Recensioni su CobbleStone Contract Insight

Great Sell-Side Contract Management Software

Commenti: Since day one, Cobblestone has given us the support we needed in order to make Cobblestone a part of the everyday lives of the members of my organization. Together we have customized our software to meet the ever-changing needs of the organization. Whether it be through the annual Cobblestone conferences, technical support, or the support of my account manager, I have never felt alone trying to optimize Cobblestone usage.

Aspetti positivi:

Cobblestone allows us to track and manage contracts throughout the entire lifecycle, including the initial request and approvals. Customizable workflow gives us the flexibility to incorporate all aspects of the contract lifecycle, regardless of type. We are also able to track and report real-time with customizable reports and dashboards.

Aspetti negativi:

I would like to see improvement in the mobile app and accessibility from mobile devices.

CobbleStone CLM works great for us.

Commenti: Overall, out experience with CobbleStone has been very positive. We highly recommend the company for contract management software.

Aspetti positivi:

We love the seamless integration with MS Word and Excel. Cobblestone has a prebuilt plug-in with Word and Outlook.

Aspetti negativi:

We don't have any issues with the system at this time. It has been great for years.

We will at last gain control over our contracts!

Commenti: So far, so good. We are just in the beginning of the installation process. Exited to get it in place to be able to take the next step in Contract Management.

Aspetti positivi:

Powerful. The flexibility in configuration and possibility to follow the complete contract Lifecycle. For our security demands where a deployed solution was the only option, Cobblestone have the best system on the market to this day.

Aspetti negativi:

Cobblestone AI solution with VISDOM needs more work to get better at pulling contract data in more languages.

Helpful for building contracts

Commenti: N/a- I am still experimenting the app so I don’t have a formed opinion yet. But pleased with the contractual part of it.

Aspetti positivi:

Keeps contracts and endorsements organized and looking professional.

Aspetti negativi:

I expected to see some templates or get more support.

All jn one contractors tome saver

Commenti: At first it was overwhelming with all the new features yo have to learn where to find what you need with in the program. But one you use it for a few weeks. Its a time saver.

Aspetti positivi:

Its a Simpler Way if uour a Trade Contractors To Plan, Schedule & Manage Jobs For Home Builders.

Aspetti negativi:

It took a little whike to remember where everyyhing is in the platform. It was kind of jumbled all to together at first.

New Customer

Aspetti positivi:

We have just started implementation, so I don't have much to mention

Cobblestone has been a wonderful contract management tool! Its extremely easy to navigate!

Commenti: All IT Contracts are stored in one central place

Aspetti positivi:

Ever since Cobblestone has been rolled out at my company, IT now has visibility of its contract inventory. Contract owners receive the automated email alerts informing them of their contract expiration's which has prompted action on their behalf and are able to avoid lapse in support, or reinstatement penalties. I am able to distribute 90 day rolling contracts to all CIO's to make them aware of their respective areas. Emailing contracts from the systems to the contract owners makes it extremely convenient. The ability to customize the fields of a contract record, ease of adding contracts, vendors, employees has been very simple. As the administrator of the system, I have alot of flexibility to modify the configurations without assistance from Cobblestone. There are very helpful tutorials in case I require additional assistance. The Cobblestone staff is extremely efficient and friendly. The Help Desk portal to place tickets for technical assistance is great! You receive assistance immediately. Matt Hughes my account rep has been fantastic! Very helpful and always available. The ability to add an unlimited amount of attachments to a contract record and Ad Hoc reporting mechanism has been very beneficial. The ability to report on all the metadata is quick and simple when I have been tasked with providing contractual data. I would highly recommend Contract Insight as a contract management tool.

Aspetti negativi:

Everything is out of the box. For special configuration needs to be customized which is not a problem. The hourly rates are affordable for custom configuration.

Tailored to your needs

Commenti: An increase in business people responses regarding contract status, and a decrease in missed deadlines. Customer service is wonderful and the entire Cobblestone team is always willing to assist.

Aspetti positivi:

I like how Cobblestone can be tailored to your internal processes. We do not use the contract system like other users . We alert our business people with notices/alerts when their contracts are nearing expiration/auto-renewal date. Our Cobblestone representative took time to work with Legal directly to design the required workflows. Later, we launched a new contract policy and both our representative and software team was able to integrate our policy's contract notice requirements and the required workflows into our system.

Aspetti negativi:

A little difficult to navigate at first, but this was likely due to the need for learning the system and its functionality rather quickly. However, our customer service representative was always willing to assist with navigation questions, show system shortcuts, and even provide some basic training.

Cobblestone Software is so versatile and feature-rich, great product and support!

Commenti: I have chosen, planned and implemented two different systems with Cobblestone for two very different businesses in two completely different fields. It can be customized to fit almost any need a legal department might have. When people see how powerful and versatile it is, they are always amazed! It is a cost effective stream-lining solution for many in-house legal department tasks and projects.

