What was our ROI?
I have seen a return on investment from the money saved by reducing the time to generate contracts and the back-and-forth calls to clients by sending contracts.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
Before choosing Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM), the competition included only Salesforce Revenue Cloud, and we did not have any other Conga CLM product. The functionality provided by Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) does not match that of Salesforce Revenue Cloud. For that reason, we chose Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM).
What other advice do I have?
Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) stands out to me because I have seen different products of Salesforce as well, but nothing stands out as much as Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM). I have tried Salesforce Revenue Cloud as well, but it does not have as many features as Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) has.
I have not used Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) AI capabilities regarding governance and security. I have not used Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) regarding its accuracy and reliability of output.

Collaboration for contract reviews has become faster but onboarding and reliability still need work
Pros and Cons
- "The overall process of contract review, which used to take at least two weeks, has reduced to a couple of days now, including all the communications and internal discussions, representing a huge improvement."
- "I chose a rating of seven out of ten because there are many areas for improvement for Conga; it is not a complete solution yet."
What is our primary use case?
Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) is used for contracts and contract cycles, specifically with sales projects.
The main use case involves integration with Salesforce. The sales team uses Conga Salesforce, and whenever they need to generate contracts from Salesforce, they use Conga Composer. Depending on the various information captured in Salesforce, Conga Composer generates contracts, which speeds up the process of contract creation. This has been helpful, with the legal team, lawyers, and attorneys assisting in formulating the contracts, creating a strong group of users utilizing Conga Composer.
The sales and legal teams collaborate on various contracts to ensure that all activities are properly captured in the system.
What is most valuable?
Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) offers several best features, including the streamlined integration. The seamless integration within Salesforce makes the job much easier. In terms of layout flexibility, complex table documentations are faster to read and review in Conga Composer, and bringing different objects into the document, including related objects and fields, is also a great feature. The e-sign signing feature is very helpful, and integration with other external tools beyond Salesforce enhances Conga.
The most useful feature is Salesforce integration and bringing data seamlessly within the system, making the job for the sales and legal teams much easier. This is the most important aspect.
Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) has impacted my organization positively, specifically in terms of the contract lifecycle. Before Conga Composer was implemented, there was a lot of manual back-and-forth discussions and email communication happening. I tried a couple of other CLM solutions, but they did not work. Conga Composer brings both the legal and sales teams together on the same platform, helping us review contracts much faster. Changes are much faster, and publishing the documents is much faster. The overall process of contract review, which used to take at least two weeks, has reduced to a couple of days now, including all the communications and internal discussions, representing a huge improvement. The gap between the legal and sales teams has been reduced drastically, leading to much more collaborative efforts and discussions within these two teams.
What needs improvement?
At times, Conga Composer gets stuck and has loading issues, being slow in loading and sometimes processing documents, and this needs to be improved. Too many API callouts happen when uploading any document into Conga, and in the legacy or previous versions, URL hacking was quite easy in Conga. Onboarding new resources on Conga is very difficult due to the documentation and knowledge articles not being that great. Additionally, a hard governance limit needs improvement, and authenticity and security are areas of concern that require attention.
I chose a rating of seven out of ten because there are many areas for improvement for Conga; it is not a complete solution yet. With the great seamless integration, it still has several open areas, and the product lacks stability in many aspects. The areas for improvement are significant and need to be addressed; once it is stable, I believe it will be one of the most competitive products.
The accuracy and reliability of output in Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) are improving slowly and steadily; however, it depends on the usage of the AI. The libraries and clauses still need improvement, and I would say the document processing, especially when uploading a set of documents, presents challenges for the AI. It is still an in-progress model, and it is too early to judge; it has not been completely tested.
For how long have I used the solution?
Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) has been used for around three to four years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) is stable in my experience, but it still needs improvement.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Scalability is good, and I do not have a challenge when increasing the number of users.
How are customer service and support?
Customer support is not good.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
Earlier, OpenText was used, but there were challenges with seamless integration with Salesforce. When attempting to expand and add more features to these tools, it was very difficult to introduce those features.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The overall initial investment for Conga is high, which takes a hit. Additionally, the licensing and support level is a bit excessive. Moreover, security is one of the areas that needs to be improved.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
Other options were evaluated before choosing Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM).
What other advice do I have?
