Electronic Forms at Kent State University

Kent State's DocuSign Migration 

In order to better manage costs and enable wider use of electronic signature and ‘paperless’ processes, the Division of Information Technology (DoIT) is replacing the current electronic signature tool, DocuSign, with two new platforms, Adobe Acrobat Sign and Next Gen's Dynamic Forms. DocuSign will no longer be Kent State's electronic signature tool starting the month of June 2023.

Adobe Acrobat Sign / Dynamic Forms

Adobe Acrobat Sign provides comparable (or improved) e-signature functionality to DocuSign at a fraction of the cost, while Dynamic Forms provides an additional cost-effective resource to convert paper-based forms to interactive, electronic forms and approval workflows. 

Departments can request access to, get assistance with, or report an issue with either Adobe Acrobat Sign or Dynamic Forms by opening a Help Desk Ticket under Electronic Signature Capturing queue in Fresh (https://kentstate.freshservice.com/support/).

Departments can also register for upcoming Training sessions, offered starting end of April, through this site:  https://training.kent.edu/courses.php