Aspetti positivi:

The ability to customize the software is one of the best features as it provides functionality where different legal categories can be customized within the system easily. The level of support from Cobblestone is huge. Reps are so helpful. I can bring them a scenario and they can recommend ways to accomplish the goal. This is a smart company run by a lot of very smart and dedicated people.

Aspetti negativi:

I really haven't found any cons in the implementation and use of this software. I'm a big proponent of Cobblestone Systems/Contract Insight.

We mad the right choice

Commenti: We reviewed other contract management software for months before selecting CobbleStone. We mad the right choice. Their software is flexible to meet our specific needs.

Aspetti positivi:

Easy to set up fields, contract types, reports and workflow approvals.

Aspetti negativi:

Haven't found one yet, but I will update this review if something comes up.

A Game Changer for Our Contract Management Processes

Commenti: It is an invaluable resource for our company as an IT user. The software's user-friendly interface and extensive features make it simple to manage and keep track of every aspect of our contracts from beginning to end. For us, the ability to automate contract processes and boost productivity has been a game-changer. Now, we can streamline contract approvals, quickly locate and retrieve important contract information, and easily keep track of expiration dates. To ensure that everyone is on the same page, the software has also improved communication between departments and stakeholders. CobbleStone Contract Insight has all in all surpassed our expectations, and we heartily endorse it for anyone looking to automate their contract management procedure.

Aspetti positivi:

It has significantly improved our organization's ability to manage contracts. We can keep track of every one of our contracts and their specific details in one location thanks to the user-friendly interface and customizable dashboards. For us, it has also been a game-changer to have the ability to quickly search and retrieve contracts based on particular criteria. The software integrates with other systems without a hitch, and the customer support staff is always on hand to help with any problems we may run into.

Aspetti negativi:

One of the main difficulties is the interface, which can initially be difficult to use. It can take some time to get used to all the features and functions, and the learning curve for new users can be steep. Additionally, the software can be slow to load, especially when working with larger contract databases, which can hurt productivity. As it can be challenging to derive useful insights from the data, the reporting and analytics features could also use some improvement.

"Contract Management Team of One" no longer drowning.

Commenti: CobbleStone's staff is so responsive to my questions and continue to support my ability to improve how I use the software. The recent need to work-from-home, showed me and the upper management of my agency, just how amazing and necessary my Contract Insight software is to our continued ability to serve the public and keep all the balls in the air.

Aspetti positivi:

Love the emailed Alerts. I was drowning trying to keep up with a large volume of unique agreements for a government agency, until CobbleStone's Contract Insight software provided me with the tools to rein in all the details in a readily retrievable, useable system and never miss a deadline.

Aspetti negativi:

At first the software had some labels and categories that could not be changed which was a minor inconvenience, but in the last two years Contract Insight has become supremely configurable and customizable.

Trial Phase Review

Commenti: So far, our overall experience has been the trial phase that Cobblestone was kind to extend for us. We have had multiple training sessions and I have learned a great deal about the system in a short period of time. I give that credit to [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN], who is our Cobblestone support person. [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] is a true professional: responsive, extremely knowledgeable about the product, and patient as can be. We feel very fortunate to have been paired with [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN].

Aspetti positivi:

The system is intuitive and easy to learn. The support staff during the trial phase (that is where our company is currently), is outstanding! Every feature we asked for they are able to accommodate.

Aspetti negativi:

I have tried to watch a few of the video tutorials to learn features on my own and how to navigate the system. I have found that some of these are boring and therefore not easy to follow. It would also be more helpful if there were a search function so you could put it what you want to learn about and the tutorials would be displayed. It is not so easy to find topics in the Wiki function.

Cobblestone Review

Commenti: We have used Cobblestone contract management system for almost 3 years now to help us manage our vendor contracts. It has been a huge success in keeping track of our pending contracts as well as active and expiring contracts. We use to track down expiration dates, renewals and other reminders for any contracts. The system is extremely user friendly with training new employees, keeps excellent data of important data for our contracts as well as upcoming reminders that will need to be sent out. We have many features that have helped us manage our contracts by personalizing them by our managers so they can easily use the system and reports. Any questions/concerns/issues have been promptly answered by our rep and the customer service team.

Aspetti positivi:

Very user friendly, easy to move through the system to use and very useful for managing our many contracts.

Aspetti negativi:

There are a couple of things we wish we can personalize for our company but the IT team is looking into it for us.

Cobblestone for Industrial Contracts Management

Commenti: We are now able to store, update and have in a secure location all our confidential, legal and contractual documents viewable by our company utilizing access management tools within the software.
Utilizing the alerts and management tools build within Cobblestone, we will be keeping the documents updated and ensure that we execute the documents more affectively.

Aspetti positivi:

The technical support was outstanding with follow up and regular conversations as we developed the program to fit our specific industry contracts and documents database needs.

Aspetti negativi:

Noting really, " the least"! There were a few obstacles that the Cobblestone team worked through working closely with our team to get the required end results. There were a couple of issues with flexibility with their "canned" product but we worked through those with other choices and options that fit the request.

