RSign Offers a Guided eSign Experience, Faster Automating Templates, Bulk eSigning, Dynamic API Integrations

We’re too agile not to succeed because we keep a laser-like focus on innovation and great customer service.

This article is the third of a four-part series on RSign and how its feature richness and affordability will get you best-in-class, scalable e-signature software that will save you a lot of time and money.

Back in 2005, if you said, “I’m gonna do business with a brand-name bank, one of the big guys, an institution that’s been around for generations, you know, like Lehman Brothers, Bear Stearns or Credit Suisse,” nobody would fault you for not knowing that ALL these banks would be headed off a cliff. (You might also have had an inkling that, because any of these big banks were so intertwined with the larger economy, that governments would always be able to step in and bail them out if the unthinkable happened.)

At the same time in 2005, if you said that the Apprentice host, would be 45th President of the USA, you would likely get a lot more raised eyebrows to put it mildly. Fast-forward to present times, and now all these things have obviously come to pass—the most recent being the bailout/shotgun-wedding-to-a-competitor of Credit Suisse, one of the most storied banks in all of banking.

What does this all mean (other than ‘anything can happen’)? At least in terms of banks, it shows that size (in addition to storied history) matters little, and if you are thinking that the big bank you deal with will be deemed too-big-to-fail in the event of a crisis, I have some Merrill Lynch stock to sell you 😉. (Remember, in 2008, Bank of America was pressured to acquire the bull of Wall Street, Merrill Lynch, as a last minute save from the perils of its bankruptcy).

If these mega banks can collapse as they did, why would one bank with a local bank or credit union that presumably would not have the lobbying and PR muscle to get a government-induced bailout? I believe it is the widely shared belief that at a smaller bank, you can know the bankers and more importantly, they can get to know you (more easily). The presumption is that you will receive better, friendlier, and more personalized service. This explains recently released data by the National Credit Union Administration that shows total assets in federally insured credit unions rising by $108 billion, or 5.2 percent, to $2.17 trillion over the year ending in the fourth quarter of 2022.

RSign is in a similar situation in that it is not the biggest name in software, but we are seeing fantastic growth in our customer base because we offer all our customers, large and small, the kind of personalized, consultative, and supportive experience big tech could never provide.

As we often say: we simply can’t afford to make customers enter a support queue. Or upcharge for each feature. Or not be the most affordable. Or not continuously innovate so that we can always be the most feature-rich while easy to use.

RSign is the only global eSign platform designed with an affordable, flexible pricing model that adapts to businesses from all industries, sizes, and regions, and at the same time is feature-rich, easy to use, and friendlier to work with. And this is all built on 20 years of leadership in eSecurity, eSignature legalities, and eCompliance.

Who else offers a guided eSign experience, faster automating templates, bulk eSigning, dynamic API integrations, the specialized features you are looking for to solve your obscure workflows; and all with a trained eye on international privacy, compliance, and other key legalities?

In a sense, we’re not too big to fail; we’re too agile not to succeed because we keep a laser-like focus on innovation and great customer service.

Feel free to contact us to discuss how you can experience the RSign difference with your eSignatures. Remember, we’ve pre-built tons of integrations into platforms like iManage, NetDocuments, Salesforce.com, Applied Epic, Microsoft Outlook, Teams, and more.

I've never posted anything here before, but my friend and I have been working on a Halloween AU for a while, and we just published the prologue to Wattpad. To possibly get more attention, I thought, "hey, Tumblr has a bunch of weirdos who might like this, so why don't I post it here too?" So here we are... if anyone is remotely interested, read ahead, and if you like it leave feedback, we would appreciate it a lot!

Hallow Links

The Unknown (Prologue)

I did it. The blood dripped off my hands, and I took the knife out of the old man's back. His last words left his now bloody corpse. "Y-you will d-die by t-the h-hands of-insanity," The words that left his mouth filled with certainty. He fell on the ground, now bleeding on the floor, staining the once pristine carpet under him. Normal people would usually panic at the sight of death and blood, but I don't care anymore. The only thing that I want is in the library, and this is just one of the sacrifices I must make. I dragged the corpse to the room I needed.

The only notable things in the room are the forgotten book untouched by time itself, and the jar filled with something that doesn't exist. I don't remember how it got this bad. It was my first time reading these books in this library, and before I knew it I had killed someone for a book with words no one knows how to read, and would destroy the minds of people who read it.

