DocuSign eSignature

DocuSign eSignature allows staff to electronically send and collect signatures on documents that need to be signed by one or several people.

You do not need a DocuSign licence to sign documents sent to you through DocuSign.

You may find that the following options will suit your needs, particularly for internal signatures such as expenses. Please consider using these as they are alternatives to DocuSign that everyone can use:

  • ABBYY FineReader - a PDF editing tool which can be used to add signatures to PDFs where a workflow of the approvals is not required. This is available for managed Windows devices only and can be downloaded from the Software Center.
  • Google Docs - documents can be safely shared and managed and version history ensures clarity on who has edited (or signed) which section.
