Fabasoft Contracts vs Medius Contract Management

Fabasoft Contracts is cloud-based software for managing agreements from preparation and review through approval and archiving. Teams can create contracts from templates and clause libraries, extract details such as parties and notice periods, and use AI to check clauses and regulatory requirements against customizable checklists. Identified risks are highlighted for review. Predefined workflows support approvals and signatures with internal and external partners. The product includes advanced electronic signatures aligned with the EU eIDAS Regulation, metadata-based deadline tracking, calendar and list views, and email or push notifications. Its Time Travel feature records changes across a contract’s lifecycle. Contract storage is certified under the IDW PS 880 auditing standard. Access uses rights and roles and two-factor authentication. The External Area supports document exchange, negotiation and digital signing with outside parties. Fabasoft describes integrations with SAP and Microsoft, and selectable certified data storage in Austria, Germany or Switzerland. A free 28-day trial is available; pricing is on request. Some functions, including legal file management, OCR, OData queries and interactive reports, require separate or volume-based licensing.

Medius Contract Management is a cloud service for managing contract records from creation through termination and archiving. Teams can create and edit contract types with templates, metadata, descriptions, and business-specific requirements. Automated reminders help track renewals, milestones, dates, and other lifecycle activity. Search filters contracts by suppliers and historical data, while links connect parent and child contracts, agreements, subcontracts, renewals, and documents. Reports and analytics cover contract data, negotiations, terms, and costs. DocuSign integration supports electronic signing on desktop, tablet, or mobile, with a PDF issued after signing; e-signature is not built in. Microsoft Office integration captures supplier redlines. The standalone application does not require ERP integration, and Medius offers 100+ ERP connectors, including SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, NetSuite, and Infor. It is available on the web, Android, and iOS. The product is a paid add-on to AP Essentials or AP 360, at additional cost with a quote required. Medius says cloud services run on Microsoft Azure and use TLS and role-based access controls; its Trust Center lists ISO 27001:2022, ISO 9001, and SOC 1 Type 2 and SOC 2 Type 2 reports.
