The end result is an accelerated pace of doing business, increased compliance, and more efficient employees.

  ### 1. Manager, Business & Legal Affairs

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Alyssia M. | Manager, Business & Legal Affairs, Entertainment, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 17, 2016

**What do you like best about Docusign CLM?**

Easy, intuitive search capabilities and web browser access/mobile app 

**What do you dislike about Docusign CLM?**

Can't pull docs from email straight to SpringCM -- have to pull to desktop first and then to SpringCM

Also, redlining from other parties cannot be integrated within the doc in SpringCM unless other party has SpringCM too

**What problems is Docusign CLM solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Solving: improved document saving structure; improved search capabilities; improved reporting 

Department still acclimating to transition, so slowly reaping/realizing benefits 

  ### 2. Good front end functionality. A little difficult to set up and control on the backend

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Telecommunications | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 17, 2016

**What do you like best about Docusign CLM?**

Salesforce integration really nice. Being able to display documents in iframe on object and interact with them is a nice feature to have for a business user. 

**What do you dislike about Docusign CLM?**

The backend is pretty kludgy. If you don't have a professional developer who can work on setting up workflow, code xml, etc., then you will have a difficult time getting maximum value from the SpringCM product and/or the Salesforce integration.  

**Recommendations to others considering Docusign CLM:**

Improve the WYSIWYG on the backend interface.

**What problems is Docusign CLM solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Contract management, amendments, etc., spun up from salesforce objects, sent to the customer for signature and filed correctly. Solves a lot of issues for our company.

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Sunil S. | Salesforce Consultant, Telecommunications, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 22, 2016

**What do you like best about Docusign CLM?**

User friendliness.  It's fairly easy to use.  Unless if you are creating a template and you have no coding experiences.

**What do you dislike about Docusign CLM?**

needs to be more friendly for admins with little to no coding experience.

**Recommendations to others considering Docusign CLM:**

Great feed backs from the company in terms of keeping us updated.

**What problems is Docusign CLM solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Managing documents namely contracts.  And it is very easy to use.

  ### 4. Excellent electronic content management solution

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Darryla Z. | Records & Contracts Management, Utilities, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 22, 2016

**What do you like best about Docusign CLM?**

The program is easy for all end-users to utilize without extensive training.

**What do you dislike about Docusign CLM?**

The document search could be better, and adding the ability to place a 'record hold' should be included without additional costs.

**Recommendations to others considering Docusign CLM:**

Highly recommend SpringCM

**What problems is Docusign CLM solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are a 78 year old company.  We had voluminous amounts of paper records that were not only difficult to locate, but took up an enormous amount of storage space.  Our employees have a much more efficient means of locating records, and our physical record storage space has been drastically reduced with the implementation of SpringCM.

  ### 5. SpringCM has been a good addition to our document storage solution.

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Telecommunications | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 17, 2016

**What do you like best about Docusign CLM?**

I like how secure and flexible the storage capabilities are.  I like that I can define different access to sub-folders and everything isn't controlled by parent folders. 

**What do you dislike about Docusign CLM?**

I think that SpringCM could improve on the permission sets for sharing.  I would like users to be able to Move and Cut/Paste without giving them permission to delete. I hope this will come out in a future release. 

**Recommendations to others considering Docusign CLM:**

Make sure you understand folder structure permissions as they're very flexible.

**What problems is Docusign CLM solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We wanted increased audit history on who is viewing, editing, downloading and making changes to legal documents. 

  ### 6. Excellent document management; great company

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Paul Y. | Enterprise Account Executive, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 14, 2015

**What do you like best about Docusign CLM?**

The best part is, it just works--full stop.  Straight out of the box, the document management features of SpringCM are powerful.  Even someone with basic admin skills can set it up.  With additional skill resources, even more amazing things can be done.

**What do you dislike about Docusign CLM?**

The interface is somewhat dated and clunky.  As powerful as the product is, I'd strongly suggest they devote more time to discovering the pinch points on how the interface functions.

**Recommendations to others considering Docusign CLM:**

Investigate all options on the market and make sure that what you select meets all requirements.  Also make absolutely certain that the company you select has adequate support.

**What problems is Docusign CLM solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The basic problem was, "where is ___________?"  As we grew, finding contracts, collateral, and internal documents became nearly impossible.  SpringCM addressed this core issue.  We are now able to find things for prospects, clients, and ourselves in much less time.

  ### 7. Great fit for our organization 

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Leo R. | Senior Business Analyst, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

Haven't used the system long enough to develop some dislikes, but I'll be sure to share once I do!

**Recommendations to others considering Docusign CLM:**

Go thru the training in depth - the product has much more to offer than just being a contract management solution.  

**What problems is Docusign CLM solving and how is that benefiting you?**

A central repository for contract type documents was needed across multiple departments.  The reporting capabilities of SpringCM are really nice. 

  ### 8. Good product with helpful customer service.

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Research | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 17, 2016

**What do you like best about Docusign CLM?**

The flexibility of the product along with the customer service are the best parts in my option.