Except for the person whose mind has already been broken. The words don't make sense, but somehow I understand. Phrases and symbols that don't belong in any human sentence. I opened the jar, and in a flash, its contents covered the floor. Morphing, and changing before settling onto the floor shaping itself into a circle.

I lift the book from the floor and start skimming as fast as I can. Faster, and faster yet somehow not fast enough, never fast enough. After seemingly ages of frenzied reading, I find the page I need. I drag the bloody corpse closer, until it rests in the circle. The substance surrounding it absorbs the body until nothing remains, not even the blood once smeared onto the wooden floor, and then the floor itself starts to cave in until there is a blank, dark hole. Suddenly, inexplicably, a bright light shines out of the hole, blinding me for a second, but this is what I knew would happen. I saw the figures of 5 people with their backs behind me, outlined in the light. I couldn't discern any more than that before my sight returned.

Before my eyes, I saw a glowing humanoid figure standing over the hole before it closed. My nerves must have gotten a hold of me, for I was unable to move. Fear ate my body whole leaving me unable to speak.

"Why was I brought here?" The figures' words were deep, almost like an adult, yet somehow prepubescent. It took me a moment before Imanaged to get my mouth under control. "I-I c-came to m-make a d-deal!" I try to say as coherently as possible. The entity slowly looked around the room as if it was trying to understand something.

"What does your heart desire?" The entity said getting closer to my face, ignoring my feeble attempts at speech. I felt pressure on my body making it painful to just look at him. "Do you desire your family back? Do you wish to see them peacefully?"

I took a step back in shock from what he said. I didn't even say my wish yet it already knows? "I know everything Jack," The entity said, taking another step forward. "I know the beginning of the universe, and I know the end of it. I know who everything, and everyone is," The room shifts around breaking and moving into a deep empty space. "I know every sin committed, and every soul named. I know you, Jack,"

I looked around to see the very beginning of the universe. A freezing cold surrounds my body before waves of intense heat smack into me from the beginnings of the big bang. "I know what every soul wants, and what every soul hates," The entity looked into my eyes. "I know what you want Jack,"

Another flash of light hits my eyes, making me shut them in a panic. I slowly open them to see very familiar figures at what appears to be a gate. I shed a tear looking at a tall female and a little girl and boy holding her hand. I see her slowly turn back to me before another light flashes. Now I'm in a smashed car. Panic runs through my body looking at the other seats of the car. A dead woman and two kids sit next to me, their eyes unseeing.

I almost vomit again from reliving that terrible memory. I look up again to see nothing but empty space, and the entity. "But you must tell me what you want mortal," The entity spoke in a somewhat calming voice. "That is the only way for the spell to work." I opened my mouth trying to say something, anything, but nothing came out. The moment seemed to flash by before I yelled out.

"I WANT MY FAMILY BACK!" My voice echoes in the empty space, bouncing on nothing. "I want my family again," I say again, calming down from the adrenaline pumping through my body. The seconds that pass feel like years ticking by, like falling sand in an hourglass. "Then take my hand, and listen closely," The entity raised his hand, offering it to me. I hesitate for a moment before thinking to myself about what I just said. I slowly grab his hand, and as I do a wave of pain surges through my hand, then arm, before reaching my head.

"You must regain your sanity and free the five souls of Halloween, then, and only then will you get to see your family again. Do I make myself clear?" The voice runs through my head like a bullet train, getting louder and louder as each word leaves his non-existent mouth. I grab my head out of pain, trying to steady myself. "Y-YES!" I yell out.

"Then our deal is made, and my entertainment and conditions must be met or else you will face the consequences," He lets go of my hand, and as he does so I regain my train of thought. I let out gasps of air from my lungs, breathing heavily. "Then I will see you 5 years from now, at the end of Halloween," He vanishes out of thin air leaving the room exactly the way it was except for the book, which disappeared.

Five souls of Halloween. I felt like I have heard that before. I took out my phone and googled 'Five Souls of Halloween'. The first thing to pop up was an article made by an old man, claimed insane, who wrote about how he survived an attack from a Scarecrow, a Witch, a Windigo, a Plague Doctor, and a Ghost. The only thing about their location was that it happened in an old barn in the middle of nowhere in New York. I looked at the hand that the entity had taken and saw a branding on my palm. I closed my hand and started to pack. Time to find the Five Souls of Halloween to save what I have lost.

