Does Agiloft work for modern businesses?
Agiloft’s contract lifecycle management software is promoted as a way to automate work, reduce risk and drive revenue. But with customers reporting a dated interface and teething problems, how does it compare to a modern contract automation software like Juro?
This page explores the various features, limitations, and pricing of Agiloft in comparison to Juro’s all-in-one contract automation software.
Agiloft limitations
Agiloft is renowned for its customizability and enterprise-grade features that seek to deliver value at all stages of the contract lifecycle. Targeted at mid-sized to large organizations in all industries, Agiloft attempts to serve a wider audience with lots of different features.
However, it’s possible that this abundance of features comes at the cost of the quality and execution of the features legal and business teams need most when managing contracts.
Not only that, but it’s also common for Agiloft users to find the software overwhelming, largely due to the extensive amount of features and customizations available. This complexity means that the software usually takes a long time to set up and use. It also means that Agiloft users will pay for a lot of features they’ll never need.
According to our research, some of the main pain points users experience with Agiloft include:
- Bulky and unintuitive UI: users have criticize the software for being bulky and difficult to navigate, meaning it may not be ideal for companies looking to empower their commercial teams to self-serve on contracts
- Lengthy adoption and implementation time: Agiloft has a lengthy implementation time. This can prevent legal and business teams from getting to value quickly
- No native eSignature: users that want to sign contracts electronically will need to integrate the software with an eSignature solution
- Lack of support and training: users complain about Agiloft’s lack of clear guidance and training on how to use the software
- Limited integrations: as it's a more dated piece of software, Agiloft only has limited integrations
Unlike Agiloft, Juro’s modern contract automation software designed with contracts in mind, has a user-friendly interface and can be implemented quickly. Let’s explore the various benefits of using Juro for your contracts, and how Juro’s unique, browser-native editor makes the end-to-end contracting process frictionless for users.
Juro benefits

Juro’s rich-text editor allows legal and business teams to create, edit and amend contracts in a user-friendly and intuitive environment.
Since Juro’s editor is designed specifically for contracts, it has a wide range of useful features, including conditional logic, smartfields, natural language Q&A and the capacity to add rich media like images, tables, and GIFs to make contracts more human.
With Juro’s advanced editing functionality, legal and business teams can create beautiful contracts within seconds, and writing a contract is made frictionless for legal and commercial teams alike.
🌐 Collaborate on contracts in real-time
Juro eliminates the need for contract stakeholders to track changes across multiple different platforms and versions when negotiating contracts. Instead, Juro users can leave internal and external comments and red-line contracts securely in one unified workspace.
With Juro, legal teams and those they enable can negotiate contracts in-browser, in real-time. Juro’s rich-text native browser also enables users to set up approval workflows and control which edits and comments are seen by counterparties, giving users complete control over the negotiation process.
📈 Capture and query important contract data
Juro’s data-rich contract repository empowers legal and business teams to capture and query critical contract data with ease. This includes information like the status of a contract, who owns the contract, when renewal dates are approaching and the cost per transaction, among other things.
Juro’s smart contract storage replaces the need to use Google Drive, Box, Sharepoint and local drives to store versions of contracts, as all Juro contracts are built as structured data, meaning they can be quickly queried and tracked in seconds.
With Juro’s unified contract repository, you can always rely on there being a single source of truth for contracts.
🔗 Integrates with the platforms you love
Unlike Agiloft which only integrates with a few other platforms, Juro offers integrations with most of the popular business-wide applications, like Salesforce, HubSpot, Pipedrive, Zapier, Google Drive, DocuSign, Gmail, Workday and Greenhouse.
By keeping commercial users connected to the platforms they know and love, Juro makes it easier for Sales, HR and other departments to confidently self-serve on contracts and built a more efficient contract workflow.
Agiloft pricing
Agiloft offers various different plans for companies, one of which is a free trial. The free trial offers basic contract functionality, and is confined to timer-based rules with only standard integrations.
Agiloft also offers other packages, such as Professional, Professional Extended, Enterprise and Enterprise Extended, all of which have hidden pricing.
However, since Agiloft’s offering is enterprise-grade, it’s likely to be more expensive than most other contract management software. Therefore, if you need a more refined set of contract-specific features, you’ll probably be better off with an end-to-end solution like Juro.
Juro offers flexible plans to suit businesses of all sizes, with intuitive features for every stage of the contract lifecycle. Head over to our pricing page to select a plan that’s right for your business.
