eSign Done Right: Solex™
Last year, we took a close look at the state of eSign technology in the mortgage industry. While there are a number of eSign solutions on the market, we still saw gaps in the capabilities our lenders demanded. As more lenders move toward electronic closings, we knew the industry needed a tool that any borrower could use without the need for extensive customer support or proprietary software. As a result, Solex is a top-to-bottom redesign and modernization of Docutech’s existing eSign platform – the foundation that allows us to take eSign performance to the next level.

Preparing for Electronic Mortgage Lending
Having been in the business of helping lenders on the path to paperless for a good portion of our 25 years of service, we have seen many management teams approach eMortgage. Because this territory is so new for many, some companies stumble or hold back when they are on the very cusp of updating their institutions for the future.

What Happens when you Drive Loan Processes with Data
The mortgage industry is a document-centric business; you can’t get around it. If they don’t have the right documents, financial institutions can’t sell loans into the secondary market. This is an exciting time, because that no longer means that documents have to be printed on paper. So in working toward that new electronic workflow, business should be no longer driven by the documents themselves, but rather the data contained in them.
