What do you like best about Mitratech HotDocs?

The training we finally received with Seth Hanisek this week. Training was excellent and all of our questions are finally being answered. The technical support members are very helpful. Call wait time is minimal and nearly all technical staff have been super helpful and able to answer all questions answered or provide a different point of reference. All calls are followed up with an email confirming problems have been resolved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mitratech HotDocs?

Lack of response from sales team and the inability of one of your trainers to actually train users - so frustrating. We purchased the software about 2 months ago. The initial training sessions were not useful at all. Emailed and samples over to the trainer without receiving a response. Sent multiple emails to trainer and sales staff asking for an update. Finally switched trainers and received some help. I think that it would be helpful if sales team members understood that each customer - whether they purchase 1 license or 100 - should be treated as though they are the only customer. They need to follow through with the customer to confirm questions are answered, solutions are implemented, and the customer is getting the necessary assistance needed in implementing the software. This isn't like implementing an email program - a lot is involved. If a client is frustrated from the beginning then it makes it very difficult to be happy about the expenditure. One other thing is that the videos are outdated in HotDocs Academy so the platform you use looks different than what is in the vids making it tough to follow along. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Mitratech HotDocs:

1. Make sure you have a solid relationship with the salesperson - maybe find someone else who has used HotDocs and is happy with the sales person.

2. Architect a plan for implementation and roll-out internally

3. Determine if you have an individual in house with programming knowledge - DO NOT RELY on getting training from HotDocs

4. Determine how much your budget will be for using professional services

5. Ask to have a demo with each of the trainers so you can figure out the best one for your users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mitratech HotDocs solving and how is that benefiting you?

Automating document processes. Still getting through the program to set up our documents, but we would like to streamline the process of document production and lower costs for doing business. HotDocs is a program that takes quite a bit of time to plan out before realizing benefits. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Mitratech HotDocs?

Ability to email a link to client, enabling client to run interview. New UI is an improvement over document services. I still recommend HotDocs to everyone but the newest version is somewhat disappointing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mitratech HotDocs?

Advance: No ability to enable document download after client completes interview. Document Services has this feature. Allow sender to control whether or not the document can be assembled and downloaded for client review.

Author: I miss being able to code directly in the templates. This new interface is slow. Instead, I continue using desktop for development and import into Author, then upload to Advance. If you are used to coding directly in the template coding, you will find Author an impediment.

Limitations: HUGE scalability issue. You can only upload 20 templates so if you have interview script with more than 20 bundled templates (which for me is ALWAYS), you will be shut out. This has been reported to HD. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mitratech HotDocs solving and how is that benefiting you?

My clients want to engage with THEIR clients and the interview link is a big feature/benefit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Mitratech HotDocs?

You can automate any complexity of documents with HotDocs. Many other document automation products claim they have document automation, but it's basic and clunky so you can only do simple things like insert whole sections of text or simple date or text fields, and create one document at a time. With HotDocs you can create very customised variations, down to the precise punctuation or formatting of lists. You can capture multiple levels of repeats within repeats, and can also generate 20+ documents at once, from a single interview questionnaire.

I really like how quickly we can develop templates in HotDocs, and create dynamic interviews that make it really easy for users to see only the questions that they should see. We can give them a lot of question by question guidance (in writing or in video) and so create a solution that's not only very fast, but also ensures consistency and compliance, while also delivering real time training to users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mitratech HotDocs?

The licensing model can be a constraint where you have a very large number of possible users, who only need to create documents occasionally. You get best value where you have users that are regularly using the solution, and so you should plan for that when making sure you automate as much as you can for your users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Mitratech HotDocs:

Do your due diligence when looking at alternatives. There are a lot of products claiming they have document automation, but you really need to test them to see what they can do (particularly if the document automation module is an add on to the core part of the solution). Don't rely on a demonstration showing a few fields of an NDA or an employment agreement.

The cost of the licensing is only a part of the overall cost. A cheap tool that can't do what you need it to will be a constraint on your business that could cost you a lot more, particularly if your users refuse to use it or it takes 2 years to get working. If it takes you 4x longer to automate using the cheaper software, or it isn't easy to update templates, your total costs will be higher.

Licensing the software is only part of the overall process. Make sure that you have a plan for how you will get your return on investment. Ensure you have your document templates up to date and ready for automating, and a plan for how you will roll the solution out to your users and ensure successful uptake. Rather than trying to "eat the elephant in one bite", start small, learn and adapt, and continuously improve. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mitratech HotDocs solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use HotDocs to automate packages of legal documents for our customers, and have used it on a wide variety of documents including wills and powers of attorney, loan and security documents, construction contracts, employment documents, court documents, share sale agreements, shareholder agreements, and property documents, plus associated correspondence. You can rely on it for any type of document. The benefits of automation include substantial time savings, and 100% accuracy and consistency.

The specific benefit of HotDocs over other automation software is that you can rely on it to quickly deliver lawyer quality outcomes, so the total return on your investment is higher. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Mitratech HotDocs?

For new users this product is simple to use out of the box. It provides excellent tools that are useful in creating simple automation in a short amount of time.

Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is no spell check for the variable prompts. Also, you have to be careful around the variable fields or risk creating an error. Fortunately there are ways of fixing these accidental errors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
