This new integration enables users to sign, send and manage documents directly from Google Docs – saving time by conveniently starting a DocuSign workîow directly from the Google Docs editor, or from Docs' recent documents. This includes the automatic saving of signed documents to Google Drive, as well as Gmail integration for sending them – one of the most requested features.  \nOn the real estate front, most homebuyers and agents índ the paper-based home ínancing and closing process cumbersome and lengthy. That's why DocuSign created its new eNotary feature, so senders can request electronic  \n1   \nnotarial acts and Notaries can host in-person signing sessions.  \nReleased for early access in the DocuSign Winter '17 Release in December and generally available this month in the DocuSign Spring '17 Release, the new eNotary feature eliminates the need to print, scan or mail closing documents. All actions can be performed within the DocuSign platform, including applying a seal and exporting a notary log. These in-person eNotarizations can be performed via DocuSign in Idaho, Indiana, Florida, Kentucky, New Jersey, New York and Washington (in addition to North Carolina, which has been available since 2014) .  \nFor Japan, the adoption of eSignature has been inîuenced by the fact that signers are accustomed to using a Hanko stamp to represent their signature on paper documents. That's why DocuSign is launching the personal eHanko in the DocuSign Spring '17 Release, in partnership with Shachihata Inc.– a leading company in Japan's traditional hanko culture. It complements the basic eHanko functionality launched in December last year. And according to DocuSign Japan's vice president, Hayato Koeda, Japanese businesses and consumers will see tremendous beneít.  \n\"The advantages of digitization are more widely recognized today in Japan. However, traditional Japanese business customs including the process of aïxing a seal remain, resulting in the persistent use of paper, which acts as a bottleneck to improving work eïciency,\" he explained.  \n\"By collaborating with Shachihata, we are providing a solution that makes it easier for Japanese companies to improve operational eïciency, compliance measures and customer experience. In Europe and the United States, many progressive companies have already undertaken the move towards digitization. With this solution, Japanese companies can also achieve digital transformation with completely paperless business operations.\"  \nIn addition to the above, DocuSign users around the world will beneít from other enhancements in the DocuSign Spring '17 Release, including:  \n DocuSign Payments: on the heels of US availability in February this year, DocuSign Payments will be enabled for customers in the UK, Canada and Australia this month, oìering support ","cbCaiojgsfgAr8Xw","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiojgsfgAr8Xw","pdf",151266,"English","# DocuSign Spring '17 Release Highlights\n## Google Docs add-on and workflow integration\n## eNotary in the real estate process\n## Personal eHanko for Japan and partnership context\n## Additional platform enhancements","[{\"question\":\"What major product updates are included in DocuSign’s Spring '17 Release?\",\"answer\":\"The Spring '17 Release enhances DocuSign’s eSignature solution and DTM platform with Google Docs integration, eNotary availability, personal eHanko in Japan, and added capabilities like DocuSign Payments and multiple usability upgrades.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the new DocuSign for Google Docs add-on work?\",\"answer\":\"It lets users sign, send, and manage documents directly from Google Docs, including starting a DocuSign workflow from the editor or Docs’ recent documents, with automatic saving to Google Drive and Gmail integration for sending.\"},{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of the eNotary feature and where is it available?\",\"answer\":\"eNotary supports electronic notarial acts and in-person signing sessions, removing the need to print, scan, or mail closing documents; it is available in listed US states including Idaho, Indiana, Florida, Kentucky, New Jersey, New York, and Washington.\"}]","DocuSign Bolsters Functionality with Spring '17 Release - News Release | PDF",1789143099]
