The expanded global strategic partnership offers new DocuSign
Agreement Cloud integrations and capabilities across Microsoft's
business solutions.
SAN
FRANCISCO, June 7, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- DocuSign
(NASDAQ: DOCU) today announced an expansion of its global strategic
partnership with Microsoft to accelerate how people collaborate and
come to agreement in the anywhere economy.
It has become increasingly evident that every company, from
global enterprises to SMBs, need to fully digitally transform to
stay competitive and relevant. To help achieve this transformation,
DocuSign and Microsoft are providing new integrations and
capabilities that enhance their joint customers' ability to
prepare, sign and manage agreements in the cloud, from practically
anywhere.
"Microsoft is critical to our vision of streamlining the
agreement process for our customers, wherever they get work done.
With so much of the world getting work done in Microsoft's
applications and cloud services, we are thrilled to be deepening
our relationship with Microsoft to jointly deliver on the promise
of the anywhere economy," said Dan
Springer, CEO, DocuSign.
"Our collaboration with DocuSign enhances our ability to help
our customers bring the agreement processes directly into the flow
of work," said Judson Althoff, EVP
& Chief Commercial Officer, Microsoft. "Together we will reduce
the complexity of collaborating on agreements, drive efficiency and
productivity, and make anywhere work more possible."
This strategic partnership helps joint customers further achieve
'anywhere' collaboration and builds on Microsoft's relationship as
a DocuSign customer and partner. It also deepens existing
integrations across Microsoft 365, Dynamics 365, and Power
Platform applications to further automate contract processes.
Innovations include:
- DocuSign eSignature for Microsoft Teams: Today, this
integration allows employees to get real-time notifications on
agreements out for signature directly in Teams, enabling a more
efficient and connected experience. Moving forward, Microsoft and
DocuSign will work to deepen this integration to deliver additional
end-user scenarios, including live signing in a Teams meeting.
- DocuSign eSignature for Microsoft 365: The existing
solution enables organizations to securely send, sign, and track
documents directly from SharePoint, Outlook and Word. Later this
year, DocuSign plans to release an improved user interface,
built-in dashboards, and automatic synchronization of data between
SharePoint and eSignature envelopes.
- DocuSign CLM for Microsoft Word: This plugin allows
users to access a legal clause library and an AI-powered risk
scorecard from within Word. Later this year, interoperability of
Word and CLM comments will be added to align the negotiation
process between the two systems.
- DocuSign eSignature for Power Platform: Today, the
solutions allow organizations to build automated signature
workflows using the Microsoft Power Platform, including pre-built
templates in Power Automate.
- DocuSign eSignature for Microsoft Dynamics 365: This
integration helps sales teams close deals faster and provides sales
leaders greater visibility into signing-process status.
User-interface enhancements to further increase sales rep
productivity are also being developed.
This agreement reinforces DocuSign Agreement Cloud as a
Preferred Solution on Microsoft AppSource, representing a
commitment to quality, performance and the ability to meet the
needs of mutual customers.
As part of the agreement, Microsoft and DocuSign will also
expand the use of each other's products within their own
organizations. Microsoft will adopt DocuSign's products and
services, including DocuSign eSignature and CLM, to streamline
select e-signature and contract management workflows. DocuSign is
planning to implement Power Platform to automate a wide variety of
business processes such as payroll processing, payables management
and employee experience, and will expand its use of Microsoft Azure
beyond Canada and Australia into other geographies.
