E-Signature allows SmartSimple clients to send, sign, and collect signatures on electronic documents stored or generated in the system. Signees sign and authorize documents virtually, and the signature information is captured and stored digitally without pens, paper, faxing, or scanning. E-Signature is also called esignature, online signature, and electronic signature. SmartSimple offers four E-Signature options: Adobe Sign, DocuSign, Signority, and SignEasy.
