Used for digital signatures and contract management. Used extensively with Sharepoint integration. Implemented to eliminate paper work replication issues, eliminate physical paperwork, as well as to streamline digitization of office records.
  • Ease of use
  • Quick to deploy
  • Integration with MS 365
  • Integration can be easier
  • Admin console has myriad ways of logging in, creates different “orgs” based on SSO and Adobe ID
  • Support is not good
Good for mid size to enterprise level business

The use cases that are presented within the organization are: Signing of documents that could not be done physically during the pandemic. The signing of official documents required a valid digital signature with certificate. Finally, as part of the initiatives that are in support of the environment, the responsible use of resources such as the sheets that are printed is sought, for which this type of services is used to minimize the ecological impact.
  • Easy to use
  • Very practical
  • Very intuitive
  • Licensing tied to Creative Cloud
  • Some support topics
  • Response times in signature configuration
Scenarios where digital signatures generated by Adobe are perfectly accepted for internal or official documents. When looking to substantially reduce the consumption of sheets and savings on printing issues. In these scenarios Adobe Sign works very well. When digital signatures where legal proof is required and it is not accepted by those generated by Adobe, it is not a good service to integrate. Additionally, this service does not work very well administratively in medium or large organizations where the volume of users is so high and there are no user group integrations with services such as Azure AD, AWS or any account system that does not support SAML.

We use Adobe Acrobat Sign as an easy way to get signatures when on the road. It is simple to use as its intuitive with its mobile app. It allows me to sign or have others sign agreements without having to wait until I am in front of a computer which can be tricky on days I am going from meeting to meeting.
  • Mobile signing - clear display for small screens
  • Simple document setup - easy to tap and add signature fields
  • Easy monitoring of agreements
  • Counter offers - I would like fields that if amended by another person, it would make all users initial the change
Perfect for most agreements on the go which may already have terms agreed, and just needs to put pen to paper. Would be great if it also had a good workflow for counteroffers when negotiating in writing. Overall the app is reliable to trustworthy with Adobe Acrobat Sign being one of the best names in the documentation.

We are a 100% remote company, so we use Adobe Acrobat Sign for any paperwork (NDAs, SOWs, MCAs, etc.) we need to be signed internally or externally. We use Adobe Acrobat Sign fairly regularly, and it makes every contract and agreement signature process smooth and seamless. I would encourage everyone to use Adobe Acrobat Sign.
  • Notifies all parties when sent for signature
  • Sends a final signed copy to all parties
  • Autofills fields
  • Difficult to figure out how to delete files
Adobe Acrobat Sign is perfect for everything I use it constantly.

As a mortgage professional we often times require customers e-sign documents that are not a part of our traditional loan packages therefore our own systems cannot send them out. With so many consumers not having scanners or even printers at home Adobe Acrobat Sign allows me to send letters for signature using our phones for an easy and seamless process. It cuts down so much lag time waiting for somebody to print and sign something by hand when most consumers are always close to their phones and don't have to bother with printing, signing and scanning.
  • Easy to use
  • Secure
  • Digital signature is approved for lenders & realtors/escrow offices
  • Identifies where to sign
  • Cost could be lowered/should be lowered given some of the competitors
  • Maybe instead of a monthly fee, just do a one time fee since it's not always used?
Adobe Acrobat Sign does exactly what its intentions are so there's absolutely nothing wrong with it. It's best suited for professionals who require more than just a digital signature, but rather a secure and verified digital signature that is often needed in real estate, law, and most professional settings. It's too easy to manipulate a standard signature using traditional pdf forms but with Adobe Acrobat Sign, similar to DocuSign you have an actual digital signature that is accepted. Probably best not suited for somebody that only does one or two signature requests a month due to the cost associated with the monthly or annual plans. Also not suited for anybody who doesn't have access to a smartphone or doesn't know how to use a smartphone well.

