Conga Accelerating Development and Innovation With Their Summer Release


DENVER, CO, and SEATTLE, WA and ORLANDO, FL and SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA and LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM--(Marketwired - Aug 9, 2016) - Conga, provider of one of the most popular applications on the Salesforce AppExchange, Conga Composer, today announces new enhancements to the suite of applications through the Conga Summer Release, now available to all customers. The Conga Summer Release successfully aligns a suite of products aimed at providing customers with an enterprise-grade solution and creates more efficient organizations by optimizing their Salesforce investment with the automation and simplification of data, documents, contract lifecycle management and reporting.

Since the April acquisition of ActionGrid and Novatus, the Conga suite, still anchored by Conga Composer, has expanded to address data management, document generation, contract lifecycle management and reporting. Now, customers can benefit from new enhancements that will further increase productivity and streamline numerous processes.

Conga Novatus v7.0 is now available to all users and includes the following features:

  • Automatic Optical Character Recognition (OCR) Upload allows MS Word and PDF files to be automatically scanned when uploaded so users can run a document search based on specific keywords, or name, in the body of the document

  • Copy Contract Wizard allows users to create a new Contract Profile by making a copy of an existing profile

  • Streamlined Comparison tools allow users to compare PDF, Word, and Excel files more effectively

  • Conga SalesConnect updates include customizable Contract page layout and ability to map custom fields on the Conga Novatus contract page layout back to Conga Novatus

  • Advanced Analytics is now available as a Beta release to select customers and will be available later this year to provide insights into the contracting process to help identify ways to gain efficiency with custom reporting and dashboards

  • Clause Management is now available as a Beta release to select customers and will be available later this year to help identify variances in clauses across contracts, including revisions from vendors and customers

The enhancements in Conga's suite of applications, which have been available since July, are listed below:

  • Conga Composer
    • Reflects the latest Salesforce Summer platform release updates
    • Supports Salesforce Files with Activity Logging
    • Global distribution of AWS images, logos and static resources, increasing speed and performance of the user interface
    • DocuSign "sign-in person"

  • Conga Courier
    • Allows loading of only the reports needed through a new search bar in the Select Reports UI

  • Conga ActionGrid
    • Now available to all users in Sandbox or for download from the AppExchange
    • Adds Wizards to convert list views to Conga ActionGrid views and inserts Visualforce pages into page layouts
    • Customizes views with simplified tool bar and column settings

"We are excited to announce that the Conga Summer Release is now available to all of our customers with exciting new features across all product lines," said Doug Rybacki, Vice President of Product Management.
