Nawdeep PuranikCRAP!!!! Was working on a doc for over two hours when it suddenly frozen saying: "oops, unexpected snag". Two hours of work out of the window with no opportunity to recover. Waste of time, effort. Rubbish [email protected][email protected]!
Free trial is a scam. They claim to support unlimited esignatures but they don't allow you to download documents without using a paid tier. Pure bait & Switch.
WOW!!!! Terrible customer service.
We signed up for the Essentials package and they have been double charging us for 7 months. Somewhere during that time they changed our plan without our consent and now we're being billed 2x as much and then continued to charged us twice a month.
I've been trying to get this resolved for months and the agents do not seem to understand English well. Needless to say they are not giving us the refund it should be....which now is in the hundreds of dollars and it's been a huge waste of time. Their service is not worth it.
I'm now having to get this resolved through the bank and looking for an alternative to PandaDocs...never never again...OMG
How on EARTH can you be a company that does ONE THING: documents, and your website NOT WORK? HOW! Imagine you go to the shopping mall, and constantly that shopping mall is closed, or leaking, or flooded, or lights are out.
Tell me, who on earth would ever visit that place again?
Guys, honestly and seriously, as a business owner to another, FIX YOUR DAMN SITE. This is YOUR storefront! You are a digital-first business, act like it!
Really buggy software, difficult UI, and shabby customer service. My subscription autorenewed on an annual plan billed quarterly. I tried to cancel the day after, as we had moved to Hellosign, and they wouldn't let us out of the contract.
Run away.
We were using a monthly plan, where we have CRM integration to automatically generate contracts using a template, and that uses Zapier. We were offered a plan upgrade, and after that it stopped working. When I complained to the support, they said it was Zapier's problem, I opened a call with them and they told me that this is a problem already known and not solved by PandaDoc. The account manager has stopped responding to emails and does not answer calls. One of the worst media I've ever seen.
Awful customer service.
I canceled my trial, but kept getting notifications that they were trying to charge me afterwards, so I contacted customer service, and while they assured me I wouldn't get charged because it was canceled now, days later, I'm still getting attempts to charge it!
When I contact customer service, the agent immediately leaves the live chat.
THEY'RE AVOIDING ME!
I'm leaving my card frozen and contacting a lawyer if this keeps up in 30 days. This feels so predatory!
This software is so buggy. Im not sure how this company is still around. The idea is great but poorly executed. I hate them. They cost me so much in time. Oh yea and way overpriced for what they offer.
What a disappointment. After reviewing other options, we selected Pandadocs as a reasonably priced alternative for documents. Right from the outset we had difficulties with access and log ins. Somehow two accounts were opened and we were billed twice. For most of the period before we cancelled, we had almost no access due to log in problems. Support was slow and only via email. When asked to speak directly with someone to discuss the billing problem and access issues, I was told it was not possible. There was no remorse or intent to assist or explain. The product itself was just ok; the template gallery was lacking. It is a shame that we wasted time on what could be a great product with good service.
Pandadoc is mainly used for eSign and proposals. DocuX is all purpose platform for all your documents including all docs/contracts, eSign and proposals.
Pandadoc was built primarily for Sales teams. DocuX is built for all teams- Sales, Legal, Finance, HR, Procurement, freelancers, everyone.
No more glitches, broken workflows or starting all over again. We have worked very hard to make DocuX robust and easy & intuitive at the same time.
Automate all the noise that passes for work. Docs are segregated, prioritized, sorted, and controlled for you. It is your new-age Virtual Assistant.
Say goodbye to docs and contracts scattered across versions, devices, emails, tools, and users. With DocuX, every doc/contract is a reliable, single source of truth.
Move all collaboration and reviews out of mailbox and scattered tools onto the doc. With DocuX, 100% of the internal and external collaboration happens on-the-doc.
