DocuSign® Unveils DocuSign Connect for Salesforce

Latest cloud computing service furthers DocuSign's leadership position in the Electronic Signature and Online Contract Execution market


SEATTLE, WA-November 13, 2008- DocuSign Inc., the #1 provider of cloud-computing software services for Electronic Signature and Online Contract Execution, announced today the release of DocuSign® Connect for Salesforce - the industry's most comprehensive and powerful sales and contract management cloud computing service available to sales professionals today. DocuSign unveiled the new service last week at the highly-attended Dreamforce '08 Conference sponsored by Salesforce.com.


Specifically designed for Salesforce.com users, DocuSign Connect for Salesforce is a suite of on-demand services that provides deep and seamless integration between DocuSign's award-winning enterprise-class electronic signature and online contract execution solution and the Salesforce platform. For organizations looking to shorten their sales cycles, close deals faster and increase revenue generation, DocuSign Connect for Salesforce provides broad functionality unavailable in any other on-demand contract execution service.


"We selected DocuSign because of their proven success in the e-Signature and contract execution market, superior enterprise service, and flexible integration with Salesforce.com," commented Ted Girdner, Senior Director of Sales Operations at Comcast Business Services. "Deep integration between these two business-critical platforms is exactly what Comcast needed to significantly improve its contract management processes."


As a part of this release, system administrators will have access to DocuSign Connect for Salesforce QuickStart -- a free AppExchange package which offers a pre-defined DocuSign Connect for Salesforce configuration that accelerates the system deployment time.


Advanced functionality delivered through DocuSign Connect for Salesforce:

  • End-to-end cloud-based contract execution built directly into your Salesforce account, including online document origination, real-time status, and management dashboard
  • Full DocuSign document sending capabilities embedded into the Salesforce system
  • Direct document form data mapping into any Salesforce object (eliminates the need to re-key information)
  • Real-time contract status updates without polling
  • Sequential signing enabling robust signing workflow with multiple internal or external signers
  • Salesforce contact integration into DocuSign's address book
  • ESIGN and UETA compliant
  • Secure transactions utilizing a cryptographic e-signature process, end-end encryption, and available with multi-factor authentication and e-vaulting
  • Powerful transaction mapping tool to allow any contract or form field to be mapped into any Salesforce object or field providing tremendous integration capabilities


"DocuSign Connect for Salesforce is a game-changer for sales representatives and management teams who want to take their sales and contract processes to the next level," says Bob DeSantis, Vice President of Sales for DocuSign. "The system is designed to eliminate the time constraints, hassle and lost opportunity of working and managing contracts between applications, and is definitely the tool to use to dramatically increase sales performance and revenue generation. We are very excited to bring this product to the marketplace."
