"CloudSign for Microsoft Teams" is a collaborative application that allows you to seamlessly conclude a contract using CloudSign and manage already concluded contracts on Microsoft Teams.

After adjusting and confirming the contract details on Microsoft Teams, you can send the contract using cloud signature.

Background of development and provision of “CloudSign for Microsoft Teams”

The coronavirus pandemic has accelerated the work style reforms that had been underway, and one of the major changes has been the spread of remote work in companies. At the same time, the digitalization of internal infrastructure is accelerating, and the number of active users of Microsoft Teams and CloudSign, which support the continuity of business activities, continues to increase nationwide.

Additionally, there were needs from users who use both services, such as ``I want to build an efficient contract work flow'' and ``I want to store contracts on SharePoint.'' These shared goals of improving user convenience, promoting DX at Japanese companies, and expanding new customer base led us to develop and provide "CloudSign for Microsoft Teams."

Microsoft Japan Co., Ltd.
From Mr. Yoshihiro Yamazaki, General Manager, Microsoft 365 Business Division

 

We sincerely welcome the announcement of "CloudSign for Microsoft Teams," a collaboration application with Microsoft Teams. We hope that this collaborative application will enable an efficient contract workflow from application to contract conclusion and secure contract management, and will help promote the spread of electronic contracts among companies, local governments, and the country nationwide.

CloudSign is a web-based cloud contract service that replaces paper and seals with the cloud and allows contract work to be completed using just a computer. Everything is completed on the cloud, speeding up contract conclusion and reducing costs. The electronic contract function includes an electronic signature and a time stamp, which allows you to confirm "when, who, and what was contracted," ensuring legal evidence. Since the service began in 2015, the total number of contracts sent to over 140,000 companies has reached over 4 million (*Figures as of January 2021). In addition, it is the first business signature type electronic contract service in Japan that has been confirmed by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, and the Ministry of Finance as an electronic signature under the Electronic Signature Act. You can use CloudSign with confidence even in contracts, etc.

Microsoft Teams is used by more than 115 million people around the world every day to serve as a collaboration hub for teamwork in Microsoft 365. Microsoft Teams has become an indispensable collaboration tool for realizing work style reform and digital transformation for corporations through remote work and telework, regardless of time or location, because it is possible to share and edit materials at the same time, edit materials at the same time, hold online meetings, use corporate phone functions, and link with various applications. In addition, Japan customers' Microsoft Teams data is stored in Microsoft 's Japan-country datacenters by default, so organizations in highly regulated sectors such as government, municipalities, public institutions, healthcare, and education can use it with confidence.

Through this collaboration, we will not only improve the convenience of companies that have contracts for both Microsoft Teams and CloudSign, but also aim to popularize CloudSign for companies that have introduced Microsoft Teams, government offices, local governments, etc. I'm coming.
