I thought this would be to costly per mo. for my use. When I went to cancel I was offered a 75% discount to stay for another yr. That will certainly give me time to see its use.

I was able to upload and edit a document. I sent it to someone across the country who printed, signed it and sent it back. I then e-signed it and submitted it to a third party successfully.
