Room For Improvement

Users request better affordability, integrations, dynamic features, interface accessibility, workflow improvements, and enhanced AI for PandaDoc.
SignNow could improve multiple signatory fields, API pricing, security, user roles, support, customization, and document sorting features.
Basically, a kind of dynamic total, a dynamic sum up of the tables where we could tell PandaDoc to mark table one and two as the base value that is unchangeable, and table three and four correspond to optional deliverables that the client can select or not and that will naturally affect the total value.

Sometimes it can be slow to load, especially when dealing with a lot of documents, which should be improved.

An easier integrated invoicing as an included feature would be ideal so we don't have to use different software for invoicing and payment collection.

Business Development Manager at Nestle
Digital workflows have transformed contract signing and save time with remote approvals
In my opinion, the best features PandaDoc offers include ease of template creation, integration with other tools such as HubSpot, a user-friendly interface, and customizable templates. The integration with HubSpot enhances the overall user experience for my team, especially for the less technical users. PandaDoc has positively impacted my organization by being really helpful, especially as a game-changer when dealing with documents with our remote clients. We are able to send them the documents, and they can sign using their phone, so they do not have to come all the way to our office to sign the documents. They save a lot of time and cost, achieving approximately 70 to 80 percent time saved and cost savings from traveling. I also value the ability to obtain signatures from our clients, making us more efficient and saving time and money. The pricing model of PandaDoc is far superior to that of other competitors, thus being very cost-effective and affordable. It definitely helps us provide a better customer experience to retain our customers as they know we are very professional.
Vopic Mishra - PeerSpot reviewer

Digital signatures have transformed contract approvals and saved time across our teams
My experience while using SignNow has been five to six years. The mobile app support has been really helpful because they have been really proactive in case we want to reach out to them about any issue. We reach out to them instantly and they quickly give us a solution to our problem or support us 24/7. That has really worked well, especially with our mobile support when we or our clients have concerns with the mobile app. The mobile app has also been really great because it helps our team while working from home or remotely. They are able to open the mobile app and sign documents on the go, promoting collaboration. SignNow has positively impacted my organization. Since we started using SignNow, it has improved the time for signature collection, saving both parties time and reducing client doubts about signing with us. It has improved team collaboration because we all have access to this tool, and NDAs are signed much faster than they used to be. Reusable templates help out a lot.
