March 29, 2019 5.0 I have chosen, planned and implemented two different systems with Cobblestone for two very different businesses in two completely different fields. It can be customized to fit almost any need a legal department might have. When people see how powerful and versatile it is, they are always amazed! It is a cost effective stream-lining solution for many in-house legal department tasks and projects. Pros The ability to customize the software is one of the best features as it provides functionality where different legal categories can be customized within the system easily. The level of support from Cobblestone is huge. Reps are so helpful. I can bring them a scenario and they can recommend ways to accomplish the goal. This is a smart company run by a lot of very smart and dedicated people. Cons I really haven't found any cons in the implementation and use of this software. I'm a big proponent of Cobblestone Systems/Contract Insight. Review Source CH Christer H. Project Manager Information Technology and Services Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "We will at last gain control over our contracts!" March 5, 2025 4.0 So far, so good. We are just in the beginning of the installation process. Exited to get it in place to be able to take the next step in Contract Management. Pros Powerful. The flexibility in configuration and possibility to follow the complete contract Lifecycle. For our security demands where a deployed solution was the only option, Cobblestone have the best system on the market to this day. Cons Cobblestone AI solution with VISDOM needs more work to get better at pulling contract data in more languages. Review Source NC Natalia C. Ceo Alternative Medicine Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Helpful for building contracts " March 5, 2025 3.0 N/a- I am still experimenting the app so I don’t have a formed opinion yet. But pleased with the contractual part of it. Pros Keeps contracts and endorsements organized and looking professional. Cons I expected to see some templates or get more support. Review Source LH Larry H. Head engineer Alternative Dispute Resolution Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "All jn one contractors tome saver" February 27, 2025 4.0 At first it was overwhelming with all the new features yo have to learn where to find what you need with in the program. But one you use it for a few weeks. Its a time saver. Pros Its a Simpler Way if uour a Trade Contractors To Plan, Schedule & Manage Jobs For Home Builders. Cons It took a little whike to remember where everyyhing is in the platform. It was kind of jumbled all to together at first. Review Source WC Wendy C. IT Contract Administrator Insurance Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Cobblestone has been a wonderful contract management tool! Its extremely easy to navigate!" December 19, 2017 5.0 All IT Contracts are stored in one central place Pros Ever since Cobblestone has been rolled out at my company, IT now has visibility of its contract inventory. Contract owners receive the automated email alerts informing them of their contract expiration's which has prompted action on their behalf and are able to avoid lapse in support, or reinstatement penalties. I am able to distribute 90 day rolling contracts to all CIO's to make them aware of their respective areas. Emailing contracts from the systems to the contract owners makes it extremely convenient. The ability to customize the fields of a contract record, ease of adding contracts, vendors, employees has been very simple. As the administrator of the system, I have alot of flexibility to modify the configurations without assistance from Cobblestone. There are very helpful tutorials in case I require additional assistance. The Cobblestone staff is extremely efficient and friendly. The Help Desk portal to place tickets for technical assistance is great! You receive assistance immediately. Matt Hughes my account rep has been fantastic! Very helpful and always available. The ability to add an unlimited amount of attachments to a contract record and Ad Hoc reporting mechanism has been very beneficial. The ability to report on all the metadata is quick and simple when I have been tasked with providing contractual data. I would highly recommend Contract Insight as a contract management tool. Cons Everything is out of the box. For special configuration needs to be customized which is not a problem. The hourly rates are affordable for custom configuration. Review Source JM Joshua M. Manager, Intellectual Assets Retail Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Tailored to your needs" March 18, 2020 5.0 An increase in business people responses regarding contract status, and a decrease in missed deadlines. Customer service is wonderful and the entire Cobblestone team is always willing to assist. Pros I like how Cobblestone can be tailored to your internal processes. We do not use the contract system like other users . We alert our business people with notices/alerts when their contracts are nearing expiration/auto-renewal date. Our Cobblestone representative took time to work with Legal directly to design the required workflows. Later, we launched a new contract policy and both our representative and software team was able to integrate our policy's contract notice requirements and the required workflows into our system. Cons A little difficult to navigate at first, but this was likely due to the need for learning the system and its functionality rather quickly. However, our customer service representative was always willing to assist with navigation questions, show system shortcuts, and even provide some basic training. Review Source BP Brizl P. IT Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "A Game Changer for Our Contract Management Processes" February 7, 2023 4.0 It is an invaluable resource for our company as an IT user. The software's user-friendly interface and extensive features make it simple to manage and keep track of every aspect of our contracts from beginning to end. For us, the ability to automate contract processes and boost productivity has been a game-changer. Now, we can streamline contract approvals, quickly locate and retrieve important contract information, and easily keep track of expiration dates. To ensure that everyone is on the same page, the software has also improved communication between departments and stakeholders. CobbleStone Contract Insight has all in all surpassed our expectations, and we heartily endorse it for anyone looking to automate their contract management procedure. Pros It has significantly improved our organization's ability to manage contracts. We can keep track of every one of our contracts and their specific details in one location thanks to the user-friendly interface and customizable dashboards. For us, it has also been a game-changer to have the ability to quickly search and retrieve contracts based on particular criteria. The software integrates with other systems without a hitch, and the customer support staff is always on hand to help with any problems we may run into. Cons One of the main difficulties is the interface, which can initially be difficult to use. It can take some time to get used to all the features and functions, and the learning curve for new users can be steep. Additionally, the software can be slow to load, especially when working with larger contract databases, which