party solution instead of developing an in-house one. After a thorough exploration of potential platforms, we found SignRequest to be the ideal partner, meeting our security requirements and functionality criteria.
Additionally, by choosing a third-party integration that provides a reliable signing log, there are costs associated with every request made through this integration.
Pricing
Depending on your plan size, you can send a certain number of digital signature requests per month for free, and any additional requests after that will be charged.
