### "Private Credit Review"

March 19, 2024

5.0

I like it! I've found it very easy to use and the people at customer support are helpful when I can't figure out a tool / have tech issues.

Pros

I think it's easy to use, and I wish I would use it more; however, I don't set up the data rooms (the bankers send me links and I sign up for whatever one they choose)

Cons

N/A - it is my favorite VDR by miles. I think the next best is Intralinks, but Datasite is far better

### "No issues"

March 31, 2023

5.0

Overall no significant issues

Pros

Generally easy to use, good access, good support functionality

Cons

Permissions are a bit messy sometimes, but otherwise no concerns

Reason for choosing Datasite Diligence Virtual Data Room

Generally this is a client decision; we provide options as advisors but client decides. Cost and what they are familiar with seem to be the main reasons.

Overall easy to use.

Pros

Customer support is excellent. Easy user role and access management.

A major critical feature that is missing is unique identifier (ID number) for documentation. The reference for documents change if you change the order, which is a massive cons. Lack of integration with other systems.
