Streamlined contract signing with effective automation and helpful for loss tracking
We use Conga Contracts, Conga Composer, Conga Grid, and Conga Orchestrate. We have a business all over the world, and due to currency symbols, alphabetical changes, logos, and entity names, we need to build a formula where the template remains the same but the contract terms are different for…

A user-friendly document automation solution that seamlessly connects to various data sources
Some of the administrative functions in the Hub could be better. The administrative function is the aspect of account management, invoicing management, billing management. It is not related to the tool itself but the ability to buy and manage the tool. The purchasing, the administration, the renewal processes could be better. Being able to have visibility into how much you use would be helpful because you buy an allotment of output. Let's say their tool allows you to output a thousand pages a month. Having visibility into how much of that you have used and how much is remaining can be improved. They have a very robust error-handling logic feature; not errors with their tool per se, but when you're building out templates, you can do conditional things that cause errors. They have a very good reporting feature for that, but they could improve that by showing some additional data points. Scalability could also be better. They could offer more tiers that are suitable for larger organizations.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It's quite simple."
"Once you understand how to build the templates, it's a pretty straightforward process. It allows you to create both Word and Excel documents."
"I have never faced any issues with stability."
"Conga Composer is easy to use, especially for C-level executives, as it simplifies the contract signing process."
"I find the Conga email template creation and the document template creation features very useful."
"The most valuable feature is the automatic generation of invoices and the ability to merge fields from Salesforce into the document, creating a clean and professional invoice."
"I like Conga Composer because it's simple and flexible. I can manage complex formatting and queries easily and integrate it with other tools like DocuSign for the signing process. I’ve used it in Salesforce by installing the Conga Composer package, creating Conga solutions, queries, templates, and using different parameters. Integration with DocuSign allows me to send documents for signatures with just one click, which has greatly improved workflows. By automating processes, such as generating quotes, it has reduced human errors significantly. I also find the ability to generate documents in various formats like PowerPoint, Excel, and Word very useful. However, I haven't worked with its AI capabilities yet."
"I like that Conga Composer allows for the generation of PDFs according to specific requirements by creating templates and pulling all the information added into those fields."
"What we find most valuable would probably be the ability to connect to various data sources and utilize different data-source objects like store procedures and views. I also like the ability to build relationships between multiple data sources and populate documents automatically."
"Instead of having IT involved in generating documents, each user can create his/her own templates as needed. Individual teams can create templates for their group. This is a big savings, not just in cost but also a quicker turn-around."
 

Cons

"The documentation could be improved."
"Conga is getting more and more expensive."
"It would be better to have a custom button that automatically sends a document to the client's email and sends it for a signature with a single click."
"The initial setup is at an intermediate level of difficulty since understanding Conga Composer for the first time can be confusing."
"When setting conditions, it doesn't work as expected, requiring us to rework the code."
"If there could be a preview option available directly in the application for testing templates instead of having to download and test them manually, it would save time."
"We have not been using Conga Composer extensively or deeply to look for improvements."
"The query builder could use some updates."
"Some of the administrative functions in the Hub could be better. The administrative function is the aspect of account management, invoicing management, billing management. It is not related to the tool itself but the ability to buy and manage the tool."
"The thing the product does not include is digital signing and so we have to continue to use DocuSign."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Regarding pricing, I believe it’s around fifty dollars, but I’m not entirely sure. Overall, I find the pricing reasonable and am quite satisfied with the product. The value we get from it justifies the cost, as it requires minimal maintenance and is straightforward to use. The functionality it provides aligns well with the investment."
"It's not cheap, but it's not overly expensive either."
"I think the tool costs around six dollars per user."
"I think it's very cost-competitive. However, I would like to see some additional licensing tiers for more enterprise-level organizations that have higher output limits, even if that cost a premium."
