### "A must have for any business having to deal with contracts on a day to day business."

March 30, 2022

5.0

Before we got on board with Updraft, all contracts were put together manually. These were of varying timelines and required proactive monitoring that could be better used elsewhere. With Updraft, we were able to cut times spent on generating, filing and keeping a tab on contracts by nearly 85%. It is only by chance that we came across Updraft, but it has immensely added value to the day to day running of the business.

Pros

The biggest advantage we experienced was in the time taken to draft a new contract. Using templates that were already available made it extremely easy to pick and choose what we needed. To add to that, dynamic contracts based on a short interview with the clients, while setting up various deadlines and clauses made it so much more easier to keep track of. Gone are the days when we needed to spends hours or days reviewing and checking up on files. A complete time-saver solution with a reasonable price bracket.

Cons

Our only gripe is the subscription based model. Since 90% of the industry has moved their business to the cloud, it has become common place and we have to take it as a cost of doing business.

April 17, 2018

5.0

Pros

It is very easy to use and provides integration with the main storage we are using. The customer service is very responsive as well.

Cons

Nothing much really but could be a lot cheaper will do. Other than that, the software and its customer service are perfect!

### "Easy back-ups of a Wordpress website"

December 5, 2019

4.0

Quite easy to use and gives peace of mind. Until now no complaints about it.

Pros

The software is customer friendly and back-ups websites to external storage. It is quite flexible and you can store back-ups to several locations.

Cons

The main drawback is that it does not automatically back-up the website before events like installing updates or plugins. Also updating from a free to premium account eans reinstalling the software. This might be done more efficiently.

### "The sofware is very easy to use and anyone can use it. It saves time and is good value for money!"

April 2, 2015

5.0

Agreements and other frequently used documents are custom made to meet not just legal requirements but specific client needs. There is less likelihood of mistakes caused by using own precedent data base where one can miss amending certain clauses to cater for a particular scenario/ agreement. It is also useful to know that one has the support of legal experts who provide legal support free of charge. They also ensure that all agreements used by clients are up to date with changes in legislation. Having additional agreements (which are not frequently used by the client) which can easily be generated from the system is very beneficial. The fact that it is web based means it can be accessed from anywhere. The document storage allows one to save various drafts and have a record to track amendments made and etc.

### "It's the perfect plugin for any Backup or Recovery needs"

July 13, 2017

4.0

Pros

Automatic Weekly Backups - so that I don't have to do anyyyything. It was also pretty useful for the migration of our website.

Cons

Not that cheap though, but they offered us a 20% discount cause we are a non-profit, which seemed fair to us.

### "Origin System Contract Management "

March 19, 2015

4.0

As a legal drafting and contract storage tool the Origin system has proved to be a valuable tool to assist in managing our contractual risk. We are still in the process of implementing the full capability to allow for drawing reports and end to end contract management. The Origin team is readily available to attend to any development requirements and assist in addressing user queries. The system is user friendly with users both within and wide of the legal department finding value in the system.

March 24, 2015

The system is very easy to use, specifically in a customer contact centre such as ours. It takes only a few minutes to produce a contract that complies with all current and applicable legislation. The support from Origin is great, contracts and questionnaires are regularly updated and it's very useful that the end product is delivered in both MS Word and PDF formats.

A user friendly system was a paramount criteria when we first engaged Origin 2 years ago. They have met this criteria, and together with their back up service we have an excellent contract generation system within our organisation which we know is uniform, up to date with law and most importantly easy to use.

the system is userfriendly and makes my life easy. i use it to draft agrements that would have cost us a fortune if we had to ask external attorneys draft for us. i also use it to save the agrements and it keeps record of everything relating relating to specific matter.