In our organization, Adobe Acrobat Sign is used to gather signatures on important documents efficiently with very less turnaround time along with a more secure manner with great industry-standard security for data protection. Once the client signs the document the status is updated as accepted automatically which reduces manual effort.
  • Integration with other applications is very easy.
  • Highest security backed by Adobe's industry standard compliance.
  • Reduces the turnaround time as there is no need to send physical documents.
  • Initial setup requires a lot of time, only meant for larger teams which have integrated Adobe applications.
  • UI can be updated to look a little bit modern.
  • Pricing is on the higher side for the subscription.
Documents can be signed digitally with the top-of-the-line industry standards and secured by Abode, without having to print sign, and then upload which reduces the efforts in the whole process. Moreover, the status automatically updates to Accepted once the signatures are captured which makes it even more efficient.

whenever we have a document that needs a digital signature, we use this validated and trusted platform. The days of faxing and getting a signature and then faxing it back and then couriering the original are long done with. Just compose the doc, process it and forward the doc for signature and store
  • send and send on behalf
  • standard for PDF
  • easy for end users to use
  • the initial set was hard, Adobe wiped our config and we had to start from scratch
  • the support is off shore so the language barrier was a huge issue
This is the defacto trusted platform for electronic signatures, everyone knows what a pdf is and can easily adapt it

I use Adobe Acrobat Sign both in personal and professional environments. I started using it as a student to fill out forms and documents needed for administrative transactions and formal requests in my institution. In the professional field, it helps to make any exchange of important documents safer, faster, and smoother. With it, the need for multiple different tools is not necessary anymore.
  • The option of saving multiple signatures and data for autofill allows personalizing the use.
  • The process of creating the digital signature is simple and good.
  • It's really easy to jump from Adobe Acrobat Sign to sign or fill documents and send them again without hassle.
  • The mobile version lacks functionality.
  • The synchronization with the adobe cloud can fail or take a while to update.
  • I'd like to be able to change the view of the interface in the mobile version to see recent documents.
Everyone has to sign documents from time to time, not only at work. With Adobe Acrobat Sign it's way easier to fill or sign anything, even outside the office or on the way (with the mobile app). It's perfect to make sure all documents have the same signature, saves time because it can autofill information, and it works perfectly for remote work with colleagues when a single document has to be edited by multiple people in a very short time.

I use it to sign documents quickly and efficiently. When I am on the go out of the office is when it is the most helpful, as I can pull it up on my iPad and sign away. It will then email me the "receipt" so that I can keep track of what I've signed. I also like that I can save signatures to my account, making it even more simple to use.
  • Save signatures
  • Email notifications to track signed documents
  • Seamless UI on the mobile app
  • Cost is a little higher than other competitive platforms
When I am on the go (client meetings, on-site, work from home, traveling, etc.) it makes it simple to get documents signed and tracked. Sitting in the office it is just as efficient and makes things faster thus saving time, but it isn't as required.

Adobe Acrobat Sign is a suite of Adobe family and it is used by individuals to sign pdf files online. We found out about this tool about 2 years ago: as during the Covid period everybody worked at home remotely there was no possibility to sign manually the document. So we introduced a new way of the approval process. Instead of printing documents and putting signatures, we learned to use Adobe to transform documents into pdf, and then with Sign, we exchange these files by email for an electronic signature
  • Electronic signature functionality
  • reviews of signatures
  • keep log / audit of signatures
  • Edit document PDF is not easy
I think that the electronic signature process should be implemented in all companies, the manual signature on the printed documents is the past. In this scenario, Adobe Sign is one of the best tools.

On a daily basis, this device is relied upon to facilitate the swift and accurate signing of legal papers. As a result of COVID-19, the business environment and the way we do things have shifted. Sending documents back and forth to be signed in ink is a time-consuming and expensive practice that has seen better days. And then there's the whole question of getting those documents notarized. Adobe Acrobat Sign allows us to skip through unnecessary formalities.
  • With Adobe Acrobat Sign, you can monitor who has seen your documents and when.
  • When one signer completes their part of a document, Adobe Acrobat Sign notifies the next signer that their part is complete and sends the document to them.
  • In addition to sending confirmation emails, Adobe Acrobat Sign also sends out emails with updates on the status of your transaction.
  • The autofill function frequently makes mistakes, necessitating manual deletion and replacement with the right information.
  • Once you add boxes to a document, you can't go back and change who was included in the distribution.
  • You won't be able to drop the file in until you first choose the appropriate checkbox at the very bottom.
Adobe Acrobat Sign is useful for electronic signatures on papers that don't need physical ones. The same holds true for digitally notarized papers. Businesses who often carry out Purchase Orders, Contracts, and the like will find this quite helpful. If your document requires a physical notary's signature or seal, you cannot use Acrobat Adobe Sign.

