If you’re a user of Zoho Office Suite, there’s some exciting blockchain-related news for you. Zoho Sign has now been blessed with the feature of blockchain-based time-stamping, which can significantly improve the security of your signed documents.

Blockchain will act as an additional layer of verification to prove that you actually signed a document.

The feature was announced on Zoho’s website . According to the announcement, Zoho is using Ethereum’s blockchain for this feature. Whenever someone signs a document using Zoho Sign, a copy of the time-stamp will be saved to Ethereum’s public blockchain. This copy can serve as additional proof of signing for sensitive documents.

Certainly, this is an important feature for an enterprise software service provider to get started with blockchain. But Zoho’s interest in blockchain is not limited to this feature alone.

Other blockchain features also in the offing

Raju Vegesna, Zoho’s Chief Evangelist, revealed further about Zoho’s tryst with blockchain. He said that this signing functionality is only one aspect of Zoho’s efforts to integrate blockchain technology with its offerings. The company is also investigating possible use-cases of this technology around its accounting software.

In short, Zoho is diving deep into blockchain. We can expect it to launch many blockchain-focused features across its Office Suite apps in the days to come.
