Hear from those who love DealRoom

"I wanted the ability for folks across the organization to make deal entries and pipeline entries, something that was a living document. DealRoom checked all the boxes.

"The ability to exchange information easily has saved us a lot of time and avoided confusion."

"I can get the same amount of things done, but without analysts."

"The fastest I've ever done a deal in my career."

"We really use it post LOI with the target."

"People have enjoyed the functionality of being able to comment on threads, and being able to clarify requests and responses."

"I love the pipeline and I love the information sharing."

"That human element. Getting behind a company that was able to respond so quickly really resonated with me."

"The ability to go back and see how often people go into DealRoom, whether they are completing their tasks, pull those reports, etc. helps us know where to spend our time."

"We are able to work with our brokers, sellers, and third parties on DealRoom."

"We've seen the evolution of the platform from the time we've been using it. We've given feedback, and you guys listen to that feedback and run with it."

"DealRoom is very intuitive, we don't even have to train people. If we give someone access, they click around and figure it out."

"Being able to filter requests is something we've found quite useful. When a request is done, you know it is actually done."

Honestly, a very clean, simple dashboard. I felt like I was an expert on the platform in less than 24 hours.

We personally love the business model, for an acquisitive company like ourselves.

"Having full visibility during integration keeps people accountable and things moving along."

"Easy to use and more than just a data room."

"Planning the PMI efforts early on has been really beneficial."

The speed to integration and the speed to realizing value is where we've really seen the benefit.

"Get everybody involved from all the different functions and in one place to manage the pipeline."

"The cost for us was a no-brainer."

Overwhelming feedback was, "we prefer this monumentally over using Excel".

"The number one thing I point to is the integration of the request list with the data room."

"Being able to direct your staff on more value-added processes of the deal."

"Definitely a reduction in emails, especially to third party advisors."

"I think of DealRoom as being conducive to shortening the length of the diligence process, and the integration process."

"It saves third parties from having to go through me to reach the target."

"From a client success and service standpoint, we've had an amazing experience."

"Linking everything from the data room into the request list is huge. Commenting, and tagging folks in. Then being able to close out requests."

"If you are using the features right, you're linking the files from the data room to the diligence requests."

"Reduction of time that I have to be on zoom. I can just be focused on work."

"I can say confidently I'm using less of people's time and personal time."

"A lot of it is just in the accuracy or timeliness of the information."

"You guys turn around development cycles in a week!"

"I can see very clearly, that UI, tells me where I need to be focusing my efforts on the diligence side."

"They are walking in and it's on a platter for them just to go review, rather than hunt for information."

"I can't emphasize enough the stream of consciousness related to diligence. That's where I would tell you is the single most valuable element of the platform."

"With only two people in corporate development, two transaction leads, we would not be to handle the workflow we have today if we weren't utilizing DealRoom."

"You have everyone's work in front of you, even ahead of the meetings, so you can prepare adequately and make the deal status calls much more productive."

"If I had to use a word, they're proactive. They weren't relying on me to contact them all the time. Especially when we were looking to roll out the platform within Flex."

“Being high touch anytime a user has an error or an issue, just calling them up and trying to explain what went wrong and why.”

"When we found DealRoom, it was really perfect for us. It allowed us to have the really great storage aspect, but also implement a very specified project management apparatus behind all the documents."

“I don’t even know where the documents, that make up the company that is Valta, could all be in one place without DealRoom.”

“I like seeing stuff checked off the list. I always had a sense of where we were at and the buyers had a sense of where we were at too.”

"Assigning people to different requests or integration tasks, that ability is a very useful function."

"The user interface is so easy to use that when people get in, they just figure it out. It really paves the wave for adoption."

"It was between DealRoom and another data room provider. If you do the side by side in terms of cost, there's no comparison."

“It’s truly allowed us to be in control of the data and really understand where it's going, who is seeing it, and knowing what the most recent version is being presented. Overall having stuff in one place and easy to access is very intuitive for our investors.”

"What I wish I knew then, that I know now, is how helpful the request functionality is within DealRoom."

“It’s helped to make the process transparent in terms of the team or key players that are working on it."

"It's high touch. If I ever have any questions, it's answered by a human."

"You need to understand DealRoom not as a data room, but a workflow solution."

“I found your podcast out there and listened to your commercials and dug into it a little further.”

"Having an efficient and organized process is the number one solution here."

It's less tangible and more emotional because it's people's lives at stake in terms of whether the organization is going to survive or not."

“The system functions so well, it’s got the features that I have wanted as a business leader. And the DealRoom team has been there to answer questions and help me understand different ways to use the platform.”

"With your existing investors, you don’t want to give one investor an advantage over the others. You want to provide the same information to all of them. The platform really allows us to ensure that.”

“The process with the Excel tracker would probably take me forty-five minutes to an hour. Once we switched over to DealRoom, fifteen to twenty minutes, so it’s a significant time-saver.”

"The tools and capabilities that you provide are so far beyond what they (Intralinks and Datasite) provided us."

"I feel like my house is in order. I know exactly what I need to do. Here's the data, here are all the files, I can get to it when I want. It's a mindset thing. Much more positive and excited to dig in and work on deals and contribute. It removes the barrier of entry and dreading going into a drive to find stuff."
