RightSignature, which integrates with Citrix ShareFile, provides a simple way to get documents signed electronically, helping customers to digitize documents, automate processes and go paperless.

RightSignature was founded in 2009, an has ever since had a vision to change the way the world does business. Now, almost six years later, professionals, small businesses, and enterprises – in almost every industry, across five continents – use RightSignature to get documents filled out and signed online, easily, quickly, and securely.

Building on the popularity of the joint ShareFile and RightSignature solution released last year, the acquisition enables Citrix to extend its ShareFile product line to include e-signature. With RightSignature, Citrix continues to add services that allow customers to work better together from anywhere by enabling a critical part of the document workflow in the many industries that require signatures such as accounting, financial services, healthcare and insurance.

Our team shares the same vision and culture as Citrix, making Citrix the perfect home as we accelerate RightSignature’s growth.”
