Chose airSlate WorkFlow
HelloSign is the only other products we've used but it does not have the automation we needed. We used it when we were processing fewer digital forms and most others were required by our legal department to be printed and signed.
Chose airSlate WorkFlow
airSlate is cheaper to utilize, and allows for more specified automation. I always worry about the per envelope cost for DocuSign, which is not a factor when utilizing airSlate.

airSlate also notifies us if there is an issue with a bot, whereas we have had people attempt to …
Chose airSlate WorkFlow
I think each one has its purpose and one product can't be everything. airSlate does a great job at being economical for a business while also delivering the software that you need with the ability to make it your own. the support team is also outstanding which is a huge plus.
Chose airSlate WorkFlow
We had been unable to get much attention from DocuSign support/sales when we decided we wanted to connect forms to Salesforce. I stumbled across airSlate on the appExchange, and their sales team was responsive and helpful. I haven't worked in DocuSign myself, but my users tell …

We initially thought airSlate could replace Cognito Forms for our company. However airSlate is missing key features that would allow this. We currently use Cognito Forms to take form entries for clinical samples we receive in the lab and then in bulk are able to ingest new …
Chose airSlate WorkFlow
We've used several other web form applications but none of them add the ease of use as airSlate. Also, none of them integrated with our other tech stack, such as Salesforce.

I never used the actual product other than signing documents
Chose airSlate WorkFlow
We chose airSlate over docusign because it allowed us to customize more things. DocuSign was getting pricier and allowed less customization or tools for the same price airSlate was offering. airSlate also gave us a non profit discount and allowed for us to be HIPAA compliant …

One of the other platforms we used was terribly hard to configure correctly- we spent many many hours on processes that never worked correctly- and two of these platforms did not have transparency in what they said they could do and what they could really do. And the feature …

airSlate is cheaper and the automations save a lot of time. The only issue with airSlate is you can not share document links.

Adobe is extremely easy to use for forms that have to be built every time - like tax returns - even when it sometimes thinks every box needs data that is already there from the tax program. It requires no account creation or other hoops for the signer to complete a signature …

airSlate covers some processes that are not available yet in power automate, or have an additional cost / third party reliance. airSlate also has the ability to produce solutions in a sometimes faster manner than power automate, depending on the complexity. Plus, the licensing …

With airSlate, you are not bound to just one type of tool like you are with Google forms. airSlate allows you to link to other tools, other than Google to make the forms work even better.
Chose airSlate WorkFlow
While maintaining similar features as alternative products, airSlate is easier to use and less expensive. It is quicker to setup and creating new forms and workflows are easy with the help of built-in templates. I find the user interface friendly and well designed compared to …
Chose airSlate WorkFlow
Kissflow was overly complex and costly. Forms On Fire didn't seem to have the support we needed. We already subscribe to Adobe Sign, but was a hassle to figure out how to construct a cascading set of authorisations that pulled data from a sheet according to user input.
Chose airSlate WorkFlow
Tallyfy is a wonderfully robust solution but airSlate further connected the dots for us with the full integration to the electronic signature aspect of our needs. I'm not sure where Tallyfy stands currently on that front.

I've used PandaDoc before; it is nowhere near as good as Conga Composer in terms of usability and end-user experience. Conga is much more valuable and business-oriented.

Can have more control with Aspose by using more code to dynamically generate the document to your exact needs.

Conga Composer works well with Conga Grid.

S-docs allows for much more dynamic flexibility. Additionally, S-Docs template maintenance is substantially easier than Conga Composer. Conga requires about 6 steps to make an update to your template. S-Docs has a simple template builder that makes the process substantially …

CPQ is more customizable and native to Salesforce, but it's extremely difficult to set up and maintain. The Conga Composer configuration is much simpler and quicker to implement.

I just wish that Docusign and Conga Document Generation could work together after the quote is generated to send out for signature.

Conga Composer is highly versatile as this can be easily integrated with Salesforce and other Conga products. Other products either lack integration or lack user experience but Conga Composer has provided both along with great integration which reduces manual tasks which was …

Likelihood to Recommend
Well suited for forms that need to be signed by one or more people (ie multiple levels of managers). Great to keep all completed slates in one section so that you can find what was completed and where. It does get a bit tricky with routing when it's a bit of back and forth.

From my experience, Conga Composer is particularly well-suited for generating documents, such as quotes and contracts, directly from Salesforce. It saves us a great deal of time, which is remarkably beneficial for companies with sales teams. Not suitable for companies lacking significant Salesforce expertise or administrative support.

Pros
  • The airSlate interface is very easy to use. Creating new forms or updating existing ones is way less challenging than other similar platforms.
  • airSlate integration with other platforms is straightforward and doesn't require special unique code.
  • The look and feel of the user interface is clean and inviting.

  • It allows us to generate multiple documents at once using batch generation. This simple automation saves a lot of time for our team.
  • Its very user friendly. Even a newbie can simply generate document by clicking a button once this is setup by the admin.
  • Integrate Conga Sign with Conga Composer and it will automatically sent for e- signature once generated saving lot of time. we previously had to wait a lot for the signature.

Cons
  • Field mapping to Salesforce is precise but a bit fidgety. Would be nice to be able to do it on the form builder instead of in a separate bot.
  • Fillable fields in PDFs are ugly. It would be nice if font size/spacing/alignment actually matched the document.
Read full review
  • Not very intuitive. Once you know the system it's fine but there is a learning curve
  • I would like to see training opportunities on features that I am not using or aware of
  • I am sure I am only using about 3% of it's full potential

I give this rating because I am hopeful the functions I would like will be added in the near future.

We most likely will renew conga because of it's strong salesforce integration and we're so engrained into it with all of our different brands and products/services. It would take a lot of time, money and resources to switch to something else.

Usability
Starting with a template it is easy to see how parts of the workflow are connected and make changes that will customise the product for your own use case. In our situation, rather than starting from scratch, our form was working within hours of joining the trial version. Several hours of tweaks lead us to a form that is better than the tool it was replacing and we are saving real man-hours with a minimum investment of time and money. Service has been exceptional.

It's a fairly simple tool to integrate into your current business structure. When we've had issues, we were able to resolve them extremely quickly. The users click a button and it can bring in all the quote lines, and our credit application seamlessly into our tool. I'd definitely recommend it to other colleagues

Support Rating
I have reached out to airSlate support a number of times during setup and after. The platform includes a built-in support chat that is very convenient and fast. I'm able to get the answers I need is less time than it takes with any other software I use. And I don't need to pick up a phone or write an email and wait for a response. They support staff is very knowledgeable and accommodating

As a conga parter we have created more than 50+ cases with conga support and many times we have got the answers on the chat support itself. A very effective knowledge base and conga university give you all the study material to enhance your product knowledge. Conga support has been very effective and has always responded quickly to questions and issues

We have not been able to find an offering that allowed for the level of customization or could handle the complexity of the solutions we've built using Conga's products. We selected Conga originally as it was recommended at the time (2012) and there weren't any better alternatives - but we have looked recently and still can't find anything better.
