Ignition vs. Proposable

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.

It is a great solution for small to medium-sized businesses. It is fairly customizable, and their support team has been great to work with us. They have helped us build some custom workflows to push a customer straight to a credit card page once they sign the proposal. This has really helped increase conversions when signing on a new customer.

• 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.

• Very professional
• Easy to navigate and use
• Easy to edit and draw up new proposals

• 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.

• The user interface is not intuitive and you'll need some time to understand where things are.
• The structure of the proposals is sort of rigid and is difficult to create really beautiful documents (unless you are a genius designer).

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.

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.

I didn't choose Proposable over DocuSign, but I did use it at a previous company. Proposable is great for the smaller business and makes the creation and sending of agreements so easy! DocuSign was nice, but it was more complex in my experience and created a bottleneck for our sales team to get approval. I'm sure this was more of our own internal process, but between the two, Proposable was much faster to get what you needed in the form of an agreement. Less time freed up more time for selling!

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

• It has left a great impression on current prospects and clients
• It is the easiest way to draw up terms of an agreement
• It is the best way to track who and when a prospect is viewing a proposal
