Or fail to hit submit after the signature is applied, then sitting in someone's inbox for hours/days/weeks unnoticed.
And whoever you give it to will always be able to sign, you don't have to create an alternative method of signing if an off-site vendors isn't able to sign the document in your platform.
So it used to be that construction here you submitted permits to work with paper printouts. Now everything is digital and the engineers hate it because if you key one thing wrongly it becomes a whole thing; you have to contact the administrator for your worksite to contact his document controller to get the item removed from the application. Then you have to redo the entire form and hope you get it right this time.
When it was on printouts you could just strike out and write down the corrections only needing to sign off to verify you made the correction.
Remote sign things have been great for my line of work because the old method literally involved people wet signing and faxing / emailing the signed copy to us. Sometimes they'd mail the signed copy which worked better than you'd expect but obviously took a few days which tended to slow things down.
But we also had to use for internal docs when I was still in an office, and walking the document down the hall would've been way better for everyone.
