# Signatures ShareFile delivers an electronic signature ability using **Signatures**. An electronic signature, sometimes known as an e-signature, is the same as your handwritten signature on a paper document, except electronic — a mark on an electronic contract or document you make to demonstrate your intent to agree to the terms of that document. **Signatures** gives you the power to obtain legally binding signatures on documents entirely online, being completed more quickly and securely than executing paper documents. * **Search** supports querying **Signature requests** by Signature Request name, signer name, or signer email address. * **Filter** allows **Signature requests** to be filtered by status, including In Progress, Completed, Expired, Declined, Voided, Draft, and Revision in Progress, with support for multi-selecting multiple statuses at once. * **Admin view** provides **Admin users** with account-level visibility into all Signature requests created within the account. > **Note:** > > Native e-signature notifications use the ** email address.
