I didn't have too much trouble getting them on board with DocuSign, actually. At first, they hesitated a bit—mostly due to security concerns—but once I clarified how widely accepted and secure it is, they warmed up pretty quickly. Honestly though, insurers seem to cling to their outdated systems out of habit more than anything else...maybe it's a comfort zone thing? Either way, having something streamlined like DocuSign definitely beats wrestling with their ancient upload portals.
Interesting perspective—DocuSign definitely streamlines things, no doubt about it. But do you think insurers sticking with older systems might be more than just a comfort zone issue? Maybe they're hesitant because of the sheer complexity of migrating all their historical data and integrating new tech into their existing workflows. I've seen this happen before, where a seemingly simple upgrade turns into a massive headache because of legacy system compatibility issues. Also, have you noticed any pushback from insurers who prefer keeping physical copies as backup? I know digital signatures are legally binding, but some companies still seem wary about going completely paperless...just curious if you've encountered that at all.
You've raised some good points there—it's not just resistance to change. I've had insurers insist on physical copies "just in case," even though digital is technically binding. Legacy systems are a beast to overhaul, too...seen a few projects stall out completely because of that mess.