Contract volume has increased over the period, with at least a ten to fifteen percent increase in the contract review process, and I was able to complete more contracts compared to the previous period.
The governance and security of Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) are fine; it utilizes existing core models, and there has been good improvement in that area. However, regarding security, it still has the same standard vulnerabilities that any AI possesses, so I do not have a better view on this.
I would definitely advise others looking into using Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) to follow the best practices. Before implementing, ensure that the team has proper knowledge of Conga applications; I recommend implementing thorough training or cross-training for the users. Start with integrating Conga Composer with the Salesforce system while ensuring that unnecessary workflow rules or automations are not introduced. Finally, I recommend performing thorough testing on your end. I provided a rating of seven out of ten for this solution.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

Advanced pricing workflows have streamlined discount management and support complex integrations
Pros and Cons
- "The main benefits I have seen from using Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) are that we use it as a discount platform in a huge project for different customers or accounts across the world."
- "Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) has too much customization, making it not that easy to scale it up and scale it out."
What is our primary use case?
In our current project, we use Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) as a pricing model, and it is quite effective. It is helpful for us, similar to CPQ, as it redirects pricing to the CPQ from CLM.
We first make an agreement, and then we link those agreements for different accounts. If this is going to affect the pricing for the CPQ to that account member, then we use those accounts as members. After that, we can consider it as a product. If we are selling that product to that account, it will apply discounts such as tier one, tier two, or tier three. We are using it as a pricing platform, not the contract we made for a customer.
The main benefits I have seen from using Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) are that we use it as a discount platform in a huge project for different customers or accounts across the world. It helps us manage discounts directly set in the system, picking those prices from a contract price list and not the country price list. CPQ and CLM are interlinked. As per making contracts, we are not currently using Conga, but the Conga team proposed to use the contract, and we are planning to move fully forward with Conga.
What is most valuable?
What I appreciate about Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) is that it offers multiple customization options that we can tailor to our needs. It can be integrated with various tools, such as multiple signature platforms, which is quite good. However, I have worked more often on CPQ over the past two years.
The intuitive interface of Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) has helped reduce our administrative overhead by providing us five days of training, around eight hours per day, and you can customize it accordingly. If you want it for four hours, they will guide you on how to use this platform, and after that, they administer an exam. Learning those functionalities is quite good, but it is also quite complicated because it has multiple customization options.
The analytics tools of Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) are good, and you can see it on the home page as well.
What needs improvement?
Regarding what I would improve in Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM), from my technical understanding, there is improvement criteria everywhere, but currently, we can achieve whatever we want. They are implementing other things and improving as well, and I do not recall any issue we have faced right now.
Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) can be improved in every system or ERP. While we are not facing any issues currently, there might be some sticking points at some stages, but that is primarily due to user awareness. Waiting for the time to complete transactions helps it run fine.
In terms of specific features missing in Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM), the standard process is fine. However, we can enhance more customization, implement signature steps, or allow direct signing within the CLM tool. Negotiation can also be improved. However, it is working fine currently.
The complexity of customization in Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) alongside the mentioned sync issues could be improved. However, the syncing issue primarily stems from different integrations such as SAP. While using SAP as an order or contract tool or integrating other tools for signing, there may be some slowness, but the templates and overall customizability are fine. Conga's customization is greater than many other CLM tools, so my assessment remains a nine.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been working with Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) for around three years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Regarding stability, I might experience downtime on weekends but not often, and while there may be some glitches or issues, they do not usually arise from Conga's side. Sometimes users create issues by doing something wrong.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) has too much customization, making it not that easy to scale it up and scale it out.
How are customer service and support?
I connect daily with the technical support team as part of CPQ, not the CLM, since some users may increase the field size or data. We will connect with the Conga technical support team and need to purchase that support package to access their assistance.
On a scale of one to ten, I would rate the technical support team as a nine. While complex issues might take time, their service is good and they are easily reachable.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
Prior to adopting Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM), I only trained in Conga CLM and CPQ. I have not used any other ERP. There are many tools for contract management, but Conga is one of them.
What other advice do I have?
When discussing the negotiation tools within Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM), we make a CFD template through X-Author, which is also presented by Conga. Then we send that file, and whatever the user changes—either those fields, values, or amounts—they send it back to us. We can accept those changes or negotiate if needed.
