Considered Both Products

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 …
Chose airSlate WorkFlow
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.
Chose airSlate WorkFlow
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 …
Chose airSlate WorkFlow
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 …
Chose airSlate WorkFlow
airSlate is cheaper and the automations save a lot of time. The only issue with airSlate is you can not share document links.
Chose airSlate WorkFlow
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 …
Chose airSlate WorkFlow
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 …
Chose airSlate WorkFlow
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.
Mitratech HotDocs
Chose Mitratech HotDocs
Hotdocs as compared to legito is better because of many reasons. The subscription pricing of Legito is too expensive as compared to Hotdocs. Secondly, it doesn't integrate well with Microsoft Word as compared to Hotdocs. Thirdly, Legito is only web based where as Hotdocs can be …
Chose Mitratech HotDocs
An attorney in a different area of practice (Wills & Estates) brought this program to our attention after witnessing how we typically drafted documents for these deals. He had come from a financial firm where they used it to create forms for trusts and retirement plans and …
Chose Mitratech HotDocs
There used to be a product called Easysoft but I didn't like it as much - I might look at it again.
Chose Mitratech HotDocs
I haven't evaluated other products. We are so used to HotDocs that it would be difficult for us to switch to something else. We continue to use HotDocs because switching cost is high once you have already started. Be careful before beginning to use this program, as it is hard …
Chose Mitratech HotDocs
HotDocs integrates with all versions of Office, OEM, open license and O365 (as long as it's not too old). I can't think of any direct competitors of HotDocs as it is a very good program. There are other document generation programs out there, but HotDocs is far superior to any …

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.

If you are doing transactional documents, HotDocs is a game-changer. If there are only a few select variables that change while the remainder of the work mostly consists of form language, this is a program that will dramatically increase efficiency. Even the most technical and dense documents can be turned into a template, as long as you are willing to take the time to invest in future time saving. However, if the majority of the work that you are doing is not constantly repeating, this may not be the software for you.

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.

  • HotDocs is difficult to develop new documents as it's as complicated as programming at times. I often have to call for assistance.
  • The tables can be frustrating. It makes it hard to insert between items as you have to make sure it doesn't offset other areas.

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.

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

The support is fine, but make no mistake it is PAID support because you have to purchase it each year in order to keep the updates.

Return on Investment
  • Time saved from having to email or run documents to other people for sign off
  • Time saved from auto-storing documents in the correct place once we get all the bots set up
  • Confidence from a legal standpoint due to the validity of e-signatures and its tracking

  • It makes it easy to fill out the form.
  • I really only use it for the one form, it doesn't do as well with the other forms.
