Virtual data rooms provide secure convenient and efficient ways to share and store sensitive documents required for business transactions. Typically, they are utilized by companies that want to process a M&A deal or by life science companies that have intellectual property that requires careful storage and security.
With VDRs you can view and access documents from any location with an internet connection that is secure. This removes the need for travel and speeds due diligence for buyers all over the world. This increases the chances of a successful deal. Secure remote access allows you to protect your files by using advanced encryption and strict access controls. A thorough activity tracking system and audit trailing are important features that allow you to keep track of who is viewing, printing or downloads the files.
VDRs offer a range of other time-saving features including unlimited scrolling and a customized search bar for faster document scanning. They are also ideal for collaborative projects because they can accommodate multiple users logging in simultaneously. You can also decide the permissions that each user has for access to documents.
Downloading a mobile app lets you utilize your VDR when you are on the move. This is great for remote work. Modern VDRs offer professional customer service via chats within the app multilingual support teams through email and phone, help centers and product videos. It’s important that your VDR provides 24/7 support because M&A transactions, and other crucial processes, don’t follow a 9-5 schedule.
