eSignly vs. PandaDoc

I used the software to sign the documents digitally and share them with my clients for safety and security.

As an alternative to other electronic signature mechanisms, I can't recommend PandaDoc more highly. It works, plain and simple. It is less costly - by a lot - than most alternatives, stores signed documents online for easy access, is simple to use by both our staff and our clients, and makes our lives far easier.

• Digital Signing Process
• Sharing Legal Documents Safely
• Saving Signature for Quick Response

• PandaDoc allows our team to create and send detailed sales proposals and quotes with the use of their templates.
• The use of collaborative editing is also beneficial because our team is able to have multiple users edit and comment on documents simultaneously.
• Document tracking is useful because we are able to receive real-time notifications and updates on the proposal process.

• The automatic snapping of added fields in templates could be toggleable to more easily place fields where they need to be
• When fields are duplicated, the generated Field IDs can get long (e.g. Text_1, Text_1_1, Text_1_1_1, etc)
• Loading screens are sometimes long

The reason I gave it a rating of 7 is because it's probable, but not for sure. This is because there are a few little things we don't love about pandadoc. Mostly that there is not conditional logic such as: they must either fill this field out OR this one. Also it's a little pricey. But we'll probably stay because it's good enough and a pain to switch to something new

Once you get the hang of it, it's very easy to use. There can be a slightly steep learning curve to get fully in on the system. The new editor v2 has really improved usability and allows us to collaborate on documents simultaneously. Once the templates and library items are set up, a new document, whether it be a sales or HR document, takes very little time to complete.

We haven't had any real issues regarding downtime as of yet.

The documents load quickly for the most part but sometimes if there are larger documents with a high number of variables it could take a bit longer to get the document to show up. Most of the time the document comes on the screen relatively quickly allowing for quick access to documents to be edited and sent out.

Recently I could not upload a pdf to a contract - support was very responsive and easy to work with. They got back to me the next day with an apparent fix - however when I opened the document nothing had changed. I then could not respond to the rep who was helping me because it was a "no-reply address", the problem still has not been solved and we had to make alternate arrangements to get this to the client. Never had it happen before and was only with this one contract.

Implementation was before the time I was here at Riafox, however, support has been great in assisting to merge spaces and upgrade to 2.0 Editor.

As compared to other products, the API of eSignly quickly loads the saved signatures for better and fast tasks processing.

We used Dropbox back when it was still HelloSign. At the time, new templates were very hard to create. We had to upload a PDF and then add the fields from there. With PandaDoc, we are able to drag and drop the text, images, logos, and fields we need easily. This has saved our team an immense amount of time.

It's scalable

• Quick Business Tasks Processing
• Improved Productivity

• It has helped increase our sales productivity by allowing us to get contracts back more quickly.
• Has helped with employee efficiency in contract writing.
• It has helped our company find contract writing mistakes before they get to our clients and cause confusion.
• The one negative would be the increase in costs associated with using this software, which seems to increase each year at renewal.