Currently, in our project, we are integrating Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) through multiple tools such as OT OpenText and SAP, ABAP, HANA. We are using APIs, and it can be integrated anywhere as I know.
Given my experience with Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM), I would advise organizations considering using it to understand that we use it mainly for pricing, which might be complicated. No other project in my company uses Conga CLM in that way, but Conga handles it nicely. I would rate this product an overall 8.5 out of 10.

Centralized contract workflows have improved turnaround time but still need simpler setup and reporting
Pros and Cons
- "Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) has a very positive impact on our organization, especially in terms of efficiency and visibility."
- "One challenge is the initial setup and configuration, especially for complex workflows and approval hierarchies."
What is our primary use case?
My main use case for Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) starts from contract creation and approval workflow. In the past, I have used Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) to generate contracts from pre-approved templates. When a sales deal is finalized, I create the contract using standardized clauses, which reduces manual drafting. Then I route through automated approval workflows, which includes legal, finance, and management, so everything moves quickly without back and forth emails. This helps us cut down contract turnaround time significantly.
How has it helped my organization?
Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) has a very positive impact on our organization, especially in terms of efficiency and visibility. One of the biggest improvements is in contract turnaround time, which we are able to reduce significantly by automating approvals and using standardized templates. It also improves compliance since all contracts are created using pre-approved clauses, which reduces legal risk and inconsistency. From a visibility standpoint, having a centralized repository and dashboards allows us to track contract status in real-time and identify bottlenecks. In terms of metrics, we see roughly a 30-40% reduction in contract processing time and fewer delays due to manual follow-ups. Overall, it helps us close deals faster and operate more efficiently.
What is most valuable?
The best features of Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) are the centralized repository of all contracts and legal languages that improve efficiency, consistency, and visibility. The templates and clause library are extremely valuable as they allow us to generate contracts quickly using pre-approved language, which reduces legal risk and saves time. Another feature is the automated approval workflows because they streamline the entire review process and ensure contracts reach the right stakeholders without manual follow-ups.
I find that the automated approval workflows in Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) definitely make things easier for our team. They reduce manual follow-ups and email chains by automatically routing contracts to the right stakeholders such as legal and finance, which speeds up turnaround time and improves visibility. That said, there are some initial challenges. Setting up the workflows requires careful configuration, especially for complex approval hierarchies. We also have to fine-tune conditions to avoid bottlenecks, for example, making sure approvals do not get stuck if someone is unavailable. But once we optimize the process, it becomes much more efficient and reliable.
In addition to the core workflow, one thing I find valuable in Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) is how everything is centralized. It is not just about creating and approving contracts, it is also about having a single source of truth where all contract data, versions, and communications are tracked.
What needs improvement?
Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) is a powerful tool, but there are a few areas where it could be improved. One challenge is the initial setup and configuration, especially for complex workflows and approval hierarchies. It can require significant time and expertise to get everything aligned with the business process. Another area is the user interface, which can feel a bit complex for new users. We also find that reporting and customization could be more flexible. While standard reports are used, creating highly tailored reports sometimes requires additional effort or technical support. The main areas for improvement would be the initial setup complexity, a steeper learning curve for new users, and more flexible reporting. But overall, it is a strong platform once configured properly.
Integration is also complex, whether we need to integrate other ERP tools or middleware tools, so integration and mobile access are two areas where there is room for improvement. Setting up and maintaining these integrations can be complex.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have used Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) for three years during my career.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) is generally stable, but with some practical nuances. In our experience, once it is properly implemented and configured, it performs reliably for day-to-day contract operations such as generation, approvals, and tracking.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) is quite scalable. Being cloud-based, it can handle more users and higher contract volumes, and we just need proper configuration as complexity grows.
How are customer service and support?
Customer support is exceptional. We always have the chance to connect with the customer support team, and they are able to resolve our queries in time.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
We do not use any other CLM.
How was the initial setup?
One challenge is the initial setup and configuration, especially for complex workflows and approval hierarchies. It can require significant time and expertise to get everything aligned with the business process.
What about the implementation team?
We use Salesforce for Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM).
What was our ROI?