Adobe Sign is being used by our contracts and legal department. The business problem it addresses is digitally routing contracts, forms for our authorized signers, clients, and vendors rather than sending/ signing paper copies. It also will send reminders for contracts that are outstanding/unsigned. We encourage all of our clients to use digital signing to expedite the contract signing process so we can get to work without having to wait for contracts to send through the mail or potentially get lost on someone's desk.
  • Some of its features on saving text/autofill for the contract fields are helpful.
  • The price point is reasonable for a company of our size.
  • Works well for its main function - digitally routing contracts and keeping them secure.
  • Search - their recent update has dumbed down the search capability of contracts. They need to take a note from Google or Apple on how they treat search. Instead, to get accurate results, one is forced to limit to the exactly unique identifiers of each contract.
  • When setting up a contract to be routed, you are presented with an email-like interface. Once you click to the next screen, you are not allowed to make changes to the initial screen or go back. This is more of an annoyance, but we have several abandoned contracts sitting on our account because we missed something on the initial screen and had to start over. For example, say I set it up to route to one signer first, then the other... but later I want to change it to either signer can sign first. I can't make that change with out starting completely over.
  • Being able to organize the different contracts beyond just their status's would help immensely with search. IE: if I want to search for my California contracts, unless there is "CA" in the title or something, I will not be likely to find it. If I could organize them in folders from the beginning, this would alleviate the next to type text in the search box. I'd just look in the folder.
Well suited for digitally routing signatures for contracts. Delegation and selecting signers works as expected. Checking status of signer, when they have viewed, opened, or signed a contract works well. Some signers experience trouble signing for one reason or another- could be related to browser or some other conflict. In those cases, I advise them to print, sign and scan & Adobe Sign allows you to upload the fully signed contract. Will allow you to manually set reminders or have them automatically send weekly or daily. Not the best suited for organizing contracts & searching could be improved as previously mentioned.

This product is used every day to ensure documents are executed in a timely and efficient manner. COVID-19 has changed the landscape in business and how we operate. Signing document via ink is really behind us in many ways and takes too much time and money to courier documents back and forth. Not to mention the issue of notarizing said documents. Adobe Acrobat Sign helps us avoid the extra nonsense.
  • Makes signing a document easy
  • Makes verifying signatures easy
  • Makes notarizing documents digitally easy
  • The format of the signatures
  • How the stamps appear
  • Different signature formats available
  • Multi-Signature packages
Adobe Acrobat Sign is great for documents that don't require ink signatures. This includes documents that can be digitally notarized. This is wonderful for businesses that execute many contracts, Purchase Orders, etcetera. Acrobat Adobe Sign is not valid for anything that needs ink signatures or needs to be notarized in person with an ink and seal stamp.

Adobe Acrobat Sign is an easy-to-use, single-function application. You can simply sign your documents by uploading your signature and dragging it to the placeholder position. They have not complicated the UI which helps even first-time users to use it with ease.
  • Adobe Acrobat Sign helps me send documents across without taking an offline copy and signing them.
  • You can easily automate reminders.
  • It is easy to switch between users.
  • It is quite expensive as compared to its functionality.
  • You can sign with ease, but editing the document hence is very difficult.
Adobe Acrobat Sign helps to transfer documents across without taking an offline copy and signing them. It saves the hassle of scanning and uploading docs again and again. It helps me with document storage purposes - I store my signed files on the hard drive and avoid paper waste.

