The software is very user-friendly, easy on the eyes, and intuitive. It doesn't take a lot of training and the team is quick to apply feedback.
Cons
E-filing is currently taking a bit of time.
Reasons for Choosing Athennian
Keep up with technology and adaptability of the Software/customizable.

Easy to use, modern and powerful
Excellent. We were on Diligent Entities before which was very complicated to use. Athennian has an amazing conversion team. They helped us migrate all of our data and the training was very good.
Pros
- very easy to use - modern interface - excellent support (all support reps are corporate paralegals) - integrates with DocuSign and Google Drive
Cons
- I wish there was more customization on the permission levels and the interface
Reasons for Choosing Athennian
For the same reasons that we left Diligent Entities.
Reasons for Switching to Athennian
- Diligent Entities is way too hard to use. It can do lots of things, but it’s so complicated that it was difficult for our users to actually use the features. - it’s very very old. Diligent has made it look more modern, but when you use it you notice how slow it is. It also can’t integrate with anything because it’s not cloud. - Our company has moved to a cloud only policy and Diligent Entities is not cloud

User Friendly and Progressive Program
I have enjoyed working with this program immensely. I've provided very positive feedback internally to my manager and the Emerging Tech/Start-up lawyer team. It is a comprehensive program which is constantly enhancing its tools and the customer service can't be beat. I look forward to continuing to work with the Athennian team!
Pros
There are so many things I like about this program, but the one thing that really stands out is the user friendly interface. The information is easy to enter and easy to review. The program is fast and allows me to enter corporate information very quickly and efficiently. I would also like to note that Athennian provides the most the fantastic customer service. The team is super responsive and works with me one on one to tailor/format documents in our firm standard which expedites the preparation of documents.
Cons
There isn't really anything I don't like about this program. Any issues I've had have been in connection with formatting of our precedents, however, as previously mentioned the Athennian team has worked with me to quickly and efficiently make any changes I need.
Reasons for Choosing Athennian
Our firm also uses GlobalAct, but our Emerging Tech/Start-up group uses Athennian for new emerging tech group companies.
