Adobe Sign provides secure, comprehensive e-signature collection and automation from anywhere, including Adobe Acrobat and Microsoft Office.
Benefits
Adobe Sign makes it easy for individuals or departments to build, send, and track forms for digital signatures. Efficiently and securely send documents for signature without requiring recipients to print and scan. And because Adobe Sign is integrated with your existing BU login, you won’t need to create and track external accounts.
Key Features
- Invite signers to complete documents via through email, even if they don’t have an Adobe ID
- Request signatures from multiple recipients, in any order, a specific order, or a combination of both
- Designate recipients as signers or approvers
- Create and share document templates with your team
- Record a transaction audit trail for each document
What to Expect

Requirements
- Adobe Sign requires a web browser for signature collection and management. Supported browsers can be found on Adobe’s System Requirements page.
- Integration with Adobe Acrobat requires Acrobat DC to be installed on your computer or mobile device. Requirements for Acrobat DC can be found on Adobe’s Acrobat System Requirements page.
- A separate Acrobat Pro DC or Creative Cloud license is required to install Acrobat on your device.
Cost
Adobe Sign usage is measured by the number of transactions made per year, per unit.
In most cases, there is no charge for using Adobe Sign. However, units exceeding 500 annual transactions may be assessed a fee at the end of the fiscal year.
