Conga CLM

There are many things which we like about the product. The following are a couple of them. 1. Contract type and versatility:- Conga CLM offers a great tool to manage contracts by giving the feasibility to choose from different agreement types like NDA, MSA, etc. This allows you to add your own contract types as well that fit best with your business use cases. This also allows you to define your own custom layouts for these agreement types that help you display the fields that serve the best purpose for your organization. 2. Clause and Template Management:- Conga CLM helps template and contract managers to manage their templates and clauses to ensure risk mitigation, proper auditing and versioning. Conga CLM offers support for multiple language templates for different languages and locales, supporting global business needs. It offers a centralized clause library to store your clauses in a single, searchable repository. This ensures everyone uses the latest approved language and reduces any risk of outdated or non-compliant terms being used in contracts. 3. Smooth Integrations: Conga CLM offers seamless integration with Salesforce, Office365, Power BI, different eSignature solutions and other enterprise systems. APIs and connectors allow users to work with their preferred tools and keep contract data synchronized across platforms. Detailed audit logs track every change, providing transparency and accountability throughout the contract lifecycle.

Version control functionality, clause library, ability to create self-serve vs legal assisted workflows based on entered criteria.

I like Conga CLM the most for its Document Generation and Template Management functionality. It provide Consistancy and Complience in our Contract Lifecycle. Its intregration with Salrforce and X-autthor (Word Add-in) is providing us verity of features which helps us to achieve our CLM life cycle usecases. Also, the integration with other signature tools like AdobeSign and DocuSign is smooth and helpful!

1. Sometimes the implementation phase can be challenging when you are a partner involved, but it often becomes smoother over time. 2. Sometimes documentation is lacking in some areas, but it is good that Conga offers great support that compensates the occasional documentation gaps and proactively works with internal teams to bridge the gaps in the documentation itself.

Lack of consistent resources involved, resulting in significant gaps in knowledge, which often leads to duplicative or conflicting designs (i.e., a new custom object is build to address a need rather than leveraging a previously custom-built object due to the current resource not knowing about or fully understanding the original object). Also, the tool for template management (X-Author for Templates) and for redlining contracts (X-Author for Contracts) is very glitchy and not effectively built.

1) Conga has come up with a new X-author tool (XAC Advance) and there are parity gaps between Old X--author (XAC 1.0) and the new one. So, it would be great if Conga can reduce this parity gap. 2) Some complex featues (like fetching more templates on UI for send for review/signature) are not supported yet. I would recommend Conga o Impliment it. 3) Sometime Documentation does not provide clarity about some functilaity. Conga can improve on Documentation Part.