Set out to get a central repository, and got so much more!

Commenti: Overall I would say that my experience has been positive, as I set out to find a contract repository, and ended up with a system that can do it all in one.

Aspetti positivi:

What I love most about Cobblestone is the ease it brings to managing my contracts and how quickly I was able to adopt it as a way of administering them.

Aspetti negativi:

The document collaboration is too difficult to process. I exchange markups with my customer's constantly, and it is very time consuming processing the document, merging the template, and then check-in and check-out, and attach, make sure you click the drop down to check for your contacts, and so on....

Great Product

Commenti: The software has many features including contract and PDF searching, reliable email notifications and customizable reporting capability. The customer support team is excellent, very responsive and friendly.

Aspetti positivi:

Cobblestone is a great system that allows me to manage our contracts, find documents and complete tasks in a timely manner. Customer support is wonderful, always very responsive.

Aspetti negativi:

Cobblestone fits all of our needs. No cons here!

Great product, fantastic team, has made our team more efficient!

Commenti: We are more efficient (everything lives in one space) and we have been able to leverage cost savings by renegotiating contracts for the same services at different properties.

Aspetti positivi:

Cobblestone is a fantastic system. From its ease of use when adding a contract (couple step process) to uploading the contract, it has allowed our organization to streamline our contract management process. Notes/key contacts/status are all kept updated in one place. Renewals/upcoming contract expiration's are never missed, as auto-reminders are sent from the software. The system has made our company more efficient as well as has allowed us to realize true cost savings (properties may have been on different vendor agreements for the same service, which have now been streamlined).

Aspetti negativi:

Cobblestone is a ready to go system. While there is some customization, there are a lot of options/fields. Not all options/fields are required, however, since they are presented to the user, some users feel they have to fill out all fields. As a result, this may make adding each contract very timely. However, this is also a benefit, as filling out all fields make every entry as detailed as possible.

Contract Management Made Smart

Aspetti positivi:

We were in need of a business solution that could replace outdated and unstable workflow processes and technologies. Cobblestone’s Contract Insight offers one centralized repository for our contract data and documents while also providing a robust product and service delivery model that securely protects our data and allows for internal transparency and accountability. Contract Insight has a highly talented and caring software team providing non-stop excellent and professional services throughout implementation phases and going forward for the life of the business relationship.

Aspetti negativi:

Recommend the software company improves reporting tools for ease of use and intuitiveness.

Robust, flexible and cost-effective platform gets the job done

Commenti: Accurately capturing metadata to generate useful reports was a concern - the implementer listened carefully to those concerns and provided a thorough education while offering solutions then, viola! I remain awestruck as it took an excellent grasp of complex circumstances to accomplish the generation of a high-value report - one that saves time and effort across multiple departments.

Aspetti positivi:

Customization allowed capture of specific data to generate useful reports for multiple departments.

Aspetti negativi:

Lag time and inability to remove/hide out-of- the-box fields/modules; however, the accustomed to the platform a user becomes, the less those elements are noticed.

Best Product my Company has Implemented

Commenti: Great software and excellent customer service. Support team is always able to help.

Aspetti positivi:

CobbleStone's Software has made my job finding contracts, obtaining approvals and reporting so much easier. I can easily route documents for review, see all active contracts, budgets we set internally, and budgets remaining on my contracts after they are signed and active. During implementation I learned how to configure workflow on my own which makes it easy for me to make updates to our processes as they evolve.

Aspetti negativi:

Nothing at this time. CobbleStone has been great to work with.

Cobblestone Data Base

Commenti: Having the ability to renew contracts before they expire.

Aspetti positivi:

I like the tracking feature the most. I believe that it is very easy to upload the documents.

Aspetti negativi:

Off of the top of my head I cannot think of anything that should change.

This Application has a lot to offer.

Commenti: Seems a bit Rigid. Not very user friendly.

Aspetti positivi:

Offers a lot of options to the company. Man of which i do not use.

Aspetti negativi:

Contract Entry is cumbersome - it can take up to 10 minutes to enter one contract

Easy to use System, Helpful Team

Commenti: I'm pleased with the system. [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] makes time for my questions and training requests. There are things I do not like but that is more from how my predecessor used the system and not Contract Insight's fault. Your team is working hard to help me make the changes necessary for it to be more user friendly to our users going forward.

Aspetti positivi:

The software is very user friendly. If you're ever stuck, help is just a phone call or email away.

Aspetti negativi:

Sometimes the system crashes in the middle of generating an ad-hoc report. This could be user error though. I would love a feature to export bulk attachments on my own.

Used for over 5 years and still going

Commenti: I have worked with many software companies and Contract Insight have invested almost as mush as we have with ideas and modifications. A true partner.

Aspetti positivi:

Easy to customize each user experience, but still robust enough to deal with complexity of a state agency. User can easily export data without System Administration help.

Aspetti negativi:

Nothing at this time do I like least of the CLM system
