Overall Satisfaction with Adobe Acrobat Sign

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
  • no cost for printing
  • no time anymore to knocking door and ask for a signature
  • no cost for ship document to outside offices
Adobe Sign is very simple to use and it is userfriendly for most of my colleagues. So, at the moment I don't yet call or contact the ServiceDesk for help or any type of support.
Adobe Sign is very easy to install and work on my computer. Also from tablets or Ipad, we don't meet any issues. You can easily open the pdf files, set the destinations, and send for signatures. You get immediate feedback about signatures or missing ones.
As described at the beginning, the introduction of smart work and the lockdown for Covid open us the opportunity to find a new/smart/cheaper/secure way to sign the document. All the financial documents or the contracts or purchase orders are now managed electronically and which means increased productivity and efficiency.

Do you think Adobe Acrobat Sign delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Adobe Acrobat Sign's feature set?

Yes

Did Adobe Acrobat Sign live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Adobe Acrobat Sign go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Adobe Acrobat Sign again?

Yes

We are using both DocuSign and Adobe Sign. Both solutions are very valid for our scope, the replacement of manual process with electronic workflow. I think that if you must choose between DocuSign and Adobe Sign you have to look at the price (every month it changes or there is a new offer ) at your time and for additional features that your Company could be needed
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.

Adobe Sign Experience

I can confirm that Adobe Acrobat Sign help our organization to simplify the workflow of signature for internal document and for purchase offer. It help also to reduce cost because all documents are now digitally and no more request the print out. Other factor is reduce cost if you need ship document by ppt
At the moment Adobe Acrobat Sign is not integrated with our internal tools (for example SAP or Sales Forces) because our initial goal was an alternative way for signature of document.
Of course we will work with our IT department in order to optimize new workflow and probably we will integrate it with third tools
Adobe Acrobat Sign is very easy and user-friendly tool that help with few steps to replace old workflow of signature with new one electronic
Again, this tool help us to reduce the print out of document, help to save time for no asking manual signature to people, help to reduce cost because no stamp are more required to ship document for remote user.
Everything is now electronic for our signature workflow
