Citrix Acquires RightSignature to Streamline Workflows

Citrix today announced that it has completed its acquisition of RightSignature, a leading cloud-based electronic signature company located in Santa Barbara, Calif. RightSignature, which integrates with Citrix ShareFile, provides a simple way to get documents signed electronically, helping customers to digitize documents, automate processes and go paperless.

Building on the popularity of the joint ShareFile and RightSignature solution released last year, the acquisition enables Citrix to extend its ShareFile product line to include e-signature. With RightSignature, Citrix continues to add services that allow customers to work better together from anywhere by enabling a critical part of the document workflow in the many industries that require signatures such as accounting, financial services, healthcare and insurance.

"Our customers' most important documents are often those that require signatures," said Jesse Lipson, Vice President and General Manager, Citrix. "With the acquisition of RightSignature, we advance our leadership in enabling and simplifying workflows that are core to our customers' businesses. From document creation to execution, Citrix empowers you to swiftly take care of business whenever and wherever."

"We started with a simple idea: to enable easy online document signing," said Daryl Bernstein, CEO, RightSignature. "Now, almost six years later, professionals and businesses – in almost every industry and across five continents – sign millions of documents every year using RightSignature. Our team shares the same vision and culture as Citrix, making Citrix the perfect home as we accelerate RightSignature's growth."

The RightSignature team will join the Citrix organization immediately. The terms of the acquisition were not disclosed.
