User Testimonials
Conga ComposerWondershare PDFelement
Likelihood to Recommend
From my experience, Conga Composer is particularly well-suited for generating documents, such as quotes and contracts, directly from Salesforce. It saves us a great deal of time, which is remarkably beneficial for companies with sales teams. Not suitable for companies lacking significant Salesforce expertise or administrative support.

PDFelement Pro is well suited for all of our needs and our clients' needs. I bought the Windows version and liked it so much that I purchased the Mac version at the discount that I was offered at checkout. It performs well and is easy to learn and use. Companies could save so much money by using PDFelement instead of Adobe Acrobat Standard/Pro

Pros
  • It allows us to generate multiple documents at once using batch generation. This simple automation saves a lot of time for our team.
  • Its very user friendly. Even a newbie can simply generate document by clicking a button once this is setup by the admin.
  • Integrate Conga Sign with Conga Composer and it will automatically sent for e- signature once generated saving lot of time. we previously had to wait a lot for the signature.

Cons
  • Not very intuitive. Once you know the system it's fine but there is a learning curve
  • I would like to see training opportunities on features that I am not using or aware of
  • I am sure I am only using about 3% of it's full potential

  • I wish there was a lighter program for just reviewing a document and then to transition seamlessly to an editing mode. It takes a few seconds longer to load than Preview on my Mac, and based on that frustration, I use Preview to view documents.
  • A lower price for upgrades.

Likelihood to Renew
We most likely will renew conga because of it's strong salesforce integration and we're so engrained into it with all of our different brands and products/services. It would take a lot of time, money and resources to switch to something else.

Excellent, easy to use product

Usability
It's a fairly simple tool to integrate into your current business structure. When we've had issues, we were able to resolve them extremely quickly. The users click a button and it can bring in all the quote lines, and our credit application seamlessly into our tool. I'd definitely recommend it to other colleagues

Performance
This product appears to work well. It was not a fit for us this time, but we would consider in future

There is a lot of learning. Although some of the functions you can probably pick up relatively quickly, some of them, including compressing the size or using a different language, remains a myth to me.

Support Rating
As a conga parter we have created more than 50+ cases with conga support and many times we have got the answers on the chat support itself. A very effective knowledge base and conga university give you all the study material to enhance your product knowledge. Conga support has been very effective and has always responded quickly to questions and issues

Recently I have had a problem with introducing another laptop to the same license. I wrote an email to the Support Team of Wondershare Software and they successfully fixed the issue in less than 24 hours. Very unusual and impressive.

It was painful internally to build out all of the templates, but the actual implementation of the product was okay.

Alternatives Considered
We have not been able to find an offering that allowed for the level of customization or could handle the complexity of the solutions we've built using Conga's products. We selected Conga originally as it was recommended at the time (2012) and there weren't any better alternatives - but we have looked recently and still can't find anything better.

I haven't used any other product besides PDFelement. I found a product that I love and I'm sticking with it. I will say that I went with PDFelement based on reviews and based on the features that this product supplies vs. the others. I trust the company behind PDFelement (been using Wondershare Ultimate Video Converter for years), so I trusted the name
