What is Conga CLM?

Conga CLM is an end-to-end contract lifecycle management solution built to automate highly complex contracting processes that span geographies, multiple departments, and both buy and sell side contract. It aims to support everyone involved in contracting process, increases contract visibility, and enforces compliance to mitigate risk.

The solution seamlessly connects Conga Sign, and Conga CPQ to unify the complete revenue operations lifecycle. And as an extension of the familiar Salesforce user experience, the vendor further states user adoption is quick, and system training is negligible.

To remove friction in the sales cycle - From request to amendment through renewal, Conga CLM’s self-service and workflow automation allows the user to automate every step of the contract lifecycle.

Built for the most complex contacting processes- Conga CLM handles the most complex processes and was built for enterprise-wide, multi-departmental use. For example, if the contract lifecycle has multiple workflows with multiple reviewers, has highly amended contracts, or needs input from multiple people in multiple departments.

Conga CLM gives the right teams access to the contract process at the right time to expedite contract cycles. Tasks normally reserved for the legal department can be controlled and deployed to the field without risk. And each step of the process can be monitored to keep everyone in the loop.

Ultimately, Conga CLM aims to help to manage complicated enterprise-wide contract lifecycles to mitigate risk, reduce friction and empower business at scale.

CLM is best suited for Medium to Large size corporations, in my opinion. Organizations need to be informed in order to be successful; they must have a team prepared to own and manage the CLM tool once implementation is complete. Great for B2B and B2C. Highly recommend it to those in question about purchasing for their organization.

I have implemented Conga CLM at two companies now, and after the first one I swore I would never use it again. Unfortunately, it seems competitors in the space aren't any better. Conga can do almost anything you tell it to, its the "telling" that is frustrating. In my opinion, implementation is so unnecessarily complicated. Features that should just be toggle-able require intricate setup, and any errors you make in doing so are not made apparently whatsoever, which leads to many a goose chase. The knowledge center for the tool is essentially useless - articles are meandering, hard to search through, and often give instructions for outdated versions. Unless you have an elaborate legal workflow, I would recommend a simpler tool.

Creating agreements and Documents are one of the main use of the Conga CLM. With the simple click of a button, Conga Composer allows Salesforce users to Create, Alter, Automate, and Generate Papers and Quotes. It can also help you choose from a variety of richly structured templates including data from any Salesforce entity.

We recommend using it to make your legal team life easy. Conga Contracts ease the contract creation and negotiation process. Conga contracts help manage all the clauses and we can bundle them with respect to what contract these clauses belong to. All contracts such as NDA, Work made for hire, proposal documents, employment contracts are very easy to work on. Redlines and true-up are the best features to make the negotiation process easy. With the help of conga composer and sign, it performs excellently and solves all business problems.

Fit for contracts/ offer drafting based on selected variables. Not a tool for configuration of the prices, but a workflow based tool for drafts/contracts and approvals. Seamlessly integrated within Salesforce.

It is well suited for serving as a centralized platform for contracts and for generating templates. The interface with MS word does not work well at all since X-author has given several problems creating a not so friendly user experience. It is too complicated to use and third parties do not have good experience/feedback on the same since it creates a number of challenges while editing the document and also, when one has to reconcile the document back into Conga

This tool is well suited for organizations who don't want much customization as most of the things work out of the box, which increases productivity, whereas there are a lot of product-related issues which need constant connection with the Conga support team, thus resulting in more time to deliver the requirements.

If an organization is doing a high volume of sales or supply chain requests, Conga Contracts would be very useful. If the format of these invoices, quotes, etc. happen to be following a format, it's even more compelling of a situation to use Conga Contracts. Low volume or variable format customers may not see the same benefits.

If you have internal staff that can dedicate time to queries and developing the tool for your environment then it could be great. There are many good features about Conga and I always was a fan and had wanted to the relationship to continue. We are leaving for another company because I just couldn't turn the tide early enough and had no support from Conga until the end. We are implementing another tool and will ride out the term of our contract.
