What differentiates DocuSign from other similar products?

Docusign is more than a software for collecting electronic signatures. It is used by several departments within my organization as a web form for collecting informations, as an enabler for quote to cash processes within the sales department, and so on. This multi-use case nature of Docusign stands it out from close alternatives, I think.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

I am impressed with the security provisions on Docusign which ensures the safety and authenticity of data shared through the platform . In this case, Docusigns threat detection and signer ID verification protocols clearly come to mind. More personally, the seamless and straightforward process of collecting and signing documents through Docusign really appeals to me.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Docusign mobile app. can and should be better. I have had multiple experiences with minor glitches on the app. which forces me to signout and then sign-in back into the app. On other occasions, I have to tap on an option multiple times before it responds.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

For all processes that involve inputting signatures digitally, I think Docusign should get strong consideration.
