When making major business decisions, nobody wants to go in without knowing all the facts. In the past, obtaining this information was a matter of scouring through a myriad of highly confidential documents. This could have created a security risk, and could have cost businesses a lot, in terms of lost business opportunities, gruesome lawsuits, or worse.

The newer option is a virtual data room, a secure place to store and share documents, images and information with those who must be able to access it (such as the stakeholders in an M&A deal). They are a great tool to conduct due diligence in connection with acquisitions or tenders, or capital raising as well as for any other major business transaction. They can store everything from financial reports to patents and technical drawings, in a controlled, secure environment.

With access permissions that are flexible and can be configured at the levels of folders and documents, unlimited users can use the platform without compromising data integrity. A robust search feature enables users to quickly and effortlessly find the information they require. Additionally, internal team messaging tools help users avoid having to bounce between different applications, and increase efficiency during the due diligence procedure.

In addition redaction tools can be crucial to stop sensitive information from falling into improper hands. Manually eliminating large documents can be time-consuming, and it increases the risk of missing one or more instances. This could have a significant effect on the outcome of a deal.