I do see a clear return on investment from using Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM), mainly through time savings and improved efficiency. We reduce contract turnaround time roughly by 30 to 40%, which helps accelerate deal closures. The automated workflows also reduce the need for constant follow-up, saving a significant amount for both sales and legal teams.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
From my experience, the pricing and licensing for Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) feel more in line with an enterprise-level investment. It is not the cheapest solution, but it aligns with the value it provides in terms of automation and efficiency. The setup cost can be relatively high, especially during the initial implementation phase, since it often involves configuration, integration, and sometimes external support or consulting. In terms of licensing, it is typically structured per user or role, which works well, but costs can add up as you scale across teams. Overall, while the upfront and licensing costs are significant, the return on investment becomes clear over time through improved efficiency, reduced manual work, and faster contract cycles.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
We evaluated a few other CLM solutions before choosing Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM). Some of the options we looked at include DocuSign CLM, Icertis, and Agiloft.
What other advice do I have?
The clause library and templates are extremely valuable as they allow us to generate contracts quickly using pre-approved language, which reduces legal risk and saves time. Another feature is the automated approval workflows because they streamline the entire review process and ensure contracts reach the right stakeholders without manual follow-ups. I would rate this review a 7 out of 10.

Automated approvals have streamlined multi‑state contract drafting and signing processes
Pros and Cons
- "The clarity and smooth process provided by Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) have greatly impacted my team and business."
- "For improvements in Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM), I think that for sending contract approvals, the customer signing process needs to be implemented after verifying the necessary details, which I expect to see in the future."
What is our primary use case?
My main use case for Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) is that in our day-to-day work, we primarily use it for our business purposes where we need to generate contracts for different states of America, including New Hampshire, Ohio, Texas, and Delaware. For all of these contracts, we have different types of contract record types such as SOW contracts, provider contracts, and contracting cases, which are the different types of objects that we use.
For these processes, we are primarily trying to generate a contract that should be in draft version, and we upload a contract to send for negotiations. After this, the provider verifies the contract we have sent and updates anything needed from their side.
We convert the contract from Word to PDF format using Conga before sending it to the provider. Once the provider verifies everything and completes their internal signing process, we verify any required changes as per the provider's feedback and then send the contract for external signature, known as the counter signature party.
Once that is completed, we move to the next stage in the contract execution flow, and once the contract is executed, we send it to the provider for signing purposes through the mail or other means, automatically updating the contract status to executed with the execution date being not more than today's date.
What is most valuable?
In my opinion, the best features of Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) are the signing approval processes and the document generation process, which I find very good, as the provider verifies the contract provided by Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) efficiently.
The signing approval process and document generation capability of Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) stand out for me due to the speed and automation, making it possible to view the contract flow in the user manual itself. Since we use Salesforce, we can generate the PDF from Word to PDF format, ensuring that nobody can edit the contract after it is generated by the provider.
Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) has positively impacted my organization because once the contracts are generated, it clearly shows the provider that the contract has been created, allowing us to move forward without confusion regarding customer requirements. We can mention everything in the contract, and the provider can clearly see all details included.
The clarity and smooth process provided by Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) have greatly impacted my team and business. We do not need to wait until the customer verifies; instead, the draft version of the contract is generated and sent to the provider, who can verify and update necessary changes automatically. Both the provider and customer can see what has been updated, thus saving time and ensuring that everyone agrees on the generated contract. This helps us progress swiftly to the signing process for product exchanges.
What needs improvement?
For improvements in Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM), I think that for sending contract approvals, the customer signing process needs to be implemented after verifying the necessary details, which I expect to see in the future.
I would add that for the different states where we generate different contracts, the signing process should not be the same for every contract and must be based on specific business requirements, indicating a need for improvement.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) for around two plus years in my AmeriHealth Mercy Family of Company, and it helps us with the contract execution flow, an end-to-end process from the initial stage of the draft version of the contract to the executed stage, making it easier for signing, internal signing process, and external signing process.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
In my experience, Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) has excellent scalability, efficiently handling growing workloads and users as the process continues from contract generation to the contract execution state.
How are customer service and support?
Customer support for Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) is effective. We interact with the customer through Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) to verify contracts and update needed points according to requirements. Once updates are made, the provider can verify and adjust requirements accordingly, which proves helpful for the support team.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I did not use any different solution before Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM).
What other advice do I have?
Regarding governance and security in Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM), I think it should allow access to send up to ten contracts per day for security purposes, and the signing and approval processes should not be automatically generated but verified by the provider to ensure everything aligns with business requirements.
