Businesses are going paperless in most of their operations given the myriad benefits – increased efficiency, cost reduction, and improved customer satisfaction. Electronic signature is one of the ways of going digital as it reduces paperwork and makes the approval process seamless and quicker. DocuSign is the top choice for electronic signatures.
Further, integrating DocuSign with Microsoft Dynamics 365 CRM using Power Automate can work wonders for the business. Let’s learn about each of them individually first.
DocuSign is a secure electronic signature solution that allows users to sign, send, and manage documents from any location, using any device. This eliminates the need for printing, faxing, or mailing paper documents, resulting in reduced time and costs associated with traditional paper-based processes. By leveraging DocuSign, businesses can streamline their document signing process, making it faster and more efficient. Microsoft Dynamics 365 CRM, a Microsoft module for managing customer relationships, is an excellent tool for businesses to further enhance their document signing process by integrating it with DocuSign. Going digital can significantly reduce paperwork and time for clients.
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Customer Relationship Management (CRM) software helps businesses manage, track, and store customer data on a centralized server for easy access by remote teams. Integrated CRM solutions are essential for businesses to optimize and automate operations and avoid losing sales leads and customer relationships. The software gathers information on existing and potential customers, including purchase histories and support tickets, and shares it with appropriate teams through integration with other business tools such as online chat and document-sharing apps. Microsoft Dynamics 365 CRM has AI and business intelligence capabilities for actionable insights and faster administrative tasks, providing sales, marketing, commerce, field service, and customer service teams instant visibility and access to essential elements for customer relationship management.
Power Automate is a cloud-based service by Microsoft. It enables its users to build automated workflows across multiple applications & services. It allows users to automate repetitive tasks, such as document signing, without requiring any specific coding knowledge.
