Featured Reviews

Timpa D Angaye - PeerSpot reviewer
Reduces paper, makes collecting signatures easy and offers helpful workflow capabilities
Resolution from customer service and their response rate in resolving issues needs to be improved. When a ticket is raised, customer service actually contacts you for resolution. The issue is that they hardly resolve anything for you. They rather refer you to their FAQ or other links with tutorials. This could be frustrating as you may expect technical assistance, however, what you get is a link to a tutorial that usually may not solve the issue that has been raised. Their technical support team should engage more with customers when tickets are raised.
Murali Sunkara - PeerSpot reviewer
A solution that is fairly easy to use owing to its good UI and support provided to its users
The solution is fairly easy to use since there are no complexities. Also, it has a good user interface, and even its support is good. For any documents, I just need to log in to Zoho to see some of the items I want. So, the way it maintains track of the history of documents, for instance, last year, if I had signed on ten documents and this year I had signed on three or four documents, are all made available to me. Hence, I don't need to worry about what I did about a year ago since I can go back and look at it on Zoho.

"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."
"I like that there is a hierarchy in sending the documentation."
"It works very well, and its pricing is also good."
"The most valuable features of Zoho Sign are its integration and invoice facilities."

Cons

"DocuSign's mobile application could be better. It has some compatibility issues."
"I could always use better security around the solution."
"The support is not accessible sometimes to African businesses."

"Some people are not that computer-literate, and people don't understand the concept of the digital signature."
"I would like for this solution to send me a copy of the signed document automatically."
"Because not everyone uses it, it's difficult to get it adopted. When you send someone something and it's a DocuSign, they go, "Okay, this is legit." When you use any of the other ones, people are like, "Oh! What is this?" I don't know if that's a branding issue or something else."
"They send the contract out with default templates, and we need to be able to adjust the templates as we would like."
"Zoho Sign has to be made more user friendly."
"The solution limits the number of contracts one can sign."
"I think that it would be a good improvement if one could chat with Zoho or DocuSign...In short, the tool cannot currently let me communicate or talk with it via chat."

"Zoho Sign is expensive compared to other software and charges AED 120 per user for a month."
