Affinitext

What do you like best?

I like the navigation. It is easy to search for clauses or schedules on Affinitext. The search bar is easy to use and filters through the Contract well. Furthermore the way the Contract is split up with two points of navigation either on the side or in the centre is very beneficial.

What do you dislike?

There needs to be more work done on the tasking of clauses and understanding for each Contract what is relevant and what is not. With the tasks created i have found that a few of them were not relevant to us as a company. We had too many client tasks that were assigned to us and we then had to manage them. Yes, there is a collaborative element where we and the client can share tasks, however i believe it would have been more effective if the Client were assigned their own tasks and then they could choose whether to share them with us or not.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

I would recommend that you understand exactly what you require from Affinitext and make that clear throughout the process in order to streamline the tools provided. Another recommendation would be having a designated resource at least for the first 3 months of setting up Affinitext to help with the teams understanding of how to use it and to provide internal training.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

I am able to capture variations using affinitext. It was very hard to track them before as the tracker we were using did not corrospond with the documents we had. With Variations being stored on personal sharedrives and emails we needed a central place to store everything. Affinitext provides us with that platform.
