The complete system has been in production for several months. The signature interface has proven to be stable and reliable. The expectations were fulfilled and the uncomplicated support from Pdftools deserves special mention.

The processing of vendor invoices is now much simpler. We don‘t need scanning stations at the different locations, meaning no administration is required for stations either. The processing of the sent stacks of invoices by the software running is highly stable and fast.
