These days, there are endless ways to take advantage of the vast capabilities the internet offers. One of the more interesting uses that organizations are adopting is external-facing web portals, which provide a secured area over the internet where internal employees and external partners, collaborators, clients, etc. can connect and manage documentation and other information.
A case study on Duke Realty’s use of digital signatures highlights how one of the largest owners, managers and developers of commercial real estate in the United States enhanced their web portal with digital signatures to increase collaboration and employee satisfaction. By doing so, they eliminated the need to print and route documents solely for the purpose of obtaining approvals (as well as the delays this process typically incurs), and enabled internal and external employees 
and collaborators to quickly, easily and securely sign off on documents online. Can you imagine how thrilled external collaborators were with the new capability to submit forms like payment applications so easily?
