Advanced Auth
Support for phone OTP, knowledge-based auth, and SAML single sign-on to verify signer identity in higher-risk contracts.
IT teams use digital proposal software to reduce approval cycle times, standardize technical and legal content, and maintain auditable records of client agreements across distributed environments.
An IT Manager approves technical scope and ensures proposals align with internal policies. They verify SLAs, security clauses, and cost allocations, and typically require an auditable trail for compliance reviews and budget sign-off processes.
A Solutions Architect customizes technical content and attachments for each proposal, confirms accurate component lists and integrations, and collaborates with sales to secure client acceptance while ensuring technical feasibility.
IT procurement, pre-sales engineering, and managed services teams frequently exchange technical proposals and need an auditable, repeatable signing process.
These teams benefit from templates, role-based permissions, and integrations that reduce manual edits and accelerate contract close times.
Support for phone OTP, knowledge-based auth, and SAML single sign-on to verify signer identity in higher-risk contracts.
APIs to programmatically generate proposals, attach system-generated logs or inventories, and trigger signature requests from internal tooling.
Branding options maintain consistent client-facing documents with corporate logos, legal footers, and authorized signatory information.
Comprehensive event logs capture timestamps, IP addresses, and actions to support dispute resolution and compliance audits.
Granular roles restrict who can edit templates, initiate sends, or access signed documents for security and separation of duties.
Configurable retention policies archive or purge documents to meet internal and regulatory recordkeeping requirements.
A centralized template library keeps proposals consistent, allowing IT teams to store standard SOWs, pricing tables, and technical appendices that reduce repetitive editing and ensure contractual terms remain uniform across clients.
Conditional logic hides or shows sections based on inputs, enabling one template to serve multiple configurations such as different service tiers, hardware options, or optional professional services.
Bulk Send allows sending identical proposals to many recipients while tracking individual responses, which is useful for renewals, standardized contract distribution, and mass vendor acknowledgements.
Prebuilt connectors to CRMs, document storage, and identity providers minimize duplicate data entry and support automated population of client and contract metadata into proposal documents.
