### "Datasite VDR - The best-overall solution for transaction datarooms"

March 21, 2024

5.0

Very very happy. Easy and intuitive to use. Would strongly recommend over any other alternative.

Pros

1\. Intuitive and ease of use: ability to "View As" a group is game-changing, and gives you peace of mind in ensuring that permissions are accurate and important sensitive data is shared correctly 2. Customer support: Very dedicated team

Cons

All the below items are minor and do not change my preference for Datasite VDR 1. Speed of bulk uploads: can be a bit faster

### "Quality data room option"

March 19, 2024

4.0

Pros

Datasite offers a safe and secure environment where we can share sensitive information without losing control of who has access.

Cons

The tradeoff with security is speed and ease of access. Resetting passwords and two factor authentication are must haves for a secure environment but this can sometimes slow down the speed of access.

Hi Andrew! Thank you very much for sharing your feedback with us. I'm glad you've discovered some of our optional but valuable security features, like MFA. We're releasing some multi-factor authentication updates this spring that will hopefully make it a bit easier to login. I did pass along your perspective to the Product team. Stay tuned - we'll post about it on the webpage linked below. Again, thank you for the detailed review. We look forward to supporting you and your teams on future deals!

### "Datasite Review"

December 6, 2023

5.0

Pros

It is fairly easy to navigate and there isn't 'too much' going on. This makes the VDR feel clean and simply makes it easier for me as the administrator to arrange everything.

Cons

Permission management can be a bit difficult to navigate, especially in terms of setting up numerous groups (in order to issues different levels of security).

### "Good use of Datasite"

May 7, 2024

4.0

Pros

In the age of data-driven decisions and remote collaborations, Virtual Data Rooms (VDRs) have emerged as indispensable tools for businesses across industries. Having explored various VDR solutions, I must say that they offer a secure, efficient, and streamlined approach to managing sensitive information.

Cons

Cost can be a significant consideration, especially for small businesses or startups with limited budgets. Additionally, while VDRs offer robust security features, maintaining compliance with industry regulations and data privacy laws remains a shared responsibility between the provider and the user.

April 11, 2023

Overall, very easy to use, great way to send data securely whilst maintaining protection. Ideal for administrators to send information and documentation to external clients.

Pros

This product is easy to use and a great way for sending sensitive information and data online in an encrypted manner. documents are easy to find and the bulk upload option makes things efficient for adding multiple documents in one go. It is also handy receiving email notifications when something has been uploaded to the site.

Cons

When a document has been uploaded, it takes a while to appear on the send data list. It would be nice to see the speed increase for appearing on the site.
