It doesn't need a lot of work, it gives you your documents straightforward. > > **Cons**: Worked for me like a charm, so I don't have any con to share, but depending on your use case and your specific need you may find them, the best way is to try it and evaluate. ----- ### "Very dissatisfied." — 5.0/5 > **Jeffrey** | *4 March 2019* | Legal Services | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: I used this software for years and put a lot of time and effort into the program. There were no subscriptions. You paid for the software and it was yours. I did pay for an upgrade to HotDocs 11. > > **Cons**: Now that the company's pricing has changed, I was told that I would have to purchase a new monthly, per user subscription to re-install what I already paid for onto a new computer that replaced my old one. > > Due to the pricing changes, I am left with the decision to abandon hundreds, if not thousands, of hours of my time because the new owners have priced me out of the continued use of software I have already paid for. ----- ### "I have found HotDocs to be incredibly difficult to understand and work with." — 2.0/5 > **Jeffrey** | *5 March 2018* | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: The concept is great, but the implementation is poor; the videos are not much help. I have not found customer service to be of great assistance. > > **Cons**: It is difficult to understand, difficult to set up, and difficult to work with. I have read the instruction manual, taken the the three day course, and am still having problems with setting it up. ----- ### "Best Product for Document Automation" — 5.0/5 > **Michael** | *10 November 2016* | Legal Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Huge time saver Generate documents in fractions of the time > > **Cons**: Takes time to create templates Must have extensive knowledge of word Take time to learn how to use the software > > The quintessential software for document automation. One of the best software (if not the best) for this purpose. It can take some time to learn all the available features to use in document creation but once start to understand the basics then you can start to unlock the true potential for this software. Very robust and the possibilities are endless. Generating documents and pleadings now take a fraction of the time they normally would using any other software. I highly recommend this product. ----- ### "HotDocs is easily one of my top 10 successes in 25 years of working in legal I.T." — 5.0/5 > **Mark** | *2 March 2018* | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: HotDocs saves us a lot of time drafting complex documents. The software is well-written, and reliable. It is highly cost-effective. > > **Cons**: HotDocs requires a time investment on the front end, wherein the document construction process must be formally defined and articulated. (To be sure, this task would be common to any effort or tool to automate the construction of complex documents.) HotDocs also requires a fair amount of care and feeding, but not so much because the product requires it but rather because of the base documents and the process change. I recommend that any customer find a HotDocs partner that can assist with building and maintaining the workflows, and base documents. > > Great efficiency. ----- Page: 1 / 4\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.com.au/software/112463/hotdocs?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.com.au/software/112463/hotdocs) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
