We are very proud to announce that our partner and customer, BT (British Telecom), has launched BT eSignature, a whitelabelled version of EchoSign to its 1,600,000 customers in the U.K. and Europe -- and worldwide. BT is a global powerhouse: BT's revenue exceeded US $40 billion in 2006 with over $2 billion in pre-tax profit. BT is the most forward thinking, and services-focused, global telecommunications leader.
BT has provided a great case study of its own use of BT eSignature/EchoSign:
"BT eSignature has dramatically improved our internal business and customer satisfaction. Using BT eSignature in-house means that all our contracts can now be instantly signed, tracked and filed, while customers are still on the phone with a personal BT representative, making our business work in real-time".
Bill Murphy, Managing Director, BT Business"
More here to follow, and on BT's blog as well:
"If like me you've had to go through the time consuming and painful process of getting a contract signed, then BT eSignature a web-based electronic signature service, could help solve that problem for you ...
To provide this service we've teamed up with EchoSign and hence the service fully complies with the U.K. Electronic Signatures Act (Public Law No: 106-229) that went into effect on October 1, 2000, as well as the U.S. E-SIGN Act of 2000. So electronic contracts now carry the same weight as those executed on paper.
So, if you want to find out more or trial the service for free, then visit our BT eSignature site."
I feel this will increase reach and usage of electronic signatures. All the Best
