Paperwork is difficult: from preparing templates, formats, and the actual writing, to sending documents to multiple recipients, the process can be tiresome. It is doubly cumbersome if the documents require signatures.
Physical signature collection creates a long document turnaround duration, an unsafe exchange of sensitive information, and unverifiable signatures that are hard to trace and authorize. With Zoho Sign for Zoho Writer, you can customize and automate most of the documentation and signing process with a few clicks. You can experience the ease of paperless signing while automating your documentation.
Are digital signatures safe on an online word processor?
Signatures have always been typically used as a means of establishing traceability of identity and for validating written documents. Physical signatures are clearly outdated, unsafe, time consuming, and risky when working with editable as well as bulk documents. However, a digital signature is a secure and faster alternative to the traditional signing method.
Digital signatures operate using cryptographic techniques to protect a document from tampering as well as to establish the identity of the signer. They use digital signature certificates obtained from certifying authorities to "sign" a document and are legally valid across the globe. Learn more.
Digital signatures are faster, simpler, and more secure, on top of being an eco-friendly option when it comes to signing within an online word processor. Zoho Writer has built-in Zoho Sign features that can be used to elevate and quicken your documentation process. Try it for free now!
