Docusign CLM scores 7.9 and fits companies standardized on Docusign eSignature. Conga CLM scores 7.8 and fits Salesforce teams and SAP Ariba buyers. None publishes a CLM list price. ## Key takeaways - Agiloft scores 8.0, Docusign CLM 7.9 and Conga CLM 7.8 on our five CLM criteria. - Conga added an SAP Ariba connector, Supplier Portal and sanctions screening in October 2026. - Docusign CLM names SAP Ariba and Coupa; Agiloft names Ariba, Coupa, Oracle, NetSuite, Tradeshift and Zip. - Vendr medians: Agiloft $67,132 a year; Conga $18,139 across all products. - Docusign IAM plans start at $45 per user a month; Agiloft Astra has a free tier. A supplier contract auto-renews at a higher rate because the notice date lived in a PDF, not in the system of record. Conga vs Docusign CLM vs Agiloft is a choice between three platforms that promise to stop that. They start from different places: the sales record, the signature and a data model you configure yourself. We scored all three on the five weighted criteria we use for every contract platform: after-signature tracking (3 points), procurement fit (2.5), authoring and review (2), time to value (1.5) and pricing clarity (1). Facts come from each vendor’s product, procurement, integration, pricing and release pages, plus Vendr, read on November 2, 2026. Our [scoring rules](https://procuretechguide.com/how-we-rank/) are public, and related guides sit in the [contract management hub](https://procuretechguide.com/topics/contract-management/). ## Conga vs Docusign CLM vs Agiloft: which should you pick? Pick Agiloft, at 8.0 out of 10, if procurement needs its own fields, approvals and supplier rules without code. Pick Docusign CLM, at 7.9, if your contracts already run through Docusign eSignature. Pick Conga CLM, at 7.8, if Salesforce is your system of record or SAP Ariba runs sourcing. | | Conga CLM | Docusign CLM | Agiloft | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Built around | The Salesforce record and quote-to-contract | The signature and the Docusign IAM platform | A no-code data model you configure | | Best for | Salesforce shops and SAP Ariba buyers | Teams already standardized on Docusign eSignature | Procurement teams with their own approval rules | | Named S2P links | SAP Ariba connector (October 2026) | SAP Ariba and Coupa | SAP Ariba, Coupa, Oracle, NetSuite, Tradeshift, Zip | | Supplier-facing tools | Supplier Portal and sanctions screening | Not named on the pages we read | Not named on the pages we read | | Public price | No; Vendr median $18,139 a year across all Conga products | IAM plans from $45 per user a month; CLM is quoted | No for CLM; Astra AI tier free or $120 a month | | Our score | 7.8 | 7.9 | 8.0 | Conga vs Docusign CLM vs Agiloft at a glance. Scores are out of 10 on five weighted criteria. Facts from vendor pages checked November 2, 2026. Our pick **Agiloft for configurable procurement contracts** Agiloft leads by a tenth because it tracks renewals, notice periods and supplier commitments, and connects to the widest set of named procurement systems on its [procurement page](https://www.agiloft.com/solutions/procurement-contract-management). Docusign CLM wins authoring and review. Conga wins procurement fit after its October release. ## Where does each platform start the contract? Each platform starts the contract somewhere different, and that decides who owns it. Conga starts from the Salesforce record, Docusign CLM from the agreement you will sign, and Agiloft from a record type you design. Pick the one that matches where your supplier contracts are born today. Conga says on its [Salesforce page](https://conga.com/salesforce) that it is the AppExchange leader for contract management, e-signature, document generation and enterprise CPQ. Its [home page](https://conga.com/) also says the platform works across any CRM, any ERP and any cloud. Docusign sells CLM as part of Docusign IAM, its [agreement platform](https://www.docusign.com/products/platform). Image: Conga CLM product page, conga.com, captured November 2, 2026. Agiloft’s [home page](https://www.agiloft.com/) says you can configure contracts, approval chains and processes without writing a line of code or opening a support request. That suits procurement teams whose approval rules do not match a standard template. It also means someone must own the configuration. ## How do they fit a procurement stack? Agiloft names the most procurement systems, Docusign names SAP Ariba and Coupa, and Conga now has a two-way SAP Ariba connector. Only Conga names supplier-facing tools: a portal and sanctions screening. All three name obligation tracking and AI review. Figure 1 shows what each vendor names, and where it relies on a third party. Figure 1.

