## Fidelity Private Shares Reviews
  ### 1. Incredible Functionality with Robust Cap Table Management

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Leon S. | Chief Financial Officer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 20, 2026

**What do you like best about Fidelity Private Shares?**

I find Fidelity Private Shares incredibly functional and easy to use.. The ability to store information and share it with the investor base is very important. I also appreciate the ability to issue stock option grants and restricted stock grants electronically, which is very, very valuable. Additionally, having all the information I need about our cap table readily available at my fingertips is robust. I also love being able to automatically upload quarterly investor reports into the system and issue them to our shareholders. It’s really valuable that shareholders can always refer back to it in a central location, and I can see who actually read the update.

**What do you dislike about Fidelity Private Shares?**

I mentioned to the training specialist that it would be nice to have some notifications of anniversary dates of employees as it relates to stock granting.

**What problems is Fidelity Private Shares solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Fidelity Private Shares for cap table management, board actions, and issuing stock option grants electronically. It lets me store and share info with investors, keeps everything about our cap table handy, and allows for automated reporting to shareholders, all of which are valuable and save administrative time..

  ### 2. Accurate Cap Table Management with Exceptional Onboarding

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Michael D. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 02, 2026

**What do you like best about Fidelity Private Shares?**

I find Fidelity Private Shares extremely helpful for cap table management. It's the first online platform that has accurately captured our cap table, and I'm very excited about this. I really appreciate the accurate shareholder information it provides. The onboarding team was exceptional, and I'm extremely pleased with their service. The initial setup was extremely easy and it leveraged my time very well, making the process efficient. We are also looking forward to leveraging additional features in the future, and there are no improvements needed at this time.

**What do you dislike about Fidelity Private Shares?**

There is nothing that we dislike at this time.

**What problems is Fidelity Private Shares solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Fidelity Private Shares accurately captures our cap table with correct shareholder information and document automation & archival. It's the first platform that does this for us, which is exciting. The onboarding team is exceptional, and setup was easy, optimizing my time.

  ### 3. Robust Platform with Outstanding Support

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Laura K.

**Reviewed Date:** January 08, 2026

**What do you like best about Fidelity Private Shares?**

I love the team at Fidelity Private Shares. They were amazing and helped us tremendously. Their knowledge made it so easy to onboard and get everything organized. The team really held our hand through every step of the process, guiding us effectively. The platform is also far more robust compared to the previous tool we used, with links to every single document, enabling us to close deals quickly. Additionally, the pricing is really good, and the reputation of Fidelity was instrumental in our decision.

**What do you dislike about Fidelity Private Shares?**

One of the things I find a bit lacking is the modeling tools for scenario analysis. They do have modeling tools, but from my understanding, it's more useful once you have a deal firmed up and know what your planned offer is, rather than being used for exploring different scenario analyses.

**What problems is Fidelity Private Shares solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Fidelity Private Shares for cap table management and organizing investor convertible notes, safe notes, equity investments, and employee stock options, which helps us administer these efficiently.

  ### 4. Efficient Legal Tech with Room for Improvement

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Shobi A.

**Reviewed Date:** February 09, 2026

**What do you like best about Fidelity Private Shares?**

I like that Fidelity Private Shares is very quick and efficient. The workflows allow for convenient template creation along with features like e-signature and board notifications, which really enhance my experience. Everything about it works well for me. The initial setup was very easy, and my legal counsel was helpful too.

**What do you dislike about Fidelity Private Shares?**

Some workflows are sticky and can't be discarded, like grants. Sometimes, even if someone has signed, they should be allowed to undo their signature if there is mutual agreement that the grant needs to be edited or modified.

**What problems is Fidelity Private Shares solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Fidelity Private Shares provides an all-in-one legal tech solution for easy company creation and governance. It's quick and efficient with workflows that allow template creation, e-signature, and board notifications.

  ### 5. Fidelity's Private Shares Platform and Cap Table Management - Was Exactly what our startup needed

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 10, 2025

**What do you like best about Fidelity Private Shares?**

I have been a Fidelity Investment customer for sometime.  When I launched my startup I was excited to find out that Fidelity offered a Private-Shares investment program for startup companies.  I really appreciated how intuitive Fidelity Private Shares was to use. The support team stood out, they were incredibly responsive and patient with me as I learned the ropes. I always felt like there was a strong system backing the platform, and the team made me feel comfortable asking questions, no matter how small. For those already familiar with Fidelity, the integration with personal investments and the ability to manage everything together in one place has been especially valuable.

**What do you dislike about Fidelity Private Shares?**

I joined right as Fidelity was completing its acquisition of Shoobx, so the timing meant the team was still stabilizing and scaling. Even so, I found them to be extremely collaborative, open to feedback, and very willing to work with me through nuanced needs. Their willingness to tailor solutions and their patience through that transition period turned what could have been a challenge into a very positive experience.

