Not a lawyer but I do deal with contracts under English law day in day out for my day job.
Docusign always saves the IP addresses and timestamps for any signatures. In addition it can be set up to require 2FA prior to accepting a signature - eg our lawyers will set it up to require an SMS 2FA confirmation and I've heard them say that this is a hard requirement for deeds as opposed to simple contracts (tho whether that's down to law firm policy, Docusign policy or court precedent I don't know).
