Contract Insights

Contract management software is an investment that can help organizations to gain control over their contracts, drive more value through contracting, and increase productivity and efficiency.  Additionally, it can improve transparency, reporting, compliance, and oversight - driving the the most value through comprehensive contract lifecycle management.  User-friendly solutions can be implemented quickly, and with leading providers like CobbleStone Software, implementors act as guides to help system administrators configure their Contract Insight^® system to meet their organizations’ needs. In this article CobbleStone's Training Manager, Nash DeVita, explains the importance of continuing contract management software education.

The emergence of cloud-based technology has positively transformed the way contract management and procurement professionals have navigated their organizations’ source-to-contract software – but how?

The development of cloud-based technology has raised the question, “What are the benefits of a SaaS (Software as a Service) solution versus installing software directly on-premise?"

Contract management systems contain highly sensitive information, and organizations should make data security their top priority when selecting a deployment method for their CLM solution.  Many would argue that contract management SaaS is the ultimate deployment method for software because the data center upkeep duties are left to the provider rather than giving organizations one more solution to manage.  Others may want their IT team to retain control by managing hosting in-house.  While both approaches have up-sides to different organizations, SaaS has become the more popular option due to added benefits and most organizations are choosing to leave the responsibility to the software provider.  This article discusses the benefits of choosing a SaaS solution over on-premise and what you can expect from CobbleStone Software when selecting us to host your CLM software.