RSign is the Global eSignature Platform Designed with a (more) Affordable & Flexible Pricing Model

RSign Makes the Migration Process Effortless with its Managed Migration Service and Ready-at-a-Click Integrations

Feeling glum lately? You’re not alone. According to a University of Michigan study, Americans and Europeans are experiencing historically low levels of happiness and well-being. A vast majority of Americans feel like their country is on the wrong track, and Europeans are having their collective joie de vivre sapped with ballooning energy cost inflation. And all of this is happening against the backdrop of a relatively healthy job market. In the US, unemployment stands at a scant 3.6%, essentially the pre-pandemic level.

So why the long faces all over the world? There’s certainly a hangover from the pandemic; but that’s getting old. The normal regional wars, political division, and crime – that is always around somewhere. And then there is the price of gas; each fill up today cost-wise is like buying a tank of gas plus large pizza, but without the satisfaction of eating the pizza.

Who knows what it is, but with all this said, something surely is pulling down US consumer sentiment. It is as low as low can be despite a relatively high savings rate among Americans.

Perhaps what is shocking is just how low it is compared to other historically bad times in American history. Yes, consumer sentiment is worse now than it was during Vietnam, Watergate, the stagflation era, 9/11, the Great Recession, the early-stage pandemic, the oil crises (all of them), and the breakup of the Beatles. (Conversely, consumer sentiment seemed to reach its historic peak around the time our company was founded at the turn of the millennium. Correlation or causation, I wonder…)

To delve into the reasoning behind this would be the billion-dollar question to which I don’t have the answer. Such negative sentiment is so powerful that it could drag us all into a recession even when many economic indicators are quite healthy.

So, it seems like it’s time to get very serious about cost savings. One easy target? Get rid of the glum rationing of e-sign licenses and bring in the cheer of HUGE savings. Imagine giving your whole organization access to e-sign while saving 67% of your e-sign costs and getting customer service and training on par or better than what you currently have.

It’s all possible with RSign, the only global electronic signature platform designed with a (more) affordable, flexible pricing model that adapts to businesses from all industries, sizes, and regions, and at the same time is feature-rich, easy to use, and friendlier to work with. RSign is the only global e-signature platform built on 20 years of leadership in email security and compliance, and it is built to meet even your most obscure requirements.

And, here’s some more well-needed cheer: RSign makes the migration process effortless with its managed migration service and ready-at-a-click integrations into Office 365, iManage, NetDocuments, and more. Check out this article from earlier in the year about the cost savings and efficiencies RSign can bring organizations.

And please contact us to discuss how you can get started with RSign now. Hey, if enough people switch, we may see that depressing consumer sentiment chart starts trending in the right direction.

New Post has been published on https://magzoso.com/tech/vivo-u20-review/

Vivo U20 Review

Vivo brought the Vivo U10 in India in late September to compete with Xiaomi and Realme at the budget end of the market. The Vivo U10 is powered by the same Qualcomm Snapdragon 665 processor as the Redmi Note 8 and the Realme 5. With the competition churning out phones at such a high rate, it was time for Vivo to push out an update, and now it has, with the Vivo U20. The naming clearly suggests that this is a higher-end model than the Vivo U10, and we are expecting this smartphone to keep the competition in the market alive.

Equipped with a powerful Snapdragon 675 SoC, this phone could have an edge over its competition. Will this be enough to sway your choice in its direction? We put the Vivo U20 to the test to find out.

Vivo U20 Design

When we got our hands on the Vivo U10 (Review) we had pointed out that it was boxy and bulky. The new Vivo U20 isn’t a whole lot different, as it weighs 193g and is 8.9mm thick. We think that some people will find it too unwieldy for daily use. The display has grown in size, and the IPS LCD panel on the Vivo U20 measures 6.53 inches. It has thin bezels on the sides and Vivo claims a screen-to-body ratio of 90.3 percent. We found the display bright enough when outdoors, and it had decent viewing angles. Vivo has opted for a full-HD+ panel which is a welcome upgrade over the HD+ display of the U10.

The back of the Vivo U20 is flat but the sides are rounded which helps when holding it in the hand. Vivo has opted for a plastic back panel and frame. The back panel has a glossy finish which makes it a fingerprint magnet. We had to constantly wipe the back of the smartphone, and ultimately, we decided to use the bundled case to prevent smudges.