can hurt productivity. As it can be challenging to derive useful insights from the data, the reporting and analytics features could also use some improvement. Review Source PH Pam H. Contracts/Records Specialist Government Administration Used the software for: 2+ years ### ""Contract Management Team of One" no longer drowning." May 13, 2020 5.0 CobbleStone's staff is so responsive to my questions and continue to support my ability to improve how I use the software. The recent need to work-from-home, showed me and the upper management of my agency, just how amazing and necessary my Contract Insight software is to our continued ability to serve the public and keep all the balls in the air. Pros Love the emailed Alerts. I was drowning trying to keep up with a large volume of unique agreements for a government agency, until CobbleStone's Contract Insight software provided me with the tools to rein in all the details in a readily retrievable, useable system and never miss a deadline. Cons At first the software had some labels and categories that could not be changed which was a minor inconvenience, but in the last two years Contract Insight has become supremely configurable and customizable. Review Source SF Sharon F. Communications Manager Biotechnology Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Trial Phase Review" October 27, 2020 5.0 So far, our overall experience has been the trial phase that Cobblestone was kind to extend for us. We have had multiple training sessions and I have learned a great deal about the system in a short period of time. I give that credit to \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\], who is our Cobblestone support person. \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] is a true professional: responsive, extremely knowledgeable about the product, and patient as can be. We feel very fortunate to have been paired with \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\]. Pros The system is intuitive and easy to learn. The support staff during the trial phase (that is where our company is currently), is outstanding! Every feature we asked for they are able to accommodate. Cons I have tried to watch a few of the video tutorials to learn features on my own and how to navigate the system. I have found that some of these are boring and therefore not easy to follow. It would also be more helpful if there were a search function so you could put it what you want to learn about and the tutorials would be displayed. It is not so easy to find topics in the Wiki function. Reason for choosing CobbleStone Contract Insight customer service, ease of use and fit our requirements Review Source KN Kelly N. Contracts Coordinator Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Cobblestone Review" April 10, 2017 4.0 We have used Cobblestone contract management system for almost 3 years now to help us manage our vendor contracts. It has been a huge success in keeping track of our pending contracts as well as active and expiring contracts. We use to track down expiration dates, renewals and other reminders for any contracts. The system is extremely user friendly with training new employees, keeps excellent data of important data for our contracts as well as upcoming reminders that will need to be sent out. We have many features that have helped us manage our contracts by personalizing them by our managers so they can easily use the system and reports. Any questions/concerns/issues have been promptly answered by our rep and the customer service team. Pros Very user friendly, easy to move through the system to use and very useful for managing our many contracts. Cons There are a couple of things we wish we can personalize for our company but the IT team is looking into it for us. Review Source NB Nina B. System Analyst Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Used for over 5 years and still going" August 28, 2018 5.0 I have worked with many software companies and Contract Insight have invested almost as mush as we have with ideas and modifications. A true partner. Pros Easy to customize each user experience, but still robust enough to deal with complexity of a state agency. User can easily export data without System Administration help. Cons Nothing at this time do I like least of the CLM system Review Source KM Karen M. Contract Compliance Specialist Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Contract Software" August 31, 2018 4.0 This has been a great experience learning the system and working with the Cobblestone staff. We are adding modules as we discover additional ways to organize a very large agency's needs in this area. Pros This software is excellent tool for our organization. It has provided a organized method to keep all the contract and contracting actions in one software providing us the opportunity to have an organized structure. The staff are awesome and always ready to help. Cons Nothing that I have found yet. I have worked with Cobblestone for about 8 months and it is able to do anything I have ask for so far.

Corporate Counsel Financial Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Best choice for features-to-price ratio, great customer support" November 13, 2018 5.0 The software itself is half the appeal, and the other half is the customer service. Our rep, goes above and beyond. The level of attention and responsiveness is to such a degree that we feel we're their only customer - we truly appreciate it. Pros We have the Express version. Fully customizable, down to the contract entry fields/formatting. Ad hoc reports. An abundance of features and ways to organize documents. I highly recommend the 1-month free trial to really get a sense of whether the system will suit your needs. Cons Opens a new tab with almost every selection; I end up with several opened tabs after just 10-15 minutes of activity. Need to manually delete items one by one; no group-delete functionality (i.e. the pre-populated "Contract Categories" list). Review Source SW Shanon W. Contracts Manager Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Top notch customer service and product " December 9, 2017 5.0 Pros I like the fact that you can customize just about everything yourself within the program so you rarely need assistance with configuration once it's all set up. Cons How users can only be assigned to one department at a time and solely individual contracts can be assigned to people. Review Source JB Jayna B. Regulatory Affairs / Legal Department Used the software for: ### "Cbeyond Communications, LLC" December 19, 2013 5.0 Cbeyond loves how easy the CobbleStone Contract Insight system is to use. We've been using it for over a year now and love it. We evaluated numerous contract management systems before we settled on CobbleStone. It's more than just an "out of the box" solution. We were able to tailor it to meet the specific needs of our contract management policy. The online help could use a little revamping but Brad and Kelley have been so helpful that it's not been a hindrance. Review Source CD Caroline D. University Contract Administrator Used the software for: ### "Cobblestone - Contract Insight" March 31, 2015 5.0 Cobblestone serves our contract database needs at James Madison University in a very user friendly platform. We have made easy customizations to better fit our particular needs and methods. The team at Cobblestone has been a pleasure to work with over the years.

