About eSignR

ESignR is an electronic signature software from Glue AG designed for document signing needs. It provides features such as secure signature management, real-time status tracking, and template creation so users can efficiently manage and execute contracts. The software supports various document formats and integrates with several popular applications, making it versatile for different workflows. eSignR ensures compliance with electronic signature laws and regulations, improving trust in digital transactions. Key capabilities: document storage reporting and analytics user authentication mobile access multi-language support Best for: businesses and legal professionals that need to facilitate secure and efficient document signing processes.

esignR by Glue AG is a digital signature solution that represents a significant departure from the cloud-first model popularized by many of its competitors. Its core value proposition is **absolute data sovereignty and security**, a feature that is paramount for industries handling highly sensitive and confidential information, such as legal firms, government agencies, and financial institutions. Unlike platforms that require users to upload documents to a third-party cloud server for signing, esignR's approach is to install the software locally on the user's device. During the signing process, the document itself never leaves the local environment; only a unique cryptographic **hash value** is transmitted to the server for the signature. This innovative process provides an unparalleled level of confidentiality and control, making it a compelling alternative for companies with strict data security requirements. Beyond its security features, esignR stands out due to its adherence to the highest legal standards. The software facilitates a **Qualified Electronic Signature (QES)**, which, under both Swiss and European law, holds the same legal weight as a traditional handwritten signature.
