While Conga does offer a variety of different templates, it only offers two in the proposal category. So, if you like to keep your options open, you might want to go with Better Proposals instead. We offer more than 200 templates across industries, and all of them are easy to customize.
What's more, our proposal analytics will let you know when your proposal was received, opened, read, printed, forwarded and signed. And if you want to take it a step further, there's always the option to integrate live chat software. That way, your clients can give you instant feedback, which eliminates the need to email back and forth.
Better Proposals has a transparent pricing system based on 3 plans. Depending on the features and the number of users you need, it's easy to see what you'll end up paying in the end. And before you decide to commit, you can always sign up for a free trial.

With Conga, matters are more complicated when it comes to pricing. Simply put, you'll need to request a custom quote through their website. And since they don't offer a free trial, you'll be buying a service you haven't had the chance to try out.
While we both offer customer support, Conga has a region-based system with set working hours. For example, if you're based in Europe, you'll be able to reach them Monday-Friday from 7 am to 6pm GMT. At Better Proposals, on the other hand, we know software questions can pop up at any time of the day. That's why our support team is available more than 20 hours a day, ensuring you get the help you need no matter what time zone you're in.
Hi, I need some help!
Hey Sarah,
can you tell me a little more about what you need?
Every business is struggling in some way or another at the moment but one thing we're finding easy is get proposals signed and deals done thanks to how quick and easy it is for us to create proposals and our clients to sign them
Since Conga is aimed towards mid-sized companies and enterprises, it isn't a great solution for freelancers and small businesses. On the other hand, Better Proposals can take care of anyone, no matter the industry or company size. So, if you're looking for software you can scale up with as needed, Better Proposals is the way to go.
