Which Data Room Providers Are Best for M&A?

To conduct the most important business transactions, an enormous amount of data must be reviewed and shared rapidly. When this sensitive information gets into the wrong hands, it could cause a deal to be ruined and cost a company valuable revenue or market share. This is why it is vital to ensure only the right people are reviewing the proper information at all times. A virtual data room can be extremely beneficial in this case. A virtual data room (VDR) can streamline due diligence and M&A processes, while also protecting confidential data.

A VDR is an online repository that holds essential files in a secure way and allows restricted access to internal and external stakeholders. It also helps reduce the risk of file sharing that is not authorized by providing security-first functions such as multifactor authentication, session-timeouts for documents, document level access, watermarking, and view-only modes. A VDR is a perfect solution for M&A due-diligence and other high-stakes transactions.

VDR providers differ in terms of features, ease-of use, and price. The most effective options for businesses are ones that can provide an centralized repository that is flexible in data permissions, detailed activity reports, and custom metadata. They should also provide security and support services, which can help to ensure the integrity of the system in the event of an accident.

Datasite, RR Donnelley and Intralinks are the most well-known providers. Each offers a robust toolkit and features for M&A but their pricing varies widely. In the lower price range there are a few providers like Digify which provide basic features with a complicated pricing policy.
