    There are not a lot of competitors to compare this product with, but ActiveDocs holds its own as a very useful software for the need. I recommend doing a demo to see how the process works, but it's rather streamlined and easy to create a template and produce a document from it.

    Our use case for Conga Sign is pretty straightforward. Because of this, there is not much about it that would be considered excessive or inappropriate. It suits our needs as a tool to record data provided by a signer. It can also be launched from inside Salesforce via a custom button for ease of use.

    • Some businesses still don't consider digital signing of critical documents a legit way.
    • Conga sign still doesn't allow sending of multiple files for signing.
    • There is a slight rendering time we have noticed while the customer opens the document which can be reduced.

    Usability
    ActiveDocs
    Very good usability overall. Any user can pick this up and run with it. HotDocs, the closest competitor, has similar end-user usability, but from a designer of templates perspective, ActiveDocs definitely has the edge in this regard. I would recommend this for any company that mass produces documents from templates as deliverables.

    We're a relatively high-skilled team and we all find Conga Sign's user-friendliness very low for all user types. It should not take a highly skilled tech person to complete documents. Documents need to be user friendly for all user types.

    Performance
    ActiveDocs
    The software overall is very excellent. It responds quickly and produces documents well. The integration with systems makes data input easy. Questions can be designed to allow further expansion of template creation/customization. The rules section is very useful for complicated If/Than/Else style templates. Although experience and training help, the software is very user-friendly out of the box.

    Support Rating
    ActiveDocs
    ActiveDocs can be a considerably complex product because your use cases can be potentially endless. In our experience, when we have come across a problem or issue with the product ActiveDoc's support has always responded to our queries within 24 hours. Support is only provided via email in 95% of cases. Each year your support and maintenance includes support hours. These are used when you contact support and your issue is not found to be a bug or problem with the product (completely fair and understandable). When we've identified or discovered bugs (mainly with the latest version of Word) it is patched by the next release. They typically release about 4-5 updates per year.

    In relation to other software that have a functionality similar to ActiveDocs, they don't even compare in relation to the interface, I didn't use all the software available on the market, but the ones I used and I can compare, ActiveDocs is without a doubt the best among them. We really likes the interface.

    Conga Sign is much more affordable than DocuSign for our organization and we are using Conga Composer already to create documents. We found that the integration between Conga Composer and Conga Sign was easier to use and we have a nice discount from Conga due to us adopting several of their products. DocuSign for the price point didn't make sense to us and it has less write-back functionality with Salesforce.

    • We are growing our Strategic Partners and each requires a signed agreement, very essential to growing our business
    • We need to update our Plan Administration agreements and having automation for getting and tracking all of the signatures is vital
    • Conga Sign is good enough for all our use cases so we don't have to worry about using 3 or 4 solution platforms to gather signatures.
