Adobe Partners with Workday, Integrates EchoSign

 Adobe has announced a partnership with Workday to integrate Adobe EchoSign e-signature capabilities into Workday HCM, an end-to-end cloud system that enables organizations to make faster decisions and gain operational visibility. This integration will help modernize HR tasks and provide Workday customers with the security of e-signatures.

Adobe EchoSign enables HR organizations to make key functions paperless. Adobe EchoSign allows teams to close 64 percent of external offers within 24 hours and 15 percent within an hour.

“Speed and security are paramount when selecting an e-signature provider to modernize the age-old hiring and onboarding process of sign, send and wait,” said Kevin M. Lynch, senior vice president and general manager of document services at Adobe. “The integration of Adobe EchoSign will give Workday customers the competitive advantage to present prospects with professional and secure digital documents, built seamlessly into HR systems, to deliver results quickly and efficiently.”

“Adobe shares Workday’s vision of simplifying and streamlining the employee experience,” said Mike Frandsen, senior vice president of products at Workday. “The integration of EchoSign into Workday HCM furthers the ability of our customers to offer their prospects a simple and efficient onboarding and hiring experience, which is important in today’s competitive talent market. We are excited to take this first step in our relationship with Adobe and look forward to continued collaboration with them, as both a partner and customer.”

The integration is expected to go live during the second half of 2015.