When AI is integrated with Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM), it provides a great opportunity for contract generation and verification. However, security remains critical; hence, my opinion is that while accuracy and reliability are essential, security takes precedence during contract creation and verification.
My advice for others looking into using Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) is that it significantly aids both the provider and customer with the product, and the signing process is very effective. However, it is essential to ensure that the signing process is verified manually and not solely automated. I would rate this product a nine out of ten.

Automated document workflows have streamlined my contract and quote generation process
Pros and Cons
- "Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) has positively impacted my organization by reducing team time and enhancing the quality of documents I share with customers, allowing me to make changes in quotes and orders with just one click."
- "I chose a nine because sometimes I feel that opening Conga Composer feels a bit heavy, and occasionally I need to refer to additional documents to complete specific tasks, which is the only reason preventing a perfect score."
What is our primary use case?
My main use case for Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) occurs when I work in a telecommunication project, where there is a requirement to generate the quote and order file along with several related documents once the opportunity is completed and the order gets generated. I was using Conga to automate document generation based on my data in the backend.
Regarding my main use case and how Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) fits into my process, it simply involves creating queries and templates based on those queries, allowing me to automatically generate documents where the data is populated into my orders seamlessly.
What is most valuable?

All three are highly valuable, especially since I work as a Salesforce developer and find the process to create templates significantly streamlined.
Although I have not used all features extensively in my daily work, I find writing Conga queries remarkable because it allows me to combine data from two to three objects in a single query, making it a standout feature for obtaining data from multiple sources efficiently.
An unexpected advantage I discovered in using Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) is that previously, in Salesforce, when I used Visualforce pages for document generation, I encountered numerous errors and complications that Conga resolved by simplifying the document generation process.
Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) has positively impacted my organization by reducing team time and enhancing the quality of documents I share with customers, allowing me to make changes in quotes and orders with just one click.

Digital contract workflows have transformed our signature process and now accelerate global deals
Pros and Cons
- "After they shifted from manual work to automation, their sales, business, and revenue have all increased."
- "The improvement I would consider is that the UI should be improved, including the colors."
What is our primary use case?
I mainly use Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) to send contracts and agreements to customers for signature to get them accepted. After all one-to-one agreements and contracts are finalized on both business sides, we proceed with other processes.
For one of our customers, after we generate the document which includes all product and pricing details, we review those project and pricing details with the customer. After that, we create a contract that includes the terms and conditions, agreement details, and contract period. We send the document through email or through Conga Send to the end customer. After the customer reviews everything, if pricing changes or contract terms and conditions need updating, they revert back to us. We then make the necessary changes and send the updated document to the customer again.
What is most valuable?
For the signature process, when we send our documents or contracts and agreement documents, signatures should be present at both ends. After we sign from our company, the other business should also sign. Signatures are very important to get proof of the contract or agreement. Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) offers Conga Sign which is very useful for the signature part.
Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) offers creating contracts and creating agreements at both parties. The best part is Conga Sign, where the signature has a digital signature without any effort or manual process. Everything is automated without any human interaction. The emails are sent to the customers with reminders, and all of these things happen automatically in CLM. This is very useful and the business moves very fast and rapidly.
The automation and digital signature feature in Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) help my team's workflow by saving time because nowadays businesses are in multiple countries. Our business may be in one country and going to another business for a signature manually is a very risky and big process that takes a lot of time. Digital automation works with the click of one button, and the signature and document will be sent to people in other countries. They will sign and return it in the same automated online way. Conga Sign activity is very useful.
Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) has positively impacted our organization because within our organizations, we have built many customizations. We have many customers who are using Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM). We have done all our processes, set up everything customers require, understood their expectations, and made it easy for sales reps to use the flow. All the setup has been done from our organization, and the clients have been using it with very positive feedback after we completed the setup and handed everything over to them.
After implementing Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM), I have seen specific outcomes in metrics like time saved and increased contract completion rates with many other measurable improvements. Before Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM), the clients were using manual work which involved manual documents, Excel, and other manual tasks. Sales reps had a lot of work to do because everything was manual. After they came to our organization, we gave them the solution of Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) where we automated everything and submitted everything at the bulk level. After they shifted from manual work to automation, their sales, business, and revenue have all increased. Now the sales rep can configure everything very easily step-by-step by clicking on buttons, and everything has been completed within days. Before they used to complete everything within months, and now the time has been reduced while performance has increased.
