digital signing solution for documents for approval
Hi,
I am looking for a product to digitally sign documents.
- documents would be in PDF format and then sent to user to approve, they would sign the document to indicate they approve it and then would email it to the next party that needs to review the same document and they would sign it or "sign off" on it and the document would be complete.
- ideally the document could be shared to the user for them to review and sign so that the owner knows it has been approved before sharing it to another dept/user for further approval or completion.
What kind of product would you recommend for this type of workflow? PDFs are currently used but there is not digital signature in place yet.
Has anyone used "DocuSign Business Pro Edition" ?
Thanks,

Digital signatures and electronic signatures: what's the difference?

I haven't used the Business Pro edition, but I was going to recommend DocuSign as a possible solution. You've probably seen this page that shows the differences among the three editions:
https://www.docusign.com/products-and-pricing
Be sure to click on MORE FEATURES to see the full list of Business Pro features. A huge difference is that the Personal edition is limited to sending five docs per month for signature (Standard and Business Pro remove that limitation).
Paul has already mentioned Adobe, so I won't go there, but another possibility is Nuance's Power PDF. Both the Standard and Advanced editions support signing PDFs. But it is not cloud-based, so you'd be signing locally. Here's what the Security ribbon looks like in Power PDF Advanced (Version 2.0, which is the latest):
Power PDF Advanced has some other nice features, including Bates stamping/numbering.