**What problems is Fidelity Private Shares solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Digital Equity Management; Facilitation of NDAs; the Creation of an investment Data Room; Employee Stockplan Management

  ### 6. Promising Platform with Excellent Support

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 29, 2025

**What do you like best about Fidelity Private Shares?**

The platform needs to become more user-friendly. I'm still unsure whether it can actually help address any legal issues that might arise during fundraising. While the concept is promising, I think it will take more engaged users and additional time to truly determine if the product provides real value.

**What do you dislike about Fidelity Private Shares?**

The platform is not very intuitive, and its workflows can be confusing. While the success manager is extremely helpful, I feel that the system would be difficult to use without their support. Additionally, the user interface could use some improvement.

**What problems is Fidelity Private Shares solving and how is that benefiting you?**

This tool is helping me keep my documents organized. However, I believe only time will reveal whether it will truly benefit Wizetrak.

  ### 7. Exceptional Support and Efficiency

Honestly, Craig. He’s so responsive & helpful in getting things done quick, efficiently, & accurately.

Its intuitive interface makes navigation effortless, allowing me to efficiently track, manage, and review documents. Whether I’m reviewing materials or making transactions, the entire process is streamlined and user-friendly.

What truly sets the experience apart, however, is the Fidelity Private Shares' service team. Every team member I’ve interacted with has been professional, knowledgeable, and quick to respond. Scheduling a meeting is simple, and the support I receive is consistently clear, actionable, and proactive. They go above and beyond to ensure I feel confident and supported every step of the way.

Fidelity Private Shares' strong commitment to security is another major reason I trust the platform. Knowing that sensitive financial data is protected by advanced security measures gives me peace of mind in today’s digital landscape.

Overall, Fidelity Private Shares is a game-changer for anyone exploring an online Equity Management platform. With its cutting-edge features and exceptional customer support, it’s an invaluable tool that I highly recommend to anyone seeking a reliable, efficient, and secure solution.

I don't have anything to say here. It's a good system

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 19, 2025

**What do you like best about Fidelity Private Shares?**

I like how easy everything is, and their customer service is top notch. I can call from anywhere - domestic or international, free of charge. There's always someone to help. Placing orders and navigating my way around is totally simple. Sometimes I use it a few times a week; other times I might not use it but once or twice a month. Either way, the features are great, and there's numerous options and order types you can implement.

**What do you dislike about Fidelity Private Shares?**

I can't really think of anything except that the less you have in your account, the more it costs to trade. Once you get up there, the costs are very minimal.

**What problems is Fidelity Private Shares solving and how is that benefiting you?**

My retirement.

He was patient, made himself available and extremely supportive in all aspects of building out our platform. Second, the platform is user friendly and been great for pulling reporting quickly.

It was more work than we had anticipated BUT Craig was a huge help with some of the extra lift we needed to do.

**Reviewed by:** Liam O. | Chief Technology Officer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 16, 2024

  ### 14. Shoobx is a must for any startup!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Consulting | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 13, 2024

**What do you like best about Fidelity Private Shares?**

Everything. Workflows, Templates, Support. We have found Shoobx to be incredibly valuable. Can't imagine having started an Inc. withouth the help of Shoobx. I just wish I had Shoobx like help in other areas of the business. Truly well done!

**What do you dislike about Fidelity Private Shares?**

The only thing that has been a really minor pain point (and only the first time we use it) is what to xpect on a workflow. The documentation is good but sometimes the only way to find out has been complete the workflow.

**What problems is Fidelity Private Shares solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Corporate Governance.
Employee, Contractor management.
Document Managment and Handling.
Equity Management.
Most of Legal templates.

  ### 15. Excellent service & product

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Insurance | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 23, 2022

**What do you like best about Fidelity Private Shares?**

The Fidelity Shoobx is so easy for investor and cap table management. Their customer support and service is off the charts great. I've been a customer for three (3) years and have recommended to others many times.

**What do you dislike about Fidelity Private Shares?**

Emails from them to others sometimes land in spam but that is less frequent now.

**Recommendations to others considering Fidelity Private Shares:**

Don't wait to contact support if you have a question, they respond quickly.

**What problems is Fidelity Private Shares solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Managing the raise, 409a valuation, NDA's and contracts, documents and legal processes.

