DocuSign, the leading Web-based electronic signature (www.docusign.com) service, today announced that Allied Solutions, a leading reseller of financial services to credit unions and banks, will integrate DocuSign's eSignature service into Allied Solutions' wide variety of products and services. Allied Solutions selected DocuSign's enterprise-class eSignature platform because of the breadth and superiority of the DocuSign offering.

"Staying at the forefront of technological innovation has become a key to success in the credit union market today. At Allied Solutions, we recognized that electronic signatures were a 'must-have' in terms of not only being able to serve our members, but more importantly to help them serve their own clients. In our eyes, DocuSign is the clear leader in this area," said Peter Hilger, Executive Vice President, Allied Solutions. "Our members look to us for proven solutions to help them recruit new customers, cross-sell to their current customers and improve profitability. DocuSign's eSignature (www.docusign.com) service, having delivered over six million eSignature events, will allow our members to quickly and easily service customers better, close new business and grow revenue."

Beyond the positive operational impact of DocuSign, Allied Solutions' decision to choose DocuSign was based on its enterprise-class architecture, and its world class standard for quality, security, and reliability.
