HotDocs was very inefficient, not as user-friendly, had a more convoluted interface, and it took a lot of time to go back and edit previously drafted documents.

Bloomberg LawLexis for Microsoft Office
Likelihood to Recommend
It's best suited for in-house counsel that wishes to stay on top of recent case law and labor decisions. It's also great for labor & employment attorneys working at firms to have a high level overview of key issues. The chart builder and Daily Labor Report are the best resources for in-house counsel. The content is easy to flip to in-house client teams and department heads along with individual analysis and suggested action items.

Using Lexis for Microsoft Office in our office was a game changer. We were previously using another form generation program, and it was glitchy, operated exclusively on our server which caused lag, and it took a lot of time to edit the forms for any changes. Lexis for Microsoft Office streamlined everything and because it is cloud-based, it operates smoothly and efficiently. The interface is extremely user-friendly, and we've noticed that producing forms are way more efficient now.
