Responsive highlights that proposal requests frequently involve multiple teams.
With PandaDoc, users can build team workspaces, define custom roles, and utilize reporting for performance tracking. Document access allows customers to collaborate with your team.
One of my reps tried it on the first day everything was up and running. I’m pretty sure he was able to create, send, and even receive a completed quote within minutes. A few other reps were there to witness it too. I guess you can say everyone was hooked after that.

Many Responsive users find the standard demo requirement to be an obstacle when selecting software. There is not an option for a free trial, and response time for the demo could take a day or two to set up. At PandaDoc users can opt for a demo, free 14-day trial, or both. Find out why PandaDoc has earned the trust of thousands of users and is the preferred software for businesses big and small.
Our apps adapt to your device’s interface, cutting out the need for a browser when signing documents or checking updates. With PandaDoc, you can sign and send your documents from anywhere.

See the page view duration and the number of document views per signer. Version control protects previous document versions, so feel free to make changes. Assign team roles, generate reports, and track activity and document progress. Team roles can be assigned, reports generated, and activity tracked to monitor document progress.
While Responsive highlights its content library and asset management platform, PandaDoc provides a more comprehensive solution incorporating rich media, graphics, and content blocks.

Proposal flexibility in Responsive is limited by its insufficient design tools. Create proposals exactly how you want with PandaDoc’s comprehensive design tools. After you finish, save your document as a template for easy access when working on subsequent RFPs.
