"Strong security and easy file updates, but email alerts are too detailed"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Papermark Virtual Data Room?

We started using Papermark to send out volunteer reports and now it become an essential tool for us. It has great security features, access controls, and the ability to update a file without resending a new link has saved us more than once when accidently uploading the different version.

The email notification it sends on receiving viewers on our link can be a bit detailed and more integrations with CRMs would make Papermark even easier to use, but it supports most tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It still feels a bit limited compared to others tools. If you’re not very technical, self-hosting or configuring advanced settings can be a bit hard to set up Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Iuliia Shnai of Papermark Virtual Data Room

Hi Bryan,

Thank you for this! Being a genuinely useful open-source alternative for teams is core to what Papermark is about, so this means a lot.

The self-hosting setup complexity is fair and something we think about a lot. We want it to be accessible even if you're not deeply technical, and we're working on making that experience smoother. Good reminder to keep pushing on that.

Appreciate the support. Reach out anytime!

What I like about Papermark is how easy it is to share notion pages in a link combined with our other documents. The interface is simple too, and easy to understand.

Bulk uploads sometimes need a retry and large pdfs take time to load, maybe because of the storage zones differences but just minor issues compared to the features Papermark offers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Feature-Rich Open Source Platform with Excellent Support"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Papermark Virtual Data Room?

It is open source so self host option is there. It offers page by page analytics, time spent, visitor info (device/browser) etc. Granular permission like password, allow/deny is asked. Supports different file formats like PDFs, PPTX, docx, sheets, bulk upload, data room linking many docs. Good support system Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Papermark Virtual Data Room?

While it supports web hooks etc, the number of plug & play integrations are smaller relative to large commercial SaaS. Most of the advanced features are for paid user. It lacks some advanced engagement heat maps, screenshot protection, etc. Hosting/maintenance overhead if self‐hosted Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Iuliia Shnai of Papermark Virtual Data Room

Hello Neha,

Thanks so much for review. Heat maps actually a great idea, I added it in our roadmap, and would be exciting to release that soon. We also provide the full API on request to have more flexibility for our users. We actually have a screenshot protection in place and besides web hooks provide the Full API on demand. Happy to hear more how we could improve Papermark further.
