Ignition vs. Lone Wolf Authentisign

Ignition (initially called Practice Ignition) performs quite well at proposal building, contract development, tracking and invoicing, payment and collections. The only issues where I see Ignition not being a good fit is in smaller firms that require a more feature rich plan. A perfect example is a solo firm has a limited number of proposals they can activate, and would have to spend extra for additional features like multiple e-signatures.

Because it's built into the ZipForms software it's far easier than having to personally load most signatures if other software is used which isn't integrated automatically.

• Automatic Payments: You set up a proposal to collect payments once and you don't have to worry about bugging the client for payment every month.
• Amazing support: I have always received answers from the support team within the same day. They are very patient and understanding.
• Integrates with Xero: It integrates with our accounting software, making reporting faster.

• Fairly easy for the end user to click and sign
• Signature lines, initials, and dates are often automatically populated
• The software keep an archive of signed documents

• The charge back process is messy and not transparent enough. When there is a charge back, PI deducts the amount from other payments settling on the same day, and does not provide a break down of the amounts. This makes it impossible to track without getting help from support.
• PI should send email alerts monthly (or at some interval determined by user) for expiring engagements.
• PI should allow the client to make service selections -- we should be able to offer 2 or 3 options under a service offering, and the client chooses and sees the impact on monthly/annual pricing.
• PI should allow for more than 2 templates (Business and Individual).
• PI should integrate with Jet Pack Workflow to automate the creation of new jobs once a proposal is approved.

• Doesn't always have auto-populated initial, signature, and date boxes
• Sometimes the software is slow or non-responsive
• Sometimes clients complain about error messages they get or don't seem to figure out they need to click somewhere to "finish signing"

The Ignition product is quite usable for the average user. The app has preloaded templates that can get even new-hires to navigate the software and set up proposals. The only area where I see the Ignition product lacking is the additional fees smaller firms may have to pay to get the full feature advantages of the product.

it can do pretty much everything I need - just can be slow and cumbersome at times between pages.

I've only had to reach out to customer service a couple of times for login issues, but they were helpful.

You aren't able to customize the design of the proposal, but it surpases everything we have ever tried. It's easy to use and quick to learn.

ZipLogix is a bit slower and more cumbersome of an interface than Adobe Sign, but again, automatic integration is key. Annoying that on Adobe Sign when adding a signature field it doesn't automatically add a date signed field, whereas ZipLogix DIgital Ink 1.0 does, but not 2.0

• We have reduced our A/R by 60% and expect to completely eliminate A/R by the end of this year.

• Biggest advantage is the speed of use since already integrated into ZipForms
• Free as a part of ZipForms
