Overall Satisfaction with Legalesign
Legalesign is our organization's method of sending and receiving signed contracts with employees, clients and sales prospects. It is utilized by our HR department, sales team and account managers.
This is a helpful tool for uploading customized documents to be signed by multiple parties. Legalesign provides a secure opportunity for our organization to send important documents via email and have them easily signed and returned. They can also be stored within Legalesign.
As our Recruitment Coordinator, I use Legalesign to send official offer letters and employment agreements to new employees. This allows me to upload document templates and send them easily to candidates via email. I am also able to have multiple signers in the same document. New employees do not have to print, sign, then rescan documents, but simply e-sign.

- Legalesign is very easy to use - uploading documents is simple. You just click where you want the signature box to go and can add the signer's information. Adding multiple signatures is also quite easy.
- Once documents are sent, you receive live updates when the recipient opens docs, reviews, signs, etc. This is helpful when they are time sensitive.
- Documents are stored within the system and can be accessed/downloaded at a later time.
- I appreciate the simplicity of the design - it's not overly flashy, like other platforms.
- Archives - after a certain amount of time, documents are archived. It's difficult to determine when this happens. If you need to access an archived item, Legalesign says it will take 'several hours' to retrieve the document. I've waited up to 12 hours for a document to be pulled. This is inconveniently and a bit odd.
- The dashboard can be confusing - there is a timeline with your 'recent' documents, but I've never been able to determine how it shows documents. They're always out of order and some new, some old. It can be confusing.
- Overall, I've had issues with the internal timeline of this software. There are dropdown menus for choosing the dates of the documents you want to see (7 days, 30 days, last month, etc.), but I'm often missing documents and have to perform several searches for them. Other members of the team have had this issue, as well.
- Like the archive issue mentioned previously, there have been times when the platform has moved very slowly. Documents will often take time to load, even if they're just a 2-page Word document. This does not appear to be a connectivity issue.
- The dashboard itself can just be a bit confusing. There is a lot of information available, but the algorithm that determines what is displayed is strange, and it's hard to determine what you're seeing/why you're seeing it. There are settings you can play with, which has been helpful.
- Although it hasn't happened often, I have had candidates/new employees not recognize an email coming via Legalesign. Document emails look a bit like spam, so I've had candidates ignore them. As far as I know, these are not customizable. I ensure recipients know the email is coming.
- Legalesign has had a positive impact on our ability to sign new employees. It's fast and easy - which is essential when hiring top talent.
- The only negative impact would be the slow pace we've experienced when trying to pull previous documents. However, we do not use this platform as our only storage option, so this issue does not arise often.
- Legalesign allows for the seamless transfer of information with prospects, which has a large impact on our ROI. Having a system like this makes getting signatures from new clients quick - essentially for a busy sales team!
Legalesign is our preferred method of signing/sending documents. It's easy to use and saves a lot of headaches when it comes to getting signatures on contracts/offer letters/documents. Additionally, we've found it to be cheaper than other similar platforms, even for multiple licenses. There are certainly areas for improvement (archive efficiency, dashboard set up, etc.), but we do not foresee our organization moving away from Legalesign any time soon.
