DocuSign is useful for collecting electronic signatures on isolated documents and packets that are administered separately or integrated into another system. DocuSign is integrated into our onboarding system, Paylocity, which is where the employee completes all onboarding tasks required for employment. Integrating DocuSign with Paylocity allows us to send documents that require more than one signature along with other onboarding tasks, which makes for a less confusing onboarding experience for the worker. DocuSign also allows us to automatically run E-Verify from the integrated Form I-9 Document, which saves us lots of time onboarding each employee.

Cons
DocuSign
  • Increase sending limit for initial plans
  • Faster return for client service requests
  • When correcting a document, no new email is sent for notification of an update. The clients have to go back to the old document, and it feels uncomfortable for them.

  • I personally find the user inferface to be obnoxious and obtuse.
  • When we have issues it is often hard to resolve the problem as there are many variables such as file types, DPI, and scanner setting that combine to make it hard to pinpoint trouble spots.
  • The upgrade process has always been a nightmare for our team. We are not on the latest version now due to this issue.

You get out of something what you put into it. You reap what you sow! If an organization will spend time setting the solution up, dedicating staff to its development and ongoing support, and always keep the end-user in mind during development, you will have one of the most well-received solutions in your organization. So many organizations that I speak with stand up a solution but don't commit someone to its upkeep and development. It is vital that you have the staff to work within the solution on a daily basis.

I am constantly experiencing issues with SpringCM.

This rating is a compromise because I technically have 2 tiers of support.
I go through a re-seller that I give a (10). I send an email and receive acknowledgment within minutes.
For the few times we need to contact Hyland for assistance, it sometimes takes a couple of days to receive a response - and then the first tier might go back and forth a dozen times through email instead of initiating a phone call. And for an advanced issue, they take too long before they forward to an evangelist or someone more knowledgeable that is able to assist. I give that process an (8).

DocuSign CLM has a much improved user experience compared to similar products we have used. The streamlining of templates and traceability through the signing process are huge benefits, and better than competitors. The ability to set up designated templates for different use-case scenarios, and roll out efficient documents for signing, is invaluable, as well as other functions like Bulk Send and PowerForms.

The version of SharePoint we were utilizing was not very practical. We oftentimes had issues with archived documents, where they could be found or opening them all together. It seemed the older the document the harder it was to access when logged into SharePoint. This is critical in our business as we need to behave full access to documentation sent and received for an owner's account.

Return on Investment
DocuSign
  • Positive - has helped us track renewals which allows us to get out of "bad" contracts or renew "good" ones.
  • Negative - we had hoped for it to help us determine which terms and conditions we have agreed to in other contracts. This has made contract review remain a lengthy process.
  • Positive - We are now able to find all of our contracts which has helped us get out of unnecessary contracts (which positively impacts finances).
