7 Common mistakes to avoid while choosing e-Signature software

by Mahender Bist CEO

With so many different vendors, features, and systems to choose from, finding the best electronic signature software in the market can be quite overwhelming. Thankfully, we have identified 7 common mistakes which organizations make, when shopping for e-sign solutions – so you will know how to avoid them.

1. Choosing an e-signature solution that isn’t user-friendly

Never confuse simple with under-powered—yes, electronic signature software should be easy to use. Any e-sign software should guarantee a quick and intuitive signing process for the users. Two or three mouse clicks should be all that is required to execute an e-signature. Additionally, your e-sign solution should offer multi-language support to cater to clients from different backgrounds

2. Choosing e-signatures that don’t integrate with the existing applications

When you buy an e-sign solution that doesn’t integrate well your existing applications, you are unlikely to enjoy the full benefits of automation. Advisably, go for a solution that can integrate flawlessly with common office applications, such as Salesforce, Google Drive, DropBox, Microsoft OneDrive, and other document management systems.

3. Ignoring free trials

Do you buy a new car based solely on its aesthetics? Good looks and features don’t necessarily translate to a perfect e-signing system. And what works for other organizations might not work with yours. Therefore, never ignore those e-sign vendors that offer free trials to their customers. Just do a trial to find out if the software matches your organization needs.
