Automation has transformed document workflows and has eliminated manual data entry errors
Conga Composer is a very good product and it heavily excels in any kind of complex and high-volume scenarios. It is very well-versed with handling dynamic content such as charts, nested tables, global currencies, and it can execute asynchronously, putting it well ahead of a basic PDF generator. It also offers many additional features. The user interface is my personal favorite, as the interface is largely very developer-friendly, and it is a custom front end we built. Additionally, it utilizes familiar tools like Microsoft Word and Excel. Setting it up involves a complex API deployment and JSON payloads. Initially, it requires some technical heavy lifting compared to drag-and-drop and no-code tools. If you are from a technical background, then it is not a challenge. My personal favorite features are headless execution, which helps us to trigger the document generation in the background from the buttons, workflows, or external systems without requiring the user to navigate through an interface. This gives us all the options within a single click from the UI. The second feature I love is that it supports multi-format. Generating a Word, PDF, Excel, PowerPoint, and HTML can be done from a single source and a single, central data source. The third feature which I love is that the REST API is not locked exclusively into Salesforce. It can ingest JSON data from virtually any ERP or system of record. Additionally, the seamless add-on to the sign API has helped us to create an uninterrupted, automated contract cycle.

Automation has saved thousands of hours by processing bulk data and managing emails efficiently
The best features SS&C Blue Prism offers include powerful automation, easy-to-use process flow, and excellent integration capabilities. Data manipulation and handling is very easy and user-friendly. It is very secure, especially in handling sensitive data such as credentials. One of my favorite features of SS&C Blue Prism that stands out is its seamless integration with various systems. This includes features such as load balancing, encryption, audit, and spying modes. The capability proves to be a significant advantage when automating tasks across different applications and platforms, which saves a lot of time. The email handling feature is spot-on, and we are able to automate these tasks easily, saving a lot of time. SS&C Blue Prism has positively impacted my organization as it can easily handle a large amount of data, being very scalable. It also saves time through automation of email. It saved a considerable amount of time, more than 5,000 hours of manual work so far. It saved a considerable amount of money as well. The costing metrics will improve largely. It also requires very little coding. Instead of hiring new people trained in a specific tool, we were able to manage this with the existing workforce with a few weekend classes.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Conga Composer offers extensive customization and flexibility, that allows us to create documents that perfectly align with our branding and specific business requirements."
"What I like about Conga Composer is that it's much easier than Salesforce's native templating. It's simple to add merge fields, write queries to pull data and access up to four levels of related objects. This makes it very comfortable to get all the needed data into templates."
"As an implementer, what stands out for me is that I've been on it for more than ten years now, so I kind of saw some change in the UI, and it's very nice."
"Conga Composer helps to create documents faster and saves time."
"The declarative features and automatic API selections are great as they help with pre-built documentation, query generation, template generation, and articulation."
"The main benefits I have seen from using Conga Composer are that while Salesforce provides features to build documents or cases that function as quote summaries, they have limitations, and after choosing Conga, we discovered that it already has many features that enable us to easily build complex templates and it works perfectly with our business use cases, which is why we selected it."
"I find the Conga email template creation and the document template creation features very useful."
"I like that Conga Composer allows for the generation of PDFs according to specific requirements by creating templates and pulling all the information added into those fields."
"We have a lot of customer requests on a daily basis for different use cases, and we have different processes for that."
"I find the design studio, where I can build the automation, and the control room feature, which allows me to run and monitor the automation, to be the most useful."
"We have converted manual processes into RPA processes, leading to significant time, money, and quality savings."
"Some important features include the language capabilities, which are crucial since RPA has to read the documents provided by the customer."
"The key feature of SS&C that I find valuable is the general workflow visibility."
 

Cons

"It would be better to have a custom button that automatically sends a document to the client's email and sends it for a signature with a single click."
"One downside of Conga Composer is that it requires integration with other tools for the signing process. Apart from that, I find nothing major to be improved."
"The biggest area where Conga needs improvement is its documentation. The documentation is good but not up to par with other platforms like Salesforce, which has extensive documentation and a helpful community."
"I had only one minor issue, which was resolved quickly due to their prompt assistance."
"Conga Composer is somewhat slow."
"Conga is getting more and more expensive."
"If there could be a preview option available directly in the application for testing templates instead of having to download and test them manually, it would save time."
"We have not been using Conga Composer extensively or deeply to look for improvements."
"Blue Prism is more costly than UiPath in terms of robotic licenses and orchestrators."
"Regarding improvements, I perceive that the Desktop automation needs enhancements, especially in input stages for dropdown options."
"I noticed that it lacks the ability to automatically record the process steps like some of its competitors."
"There is a need for improved integration with external systems in SS&C."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's not cheap, but it's not overly expensive either."
"Regarding pricing, I believe it’s around fifty dollars, but I’m not entirely sure. Overall, I find the pricing reasonable and am quite satisfied with the product. The value we get from it justifies the cost, as it requires minimal maintenance and is straightforward to use. The functionality it provides aligns well with the investment."
"I think the tool costs around six dollars per user."
