"DocSend Turns Every Deck into Actionable Sales Engagement Insights"
What do you like best about DocSend?

What stands out most about DocSend is how naturally it fits into sales ennoblement. It turns every shared deck or proposal into a feedback loop, showing exactly who viewed it, what they cared about, and where they dropped off, so sales teams can follow up with precision instead of guesswork. It enforces better sales behavior by aligning outreach, timing, and messaging with real buyer engagement data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DocSend?

Customization options for branding and viewer experience are also fairly basic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Granular Real-Time Analytics & Secure Link Control for Professional Pitching"
What do you like best about DocSend?

Granular Real-Time Analytics: The standout feature is the ability to see exactly who opened your document, which pages they spent the most time on, and if they forwarded it. This "heat map" of reader interest is invaluable for tailoring follow-up conversations.

Live Document Updating: You can update a file or fix a typo even after you’ve sent the link; the recipient will always see the latest version without you needing to send a "v2" email.

Professional Pitching: It is widely considered the industry standard for founders sending pitch decks to VCs and for sales teams sharing high-stakes proposals.

Secure Link Control: Instead of risky attachments, you send a secure link where you can remotely "turn off" access at any time, set expiration dates, or require email verification for viewers Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DocSend?

Clunky User Interface: The dashboard and folder organization have stayed largely the same for years, and the overall experience feels dated and a bit “clunky” compared with more modern, sleek SaaS competitors.

Mobile Experience: Although it works in mobile browsers, the lack of a robust, dedicated mobile app for managing and tracking documents on the go is a frequent source of frustration.

Friction for Viewers: Having recipients enter an email address just to view a document can add unnecessary friction, slowing down quick interactions and sometimes irritating busy executives. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Powerful Tracking, Needs Smoother Mobile Experience"
What do you like best about DocSend?

I like DocSend for its real-time analytics, which allow me to see exactly when a client opens a document, which pages they spend time on, and whether they forwarded it. This gives me valuable insight for follow-ups. The initial setup of DocSend was straightforward. Uploading documents, creating links, and configuring basic sharing settings only took a few minutes, and after that, the team was able to use this tool to the maximum. Additionally, earlier we were using a combination of Google Drive and email attachments, but DocSend gave us better control over document access and the tracking visibility we were missing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DocSend?

The pricing tiers are pretty steep when you're managing multiple client engagements and need multiple user seats for advanced features. The mobile viewing experience could be smoother; documents don't always render as cleanly on mobile devices as they do on computers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless File Sharing and Signing at a Great Price"
What do you like best about DocSend?

I used Docsend regularly to share and sign files, and it allows me to work with a variety of file types easily. DocSend makes gathering e-signatures quick and seamless, avoiding confusing email chains with multiple attachments. Since it's a reliable name, I also trust it for the security of sensitive work documents. The cost for plans that include key features like unlimited signatures and analytics are reasonable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DocSend?

I'm satisfied with the functionality of DocSend and all of the features it offers. The only downside I see is that it's most functional if you have a paid plan to access certain features, such as unlimited signatures or setting up a team account. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Enhances Document Security with Real-Time Insights"
What do you like best about DocSend?

I like DocSend's real-time tracking, secure access controls, and analytics dashboard the most. It's especially valuable for seeing who engages with documents and when. These features give me full visibility and control over shared documents, along with providing insights on engagement, which helps me follow up effectively and make data-driven decisions. The initial setup was straightforward, allowing us to start sharing with custom permissions quickly and with minimal training needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DocSend?

Some areas that could be improved in DocSend include its mobile experience, which can feel limited compared to the desktop version, and the pricing for smaller teams, which can be high. Additionally, more customization options for link expiration and branding would make it even more flexible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Perfect for Managing Investor or Client-Facing Documents"
What do you like best about DocSend?

What I like best about DocSend is how easy it makes it to share sensitive documents securely while maintaining a professional look. I can control access, see who viewed the files, and track engagement in real time. The analytics are very useful for understanding investor or client interest, and the interface is clean and intuitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DocSend?

The only downside is that some of the more advanced features, like custom branding and data rooms, are locked behind higher-tier plans. It would be great if a few of these were available in the standard plan. Otherwise, the platform works very well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great tool for secure and trackable document sharing"
What do you like best about DocSend?

It has always been very easy and comfortable to send documents while keeping things secure, with the ability to track who opens the documents opened for them through sender DocSend. What I really love are the very detailed analytics for viewers-how long a person spends on each page, which is valuable with sales and fundraising. It is really simple to use, really quick to set up, and it has good integration capabilities with email and CRM tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DocSend?

Some features are advanced and only available on higher-tier plans, limiting the flexibility for smaller teams. The mobile application version could be better optimized for reading longer documents. Other than that, this is pretty much a solid and easy-to-use platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
