Advanced management and seamless integration improve document workflows
The IAM tool they are providing is good, but there should be flexibility in terms of importing IAM or AI generation reviews into the normal workflows while generating documents and creating templates. DocuSign still needs to offer more built-in integration tools such as the Coupa connector. They already have many integrations, such as Google Docs and Google Drive, but some major ones are still in the pipeline. Scalability, in terms of the workflow structure and maintenance, needs improvement. If the workflow becomes heavy, the system slows down, requiring consultation with the team to get the workflow load relieved. System availability should see fewer crashes or server errors.

A stable solution that provides businesses the ability to create and secure documents whenever needed
The administrative user interface used to create users and track templates and envelopes for our product is outdated. Now we're on the AssureSign side and not the Nintex side, so I don't know if they are different products. If Nintex AssureSign is one product, then they have given it an outdated feel and look. If I had more experience with other similar programs, like DocuSign, that I used years ago, I might have been able to give more concrete or better feedback on what additional features are to be included in the tool.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"You can customize how you want to use the solution."
"The solution is reasonably priced."
"DocuSign is currently able to cater to almost 95% of user needs in terms of contractual documents, propagation, storage, signature process, and additional requirements."
"I appreciate that I can see when they've viewed the document, when they've signed the document, and the status of the document, which is probably my favorite feature in DocuSign."
"Very convenient, saves dealing with hard copies of documents."
"What I have found to be the most valuable aspect of this solution is the fact that I don't have to go out and meet the other party in person. I can just take care of what I need to online."
"This speeds up the sign-off process."
"The most valuable feature of DocuSign is its ability to save time."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"I rate the technical support a ten out of ten because they really help us."
 

Cons

"DocuSign's mobile application could be better. It has some compatibility issues."
"I would like for this solution to send me a copy of the signed document automatically."
"It should automatically be datestamped beside the signature."
"Resolution from customer service and their response rate in resolving issues needs to be improved."
"There are sometimes delays in user communication."
"Moving the boxes around can be a bit annoying, so the AI element in the UI should be significantly improved to make the process smoother."
"Some people are not that computer-literate, and people don't understand the concept of the digital signature."
"The support is not accessible sometimes to African businesses."
"Currently, merge mapping can only be done within a specific object. If we want to do a merge mapping for related objects, we need to create a lot of automation."
"The solution's initial setup process was a bit complex…The administrative user interface used to create users and track templates and envelopes for our product is outdated."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool is expensive."
"AssureSign offers comfortable prices that are more affordable for clients. This is why many clients are attracted to AssureSign, as it is a cost-effective tool."