We found the power and the volume buttons to be positioned a little too high for comfort, and they needed a bit of a shuffle to reach. The rear-mounted fingerprint scanner is also positioned slightly too high for our liking. Vivo still uses a Micro-USB port on the U20, which should’ve been dropped in favour of USB Type-C. The 3.5mm headphone jack and the loudspeaker are placed on either side of the Micro-USB port, along with the primary microphone.

The smartphone packs a triple camera setup at the back, placed in a module which is slightly raised.

Vivo U20 specifications and software

The Vivo U20 does boast of some impressive hardware, with the highlight being the Qualcomm Snapdragon 675 SoC. This is the same processor that powered the Redmi Note 7 Pro (Review) which was launched earlier this year at a higher price. It packs quite a punch, and people looking to play games and multitask should be able to do so on the Vivo U20 without any issues. The competition at this price level, including the Realme 5 (Review), and the Redmi Note 8 (Review), use the relatively less powerful Snapdragon 665 SoC.

Vivo has matched this SoC with 4GB or 6GB of RAM, while storage is 64GB for both variants. Surprisingly, Vivo offers UFS 2.1 storage which helps while transferring files to and from the smartphones. Storage is expandable by upto 256GB using a microSD card.

Vivo has priced the base 4GB RAM variant at Rs. 10,990 while the 6GB RAM variant is priced at Rs. 11,990. You also get two colour options to choose from, Racing Black and Blaze Blue. We had the Racing Black variant for this review, which we liked. If you prefer gradient finishes, then Blaze Blue is the one for you.

Connectivity options on the Vivo U20 include Bluetooth 5, dual-band Wi-Fi, four satellite navigation systems, and FM Radio. Vivo has packed a 5,000mAh battery into the U20, and supplies an 18W Dual-Engine fast charger in the box.

Vivo ships the U20 with Funtouch OS 9.2 running on top of Android 9 Pie. There is a lot of preinstalled bloatware. You get apps such as EasyShare, GameCenter, Gaana, Amazon Shopping, Helo, Dailyhunt, Opera, Facebook, WhatsApp, WPS office and one called iManager. Some of them are super spammy with notifications, and it would be better to simply uninstall them.

Funtouch OS requires you to swipe up from the bottom of the screen for the quick toggles which is the exact opposite of the action for every other Android smartphone. This can get annoying and confusing for the user. Vivo has baked in a few other customisations as well. Users can change the UI theme as well as the animations for charging and face recognition.

Vivo’s smart assistant Jovi is also built into the smartphone. It can help you recognise products you point the camera at, and reminds you to drink water throughout the day. There is Google’s Digital Wellbeing as well as parental controls, which help you manage how you spend your time on the smartphone. Smart features such as raise-to-wake, and the ability to quickly launch apps by drawing alphabets on the lock screen, are also available.

Vivo offers a Motorbike mode which rejects all incoming calls when you are in motion, and sends an SMS automatically to callers.

The Ultra Game mode which is filled with feature such as off-screen Autoplay which lets a game run even with the display switched off. You can block notifications and answer calls automatically in hands-free mode to minimise interruptions when you’re playing games. If you don’t want to be bothered, it can reject calls right away instead. You can customise these options for each game individually.

This mode also has a “sound localisation training center”, and this is the first time we are seeing such a thing on a smartphone. This feature is for PUBG Mobile and it trains you to recognise sounds from the game in an attempt to improve your performance. If you are a serious gamer you might find it useful, whereas casual gamers can ignore it.

Vivo U20 performance and battery life

The Vivo U20 managed to grab our attention for its aggressive price and powerful processor. The Snapdragon 675 debuted with the Redmi Note 7 Pro, and when launched it was the most powerful processor in a smartphone priced under Rs. 15,000 and now it has made its way to a lower budget tier. We did not notice any lag while scrolling through the Vivo U20’s UI, or any stutters when switching between multiple apps. Since we had the top-end 6GB RAM variant, we did not face any issues while multitasking either, and the phone could seamlessly switch between multiple apps.

The U20 was quick to unlock using the rear-mounted fingerprint scanner as well as the face unlock feature. While the display is not as punchy as the AMOLED panels on some other phones, such as the Samsung Galaxy M30s (Review), it does get bright enough when outdoors. The speaker wasn’t loud though and also sounded tinny.