I use Adobe Sign for new hire paperwork, tax documents, and contracts (both hires and client-related contracts). Especially now that we are operating remotely, it allows us to stay legally compliant.
  • Tracks when everything is signed and by who.
  • Makes it easy to switch who is supposed to sign after a document has gone out.
  • Makes it easy to automate reminders.
  • You cannot go back and edit recipients once you have added boxes to the document.
  • The autofill feature is often wrong, so you have to go through and delete them before adding in the correct boxes.
  • If you forget to select one specific checkbox at the bottom before dropping the file in, you can't add it.
Adobe Sign is well suited if you ever need someone to fill out paperwork and they don't have printer access. It's also well suited if you need to trace timestamps/signatures.

I use this to review, validate, and track various documents for the organization.
  • Adobe Sign is good for creating a good signature for important documents.
  • Sign allows me to keep track of my documents.
  • Adobe Acrobat Sign is great for allowing others to review my material without compromising the quality of legality.
  • The ability to edit documents is not quite intuitive- sometimes I have to "hunt" for certain buttons.
  • Sometimes the documents have a difficult time displaying the correct fonts.
  • Documents do not translate well into other formats (i.e. a PDF to a word document.
Adobe Acrobat Sign is great for legal and regulatory documents, contracts, and checklists. Not as useful for graphic layouts or brochures.

During Covid, we used Adobe Acrobat Sign to send family law documents to clients who did not wish to come into our office. We were even able to send documents that had to be notarized during the time period that Georgia allowed remote notarization. We were also able to track the progress of the signing. This is helpful when the documents are sent to an opposing party. We can tell if they viewed the documents and then did not sign.
  • Adobe Acrobat Sign tracks whether or not a signer has viewed a document
  • Adobe Acrobat Sign tracks when a signer has signed, and the document has been sent to the next signer
  • Adobe Acrobat Sign sends you confirmation emails and progress update emails along the way
  • Adobe Acrobat Sign provides a "confirmation of signing" page at the end of the document package you put together, to prove the signatures are authentic
  • There is a button that will auto add signature fields for you, but it can be finicky and put the signature fields in the wrong place, or not create a signature field at all where one is actually needed
  • Because Adobe does add a layer of protection to their documents, the documents have to be printed to PDF or printed and scanned in before we can e-file with the Court, so this is a double edged sword. It would be nice if the protection was still there and the document was sill in a format the the Courts would accept when e-filing
  • More assistance with auto-sizing the signature fields and other data fields in order to ensure they are legible would be nice
Adobe Acrobat Sign has been a great tool during Covid. We have been able to provide remote services to our clients. It's been especially convenient for clients that live far away from our office. Remote notarization has since ended in Georgia, so that creates a problem for documents that need to be signed AND notarized, but we are still able to utilize Adobe Acrobat Sign for documents that just need a signature.

I use this product for HR documents that need to be sent and signed electronically. It's much easier than printing a document and then trying to track down an employee to sign it and then having to scan it so that it is in an electronic format that can be sent.
  • Ease of use

  • Electronic signatures
  • I'm very happy with the functionality of the product!
We have used this to sign legal documents quickly and more efficiently than the old method of sending documents via regular mail. An example of this would be our 401(k) document plans. It's quick and easy to use and provides a time stamp along with the signature.

In my firm, we have several use cases. When the pandemic started, we began doing the majority of our consultations and client intake online, so we started to have clients sign their representation agreements with Adobe Acrobat Sign. It was the natural choice because our agreement is a PDF form that only permits certain information to be filled in, which is what we use Adobe Acrobat for. We also use Adobe Acrobat Sign to gather signatures on agreed orders when all counsel and parties aren't present as well as to gather signatures for mediated settlement agreements when the mediation is performed remotely via Zoom or other video conferencing software.
  • Integrates with Adobe Acrobat
  • Simple to navigate and use even for inexperienced users.
  • Branding integration is simple and functional.
  • I've noticed if I am sent a link to sign through Adobe Acrobat Sign and I have several Acrobat windows open (especially if there is a prior sign window still open) the program freezes when it tries to open the new signature link (my firm uses Macs, so not sure how or if that is related to the glitch).
  • I have had times when one of the parties in the email string sent to gather signatures either encountered issues or are unable to sign and the integrated help menus don't seem to be sufficient to walk a novice through the process.
Adobe Acrobat Sign has been great for collecting verifiable legal signatures on documents for my firm. If you already use Adobe Acrobat then it is far easier to get the hang of using Adobe Acrobat Sign than it would be DocuSign or other software. Also, if you already use Adobe Acrobat, it is far more cost-effective to use Adobe Acrobat Sign, at least for our firm. When we added the cost to the Acrobat DC Pro we already used it was cheaper than adding DocuSign, though I am not sure if we received any type of special pricing for already maintaining several Acrobat DC Pro licenses. For the legal industry, I think the advanced security and verification of Adobe Acrobat Sign, when compared to the e-signature function of Acrobat DC, makes it worth the added cost.