What needs improvement?
Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) is a very best tool to use for contracts and agreements. The improvement I would consider is that the UI should be improved, including the colors. This is a UI thing and not a performance issue. The UI can be improved because most people do not like that UI part.
From my point of view, Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) has been very good thus far. An improvement could be that the package installation happens in the Salesforce ecosystem, which is dependent on the Salesforce ecosystem. On different Salesforce ecosystems, users need to use Salesforce as well. Since it is a different platform, they could potentially use their own platform for the licenses part and other things.
The only improvement I can mention regarding Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) is the UI. However, regarding data, it handles a significant amount of data. Based on my project knowledge, it can handle bulk data as well. If the data is more, it may take some time to load. This is one of the improvements they could consider.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using this for four years where I have worked with many customers and businesses. The change from before using Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) to after using it has been radical.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) is stable and can be used wherever you are. It works through the browser and is not an app. It can be used in the mobile app as well. It is stable as a cloud platform and is a tenant platform, so everyone can use it.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) has very good scalability. It is used by many customers with multiple users using it at the same time. The scalability is very good.
How are customer service and support?
Regarding customer support, whenever the customer has any doubts or is stuck, they will easily reach out to us through the support team. Everyone is there to help them. Customer support is easily available and very quick.
I would rate the customer support of Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) a nine because it is very quick, and the response is resolved very quickly.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
In my experience over four years, the clients approached us because they were using manual processes like Excels and manual documents. They were not using any other solution other than manual work. After they approached us, we provided them the solution of Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM).
What was our ROI?
I have seen a significant return on investment with Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) as it saves so much money for businesses who were not using it before. They can use it and enjoy it by clicking on some buttons and having everything done in a few minutes. Regarding employees, before the manual process, a business could have used ten people to do all those processes, but after Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) came into the picture, they can complete it with maybe five people in less time. The employee count will be reduced and the company can save money.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
In our organizations, we are using Conga, Conga CPQ, and Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM). We suggested them to use Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) only. Other than Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM), I do not have any idea on other tools.
What other advice do I have?
I would advise others looking into using Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) that it is a good tool that they can purchase because we have been using it for four years and I have come to know that it is the best tool for businesses to use.
Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) is a great tool based on a cloud platform and is very useful to users who are working on contracts, agreements, and e-signatures processes. I would suggest it is a great tool to use because nowadays no one is going for a manual thing. There are many automation tools, and it is one of the best tools to use. I would rate this review an eight out of ten.

Contract automation has streamlined approvals and improved collaboration across business teams
Pros and Cons
- "A 25% to 40% reduction in standard agreements is what we have achieved, and the centralized repository also improved the reporting on contract renewals and expiration and helped the team to identify and address those bottlenecks more quickly."
- "They are somewhat reliable, but they are not completely reliable."
What is our primary use case?
We use Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) to automate and standardize the CLM lifecycle process, including the contract request, intake forms, contract document generation, approval workflows, negotiation, e-signature integration with DocuSign, Adobe Sign, and many other e-sign platforms, and contract repository management. We have also integrated Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) with other ERP systems.
What is most valuable?
Before implementing Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM), contract requests were managed through emails and manual follow-ups for many of our customers. After we implemented it, we saw that there is a huge difference in approval tracking. It resulted in improvements in negotiation steps, approval steps, and signing steps. By implementing automated workflows and having standardized templates, whenever someone is launching a contract, the contract is generated based on templates and the fields that they have put in. That's the major difference we have seen. It has streamlined the process across sales, across legal, and our other teams.
In my opinion, the best feature of Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) is contract automation combined with strong Salesforce integration. It streamlines contract generation, approvals, and storage while improving compliance and reducing manual efforts.
At a high level, it has reduced manual entry. If someone is from an Opportunity or Account object, the integration is with the standard Salesforce object. In one of the cases, we did an integration with the Salesforce CPQ object as well. It has reduced the manual entry or duplicate work between when someone is initiating a contract. Salespeople can initiate the contract from Salesforce into Conga Lifecycle. It has improved the data accuracy and consistency. We have also observed that it has reduced the time for generation and approval cycles. It has given great visibility for the tracking of contract status within Salesforce or within the Salesforce dashboard. It has also enabled some of our sales teams to track their opportunities or the CPQ object quote where they have started the deal. They can track where the contract is pending for approval or negotiation.
Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) platform has also strengthened compliance by ensuring the approved templates and clause library can be consistently used by cross-teams across all types. This reduces the legal risk. Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) has also helped improve collaboration between the CLM team itself. It has improved the collaboration between legal and other infosec or IT teams, and that has resulted in accelerated contract execution and a better turnaround time. It has improved the visibility across systems, enabling the team to see where the contract is. This is the overall high-level view.
What needs improvement?
The most challenging aspect during implementation was configuring the complex approval workflows and managing the changes across different use cases. I assume that while the platform supports these scenarios, the configuration and testing effort can be significant, specifically when integrating with other systems such as Salesforce or any other CRM system. My suggestion would be, and I think those features are coming now, that if Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) could expand the AI integration, some of those workflows can be automated.
I know that Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) has been investing in AI capabilities to help improve contract reviews, analysis, and extraction. On the security side, contract data is highly sensitive, so security access control, audit trails, and governance are critical considerations for any organizations. We have started using AI in a few of the areas, but we do not have the entire exposure to Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM)'s AI and how they have been integrating with it.
After we started using AI, there is still a need for humans to verify the data for governance. It has reduced the work, but not significantly. Some areas still require human intervention to ensure accuracy and compliance, so exploring ways to enhance AI capabilities might reduce reliance on manual checks.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) for around four years.
How are customer service and support?
I do not find any issues with the user support.
They are somewhat reliable, but they are not completely reliable. The efficiency, from the manual effort perspective, has improved the efficiency and reduced the manual review. However, that is not something I would say allows us to proceed without review and start using AI-extracted data.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
Earlier, we were using an in-house or manual solution. Then we migrated from there.
What about the implementation team?
Generally, the deployment is something the Conga team is handling, not us.
We worked directly with the Conga team.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
We did evaluate Icertis.
What other advice do I have?
A key advantage is the flexibility.
A 25% to 40% reduction in standard agreements is what we have achieved. The centralized repository also improved the reporting on contract renewals, expiration, and helped the team to identify and address those bottlenecks more quickly. That has helped our team.
One of the examples that comes to mind is that by combining automated contract generation with standardized clauses, we have reduced the time it takes to prepare the contract. It has also improved compliance with legal standards and provided more visibility across business users, legal, and procurement.
Organizations should first note down their requirements and see if Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) entirely fits with their requirement. A thorough analysis should be done before choosing Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM). I would rate this solution an 8 out of 10.

Automation has streamlined loan document generation but still needs fewer bugs and lower costs
Pros and Cons
- "Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) positively impacted my organization because we did not have to manually enter customer details such as their name, where they work, or their address."
- "There were many bugs with Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) application that could be improved."
What is our primary use case?
Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) was used in my previous organization for document generation in the banking domain, specifically in the home loan department. At various stages of the home loan process, we had to generate documents. Initial documents were created that provided details about the loan, which demonstrated how Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) helped with document generation. When the loan cycle was completed, the final document was also generated using Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM).
What is most valuable?
Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) offers the ability to generate dynamic documents in various types such as PDF and Word formats. Generating different types of documents helped my team because we did not have to manually enter customer details. We created one document with a merge field and used that template to send details to our clients.
Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) positively impacted my organization because we did not have to manually enter customer details such as their name, where they work, or their address. All of those things were already stored in Salesforce, so we just fetched those details as a merge field in our template, and all of these things were done dynamically without having to do it one by one for each customer.
I noticed time was saved because of this automation. I do not have an exact number, but we can estimate approximately 60 to 70 percent of the time was saved.
What needs improvement?
There were many bugs with Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) application that could be improved. Additionally, the cost could be reduced.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have not used Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) at my current company, but I used it in my previous organization from 2019 to 2021.
What other advice do I have?
Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) was used along with Salesforce in my organization. I do not have specific details regarding Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM)'s AI capabilities and its governance and security. I will not discuss Conga Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM)'s AI capabilities since that was recently introduced, and since I worked five years ago, there used to be some errors and bugs as I have mentioned earlier. My overall rating for this product is 6 out of 10.
