PandaDoc vs. Workday Contract Lifecycle Management, powered by Evisort AI

As an alternative to other electronic signature mechanisms, I can't recommend PandaDoc more highly. It works, plain and simple. It is less costly - by a lot - than most alternatives, stores signed documents online for easy access, is simple to use by both our staff and our clients, and makes our lives far easier.

Evisort is best when you already have all your contracts fully cleaned, designated, ordered, managed, linked, collated, titled and termed. It is not good if you expect the platform to help you go through a repository of contracts that you want the system to extract all the info you need and then you can decide easily what to keep and not etc - the sales team will tell you that the platform can do all of this. In my opinion, this isn't true.

• PandaDoc allows our team to create and send detailed sales proposals and quotes with the use of their templates.
• The use of collaborative editing is also beneficial because our team is able to have multiple users edit and comment on documents simultaneously.
• Document tracking is useful because we are able to receive real-time notifications and updates on the proposal process.

• Houses Contracts centrally
• Info display is pretty straight forward
• Terms Search function is solid

• I would like to see the ability to LOCK a field instead of locking an entire block or document.
• I would like to see more standard features that need to be part of the service instead of add-ons.
• Would like to see an option to allow different levels of users than just the two standard options.

We have been using it for a few years now and find it vital to getting our bids out quickly and accurately to our customers. We can get a request for information from a customer and once we have their basic parameters create a professional bid in minutes. It's actually usually harder to find out what the customer wants than to use PandaDoc and create a document with it

Once you get the hang of it, it's very easy to use. There can be a slightly steep learning curve to get fully in on the system. The new editor v2 has really improved usability and allows us to collaborate on documents simultaneously. Once the templates and library items are set up, a new document, whether it be a sales or HR document, takes very little time to complete.

It is clunkier than needs to be but it's not as bad as some of the other platforms we reviewed. The interface is pretty spartan, almost like reading a page and some color and segregation could help users segregate the UI by function and task. This is pretty straight forward but doubt they would implement

We haven't had any real issues regarding downtime as of yet.

As I mentioned earlier - performance is near perfect as I can create, send, adjust my documents. I love the tracking feature as well as I can tell when my documents have been seen and by whom. The only issue I have run into is with saving and formatting - occasionally the file document does not save with the newly assigned name or the content of the document does not stay formatted nicely.

Recently I could not upload a pdf to a contract - support was very responsive and easy to work with. They got back to me the next day with an apparent fix - however when I opened the document nothing had changed. I then could not respond to the rep who was helping me because it was a "no-reply address", the problem still has not been solved and we had to make alternate arrangements to get this to the client. Never had it happen before and was only with this one contract.

For all of the reasons listed above, essentially, once the platform is implemented it has its value, however, knowing what you get before implementation, might give ppl pause. The cost is a bit misleading and the sales team over promises and under delivers in my opinion. This is not cool and creates issues inevitably, down the line.

Implementation was before the time I was here at Riafox, however, support has been great in assisting to merge spaces and upgrade to 2.0 Editor.

PandaDoc is a more polished, professional, and 'legitimate' software site than other solutions, since PandaDoc really specializes in creating professional proposals, quotes and invoices. The eSignature capacity and pricing table capacity embedded in the documents as well as fillable fields, pre-made, customizable and reusable templates also make PandaDoc stand out.

Evisort is just getting in the game. Implementation is not as robust as Coupa and Adobe is more of a contract execution platform so it is not apples to apples to compare there. Essentially, Evisort is a a somewhat cheaper solution that is not a complete solution and needs more of an upfront lift than they would suggest.

I agree. We have created folders for multiple departments and have been successful with the usage.

• We have greatly increased the efficiency in which we can get signatures from individuals for documents and increase productivity.
• We have been able to find older documents very easily.
• W-9 have been very difficult due to Section 3, but this was addressed with conditional logic

• better Contract visibility
• centralized ownership
• contract alerts
