Real-life stories of document generation success
Table of contents
Documents are critical to almost any business. And while every company is different, most require a wide array of documents to manage the end-to-end revenue lifecycle—from proposals, quotes, and invoices to contracts, work orders, welcome letters, and more.
But manual document creation is slow and inefficient—not to mention the risk of sending out documents with missing data, incorrect branding, or outdated messaging.
That’s where automated document generation comes in.
Document generation software lets you create business documents quickly and easily, using fully automated workflows and customized templates. And with a solution like Conga Composer, you can embed document generation capabilities into any website, application, or platform—and populate your documents with data from any system of record.
While all that sounds great in theory, it can be hard to visualize the countless ways a document generation solution applies to real-life scenarios. Here are four examples of how Conga customers used document generation to transform their business—and deliver real business results.

William Penn Foundation streamlines grant distribution
The William Penn Foundation is a philanthropic organization dedicated to increasing educational opportunities for low-income families in the greater Philadelphia area.

Despatch Industries delivers quotes up to 12x faster
Engineering and manufacturing company Despatch Industries needed a replacement for its manual quoting processes. For years, the company’s sales reps used a mail merge program for quote generation—an inefficient process that resulted in unprofessional, inconsistent, and error-prone quotes. After implementing Conga Composer, quoting options were streamlined to a single, flexible template—and quotes could be generated with a single click. This allowed the Despatch team to generate simple quotes in just a minute or two—rather than the previous 5-10 minutes—and the time to create a more complex, detailed quote dropped from an hour to just 5 minutes.
