FAQ

Can I use both iContract and DocuSign?

Absolutely! Some users generate contracts with iContract and then use DocuSign for signatures, especially if their clients expect DocuSign's brand. However, iContract's built-in signatures eliminate this need for most use cases.

Which is more legally valid?

Both can support valid electronic-signature workflows, but legal effect depends on the document, transaction, and applicable law. Neither method by itself guarantees enforceability.