**What do you dislike about Docusign CLM?**

For more complex workflows and processes it is sometimes necessary to use SpringCM developers which can be expensive.

We on board new products with a customer eform and workflow as well as process our year end price updates.  We cut time from our processes and ensure we receive the correct information to add new products for our suppliers.

Attributes panel is an important feature we use.  I'd like to have the ability to expand this portion of the screen and the text boxes so its easier to write and read text in these fields.

**What problems is Docusign CLM solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Our client contracts were decentralized.  As our SpringCM database grows, we are able to have these client contracts accessible by all divisions throughout our organization.

We have one repository for all contracts.
We are no longer operating under expired contracts.


  ### 13. Great product

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Higher Education | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 13, 2016

**What do you like best about Docusign CLM?**

It is easy to use. As soon as you open up the box, very easy to set up. I really like the document management feature. Not much skill is required. A novice user would easily be able to set this up.

**What do you dislike about Docusign CLM?**

I think things could be streamlined a bit more. It seems to take a little while to get to the features that you want to get to. Looking more at the interface would help. 

**What problems is Docusign CLM solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Hunting for documents was terrible for us. Now that we have this management system it's very easy to find the documents that were looking for. Our clients are much happier because were able to get the information out to them quickly.

  ### 14. My organization uses spring CM for contract management

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

SpringCM has made our contracts much easier to track and report on. 

  ### 15. Spring CM Resume Module

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Construction | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 14, 2015

**What do you like best about Docusign CLM?**

Automated update requests and reminders for self-service users. Integration with MS Office for export.

**What do you dislike about Docusign CLM?**

The inability to easily reorder past work projects that have already been entered in a resume. Difficult configuration requirements. Setup should be more "out of the box," Also, the update process should be more wizard like (think Turbo Tax style). 

**Recommendations to others considering Docusign CLM:**

Be aware that the resume management software isn't plug and play. The degree of customization can be a plus or a minus depending on your organization's needs. Also, a few of the features (such as saving changes to a resume in the middle of an update, which then returns you to the start of the form you were updating) created some confusion for our test users. Beyond that, the software was functional. We just wished it was more wizard-based guided.

**What problems is Docusign CLM solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are currently using our old processes.

  ### 16. Outstanding Contracts and Legal Dbase!

The updated features of the product. Definitely more user friendly, aesthetically.

**What do you dislike about Docusign CLM?**

This has been an absolute and utter disappointment to implement. The tool was purchased over a year ago and we still have nothing to show for it.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Scott G. | Vice President of Sales & Marketing, Information Services, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 24, 2015

**What do you like best about Docusign CLM?**

Stria has been using SpringCM as our cloud based, document management solution for approximately 5 years. Everyone on our team utilizes SpringCM to easily and securely store, search and distribute important documents from multiple locations from any web enabled device. We have recently learned how to use the SpringCM advanced workflow, so it also serves as a very powerful Business Automation Process tool within our organization.

**What do you dislike about Docusign CLM?**

The user interface should be enhanced in future releases.

Amazing, scalable product for an affordable price.

  ### 31. Content Management at a whole new level that is Smart, Efficient, Affordable yet Immensly Capable! 

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Craig P. | Owner, Management Consulting

**Reviewed Date:** September 05, 2014

**What do you like best about Docusign CLM?**

The ability to acquire, view, share, and workflow process all media, not just documents, PDF's or Tiff's.  We can deploy the solution rapidly and our clients begin to experience success without ordering hardware, seeing boxes, setting up servers, etc.   

**What do you dislike about Docusign CLM?**

The capabilities of the workflow solution are great but the interface lacks the ease and intuitiveness that I have seen in competing products.   We have learned to make it work, and we understand it now, but it seems dated.

**Recommendations to others considering Docusign CLM:**

Content management means so much better than document scanning and filing.  You can figure SpringCM out and get a lot out of it on your own.  However, for the real time savers and solution needs I recommend getting assistance, at least in the beginning, from an experienced solution vendor.   If it needs to be done SpringCM can do it.

**What problems is Docusign CLM solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Government agency document capture and filing.   Managing client documents can now be performed without losing a single document, and our client agencies can spend more time performing public service to humanity, rather than paper.   Use of paper and copiers is down 50-60% meaning less time away from your desk and more efficient workflow and productivity.  Staff have 100% confidence that they can find every client document, every time.  Less use of printers and paper supplies.  Better air quality from less copy machine and paper dust.  

  ### 32. Powerful tool, responsive company, improving performance consistently

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Hans T. | South Practice Director, Information Technology and Services, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 27, 2015

**What do you like best about Docusign CLM?**

Very flexible tool that integrates with Salesforce.com and is very flexible to meet the needs of any business

**What do you dislike about Docusign CLM?**

SpringCM is a young and growing company, and while they are responsive to performance issues, they have had unexpected performance issues that seem to result from their rapid growth. Some of the customizations available require specific skills that are hard to find for ongoing internal development.

