Iron Mountain was founded over 70 years ago, serving as a strategic partner in storage and information management. It's trusted by over 225,000 organisations worldwide, including 90% of the Fortune 1000.
It needed a digital signing functionality and ultimately chose to use Ascertia's SigningHub. This case study explores this decision.
Iron Mountain Cyprus partners with M-Files to provide advanced document management solutions, enhancing its ability to offer clients efficient, secure and compliant document handling and storage services.
Iron Mountain’s customers expressed the need for both M-Files users, as well as those who do not have direct access to M-Files, to be able to digitally sign documents. This add-on feature would ensure all users - regardless of their access level to the M-Files system - can participate in secure and legally binding electronic signing processes.
Following a SigningHub solution presentation by JCC Payment Systems, a QTSP based in Cyprus, Iron Mountain decided to integrate with SigningHub. It chose Ascertia’s signing solution as leveraging its APIs was extremely easy and the solution met all the customers’ requirements, including:
By leveraging SigningHub APIs, companies and organisations using the M-Files system could now initiate workflows via JCC SigningHub and request Qualified or Simple eSignatures in under one minute. The signatories are informed via customisable emails via the company’s JCC SigningHub enterprise account, and they can sign documents with a single click.
The company can also receive a workflow evidence report from JCC SigningHub, providing a detailed audit trail of the entire workflow - from beginning to completion. Extra layers of authentication can be added using a passcode or email/SMS one-time password for signatories to access and sign the required document. Every workflow can be monitored according to its progress, and reminders can be automatically sent if a signatory delays the process completion.
The whole process can be handled by M-Files automatically, and it ensures that signatures cannot be altered and cover any legal requirements.
Iron Mountain’s customers have experienced immediate benefits that have digitally transformed their signing processes. They have found that SigningHub is a seamless and efficient way to request and receive electronic signatures.
New signature cases appear daily, creating a wide range of use cases that companies can adopt across various industries and sectors. The most common use cases include:
This integration with JCC SigningHub enables many companies in Cyprus to enjoy the benefits of a smooth and hassle-free signing experience.
