    The app is quite versatile - as for me, I've been using it at work for some time and can't say that the problems that I have listed affect the general impression of the platform. Apart from using it at work, DottedSign is also pretty good for personal tasks, if you have to sign something on the go and so on. It's great for keeping track of the entire signing process and making sure everybody is on the same page with the help of reminders and such.

    Slack is ideal for Scrum and agile teams that need continuous communication during sprint planning, daily stand-ups, backlog refinement, testing, and retrospectives. Slack is well-suited for maintaining team knowledge through searchable conversations and dedicated channels, where experienced team members help onboard new QA analysts.

    Pros
    Kdan Mobile Software Ltd.
    • Of course DottedSign isn't the first one to show how convenient e-signatures are, but in my opinion the creators really nailed it because it's both easy-to-use and also pleasant to work with due to the nice and intuitive interface and truly helpful tools.
    • Another point I'd like to make is the reminders feature is really nice - anyone who hasn't yet signed their part gets an email notification to speed them along.
    • Another thing that I like that there's no need to contact customer support to figure anything out - just download the app and get going.

    • Customer issues: Threads feature allows us to group a particular issue in a single thread and discuss within that thread. I can use the thread link to embed in JIRA ticket for tracking progress in JIRA (which is our details engineering tracking system).
    • Ability to add folder to Slack channel helps keep important information, documents easily accessible. e.g., we use this to keep a "ramp up" folder that can be used by any new joiner.
    • Global search is effective when I forget which group a particular message was in.

    Cons
    Kdan Mobile Software Ltd.
    • Well, the synchronization feature isn't perfect - when you log in into your account on the browser version, for instance, you need to wait for a couple of minutes to load a file that you have already loaded in the app.
    • Apart from that, the platform doesn't allow you to rotate blank windows to add a date or signatures and sometimes documents are scanned upside down, and you have to edit them subsequently, which is time consuming.

    • Would love a better integration with GitHub. For example, notifications when your PR is updated, when review is requested, @-mention in comments, etc.
    • Improved "Later" tab, for example the ability to create to-do lists or making the "Later" tab into a more powerful to-do list (annotate items with notes)
    • More powerful integrations, e.g. Google Calendar could render a calendar view within Slack, rather than sending the daily schedule

    To be more transparent, I give 10 because Slack serves our collaboration needs. It provide us a good platform for team communication relaying important update within the company, it has even mobile app where you can install in your phone to monitor any updates within that team that needs your immediate attention and intervention.

    Slack has good usability. Devs that are not familiar with the platform are able to jump into conversations and start sharing code and links within just minutes. Non developers are also able to understand the layout such as the Project Managers that are keeping the projects on track. We have not seen any tickets where employees are having trouble understanding Slack.

    Yes, the app works 24/7. I don't even recall having any period that we could not use since the implementation. Even the maintenance periods are barely noticeable and our work is not impacted by it when it happens.

    Slack is a soft app, we don't have many issues with it. I recall one or two people complaining about something during our usage period, but I didn't have a bad experience. When the app is slow, usually the problem is with my computer or my internet. The app works just fine.

    Whenever I've had to troubleshoot an issue with Slack (which, to be honest, has not happened very often), their online documentation has been easy to locate, easy to understand, and effective in resolving my issue. Slack's ever-growing popularity also means that there's a large community of practice out there that can be depended upon.

    eversign wasn't quite as good because of how the interface was designed. I don't think that for a software with such simple features the interface should be so piled on. While DottedSign's interface is one of its strongest features.

    I like Slack better than ClickUp, because I would spend 30-60 minutes a day updating my ClickUp tasks. The way ClickUp was used was very micromanaging. I billed by the hour, so I was willing to put in the time to alert the boss what tasks I was working on.
    One of my jobs used Hive - I mostly just ran it in the background in case anyone messaged me. I did not use it often.

    Return on Investment
    Kdan Mobile Software Ltd.
    • I think after we started using DottedSign at our company, we're achieving our goals a little faster due to less time being spent on traveling to meet clients and so on, and with the process being more streamlined, it's easier. to pay attention to other parts that might have been neglected before.
    • We got a bit more new clients in the last quarter, but it might be due to different reasons, but I think DottedSign played a part.
    • Also, having all the newly signed contracts digitized and available on the cloud gives us a peace of mind.