Confirm each connector in writing, with the direction of sync and who maintains it. A named logo on an integrations page is not the same as a supported two-way flow. ## What the record holds The record is what procurement reads after signature, so test it first. All three extract terms from signed contracts and track renewals. They differ on who owns the fields and on what suppliers can see. Ask each vendor to show these fields on one of your own supplier contracts. | Field | Conga CLM | Docusign CLM | Agiloft | Who owns it | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Renewals and notice dates | Renewal alerts, per its procurement page | Renewal and obligation management in Agreement Manager, included in select IAM plans, per its Agreement Manager page | Tracks renewals, notice periods and supplier commitments | Contract owner | | Supplier obligations and SLAs | Monitors supplier obligations, SLAs, terminations and compliance | Tracks key terms, commitments and deadlines | Tracks supplier commitments | Named obligation owner | | Extracted data | AI-extracted terms and pricing | 100+ pre-trained AI models for contract data | Astra AI review in Word | Legal | | Legacy contracts | Bulk import of legacy and third-party contracts | Consolidates executed agreements into one repository | Not named on the pages we read | Procurement operations | | Amendments | Full Copy or Delta Amendment, linked to the original | Not named on the pages we read | Not named on the pages we read | Legal | | Supplier access | Supplier Portal: suppliers view contracts, track obligations and upload certifications | Not named on the pages we read | Not named on the pages we read | Supplier manager | | Custom fields and rules | Admin setup in Salesforce | Drag-and-drop workflow editor | Fields, approval chains and processes without code | Admin | What the Conga, Docusign CLM and Agiloft record holds, from vendor pages read November 2, 2026. ## Where does Agiloft pull ahead? Agiloft pulls ahead on procurement rules that do not fit a template. Its [procurement page](https://www.agiloft.com/solutions/procurement-contract-management) tracks renewals, notice periods and supplier commitments before they become cost or continuity issues. It names SAP Ariba, Oracle, NetSuite, Coupa and Tradeshift, and its [integrations page](https://www.agiloft.com/platform/integrations) lists Zip. Image: Agiloft procurement page, agiloft.com, captured November 2, 2026. The catch is setup. Agiloft’s own integrations FAQ recommends its Professional Services team or a certified partner for the first implementation. Its [Astra page](https://www.agiloft.com/platform/astra) offers a free AI tier with 1,000 credits a month for review in Microsoft Word. That lets legal test the AI before anyone signs a CLM contract. ## Where does Docusign CLM pull ahead? Docusign CLM pulls ahead on authoring, review and workflow. Its [CLM page](https://www.docusign.com/products/clm) lists 100+ pre-configured workflow steps, a drag-and-drop editor and 100+ pre-trained AI models for contract data. The same page says 2,200 enterprises use Docusign for CLM, and that Gartner named it a CLM Leader for a sixth year. Image: Docusign CLM product page, docusign.com, captured November 2, 2026. Docusign’s [Iris agents page](https://www.docusign.com/products/agents) names ready-made agents for intake and triage, smart redlining against accepted terms and relationship intelligence for vendor reviews. It promises human-in-the-loop approvals and audit trails. The CLM page also claims a 449% ROI, a vendor figure without a method we could read, so ask for it in writing. Image: Docusign Iris agents page, docusign.com, captured November 2, 2026. ## Where does Conga pull ahead? Conga pulls ahead for Salesforce teams and SAP Ariba buyers. Its [October 2026 CLM release](https://conga.com/resources/blog/conga-clm-october-2026-release) added an SAP Ariba connector in which a sourcing award creates the contract. The executed contract then publishes back to the Ariba workspace. Conga says it works with any e-signature tool and covers