For a while now, Zoho Sign has been an exceptional application, but it was missing two major key features that would make it a top contender for the best eSignature solution out there. The Zoho Sign team was not disappointed to kick off 2024 with back-to-back major updates.

- Dynamic Knowledge-Based Authentication: In partnership with IDology, Zoho Sign has introduced a real-time verification feature for signatories in the US. This feature enhances security by using dynamic questions based on public data, accessible only to the intended recipient.
These recent updates have set a new benchmark, positioning it as a leading eSignature solution in the market.
