We use signnow for setting up contracts with our independent contractors.

It's easy to set up templates so you can send out the same kind of contracts over and over again. The email updates when contracts are completed are also handy.

Fantastic service

Jonathon

Always had great experiences and this has saved my neck many times in the past. It's also super easy for older, non-tech people.

This is an imperative service for me and has been a lifesaver on more than one occasion. It is very simple to use and I've been able to get very important documents signed by my bosses. I trust the level of safety as well and have no issue using it for sensitive/legal documents. I especially like how it can tab each area in a document to make it incredibly simple.
