Sakshi Thakur

Senior Manager at a legal firm with 1,001-5,000 employees

Automation has transformed complex contract lifecycles and now supports high-volume workflows

The only drawback of Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) is that it does not work for small-scale business areas because I have implemented it for one customer with four or five pages of templates and three to four record types. For that small business, Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) does not work well because it is a bit complicated. Sometimes all customers need is a click of a button to go in and do things, and Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) is a bit complicated for such kinds of businesses. There are definitely areas where Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) could be easier to use for smaller businesses, particularly making processes more streamlined and user-friendly.

Our contracts are moving from draft to full authorization significantly faster now

* The redline function isn’t sufficiently robust. Our clients struggle with the tool during negotiation. * The search feature needs to be a bit more robust, to facilitate complex search functions. * Integration with our ERP system (and other systems) needs to be enabled. SpringCM reports that they are working on all of these items and that they are integrated into their roadmap.
