Adoption Is On The Rise As The Customer Experience Takes Off

• Now customers want e-signatures.

• Modernization, mobility, and demographics are pushing e-signature adoption.

• Compliance can have a positive impact on paper-based processes.

• Technology increases the speed of order and cash flow.

• Overlapping regulatory guidelines.

• Documents with a downstream afterlife.

• Underestimating complexity.

• Confusion about the tools to use.

But Barriers Remain


What We Found

• Clearly visible efficiencies

• Improved customer experience — but still work to do. –Today, the e-signing "ceremony" often involves loading or

manipulating a document, entering PINs, or dealing with more advanced techniques for authentication.

–Over time the ceremony will get easier. Signing security may require only a key or a token — using global position systems (GPS), IP address, and other artifacts not used today transparently extracted from the process.

• Despite headcount and customer experience benefits, some industries still resist efficiencies.


What We Found

•Embedded solutions work really well for many needs.

–The majority of e-signature solutions referenced start with a document set produced from a core system or packaged app.

•The e-signature market will focus more on process and less on signing.

•Control, governance, and ROI grows with an enterprise approach.

Why is this so important?

Tron, 1982

“Now that’s a big door.” – Kevin Flynn

Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, 1971

“Strike that. Reverse it.” – Willy Wonka

Proprietary solutions and signatures are

OK.

MYTH

Signature images with a link back

to the vendor are safe.

MYTH

The right stress test is to assume your SaaS or on-premises vendor disappears and see

what you have to take to court.

The Forrester Wave: E-Signatures, Q2 2013

Let’s ask

Considering deploying e-signatures?

Don’t let myth get in the way

of the truth.
