Useful custom integrations, effortless navigation, and intuitive design
Having the courage to use Adobe Sign is crucial because it offers a wide range of benefits that may not be apparent at first glance. Once you start using it, you will appreciate its value. Therefore, it is worth taking a shot and exploring its full potential. Sometimes people tend to stick to traditional methods, such as pen and paper or other solutions for signing documents without realizing the benefits of switching to Adobe Sign. One of the impressive features is the flexibility to configure it to suit our business processes rather than forcing us to adapt to the solution. This adaptability is something that makes Adobe Sign stand out as a neat and awesome solution. I rate Adobe Sign a ten out of ten.

Simple, convenient, and allows users to automatically send reminders
I do not recall having any issues with the product. At the time, when I was building fields to be editable by the recipient, I recall having some issues. However, that was a while ago. I can't recall the exact issue. I simply recall it being slightly difficult. I'm not sure if this option was available; however, after having the form signed, I had to send it to a third party that would take the form and deals with it. There wasn't an option to have the forms, once signed, to a third party. Just the parties that had signed would get a final copy.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Adobe Sign is highly reliable and offers additional features such as 25-year retention filters and audit capabilities."
"I adore using Adobe Sign since it feels intuitive and user-friendly. Its organic design makes it effortless to navigate, so even if you lack experience with Adobe software, you can quickly learn and use it accurately."
"The most valuable aspect of Adobe Sign is not a single feature, but rather a combination of features. From a broad perspective, the failover system is particularly noteworthy. In the event that Adobe Sign experiences downtime, there are backup measures in place through Amazon AWS that ensure continuity. For instance, if one region experiences an outage, another region can take over seamlessly, which is a significant advantage."
"The ability to sign digitally is very convenient."
"I give the stability a ten out of ten."
"It makes it very easy to sign documents."
"Adobe Sign is a reliable product with good support and a continuous improvement process in place."
"Regarding the most valuable feature of the solution, I would say that it is easy to use."
"Before we had this solution, we had about 30% of customers that didn't sign agreements. Now that we have SignNow, that number has dropped to less than five percent."
"I like that it works well for my company. I will not be switching to another solution. I don't have any complaints."
"It was easy to send it around to only the relevant parties."
 

Cons

"It is hard to keep up with continuous improvements."
"One limitation of Adobe Sign is the restriction of adding only one email address for an Adobe Sign account. This can cause issues at times because Adobe Sign does not permit multiple signed accounts with the same email address."
"The support could improve in Adobe Sign."
"The solution could always be more secure."
"The price of the solution could improve for certain plans."
"The solution's UI can be made simpler and easy to use so that I can have the option to make changes if needed."
"I think that the performance could be better and so could the auto-updates when filling in new columns and information."
"It works. I have no notes for improvement."
"In the next release, I would like more protection. Security is of the highest importance for our company."
"I'm not sure if this option was available; however, after having the form signed, I had to send it to a third party that would take the form and deals with it. There wasn't an option to have the forms, once signed, to a third party."
"The area I think this solution can improve is user features."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"One area where there is room for improvement is the pricing of the entry-level plans. If you have minimal requirements for electronic signatures, the initial plans may not be suitable for SMBs as they may appear expensive. However, once you start using Adobe Sign, you can see a positive return on investment. Nonetheless, the pricing of the entry-level plans could be improved to cater to businesses with lower signing needs."
"The free edition allows us to use the signature feature."
"Adobe Sign is not expensive, but it is premium-priced based on the specific features required. The value you get from the numerous features and free unlimited support, including expert advice, is worth considering when looking for value for money. Unlike licensed components, when you purchase Adobe Sign, you're not just buying support; hence, you won't be faced with any unexpected licensing costs for additional support."
"As of now, there are no monthly expenses involved in the solution."
