Streamlining Agreement Processes: The Power of DocuSign Web Forms

  • Blogs

3 min read

In a world dominated by paperwork, the transition to digital tools was expected to streamline processes and eliminate the woes of traditional form-filling methods. However, the reality is far from ideal, with over 75% of users abandoning forms prematurely due to poor user experiences. Complicated designs, security concerns, and the inability to seamlessly integrate information into internal systems are major culprits. This not only leads to incomplete data for organizations but also puts their customers at the risk of a frustrating experience.

The Risks of Traditional Form-Filling

Traditional ink-and-paper methods, and even some digital solutions, often fail to keep users engaged. Complex designs and the need for sensitive information contribute to user concerns about security, leading to an alarming 30% abandonment rate. This not only leaves organizations with incomplete data but also risks the loss of potential customers.

Beyond user experience, managing form data at the backend is another challenge. Data-entry errors and security risks arise when information isn’t automatically saved or integrated across internal systems. The scattered nature of data makes it challenging for organizations to analyze and act upon it efficiently.

The Solution: DocuSign Web Forms

DocuSign Web Forms, a revolutionary solution within the DocuSign eSignature suite that aims to reshape how organizations approach form-filling and data management. This no-code solution is designed to empower employees to create interactive forms on demand without the need for intricate IT involvement.

  • Dynamic Forms for Dynamic Experiences

Web Forms in DocuSign eSignature provides a user-friendly, no-code platform for creating dynamic forms that seamlessly populate content into agreements for signature. The interactive UI allows creators to implement conditional logic, changing form fields based on user responses, ensuring that users see only what’s relevant to them.

  • Swift Agreement Completion

Web Forms accelerates agreement completion by providing customers with self-service access to forms through shareable links. The mobile-friendly interface guides users through the process, minimizing premature form abandonment. The application of conditional rules ensures that users only encounter questions relevant to them, enhancing the overall form-filling experience.

This feature empowers employees to become form creators in minutes, freeing up valuable internal resources.
