Electronic signature solutions are still in the “early market” being used by 3-5% of all organizations. However, we at Sertifi are experienced a 300% growth rate in 2011 which could bring esignature usage to 15% of all organizations by the end of 2012. If you are still interested in esignatures here are some of the benefits you will experience:
- Close Business Faster- Signing documents electronically saves time. Saved time means deals get closed more quickly. An electronic signature solution is a simple alternative to the old-fashioned procedure of printing, signing, scanning, and faxing or mailing, which can eat up valuable time that could be better spent on more productive activities.
- Security-Signing an electronic document requires signer authentication, which reduces the risk of forgery and assures the validity of electronically-signed documents.
- Reduced office overhead costs- Electronic signatures eliminate the need for paper and a hardcopy filing system, which significantly reduces office costs in terms of supplies and employee hours spent handling documents

February 1st 2012 – There are so many applications for electronic signatures and it continually amazes us how many documents are actually being signed everyday. We recently began working with one of the largest home builder in the country and did a release on on their application. Electronic signature application seem to be growing every month as the fax machine seems to be on its way out. Release is here : Sertifi Electronic Signature Software
How does a company avoid having to hire two additional full-time employees to process waivers? For one national home builder, the answer was electronic signature software. This national builder needed a streamlined method for getting subcontractors to sign lien waivers. In November, they began using an electronic signature solution by Sertifi ( www.sertifi.com ) .“We wanted to assure subcontractors that there was a third party handling this,” a representative for the builder said. “We wanted there to be no accusations of someone having signed someone else’s documents on their behalf.”
Laws differ among states, and Sertifi provided one form waiver that met requirements in every state this builder provides services. The software enabled the company to get 2,000 waivers signed via electronic signatures in the first three weeks. The company had no system in place prior to using the esignature solutions software. Representatives just knew a process was needed. “When you see it all come together and it all works, you feel like you just landed on the moon,” the representative said. The next step is an automated process where once waivers are signed, checks are cut, rather than staff manually cutting checks.
“It’s a great system,” the representative said. “You’re talking about software that basically has saved us two full-time people thanks to automation.”
