Worth adding Papermark to that list. It goes beyond secure storage with page-by-page engagement analytics that show exactly how buyers or investors interact with every document, something most legacy VDRs don&#39;t offer at this level. SOC 2, GDPR and HIPAA compliant, significantly more affordable than the enterprise options above.
