Conga Composer vs. Worldox

From my experience, Conga Composer is particularly well-suited for generating documents, such as quotes and contracts, directly from Salesforce. It saves us a great deal of time, which is remarkably beneficial for companies with sales teams. Not suitable for companies lacking significant Salesforce expertise or administrative support.

Ease of navigation is probably the top seller for me. I might work on a dozen or more separate files per day and I need to be able to switch between files efficiently, especially when asked to find something quickly. Naming conventions are simple and easy to use. Searching for a document, even when there are hundreds, is pretty simple and straight forward.

• One great feature of Conga Composer is the ability to create various document types, including Word files, PDFs, and even PowerPoint presentations.
• The ability to encrypt and share data is quite impressive with Conga Composer.
• The integration, especially with different email providers, is quite good with Conga Composer.

• Forced structure via hooking into every day applications and producing Worldox Open and Save constructs versus the standard application Open and Save menus.
• Extreme customization options including cabinets, folders, and document types.
• The indexing system is very useful for locating documents by name, body, date, etc.

• Not very intuitive. Once you know the system it's fine but there is a learning curve
• I would like to see training opportunities on features that I am not using or aware of
• I am sure I am only using about 3% of it's full potential

Incentivized

• Cloud product is a little lacking
• Little bit of learning curve out of the box
• For a larger organization, may need to dedicate a resource to manage the program

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

Worldox is one of the easiest and user-friendly programs for document management systems that I have ever used. It is incredibly easy to create a document and then there are multiple ways to find a document. You can search by unique document ID numbers, document titles, and keywords within documents

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.

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.

Better due to the depth of document preservation options.

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

Needs additional training on what they are selling, how to install and use to explain to customers

• Could really use better error handling on the product when the document doesn't generate. Zero notifications are provided right now and have no idea where in a 20 page template the error is. Need to keep cutting the template into pieces to find the error.
• The report generates 90% of the time so far.
• Getting easier to generate templates when knowing how the JSON will be structured to add to merged fields.
• Use Work Plan Template Entries and Work Steps to dynamically generate many deliverables.

Incentivized

• Greatly improved productivity for users via searching, favorites, and forced organization.
• Versioning and document preview can also improve productivity versus opening individual files.
• Can require a "revolutionary" change in the workflow as the application's Open and Save prompts are radically different than normal application usage.
