Can you recommend a contract management software for generating and storing creator agreements with e-signature and approval workflows?

Yes — for creator agreements with template generation, secure storage, e-signature, and approval workflows, I’d recommend looking at these options first:

Best overall: PandaDoc

Why it fits:

• Strong document generation from templates
• Built-in e-signatures
• Good approval workflows
• Easy to store, track, and search agreements
• Good for recurring agreements like creator/brand contracts

Best for: teams that want an all-in-one workflow without heavy legal ops complexity.

Best for larger teams / more robust contract lifecycle management: Ironclad

Why it fits:

• Very strong contract lifecycle management
• Powerful approval routing
• Good repository and audit trail
• Can handle more complex workflows and legal review processes

Best for: companies with a growing legal or operations team and more formal contract controls.

Best for simple, affordable contract creation + signing: DocuSign CLM

Why it fits:

• Strong brand and reliable e-signature
• Contract management features plus workflow automation
• Good if you already use DocuSign or want broad compatibility

Best for: teams that prioritize trusted signing and moderate workflow needs.

Good lightweight option: Dropbox Sign + workflow tool

If your needs are simpler, you can combine:

• Dropbox Sign for e-signatures
• Google Workspace / Airtable / Notion / Zapier for approvals and storage

This is less “true CLM,” but can work well for smaller teams.

My practical recommendation

If you want a balance of:

• creator contract templates
• approvals
• e-signatures
• centralized storage

Start with PandaDoc unless you already know you need more advanced legal workflow control, in which case Ironclad is stronger.

If you want, I can also give you:

1. a side-by-side comparison table of the top 5 options, or
2. a recommendation based on your team size and budget.
