    Contentful
    It's a great all rounder for content projects. It's easy in the basics and powerful in the complex, data heavy scenarios. Extending the platform is straightforward and the SDK gives you everything you need. If you have many many varying content types , it gets expensive and perhaps not the best choice .

    eSign Genie has completely streamlined our tedious document process and helps us to easily manage our documents from signature to delivery and even with ongoing storage. This enhancement saves us time, money, and headaches and has been a true lifesaver for our organization and for our customers. I highly recommend it!

    Pros
    Contentful
    • Flexible. This CMS can be easily extended and provide access to dynamic content
    • Simple. The WYSWG is very easy to work with and identifying pages and content in the system is fairly easy
    • Clean Interface. The interface is clean and uncluttered keeping focus on the content and not other factors.

    • The learning curve is faster compared to the last software we used.
    • It is easier to set up the templates and email messages so that the text boxes line up seamlessly.
    • It is quicker to send agreements and to follow up if they are not returned in the allotted timeframe.
    • Making changes to the documents is fast and easy.

    Cons
    Contentful
    • Contentful uses "references" to allow you to build very modular content. If I have a "slider" content type, I can create a "slide" content type which references a "button" content type, and so forth. This works well, but I occasionally wish there was a better solution for one-off content, like a settings page. Currently, this is done for creating an entire content type called "settings" with a single entry. Not a big deal, but not ideal, either.
    • There are a few quirks with GatsbyJS integration, etc, but these issues are being fixed and improved upon very quickly.
    • A minor gripe, but Contentful does not have a way to organize fields within an entry. Entries with many fields are somewhat tiresome to scroll through.

    • I have no complaints about this software whatsoever. I started using Echosign years ago until Adobe bought them out and tripled the price and cut features. Then, I went to Docusign that was not very user friendly and the customer support is NON-EXISTENT. eSign Genie is wonderful!

    The tool is inexpensive and good value. We don't need a ton of eSign capabilities and this one provides what we need for a low cost given our low volume.

    Usability
    Contentful
    It is a very easy to use and configure application. I find that it is on the user to manage the content after the models have been created, yet I still do not encounter issues finding or creating new components for our site. It is easy to set up and easy to navigate.

    eSign Genie has live chat support virtually twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. They also have phone and email support as well. On the few occasions that I have had to contact support, they were very helpful, knowledgeable, and friendly. It's been a pleasure working with the folks at eSign Genie.

    There is no implementation at all. You just sign up, upload your documents, set up the fields to complete, and you are done!

    Easy to use and much more organized as a single platform versus multi. The layout is clean and easy to read and we don’t have to worry about certain users safe guarding data or content then losing it when they leave the company. It’s a one stop shop for imagery

    Adobe Sign, despite coming from one of the best known brands in software, is the most frustrating and poorly-supported platform I've ever used. HelloSign and PandaDoc are good platforms - although the cost a bit more than eSignGenie, they are ahead on some features (not all)... depending on your exact use case, I'd consider them. However, for my simple use case, eSigngenie is the clear winner!

    Return on Investment
    Contentful
    • Contentful has saved us valuable development time that was previously spent doing deploys for minor content updates.
    • Contentful has helped us maintain consistent documentation, reducing time needed to review for consistency.
    • Can't say we've really experienced any negative ROI impacts from using Contentful, but we've run into some limitations in adding too many content models and the next pricing tier is substantially more expensive.

    • eSign Genie was the most affordable option of all vendors which helped us to stay within our project budget.
    • We were able to purchase a relatively small number of document folders which was more appropriate to our needs than say DocuSign which required something like 1,000 documents minimum.
    • The ease of use of eSign Genie helps us to implement new research studies without having to expend a lot of person hours to set things up.