agreements and amendments. Image: Conga CLM October 2026 release post, conga.com, captured November 2, 2026. The same release added a Supplier Portal and Supplier Sanctions Screening. Suppliers can view contracts, track obligations, upload certifications and message procurement. Screening checks suppliers against the OFAC and UN consolidated lists and returns match or no match, with a person making the final call. On October 29, 2026, Conga announced a [partnership with GC AI](https://conga.com/press/conga-gc-ai-contract-lifecycle-press-release), a legal AI platform used by more than 2,000 legal teams. The release cites Conga research: 95% of organizations use AI in CLM, but only 38% have it fully integrated. Conga also claims more than 10,000 customers, including over 50% of the Fortune 100. ## How do Conga, Docusign CLM and Agiloft score? Agiloft scores 8.0, Docusign CLM 7.9 and Conga CLM 7.8 out of 10. Agiloft wins after-signature tracking, Conga wins procurement fit, and Docusign wins authoring and review and pricing clarity. The spread is two tenths, so your systems should decide, not the total. Figure 2. Conga vs Docusign CLM vs Agiloft score breakdown. Maximum points per criterion in brackets. | Criterion | Max points | Conga CLM | Docusign CLM | Agiloft | Why | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | After-signature tracking | 3 | 2.3 | 2.4 | 2.6 | Agiloft tracks notice periods and supplier commitments; Docusign has renewal automation; Conga tracks obligations and SLAs | | Procurement fit | 2.5 | 2.2 | 2.0 | 2.1 | Conga’s Ariba connector and Supplier Portal; Agiloft names the most S2P systems | | Authoring and review | 2 | 1.8 | 1.9 | 1.7 | Docusign’s workflow editor and redlining agents; Conga authors in Word or Google Docs | | Time to value | 1.5 | 1.1 | 1.1 | 1.2 | Agiloft’s free Astra tier; Conga’s One-Click setup; Docusign ships pre-built steps | | Pricing clarity | 1 | 0.4 | 0.5 | 0.4 | Only Docusign publishes platform plan prices | | Total | 10 | 7.8 | 7.9 | 8.0 | | Conga vs Docusign CLM vs Agiloft scores by criterion, using vendor pages read November 2, 2026. We raised Conga from 7.6 to 7.8 after reading its October 2026 release. The SAP Ariba connector and Supplier Portal lift its procurement fit from 2.0 to 2.2. Agiloft and Docusign CLM keep the scores they hold in our other contract guides. ## How much do Conga, Docusign CLM and Agiloft cost? None of the three publishes a CLM list price. For a CLM vendor that does list one on a cloud marketplace, see our [Icertis pricing guide](https://procuretechguide.com/contracts/icertis-pricing/). Vendr shows a median of $67,132 a year for Agiloft and $18,139 for Conga, though Conga’s figure covers all its products, not CLM alone. Docusign publishes IAM platform plans from $45 per user a month. CLM itself is quoted by sales. | | Conga CLM | Docusign CLM | Agiloft | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Published price | None; the pricing page is a quote form | IAM Starter $45, Standard $50, Professional $80 per user a month; IAM for Enterprise via sales. Docusign IAM plans | None for CLM; Astra Free $0 and Pro from $120 a month. Astra pricing | | Vendr benchmark | Median $18,139 a year across 238 purchases, range $2,190 to $91,315, all Conga products. Vendr Conga page | CLM typically $20,000 to $60,000 a year for 10 to 25 users, and $60,000 to $200,000 for 25 to 100 users. Vendr Docusign page | Median $67,132 a year, range $62,629 to $80,344. Vendr Agiloft page | | What drives the quote | Per-user pricing with annual minimums, per Vendr | User count, contract volume, integrations and support, per Vendr | Quoted for CLM with Astra, or Astra alone | | AI review | Redline AI, generally available October 2026 | AI-Assisted Review listed in the Enterprise plan | Astra credits by tier | Conga, Docusign CLM and Agiloft pricing signals, from vendor pages and Vendr read November 2, 2026. Vendr also says Docusign buyers who bundle CLM with eSignature in the first negotiation often get better pricing. Ask all three for a three-year quote that names every user