Why do companies choose SpotDraft over DocuSign CLM?

Implement in 2 weeks, not 6 months

DocuSign requires payment for external vendor implementation, which can take 6 months or longer. In contrast, SpotDraft offers an in-house implementation program included in every license, providing unlimited training and a dedicated success manager to ensure quick, hassle-free adoption.
I love working directly with their customer success/onboarding team. They have been incredible partners and so easy to work with.

DocuSign is a woefully 
inadequate CLM

DocuSign is far from being an end-to-end solution. It’s almost unbelievable that it lacks a fully functional contract editor! With SpotDraft, you can manage the entire contract lifecycle in one place, without needing extra apps.

“SpotDraft has massively reduced our turnaround time for creating and approving contracts. The ability to go from template contracts to a fully-functional Editor really helps manage our end-to-end contracting workflow. Their Editor's AI features such as definition extraction and error identification are a time-saver.”

Let go of clunky, embrace clean

DocuSign’s users find themselves lost in its clunky, sluggish dashboard, affecting productivity and ROI. That’s why we’ve designed SpotDraft’s interface to be as intuitive as possible, so that everything is right where you’d expect it to be.
“SpotDraft’s system is straight forward, intuitive, and easy to use, both for administrators and users, who have adapted to it very quickly.”

Scale without breaking the bank

DocuSign users have suffered through hidden costs and extra charges beyond certain thresholds. With SpotDraft, you pay what you see, and your CLM tool remains affordable even as your company grows.
“SpotDraft has the best mix of functionality and reasonable pricing. We've been usingSpotDraft for most of our contract flow and signing. It has made getting agreementsout for signature much easier.”

Never suffer through sloppy support

Users of DocuSign have reported long response times and ignored requests. Unlike them, we care enough to offer industry-leading, hands-on customer service that’s always got your back.
“The easy-to-use functionalities added with SUPERB customer support andimplementation made the transition to SpotDraft a smooth process.”

you work
