Summize vs. Conga: CLM Compared Side by Side

Two approaches to CLM

Conga CLM is platform-centric, built as part of a broader digital commerce ecosystem focused on process automation and cross-functional integration. As a result, implementations often require significant alignment across Legal, RevOps and IT. Summize is workflow-centric, embedding CLM directly into Microsoft Word, Outlook, Teams and CRM - driving faster adoption and quicker contracting without heavy platform configuration.

How Convey rebuilt legal trust with their CLM

When Convey’s new legal team - made up of just two people - joined the business, they stepped into an environment where the legal function wasn’t fully aligned with the broader goals and interests of the company.

Summize has since brought consistency, transparency, and control to Convey’s contracting process, enabling the business to collaborate smoothly and move much faster than before.