I really appreciate our account manager \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] Cons I don't have any cons. The product has been great so far. Review Source ND Nash D. Contract Manager III Telecommunications Used the software for: 2+ years ### "When Value Meets Functionality; Or, A Whole Greater Than Its Sum" July 6, 2026 5.0 My overall experience with Contract Insight has been overwhelmingly positive. The platform provides strong value, extensive configurability, and the flexibility needed to support complex contract processes. Once the initial setup is complete, the system becomes a powerful, highly tailored solution that aligns closely with organizational needs. Daily use is reliable, intuitive, and efficient, and the level of administrative control allows the product to grow and adapt with the business. Overall, Contract Insight has proven to be a dependable and impactful tool for managing our contract lifecycle and allows me as the primary administrator to serve my internal customers far more easily (and without CobbleStone's or my IT Dept.'s help!). Pros Contract Insight delivers clear and immediate value for contract managers and end users when comparing its cost to the breadth and depth of functionality included. The platform offers an extensive feature set without the high price point often seen in comparable contract management solutions, making it a strong choice for organizations looking to maximize capability while maintaining cost efficiency. A major strength of Contract Insight as a contract management tool is its exceptional flexibility. The system is highly configurable, enabling administrators to tailor metadata, fields, notifications, layouts, and workflows to organizational needs without heavy IT involvement. This flexibility extends to permissions‑based access controls, which allow granular, role‑specific configurations that support governance and operational clarity. The customization capabilities ensure that the solution aligns directly with internal processes rather than forcing teams into a rigid, vendor‑defined structure. While the initial setup requires thoughtful effort, it is well‑justified. The configuration phase ensures that the environment is built around an organization’s unique requirements rather than defaulting to generic templates. The result is a platform that feels truly owned by the business and can evolve as processes mature. Administrators maintain meaningful control over both functionality and future scalability. Reporting and dashboard tools further enhance this control, offering strong analytical capabilities that help teams unlock insights and monitor performance efficiently. Additionally, the system’s flexible purchasing options make adoption and expansion more accessible, allowing organizations to scale at their own pace. Cons At times, the user experience can feel click‑heavy. Certain actions require navigating through multiple screens or confirmations to complete a task, which can slow workflow efficiency when the extra steps aren’t clearly necessary. Navigation patterns can also be somewhat inconsistent across different modules. Similar actions may take different paths depending on where you are in the system, which occasionally makes it harder to find specific functions quickly. Additionally, because the platform is highly configurable, new administrators may encounter a learning curve. Understanding how all the configuration options interact takes time, especially for those new to contract lifecycle management tools.

Business Services Manager Government Administration Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Contract Insight is a great product that keeps getting better" July 20, 2026 5.0 From the perspective of managing the our procurement program, the product is scalable, customizable, and the customer service has been great. I love the fact that are continuously improving the system, but not pushing updates and fixes out daily. The updates are announced and predictable. It makes preparing our staff easier for transitions. Pros Contract Insights helps us track thousands of contracts over many years in a central system. The automated workflows eliminate most previously manual administrative tasks. The customizable ad hoc reports are easy to configure, sort, and download. The audit trail makes sure we compliance with state contracting requirements. Cobblestone is quick to integrate customer suggestions in updates and the product keeps getting better. Cons For whatever reason, the web-based application is sometimes slow to respond to inputs and to update. That is the number one complaint I hear across the organization. Review Source Janapher S. Nursing Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "A Comprehensive Contract Management Solution That Improves Organization and Efficiency" July 20, 2026 4.0 My overall experience with CobbleStone Contract Insight has been positive. It is a reliable and comprehensive solution for managing contracts, documents, and workflows. The platform provides useful tools for improving organization, compliance, and efficiency. While there is a learning curve, the features become valuable once users become familiar with the system. Pros I liked the centralized approach to contract and document management. CobbleStone Contract Insight helps keep agreements organized, makes it easier to track important dates and contract milestones, and improves visibility throughout the contract lifecycle. The ability to manage documents, workflows, and approvals in one place helps create a more efficient process. Cons The biggest challenge is that the platform can feel complex for new users due to the wide range of features and customization options. The initial setup and learning process may require additional training, and simplifying navigation could make the experience more user-friendly.

The automation capabilities have dramatically reduced our administrative workload, and the search functionality makes locating specific contracts effortless. Cons The initial learning curve can be somewhat steep for new users, requiring dedicated onboarding time. Some advanced features could benefit from more detailed documentation.
