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.

Integrated planning has improved document automation but reporting and user experience still need work
There are areas where Infor CloudSuite can improve. I have touched on the pros and key strengths of Infor CloudSuite, but end-user feedback indicates that there are several areas where the user experience can improve. For instance, when it comes to reporting, it comes with a very limited number of reports, and the standard reports are clunky, requiring a technical resource or developer to enhance or make them presentable. Another area is user experience; it takes several clicks to get to the information, and the user interface isn't that intuitive. Compared to other solutions, such as top-tier options such as Oracle or SAP, this stands out as an area needing improvement. When it comes to integration, Infor CloudSuite does offer a great deal of flexibility. It comes with APIs, so you can integrate with any third-party systems you may use. On that front, it's sufficient; however, it does require some specialized resources, as it's not a layman's job, and developers need to help with the integration. This is generally the case for any ERP. The user interface could indeed be better, and there is a steep learning curve for users; it takes time for them to get accustomed to Infor CloudSuite's interface and forms. However, once users adapt, it becomes easier and smoother to navigate. There are great features associated with Infor CloudSuite, such as DataViews and Birst as a business intelligence tool, which can be integrated with the basic product. Implementing Birst isn't plug-and-play; it requires a team of technical resources to execute. Additionally, there is a feature that allows integration with Excel, which can be installed by your IT team.

Pros

"Globally, the overall time to contract is now seven to ten days, and this has been greatly appreciated by our Legal Ops head."

Cons

"Sometimes I feel that the generation of templates in Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) is slow or it breaks somewhere."
"Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) has too much customization, making it not that easy to scale it up and scale it out."
"I have not used Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) deeply, but I know that document generation still has some improvements that need to be implemented."
"I would tell others looking into using Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) that it is useful, but the licenses are a bit expensive compared to the other contract lifecycle managements in the market."
"Secondly, users have reported that X-Author is not functioning consistently, so if we could have an easier feature for accepting or rejecting changes, that would be beneficial from a user perspective."
"Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) can be improved by making the configuration of approvals a little simpler."
"Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) can be improved because implementation can be complex, and the loading process could be enhanced."
"The first is ease of configuration. Some advanced workflows and business rules can be complex to set up and maintain, especially for organizations with unique contract processes."
"Planning needs to be improved. That is, industry-specific planning details need to be added and refined."
"In Germany, there aren't enough IT specialists for customization and software development, causing projects to take too long."
"There are areas where Infor CloudSuite can improve. For instance, when it comes to reporting, it comes with a very limited number of reports, and the standard reports are clunky, requiring a technical resource or developer to enhance or make them presentable."
"Regarding integration, specific third-party tools are not accepted, for example, on the old version of IBM or Oracle."
"Infor OS is powerful, but the documentation is terrible."
"Infor needs to work on its documentation. For example, if I need to create a business object deployment from LVN to element, the instructions for this are insufficient. Many specific use cases aren't covered in the manual."
"The solution's support service could be better."
"There should be better clarity and agreement on all interfaces and requirements before signing a contract. This would avoid unexpected costs and complications later on."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available

"I feel it is not very cheap, very economical but also not very expensive."
"The pricing is not built on a standard model."
"The platform's pricing depends on the specific number of users."

"It is a cost-effective solution."
