Impression offers deep experience as a locally created & leading Digital Identity solutions provider covering a broad area of technology – making it an ideal match for GlobalSign.

- Engage – An omnichannel engagement platform that allows communication and seamless shifting across several digital channels so that agreements are always at your fingertips, regardless of your device.
- Agree – Design, then generate, documents and prefill them with data from trusted sources. Send signature requests to one or many people who can act sequentially or in any order, you decide. Once everyone has signed the document, Impression can mail it back or drop it back in the document storage system of choice. Send it. Sign it. Sorted.
- Trust – A broker for ensuring that a customer's agreement process remains compliant and that the integrity of the transaction is maintained. This module onboards and promotes strong digital identities as a mechanism for interacting with the digital world.
- Manage – Every document signed with Impression contains a full audit trail of the process followed, maintaining the chain of custody. Customers can also track documents throughout their journey via dashboards noting when requests are opened, how the document is paged through, signed and ultimately returned.
