Ascertia Docs is an online document collaboration & sign-off solution based on advanced digital signature which makes requesting online document signing simple.
Surrey, United Kingdom, April 17, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Ascertia Docs, instead of using only an image representing of your hand signature, utilizes the concept of Digital Signatures.