I use Adobe Acrobat Sign to sign documents, and send documents to be signed by other managers. It makes signing documents simple!
  • Easy to gather signatures/add signers
  • Easy to sign yourself
  • Provides feedback when document is signed
  • When sending to more than one person at a time, I wish it notified the other person when the first person signed.
It is well suited for remote companies that need to have documents approved and signed in a matter of minutes. It's maybe not ideal for multiple signatories.

Adobe Sign is user-friendly in terms of getting documents electronically signed by clients, especially during times when in-person signing is not easy. Clients usually reply in a reasonable time as well.
  • Connection with Salesforce - users can stay in Salesforce to view and manage documents
  • Signature tags are too long and not as easy as DocuSign
Adobe Sign is very good when sending "easy" documents for clients to sign. However, it is always difficult to use when combining it with Conga. Also, Adobe Sign does not seem to recognize the IF Statement very well. The signature tags are too long plus, sometimes it blocks the words and removes the lines.

We use Adobe Sign to get purchase signatures on a few of our services. We also use it internally from time to time to onboard affiliate partners, etc. We use the template feature quite often and the clone feature helps tremendously for some forms that require repeat information. We’re pleased with the service and we’ve recommended it to several business acquaintances.
  • The ease of use on the customer’s end is particularly good. Frankly, that’s the most important part.
  • The ability to clone fields is extremely helpful and it’s a feature not available on some other platforms. I checked.
  • The process of sending is also very easy and fast.
  • The template feature works well, and it’s invaluable.
  • The sign-in process to our account could use some refining. [In my experience,] it can be difficult to find the right place to log in from the main Adobe site. I solved this issue by creating a bookmark. I’m guessing this issue happens because the software was originally part of another company.
  • It’s been a while since I tried, but [I feel that] using the app on an iPad can be frustrating when it comes to resizing the entry fields. Still, it’s good to have the mobile option.
Adobe Sign works great when you need to have a client sign a document remotely and, with the iPad app, it works pretty [well] to sign in a person as well. What it’s really fantastic for are those documents that need filling out and signing consistently. It’s easy to set up a template to reuse time after time. It really saves many valuable hours.

We use AdobeSign to gather signatures from clients on documents that need to be HIPAA compliant. We also use it to sign contracts with vendors. We introduced AdobeSign to centralize our e-signing solutions and because of the potential integrations with the Microsoft suite. We have not used the integrations with Teams as much as we had hoped, but AdobeSign has consolidated all of our e-signing into one platform which is easier to administrate.
  • The template feature is useful and we save a lot of time with it.
  • The admin portal is relatively easy to use.
  • The integration with the rest of the Adobe Suite is a nightmare. We frequently have staff trying to sign an Adobe document opened through Acrobat, and when that doesn't work as expected they get frustrated/confused. This is the biggest pain point of AdobeSign and is a significant hassle.
  • The integrations with Microsoft Teams have issues for some employees, which is a bummer but not a huge issue.
AdobeSign is a good e-signature solution. The confusion between AdobeSign and AdobeAcrobat is unfortunate and creates a layer of unnecessary wrinkles. Being able to add users at no cost and paying per signature makes sense for medium- to large organizations. Smaller organizations with only a few individuals who will be collecting signatures might be better off using a cheaper platform that pays by the user rather than by envelope.
