Adobe Acrobat Sign is a cloud service that facilitates electronic signatures and approval workflows. It allows users to send documents for signatures, track the status of each required signature, and manage agreements electronically. This can replace the process of physically signing paper and send through physcial mail as well as sending PDFs for signatures by individual emails.
