Google Forms™ allows you to easily create forms and collect responses from your users. But it doesn’t offer a native electronic signature feature. With Formesign's signature addon, you can add legally binding electronic signatures to your Google Forms™. This add-on simplifies the process of obtaining signatures in intake forms, employee onboarding forms, consent forms, waivers, and other forms that are a recurring part of your operations. ❇️ Features ➤ Create your signature form in minutes with Formesign's setup wizard ➤ Get legally binding signatures in Google Forms™ ➤ Automatically save signed response as PDF in your Google Drive™ ➤ Rename synced files using any field from the form ➤ Email signed documents to form respondents as well as your team ➤ View and manage responses in Google Forms™ or sync to Google Sheets™ for easy analysis ➤ Conveniently sign forms on any device including mobiles and tablets ❇️ Why Formesign? ➤ Legally binding signatures Formesign ensures that signatures collected through Google Forms™ are legally binding, enabling you to run compliant signing workflows for intake, employee onboarding, consent forms, and more. ➤ SOC 2 Type II certified Formesign is SOC 2 Type II certified, meeting the security and compliance standards required by enterprises and regulated industries. ➤ Google Workspace™ integration Automatically sync signed documents to Google Drive™ and form responses to Google Sheets™, keeping your data organized within the tools your team already uses. ➤ Easy to use Formesign simplifies the process of collecting signatures, making it easy to set up once and collect signatures repeatedly without the need for complex software or third-party services. ➤ Saves time and money For teams collecting signatures on a recurring basis, Formesign eliminates the need for printing, scanning, and mailing documents. Signed documents are automatically stored and accessible, reducing administrative overhead over time. ❇️ Use cases Employee onboarding forms: HR teams can collect signed acknowledgments for employee handbooks, company policies, and codes of conduct as part of a standardized onboarding process. Waivers and consent forms: Fitness centers, recreation facilities, and event organizers can collect signed waivers and consent forms from participants on an ongoing basis. Field service forms: Teams in construction, maintenance, and facilities management can collect signatures on inspection reports, job completion forms, and safety checklists. Incident report forms: Workplaces, schools, and facilities teams can collect signatures on incident reports used to record workplace accidents, injuries, near misses, and unsafe conditions. Membership applications: Associations, clubs, and professional organizations can collect electronically signed membership agreements, codes of conduct, or other required documents during the application process. ▌How to add a signature Open your form in Google Forms™ > click the addon icon > click Formesign > click Add eSignature > the setup wizard will appear > follow the prompts to complete the setup. Share the Formesign link with your respondents instead of the standard Google Forms™ link to collect responses. ▌Multiple signatures When you use the Add eSignature option in the Formesign addon menu, you can add multiple signature fields to a single form. This is useful when signatures are needed from more than one person before the form is submitted. For example, collecting signatures from both the person reporting an incident and a witness, or from a minor and their parent or guardian on a travel consent form. For use cases requiring a sequential signing workflow where one person signs and submits before the form is routed to another party for review and countersignature, please refer to our Formesign - Signature workflow addon below. https://workspace.google.com/marketplace/app/formesign_signature_+_workflow/496255709512 ❇️ Pricing Formesign's eSignature addon is a paid product with a 7-day trial. The pricing starts at $18 per month. For details, refer to the pricing page. https://formesign.com/esign/pricing.html
