Benefits of a Paperless Office
There are many benefits to going paperless in the workplace. Not only does not using paper save space and money, it’s also better for the environment. Adopting digital document software and e-signature solutions is also essential to remaining competitive in the modern workplace.
Another benefit is increased productivity and easier collaboration among team members. Having all your documents accessible on a digital platform means teams can work together from anywhere. Businesses that adopt digital solutions, like e-signature software, can improve efficiency by up to 80%. Many digital management tools also offer mobile app access and cloud storage integrations, allowing you and your team to work easier on the go. Adopting an e-signature solution can also cut scanning errors by 92% and reduce missing documents and files by 66%, so your documents are safer and less prone to damage and loss because of human error.
Can I Sign a Digital Document?
Of course! E-signature solutions, like Smallpdf eSign, offer many features to help you manage your legal documents digitally. eSign offers electronic and digital signatures that are safe, secure, verifiable, and legally binding. Legal laws vary across countries and legal bodies, so be sure to check in with your local laws or with a legal professional if you’re ever unsure.
When looking for an e-signature solution, security is essential to keep in mind. All of Smallpdf’s tools, including eSign, are ISO/IEC 27001 certified and GDPR and eIDAS compliant. eSign also offers timeline and activity tracking, as well as timestamping for total control of the signing process.
