DocuSign eSignature lets organizations send, sign, and manage agreements electronically from any device. Senders prepare documents by adding fields and routing rules, and recipients sign through a responsive web or mobile experience without needing a DocuSign account. The platform supports a wide range of file types (PDF, Word, Excel, plain text and others), automatic field tagging, reusable templates, bulk send, and conditional and calculated fields.
Every completed agreement carries a tamper-evident PKI seal and a full audit trail, with a certificate of completion recording each recipient action. Administrators get real-time status tracking, configurable reports, user and access controls, single sign-on, and a range of signer authentication options including access codes, SMS one-time passcodes, phone authentication, knowledge-based authentication, and government-ID verification. Electronic signatures created with the service are designed to be legally valid under the U.S. ESIGN Act, the EU's eIDAS regulation, and comparable laws in many other jurisdictions.
DocuSign integrates with more than 1,000 business applications, including pre-built connectors and endorsed integrations for major ERP and business platforms such as SAP, Oracle NetSuite, Microsoft, Salesforce, and Workday. It is delivered as a cloud service with agreement data stored in one of five regional data centers (U.S., Canada, Europe, Australia, or Japan), and it maintains a broad set of security and compliance certifications.
