I'm early in my Conga Composer journey but, even in my limited experience, there is nothing it can't handle (within reason) and the sky's the limit. I have found it rather difficult to learn (most queries) as I'm learning on my own with the Conga Learning Center and YouTube videos.

• With this technology, you don't have to rely on experts all the time to design functional processes, which is a big plus for me.
• There is a superb support team and expert services, and they'll get you up and running in no time.
• Our document management system has been enhanced, and it now updates and maintains itself more quickly.

• We have been using SF for a while, and document mapping has been manual until now. With Conga, we can integrate documents between various systems and SF.
• Due to how document generation worked in our systems, we were restricted to using only PDF documents before. Now, we are able to work with multiple file formats.
• We can also free up some of the resource's bandwidth by automating some of the generic document generation.

• There is some difficulty in understanding the training material. Make it easier to understand how to use key features in real-world work situations by providing more thorough examples or videos.
• Custom scripts would benefit from greater online training and certification options.
• The user interface is a nightmare to work with. It could take anywhere from five to ten clicks to move a file to a new subfolder.

Incentivized

• Initially, it is hard to comprehend as the setup process is a bit complex. More user adoption tools, such as tutorials and resources, would help.
• Sometimes the error message is very generic and hard to troubleshoot.
• Better UI would also be a plus.

Though I love how easily Conga Composer ties into Salesforce and its given analytics, it takes a lot of data entry to get up and running. I don't love that sometimes queries can take a long time to pull. I like keeping our marketing templates consistent via templates in the system. Pulling multiple objects into one report is fantastic too.

It's a fairly simple tool to integrate into your current business structure. When we've had issues, we were able to resolve them extremely quickly. The users click a button and it can bring in all the quote lines, and our credit application seamlessly into our tool. I'd definitely recommend it to other colleagues

It was available, it just didn't always work depending on what glitches were happening within our app

This product appears to work well. It was not a fit for us this time, but we would consider in future

It's been hit and miss depending on the issue. We use javascript to generate the urls which has confused many techs even though it generates a clean url - they are overwhelmed by the concept of code and can't understand that the url is all that matters.

It was painful internally to build out all of the templates, but the actual implementation of the product was okay.

Using AODocs, we can solve difficult business procedures immediately. Regular updates bring new capabilities to the platform. This workflow engine is superior to all others I've used in SharePoint and Nintex over the years. Until now, I (we) have not encountered a business problem that we couldn't solve. AODocs is a top-notch service.

I think Nintex is the primary competitor for Conga Composer, but I have not personally used it. I was not present for the decision to purchase Conga but I would recommend it in future document automation vendor selection processes because I have seen how well it works! We are especially fond of complementary features in Conga Composer, including Conga Email Templates and Conga Global Merge.

Not fair. Its an upfront cost and then pay per use

We used it for something simple and it was still a pain to use