There is support for dual 4G VoLTE as well as a dedicated microSD card slot.

Our benchmark tests gave us a fair idea as to how the Vivo U20 with its Snapdragon 675 processor fares against the Redmi Note 8 and the Realme 5s, which are powered by the Snapdragon 665. The Vivo U20 scored 210,249 in AnTuTu Benchmark v8, which is higher than the 169,832 scored by the Redmi Note 8 and 167,487 scored by the Realme 5s. The U20 also scored 504 and 1,638 in Geekbench’s single-core and multi-core tests respectively. We also saw 42fps and 7.8fps in GFXBench’s T-Rex and Car Chase benchmarks respectively.

We played PUBG Mobile on the Vivo U20, which defaulted to the High preset with graphics set to HD and the frame rate set to High. We did not notice any issues at these settings and could play the game well. Just like we’ve experienced with other phones powered by the Snapdragon 675, the Vivo U20 did get slightly warm to the touch after gaming for around 20 minutes. We also noticed a battery drop of 5 percent over the same duration.

Battery life for the Vivo U20 is quite good, and this smartphone can last over a day and a half easily on a single charge. With our usage which consisted of an active WhatsApp account, playing PUBG Mobile, taking a few camera samples, and using GPS for navigation, we were left with 45 percent at the end of 24 hours. In our HD video loop test, the smartphone managed 14 hours and 59 minutes.

Charging the 5,000mAh battery does not take long. The supplied fast charger got us up to 33 percent in half an hour and 67 percent in an hour. A full charge will take around two hours.

Vivo U20 cameras

Vivo has gone with a triple camera setup for the U20, which consists of a 16-megapixel primary camera with a Sony IMX499 sensor, an 8-megapixel super-wide-angle camera, and a 2-megapixel macro camera. For selfies, it has a 16-megapixel camera. The camera application is similar to what we have seen on recent Vivo smartphones. It has Night, Portrait, Pano, Live Photo, Pro, AR Stickers, and Time-Lapse modes to shoot with. It has a Jovi feature as well, which uses Vivo’s Jovi assistant to identify what the camera is pointed towards and find e-commerce listings for similar products.

There are quick toggles for HDR, and different filters which can be applied before taking a shot. The camera app offers a toggle for 2x zoom which the phone does digitally. There are separate toggles to switch to the wide-angle and super macro cameras which we feel should have been integrated better.

The Vivo U20 is quick to lock focus and set the exposure right, it also enables HDR automatically when shooting in bright environments. Photos taken with the Vivo U20 looked good, but did not have the best details. This was evident on zooming in to them, and we could see slightly grainy output. The wide-angle-camera does deliver a wider field of view but we could see distortion at the edges, and the sensor failed to capture details.

Close-up shots fared better, as the phone managed good detail and a natural depth of field between the subject and the background. Portraits had good edge detection and the U20 blurred the background correctly, but you don’t get the option to set the level of blur in this mode. There is a separate Bokeh mode that lets you control this, and we think these two should have been combined.

Low-light camera performance isn’t great. The Vivo U20 missed out on details and delivered grainy output. Switching to Night mode did result in brighter images but they weren’t significantly better. The phone keeps the shutter open for longer, so you will need to be steady while taking a shot in this mode. The overall quality of the cameras was nowhere near the best we’ve seen in this price range.

Selfies taken with the Vivo U20 (tap to see full-sized image)

Selfies shot indoors were also below average in quality and you will notice grain on zooming in. It’s best to limit these selfies to casual social media sharing.

Video recording maxes out at 4K for the primary camera and 1080p for the selfie shooter. We found video stabilisation to be adequate when shooting in the day, but focusing speed could have been better. In low light, there was a significant shimmer effect which was also visible in the viewfinder while shooting.

Verdict

Vivo stirred up the competition when it launched the U10 in the sub-Rs. 10,000 market and the company is repeating that at a slightly more premium positioning with the Vivo U20. This new smartphone packs in powerful hardware and a big battery at an aggressive price. That said, the U20 isn’t a perfect all-rounder; the cameras did leave us wanting.

If you are looking for a device primarily for gaming then the Vivo U20 should be pretty high on your shortlist. You could also consider the Realme 5s and the Redmi Note 8 (Review) as possible alternatives to the Vivo U20.
