SmartVault, a provider of online document management and secure client portal solutions, has announced that the company has partnered with e-signature provider RightSignature to offer a secure, easy-to-use solution for signing documents online.
The digital signature solution, powered by RightSignature, offers users the convenience of requesting signatures on documents right from SmartVault. Customers can utilize the digital signature solution for all documents, including IRS forms 8878 and 8879, which require Knowledge-Based Authentication (KBA) for compliance.
The process for requesting a digital signature is easy and intuitive. A document can be sent out to be e-signed by simply right clicking the document in the SmartVault Connected Desktop or directly from the SmartVault Portal. After the document has been signed by all parties, SmartVault automatically pulls the signed document back from RightSignature for permanent storage and retention in SmartVault.
“For the majority of our customers, time is money—and the ability to get documents signed in hours, not days, is a huge time saver for accounting professionals and businesses,” said Eric Pulaski, SmartVault founder and CEO. “Our customers rely on SmartVault to continue to bring efficiencies to their day-to-day document workflow, and we are confident that our new eSignature solution will reduce the complexities of requesting, collecting, and storing signatures on business documents by delivering a secure, paperless workflow.
SmartVault’s digital signature solution will be available to customers later this year.
