Signed, sealed, secured — why you should independently back up Docusign
It all starts with a contract. Docusign is a leading electronic signature and contract management platform, storing critical business agreements for 1.7 million organizations worldwide. It goes without saying that contracts and agreements are fundamental to business operations, compliance, and financial transactions.
Loss or corruption of signed agreements can lead to legal liabilities, financial losses, and operational disruptions. Keepit is adding Docusign to its portfolio — backing up even more of your critical SaaS operations in its independent cloud.
What does DocuSign back up natively?
Simply put, while DocuSign guarantees platform security and availability, customers are responsible for backing up their data and devices.
Docusign also imposes strict retention limits: customers only have a 24-hour window to restore deleted documents, uncompleted or expired documents may be removed after up to a year, and no recycle bin or soft-delete recovery options exist, leaving customers with minimal recovery windows.
Docusign houses your most important contracts and agreements, which are critical for HR, legal, purchasing, and various other functions inside your company. Without dedicated third-party backup solutions, any permanent deletion or system error could result in irreversible data loss.
To ensure continuity, compliance, and recoverability, leveraging an independent backup and recovery solution like Keepit is essential.
