From real estate to legal, businesses that rely on Box also rely on eSignly to get work done faster and more securely.
Challenge: Accelerating Lease Agreements
A fast-growing real estate firm was struggling with a slow, manual process for lease agreements. Agents stored drafts in Box, but then had to download, print, get signatures, scan, and re-upload them, leading to delays and version control issues.
Our Solution

- Created a standardized lease agreement template in eSignly with pre-set fields for tenants and landlords.
- Configured automated workflows to save completed leases into specific client folders within Box, tagged as 'Executed'.

A corporate legal team used Box as their central repository for sensitive case files. They needed a secure way to get client engagement letters, NDAs, and affidavits signed without the documents ever leaving their controlled environment.
Our Solution

Our Solution
- Equipped the sales team with eSignly templates for different contract types, accessible via Box.
- Integrated eSignly with their CRM, allowing reps to trigger a signing request from the CRM, which pulled the correct contract from Box.