role, connector, AI credit and services day. Get it in writing, before it becomes a problem at renewal. ## After signature: the checklist - **Renewals:** the notice date is extracted, a person confirms it, and the alert goes to a named owner. - **Obligations:** each supplier obligation and SLA has an owner, a due date and a link to its clause. - **Amendments:** the amendment updates the record, and the original terms stay visible. - **S2P sync:** the signed contract reaches SAP Ariba or Coupa with the right supplier and amounts. - **Supplier evidence:** certifications and screening results are stored against the supplier, with a date. - **Audit trail:** every AI suggestion and approval is logged with a time and a user. ## Red flags in a demo - The Ariba or Coupa flow is shown as a slide, not run live with a test supplier. - The demo runs on sample contracts, never your scanned supplier paper. - Nobody can say whether the AI review in the demo is in the plan you are being quoted. - An ROI or speed figure is quoted with no method behind it. - Configuration is called no-code, but the quote includes weeks of partner services. - Nobody can say in writing who owns migration of your old contracts. ## If none of the three fits If contracts mostly come from sourcing events, your suite’s own contract module may be enough.

Agiloft scores 8.0 because it gives procurement its own rules and the widest set of named procurement connectors. Docusign CLM scores 7.9 on workflow and review built around the signature. Conga scores 7.8, now with an Ariba connector and Supplier Portal. Choose by where your contracts start. The verdict - **Choose Agiloft if** procurement needs custom fields, approval chains and supplier rules without code. - **Choose Agiloft if** you run Coupa, Oracle, NetSuite or Zip alongside SAP Ariba. - **Choose Docusign CLM if** your company already standardized on Docusign eSignature and wants one vendor. - **Choose Conga CLM if** Salesforce is your system of record or SAP Ariba sourcing awards should become contracts. ## Frequently asked questions **Is Agiloft better than Conga?** For procurement teams with their own rules, narrowly yes. Agiloft scores 8.0 to Conga’s 7.8 in our comparison, thanks to no-code configuration and the widest set of named procurement connectors. Conga is the better pick when Salesforce is your system of record, or when SAP Ariba sourcing awards should create contracts. **Is Docusign CLM the same as Docusign eSignature?** No. Docusign eSignature sends and signs documents, while Docusign CLM manages the whole contract: drafting, review, approvals, workflow and the repository after signature. Docusign now sells both as part of its IAM platform. Vendr says buyers who bundle CLM with eSignature in the first negotiation often get better pricing. **How much does Agiloft cost?** Agiloft does not publish a CLM price. Vendr shows a median of $67,132 a year, with deals from $62,629 to $80,344. Agiloft does publish prices for Astra, its contract AI: a free tier with 1,000 credits a month, and a Pro plan from $120 a month. **Does Conga CLM integrate with SAP Ariba?** Yes, since October 2026. Conga’s SAP Ariba connector turns a sourcing award into a contract and publishes the executed contract back to the Ariba workspace. Conga says it works with any e-signature tool and covers agreements and amendments. Ask for a live test with one of your suppliers. **Does Docusign CLM work with Coupa?** Yes. Docusign’s CLM page names Coupa, saying data is shared in real time and contracts can be created or updated in Coupa or Docusign CLM. It also names SAP Ariba, where supplier agreements can be created directly. Confirm the direction of each sync in writing before you sign. **Which CLM is best for Salesforce users?** Conga and Docusign CLM both run inside Salesforce. Conga calls itself the AppExchange leader for contract management, e-signature, document generation and CPQ. Docusign runs CLM across the Salesforce Customer 360. Agiloft integrates with Salesforce but is not built on it, which suits teams whose contracts start outside sales.
