Allocation of documents could be possible within the tool. For example, I should be able to mark the documents I intend to / have reviewed. It should be possible to both allocate and see who has been allocated documents on the site. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes when you try and download files, the file path is too long, and so it doesn't work. It's an issue rather on the Windows side of things, but when you create a lot of folders and subfolders and then the title of the document is long, you can't download the file. And it can be a bit annoying, so if that issue could be solved, that would be super good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some features in Datasite Diligence can feel overwhelming for new users, and the learning curve is a bit steep. Navigation slows down when dealing with very large document sets. At times, the platform experiences minor performance lags. More transparent pricing or tiered plans would also be helpful. Navigation becomes challenging when deals contain thousands of documents, as folder structures load slowly and the search function isn’t always precise. It would help to have smarter filters, dynamic tagging, or AI-based document suggestions. At peak usage, there are occasional performance lags when opening or indexing large files.

I believe the security settings require improvement, specifically the process for adjusting security passes. It would be beneficial if the system allowed these settings to be more easily edited by the main admin to streamline access control, ensuring that only those who need to access certain information can do so.

I love the ease and comfort of accessing all the data I store on multiple devices with Datasite Diligence Virtual Data Room. This accessibility feature allows me to manage and share my files efficiently, ensuring that I can provide relevant data to any interested party whenever required.

I think the rendering of the data room could be improved. Specifically, the way the data is stored could be more organized in terms of nomenclature, allowing automatic categorization. For instance, if I upload MIS and other similar files, it would be beneficial if the system could automatically suggest placing them in a 'financials' tab and intelligently bifurcate the data. Such a feature would be tremendously time-saving and enhance efficiency. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Datasite Diligence Virtual Data Room primarily for reviewing data room materials uploaded by the GP during fundraising activities, which is incredibly convenient.

What I love most about Datasite Diligence is how it combines rock-solid enterprise-grade security with an exceptionally intuitive, user-friendly interface that makes even the most complex due diligence feel fast and almost painless. The navigation is super easy, bulk uploads are a breeze, granular permissions are straightforward to set up, and the "view as" feature is incredibly handy for checking what different users can see. The AI-powered redaction is a real game-changer—it automatically detects and masks sensitive information like PII or account numbers across huge document sets, saving me tons of time. On top of that, the streamlined Q&A workflows, real-time activity tracking, dedicated 24/7 support, and the emerging generative AI tools (like document summarization) make the whole process so much smoother. In short, it's by far the most polished virtual data room I've used for sell-side M&A—secure, efficient, and actually enjoyable to work with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The main drawbacks of Datasite Diligence that bother me the most are the performance issues—like occasional lag, slow uploads and downloads (especially with large files or bulk actions), and the frustratingly slow one-by-one document review process. The AI-powered redaction tool is often unreliable and doesn't work well enough, so I end up having to do most redactions manually anyway. There are also usability quirks that make things clunkier than they should be: overly complex permission setups, some unintuitive workflows, missing features like bulk downloads from multiple folders, and a steeper learning curve for new or external users. On top of that, the platform has limited customization options and some awkward elements in request tracking and Q&A. These frustrations show up the most on smaller or less complex deals, though it still holds up well for large-scale M&A. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
