Docmosis vs. Formstack Documents

With customer support and flexibility in handling specific, unique scenarios, they are able to provide solutions quickly. There are no scenarios currently which we are aware that it may be less appropriate. If you have very large documents you should review architecture choices on how best to optimize your performance using Docmosis.

[Formstack Documents (formerly WebMerge) is] well suited for a mid-size organization that has multiple data inputs and needs to provide structure and professional document generation. As helpful as it is, the cost would prevent smaller businesses from realizing the cost savings that a larger one will.

• Docmosis is excellent at support and will work with you to find a solution for your particular use cases.
• During our evaluation process, they were very helpful to get us up and running and we were one of the first docker based implementations so they worked quickly to get our infrastructure support setup.
• Their solution is very flexible and allows several ways to allow support dynamic document generation at a very good value.

• It consumes PDF applications and prefills them from a database or form. If your file is not in PDF form it can work from applications such as Microsoft Word.
• It has logic that enables you to bundle applications based on criteria. For example you could bundle state specific applications with a new business applications if a state criteria is met.
• It has several integrations partners in the fields of E Signature and Forms.

• There isn't much in terms of what could be improved, but the only challenge we have which is in terms of future scaling and isn't a limitation, but just something we're trying to be cognizant of as it might increase our infrastructure costs. Since we have large numbers of multi-nested document templates, and large documents. Although Docmosis did help us reduce the time to generate our largest documents by a large percentage. This is likely an area of improvement that all providers would need to address.

• If you don't know anything about these types of programs, it can be hard to learn it at first. There is a bit of a learning curve, especially when you get into the designer. It looks like MS Word, but not as expansive.
• Lingo. There have been times I've delved into the more complicated pieces and the lingo used wasn't easy to understand. This hasn't occurred much.
• I would like it to keep up with current upgrades for MS Office, but I also realize they can't be trying to match other companies while trying to maintain the innovation of their own.

Ease of use, nice functionality that saves time

They always respond to support and provide resolutions quickly and even provide the ability for new features/support to be incorporated very cooperatively by help with with alternate solutions as necessary.

Support was always readily available and happy to assist whenever I had a question or needed help. Great experience every time.

We also evaluated Winward Studios solution along with HotDocs, we selected Docmosis for the following reasons:

1. We were using docker very early on, so they were very cooperative in helping us get our infrastructure working during the early evaluation phases, and went above and beyond to help with some of our template processing efforts.

2. When we were looking to improve the processing speed due to our complex large number of dynamically inserted templates, Docmosis was helpful with ideas. We were able to improve speed quite significantly with Docmosis' help by managing some dynamic aspects of our templates and including them inline vs. having them loaded dynamically.

Formstack Documents [(formerly WebMerge)] has better overall integration with third-party integrators at a very competitive cost. That allowed us to have a broader range of choices than something like SharePoint at a better cost point than something like DocuSign. It was simple to implement, flexible, and gave us what we needed without a lot of extra fuss.

• Very strong impact on ROI as it's value has been able to scale with our user growth.

• Formstack was an absolute necessity for us and during our busy season, it saves our client team approx. 15 hours a week. This is MASSIVE and allows us to take on more clients.
• Formstack wasn't crazy intensive to set up timewise, but it took a team member a day to set up and a few days of testing. Once it was set, we have no reason to look back unless we want to add something on.
