How Dock 365 Compares to Concord

Visibility

Connected repository

Every contract lives in one connected repository, linked to related contracts, vendors, customers, invoices, and projects—with AI automatically extracting key obligations, clauses, and dates.

Compliance

Audit trail

Stay on top of every activity and version so there are no surprises about what happened to contracts during audit season.

Speed

AI-assisted

Draft directly from templates and a shared clause library in Word, rather than Concord's own in-app editor, then let AI run first-pass reviews before a contract reaches you. Approval workflows route and remind automatically.

Scalability

Grows with you

Add new departments, users, or contract volume without licensing a separate platform—Dock 365 grows on the Microsoft 365 tenant you already run, instead of requiring new seats in a standalone app.

Security

Microsoft standards

Built natively on Microsoft 365 so every contract stays inside your own tenant, backed by SOC 2 Type II certification, instead of a separate cloud environment your security team has to assess on top of what they already manage.

Built for teams. Loved worldwide.

Frequently asked questions

  • We don't have a dedicated in-house contracts person right now. Is Dock 365 still worth it for us?

    Yes. Dock 365 replaces the bottleneck rather than recreating it: configurable approval workflows route review and sign-off automatically to the right people, so no single person has to be the gatekeeper for every contract request.

  • Our contracts are scattered across email, SharePoint, and personal drives, with no clear view of what's signed or expiring. Can Dock 365 actually bring that together?

    Yes. Dock 365 gives you a single, searchable repository for every contract, regardless of which department created it or which platform it started in — with keyword search across the full text, so you can find what you need without knowing which folder or inbox it's sitting in.

  • How does Dock 365 stop everything from bottlenecking through one person?

    Configurable workflows route contract review, redlining, and approval automatically to the right person, with clear visibility into status at every stage. That removes the need for a single in-house contracts person to be the gatekeeper for every request. Requests can also be triaged based on priority or urgency.

  • Can we tell which version of a contract is the most current one?

    Yes. Dock 365 maintains a single version-controlled record for every agreement, with a full history of edits, redlines, and approvals. This ensures staff and partner facilities are always work from the latest version.

  • We're growing fast and expect to handle a much higher volume of similar contracts. Can Dock 365 keep up?

    Yes. Standardized templates and clause libraries let you generate consistent, compliant agreements in minutes instead of drafting from scratch. This means that your paperwork burden does scale at the same rate as new facilities or service lines you're building
