Challenges Before Implementation
Exploring Future Sales Expansion Amid Growing Interest in Electronic Contracts

CloudSign, which Bengo4.com, Inc. began operating in 2016, started with contracts from just a few companies.
At the time of launch, awareness and trust in electronic contracts in Japan were low, and there were reportedly difficulties regarding compliance with Japanese electronic signature laws.
Since then, the company has expanded its CloudSign services in line with changing times.
While we were unable to find a solution to our problems, we were suddenly faced with the COVID-19 pandemic, which changed the situation entirely.
It became difficult to commute to the office solely for the purpose of stamping documents, and an increasing number of companies began to reconsider traditional contracting methods that required face-to-face meetings or the physical exchange of stamped contracts.
Electronic contracts garnered significant attention, and it became an urgent priority for the company to expand services centered on sales to businesses requiring CloudSign.
Consequently, Bengo4.com, Inc. decided to move forward with the implementation of a new service.
Key Reasons for Adoption
The Deciding Factor Was the Overwhelming Volume of Information Covering Headquarters, Branches, and Business Offices
Mr. Takekawa was considering the adoption of other services. He shared the key points that led to the decision to choose uSonar Co., Ltd.


Results Achieved
Preparation Completed with Great Cooperation for Implementation
High Expectations for Full-Scale Operation
Bengo4.com, Inc. has completed the reconstruction of its internal customer database environment and plans to begin full-scale sales activities utilizing this database moving forward.
Consolidating the data within their active Salesforce environment required a significant degree of caution.
Mr. Takekawa notes that it took approximately six months just to consolidate the data, after which they began the process of fully implementing uSonar and SideSonar.
Mr. Takekawa highlighted the high quality of uSonar's services, noting that he was particularly impressed by their diligent and enthusiastic support.
The customer database, now integrated with uSonar and SideSonar, was successfully restructured in October.
Bengo4.com, Inc. is currently in the phase of reviewing team training and usage strategies to prepare for full-scale utilization, primarily within their sales planning department.