**Recommendations to others considering Docusign CLM:**

  ### 33. Easy, Intuitive - a Winning Solution

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Karen H. | Global Procurement &amp; Real Estate Officer, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 30, 2014

**What do you like best about Docusign CLM?**

The user interface is so intuitive making it easy to train and realize quick adoption.  The true integration with SalesForce is a huge plus.  I have used/administered this system for over 3 years at two different companies and recommend it to anyone seeking a content management solution.  The edit functions are awesome making it easy for document sharing/collaboration.

**What do you dislike about Docusign CLM?**

The main thing that I dislike is that I didn't know about it sooner!  

**Recommendations to others considering Docusign CLM:**

The functionality, intuitiveness and price point should be a major reason to consider this system.  All systems are only as good as they are used/adopted.  The implementation process is quick and easy, the support from SpringCM is above many other companies with quick and helpful responses.

**What problems is Docusign CLM solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Document and content sharing/management enterprise wide.  We have realized a quicker turnaround on the whole contracting and reporting process

  ### 34. SpringCM implemented within Salesforce

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Bill C. | CFO, Information Services, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 08, 2014

**What do you like best about Docusign CLM?**

SpringCM has increased our efficiency and utilization across disciplines.  We have been able to take our Salesforce CRM usage from opportunity through e-contract through project delivery, largely due to the content management provided by SpringCM.  Well worth the investment!

**What do you dislike about Docusign CLM?**

We had a little trouble with the default folder structure at first, but that has now been resolved.

  ### 35. Easy Salesforce Integration - Efficient Support from the technical team.

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Isabelle R. | Global Field Ops Business Process Development Manager, Semiconductors, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 17, 2014

**What do you like best about Docusign CLM?**

The user interface, the folder structure, the preview and the SSO (Salesforce)

**What do you dislike about Docusign CLM?**

Post a Spring CM Document link to Chatter when the user is working from the Spring CM Viewer Tab in Salesforce. The user doesn't always generate a  link and uses the url (brower), others will never access the file but the last page of Spring CM they looked at. The Chatter Post is useless.

**Recommendations to others considering Docusign CLM:**

My feedback is based on my experience as a Salesforce Administrator and as a user of the tool. To get more feedback on the tool administration, please consider other product reviews. In terms of Salesforce/ Spring CM integration, I have tested the Folder Widget and the Dynamic Search Widget. Those are promising features (I like the Dynamic Search Widget ) but we haven't deployed yet. We are also looking for better integration with Chatter (Actions). The SSO was easy to set up.
We are getting good support from SpringCM; they help us to move on and I am willing to collaborate with them to test new features.

**What problems is Docusign CLM solving and how is that benefiting you?**

As a user, I sometimes experience difficulties to find the document I am looking for.

  ### 36. Good Collaboration Tool

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Kyle K. | System Administrator - Backups and Storage, Broadcast Media, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 09, 2014

**What do you like best about Docusign CLM?**

The automation and workflows allow you to free up time for key stuff to not have to do data entry tasks.

**What do you dislike about Docusign CLM?**

Speed of access can be cumbersome from certain locations but especially outside continental North America

**Recommendations to others considering Docusign CLM:**

A very good and powerful tool for automation and other tasks. Access from outside of North America can be a test.

**What problems is Docusign CLM solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Allows us to push documents to travelling sales staff as well as have a central point of access for all of our 6 offices.

  ### 37. SpringCM - the ultimate cloud-based content tool

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jim D. | Founder / CEO, Information Services, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 05, 2014

**What do you like best about Docusign CLM?**

Ease of use. Customer support.  Partner support. 

**What do you dislike about Docusign CLM?**

Some of the more advanced features are not as easy to implement as we'd like.  You have to be a developer to do some of the more advanced things.  That's a very minor criticism.  

**Recommendations to others considering Docusign CLM:**

Try it!  It is as easy as any other cloud-based DMS.

**What problems is Docusign CLM solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Managing internal and external content, delivering content to clients.  It's helped Stria and it's clients organize over 10M scanned images.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Stephanie A. | Sr. Business Analyst – Finance and Sales Systems, Medical Devices, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 05, 2014

**What do you like best about Docusign CLM?**

Clean user interface, straight forward and rapid ability to support my business units needs.

**What do you dislike about Docusign CLM?**

Little limitations -- dashboards should allow users to 'manage work' from the view, some limitations to customize but nothing that hinders business.

**What problems is Docusign CLM solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Central storage of various types of contracts, creating repository for requests -- rather than having requests from 100 sources (email, phone call, etc.) business groups can manage requests via forms in a central place.

**What do you like best about Docusign CLM?**

The integration capability with SF.com and how it handles documents, hierarchy, roles and security much better than the out of the box salesforce functionality.

At this time no real cons for us so far.

It empowers are reps and gives them the capabilities to have all the document information at their finger tips, where previously shared drives and sharepoint was the go to tool.  This provides all in one access
