For teams that need discipline built into the quoting process, Conga deserves serious consideration.<\/p>\n"}]},{"main_heading":"","content_block":[{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image_type":"normal","image":341760,"image_link":""}]},{"main_heading":"","content_block":[{"acf_fc_layout":"text","content":"

Considerations<\/h4>\n\n- While Conga offers CRM-agnostic options, its most powerful native integration is with Salesforce.
