As 2024 comes to a close, Oneflow’s contract automation platform and its role in reshaping how businesses handle contracts has become increasingly clear. A recent customer survey proves solid efficiency gains achieved with Oneflow.
Automation enables businesses to achieve more with less
Addressing the growing need for businesses to “do more with less”, Oneflow users reported reclaiming an average of 16.7 hours per month, or 4 hours per week, thanks to automated contract workflows. This allows businesses to refocus on strategic priorities without increasing resource costs, effectively “earning back” the time that would otherwise be lost to manual processes.
Assuming one contract is sent each working day (approximately 20 contracts per month), this translates to about 50 minutes saved per contract processed.
For professionals across sales, HR, and legal departments, automated workflows mean focusing on higher-value tasks rather than administrative bottlenecks.
- Sales can close deals faster with personalized proposals and real-time insights synced with their CRM
- HR can instantly send offers to candidates without having to lose momentum in the hiring process
- Legal can simplify contract reviews and approvals, ensuring compliance while reducing delays in the negotiation process
This year also marked significant growth for Oneflow, with over 4,000 paying customers across 41 countries. The expanding customer base reflects a global demand for contract tools to drive efficiencies.

The rise in integrating contracts into existing ecosystem
In 2024, businesses continued to move away from traditional, fragmented contract processes toward integrated, automated workflows.
Oneflow stood out as a solution by offering native integrations with widely used platforms such as HubSpot, Salesforce, Dynamics 365, and recruitment tools like Teamtailor, Jobylon, and Intelliplan.
The survey results emphasize the impact of automation – achieving more with less, especially in the current economic climate, and creating more value for the business.
For teams managing high volumes of contracts, these extra hours freed due to automated workflows have added up to significant productivity gains throughout the year.
Benefits recognized quickly
Another standout trend in 2024 was the speed at which Oneflow users began to see benefits. Half of the survey respondents reported noticing efficiency improvements immediately after implementation.
From eliminating the back-and-forth of email approvals to simplifying signature collection, Oneflow made it easier for users to adopt and integrate contract automation into their workflows.
This year underscored the importance of tools that are not just powerful but also user-friendly, an area where Oneflow has consistently delivered.
