Why customers choose PandaDoc CPQ over Responsive
Built with electronic signatures
in mind
PandaDoc and Responsive include electronic signatures in their RFP software. Prior to 2019, these features were not included in the standard Responsive user toolkit.
With PandaDoc, every document you send as part of your RFP process will be able to receive secure and legally binding e-signatures.
Advanced proposal automation and integration
PandaDoc outshines competing proposal automation tools by offering native integrations with a broader range of CRMs and platforms, such as Salesforce, HubSpot, Google Drive, and Dropbox.
PandaDoc delivers a balanced solution, combining in-depth proposal automation with advanced document management. Our API allows integration with your favorite tools. You can have automated proposals that maintain a personal touch. This makes PandaDoc a standout choice for businesses seeking both efficiency and user-friendly tools.
A process built on collaboration
Responsive highlights that proposal requests frequently involve multiple teams.
With PandaDoc, users can build team workspaces, define custom roles, and utilize reporting for performance tracking. Document access allows customers to collaborate with your team.
"One of my reps tried it on the first day everything was up and running. I’m pretty sure he was able to create, send, and even receive a completed quote within minutes. A few other reps were there to witness it too. I guess you can say everyone was hooked after that."
Demo & trial
Many Responsive users find the standard demo requirement to be an obstacle when selecting software. There is not an option for a free trial, and response time for the demo could take a day or two to set up. At PandaDoc users can opt for a demo, free 14-day trial, or both. Find out why PandaDoc has earned the trust of thousands of users and is the preferred software for businesses big and small.
Improved mobile functionality
Our apps adapt to your device’s interface, cutting out the need for a browser when signing documents or checking updates. With PandaDoc, you can sign and send your documents from anywhere.
Document management analytics
PandaDoc provides many tools to boost customer success, beginning with team and document analytics. Gain valuable customer insights into document engagement with our analytics features. See the page view duration and the number of document views per signer. Version control protects previous document versions, so feel free to make changes. Assign team roles, generate reports, and track activity and document progress. Team roles can be assigned, reports generated, and activity tracked to monitor document progress.
Centralized content management
While Responsive highlights its content library and asset management platform, PandaDoc provides a more comprehensive solution incorporating rich media, graphics, and content blocks. Keep your branded images and key content readily available in our content library. While building documents, you can save your content blocks to the content library. This content management system allows for quick proposal development, easy access to key assets, and a faster CPQ process.
Secure payment upfront
Responsive’s usefulness is limited for RFPs needing upfront payment. Using PandaDoc, customers can sign and pay proposals directly through an integrated payment gateway. This significantly improves deal closure rates.
Superior design tools
Proposal flexibility in Responsive is limited by its insufficient design tools. Create proposals exactly how you want with PandaDoc’s comprehensive design tools. After you finish, save your document as a template for easy access when working on subsequent RFPs.
