With having all of our contracting through the Salesforce system, the ability to allow our legal teams to do more with generating documents, have controls over redlines, etc is ideal. When sales needs to make additional revisions to the underlying data, however, it can be lacking in strong tools.

SignNow is particularly useful for simple documents, forms and contracts where there the fields are pretty standards- names, signature block, title. It would be helpful to have features that allow substitution of certain fill in the blanks such that allow you to use the same template but first have a dialog to integrate language for a person, corporation, partnership or LLP. I'm a lawyer and having the ability to assemble variation of this nature into one template would be helpful. Also (and it may do this) the ability to change the actual form/document within the a template would be useful.

Pros
  • Unified Storage. All contracts are stored in a single, centralized repository, providing a comprehensive view of the entire contract lifecycle, including versions, negotiations, approval history, and metrics.
  • Easy Search. Advanced search capabilities, including natural language search, allow users to quickly find specific contracts or clauses.
  • Dynamic Approvals: Automate approval workflows to speed up the contract approval process and ensure compliance with company policies.

  • Provides a platform that is easy to create a document with a digital signature.
  • Provides a platform that is easy to access for people who are signing digitally.
  • The platform is easy for me to see who has or hasn't signed documents I've sent.

Cons
  • X-author for Word can be improved as it does not maintain a stable connection and the org gets disconnected frequently.
  • It does not support grandparent relationship for merge field population.
  • A separate package needs to be installed for the integration of CPQ and CLM tools from Conga.

  • When using shared templates, the option to rename the document is at the bottom of the signatures page. I would like that to be visible sooner as some of my team misses it and sends documents to clients with the templated name instead of the correct name because they forgot to scroll down far enough to see it.
  • CC'ed contacts used to show suggestions as you typed the email if you've sent that person a document before, but that functionality no longer shows on our account. I'd like to see that brought back.
  • It would be nice if we could add folders to our documents page so that we could sort sent and signed documents into individual client folders. The search feature works fine, but folders would help clean up the view for my team.

Simple and easy to use for the legal team to creates contracts in Salesforce and with the help of conga contract attaches the different clauses through the bundle and sends them for negotiation and for signature. This is the primary work they do from Conga contracts. We had solution which is build using conga contracts, conga composer and conga sign

It has also allowed us to streamline our onboarding process and allow us to have everything electronic and use less paper. We are also able to reach and hire people all over the world. Employees and candidates are able to access and sign important and time sensitive documents quickly. The system is user friendly and straightforward.

Usability
The current version is probably about a five. The new version, I have not used it a lot. I've only done some testing around in it, not a lot. I'd say it's probably a seven or eight.

I gave it a 9 because the system is very easy to use, even for those who are not very familiar with digital signatures. It is all very intuitive, you can send, sign and track documents without any complications. I only didn't give it a 10 because sometimes it gets stuck when the file is large (very rare but it happens) or there are a lot of people to sign, and then you have to keep resending it and also, as I mentioned, the dedicated support would be interesting in case of emergency. Dei 9 porque o sistema é bem fácil de usar, mesmo pra quem não é muito familiarizado com essas coisas de assinatura digital. É tudo bem intuitivo, dá pra enviar, assinar e acompanhar os docs sem complicação. Só não dei 10 porque às vezes ele dá umas travadas quando o arquivo é pesado (muito dificil mais acontece) ou tem muita gente pra assinar, e aí precisa ficar reenviando e também como comentei do suporte dedicado que seria interessante em caso de urgência

Reliability and Availability
Conga CLM’s availability has been solid in my experience as for a logistics company like ours that needs access across time zones and departments, Conga CLM is a great solution.
Read full review
SignNow is always available when I need it. It seems that most updates occur outside of business hours so I have full functionality when I need it most between the hours of 8am-6pm EST. There has only been I time when I experience application errors when I need to use the system but it did not last long and the issue was resolved within a few hours.

Support Rating
Very very difficult to get support. The support team is great for simple, general questions. If we ran into anything complex, we usually would figure it out before they could help us. We often were bounced around from rep to rep

I only used SignNow support when setting up. I uploaded a bunch of documents in the wrong place and needed assistance in moving them. Unfortunately they were not able to move the documents and I needed to upload into a different place. This is where I feel the system itself could benefit from some flexibility for their customers.

Conga University is the best! loved it. The courses are very well designed which makes learning easy and great. I have taken courses for conga contracts, composer, conga sign, and conga batch.

It was nice to be shown the basics of the system and be able to see or understand the specific functions our company would need to use, such as the template creation, document grouping and document group templates. Being taught on how to use these functions, made learning them much easier.

Make sure you know exactly what you need before implementation and be sure to ask how to use the most important functions of the system that you will be using.

Alternatives Considered
Conga CLM capabilities and speed is very good compared to other CLM solutions and also scalable and easy to configure and manage the enhancements. Conga CLm is also great for multiple verticals and users from various departments can easily adopt to the CLM applications or tool. The eas of use is also a factor

SignNow doesn't offer 3 x free documents to be signed monthly, and requires a subscription vs a pay-per-use, which is where Secured Signing shines. Secured Signing also has video verification and additional security measures that SignNow doesn't have. However, I find SignNow to be easier to use than Secured Signing.