  ### 16. Great software to launch your c-corp on

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Otto H. | CEO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 24, 2022

**What do you like best about Fidelity Private Shares?**

I've been running our company legal and 

**What do you dislike about Fidelity Private Shares?**

Cap table on Shoobx for three years now and overall we've been really happy with it. From setting up your corporation, to hiring your team, to issuing stock, Shoobx has standardized most of the common transactions that corporations undertake and enables users to prepare and execute paperwork quickly and hassle free. I'm the end, all your docs are stored in one place and your cap table is perfectly managed. World class customer support to boot.

**What problems is Fidelity Private Shares solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Doc preparation, cap table management, and data storage. These benefits are invaluable when going through venture financings. We've raised two institutional rounds since launching and investor's counsel breezed through Shoobx-generated documents.

  ### 17. It's the people that make Shoobx great (okay the tech is good too but the people are GREAT)

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Polly R. | CEO and Co-Founder, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 25, 2022

**What do you like best about Fidelity Private Shares?**

The incredible level of customer support provided by the Shoobx team. Transitioning from having to wait for lawyers to more of a self-serve model is really daunting but the Shoobx team is so supportive of founders that I always feel like I'm in good hands. They're so quick to respond and so lovely to work with

**What do you dislike about Fidelity Private Shares?**

Um, I wish I knew more about equity management in general. I wish it was maybe easier to see user accessibility, because often my investors reach out asking for information on the portal and I'm not sure why they don't access it (probably bc it's easier to email me instead?)

**What problems is Fidelity Private Shares solving and how is that benefiting you?**

No current problems. Main benefit is being able to take care of legal tasks relative to equity without having to pay enormous legal fees

  ### 18. Vital software for Delaware founders

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Sarah W. | Director, Operations &amp; Projects, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 24, 2022

**What do you like best about Fidelity Private Shares?**

Amazing service, and a great product which genuinely helps founder manage their business.

**What do you dislike about Fidelity Private Shares?**

Some portions of the system still need development, but they are generally not high necessity, and the team are responsive to develop fixes

**What problems is Fidelity Private Shares solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Shoobx gives me the ability to run a range of startup activities with limited legal costs and great workflows which support managing the business for scale and investment.

  ### 19. User Experience Second to None

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Philip P. | CFO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 05, 2022

**What do you like best about Fidelity Private Shares?**

When our firm was evaluating a new equity record platform, what stood out the most about ShooBx was the team both on the sales and product side, as well as the ease of use from the interface.  The functionality that the platform offers is full circle from data room, fund raising scenario planning, equity grants, board consents, and independent 409a valuations.  The independent 409a valuation functionality was key for us when selecting a platform

**What do you dislike about Fidelity Private Shares?**

Nothing comes to mind during the sales and onboarding process or the use of portal that we did not or don't like.

**What problems is Fidelity Private Shares solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are solving our fundraising scenario planning, cap table management, ASC-17 compliance, 409a valuation, and equity incentive program management all in one platform which brings simplicity to the already hectic start-up space.

  ### 20. Understated Excellence

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jen T. | Founder CEO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 29, 2022

**What do you like best about Fidelity Private Shares?**

The data room feature is huge - no more confusion about where to store what files and no more mad scrambles to track down important documents during due diligence. 
The best part of working with Shoobx is the people. They are phenomenal - knowledgeable, quick to grasp the issue and responsive. Hands down, one of the best customer experiences ever!

**What do you dislike about Fidelity Private Shares?**

When documents are generated through Shoobx and sent to third parties for execution, third parties have to create an account and since Shoobx is relatively unknown, many push back and ask for alternative e-signature methods. This unfortunately diminishes the automation and systematic storage feature. Editing workflows or templates can also be confusing but the customer success team is super responsive and helpful when you need them.

**What problems is Fidelity Private Shares solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Having one centralized location for all documents and files.
Tracking promised grants for new hires can be a major pain point for companies that are rapidly growing and hiring. This feature in Shoobx is a time saver and ensures no new hire is accidentally omitted.

  ### 21. Save $1000s on legal fees!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Rohit S. | CEO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 31, 2022

**What do you like best about Fidelity Private Shares?**

Intuitive workflows and amazing customer support! As a first-time founder, I really appreciate how they have helped me self-serve on basic legal tasks (issuing equity, setting up board resolutions, running financing scenarios...) thus bringing down our legal fees by $1000s each month.

**What do you dislike about Fidelity Private Shares?**

The UI is a bit dated but I believe they are actively working on this. Don't let it be a deterrent!

**What problems is Fidelity Private Shares solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Helping me perform self-serve legal tasks to save us money.

  ### 22. Heavy User of Shoobx

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Justin S. | Chief Financial Officer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 08, 2022

**What do you like best about Fidelity Private Shares?**

Shoobx is deeply committed to ensuring the customer has a great experience with their offerings. Their customer success team has become our standard for exemplary support. They are extremely responsive and partner with us to ensure all workflows are completed as desired. They have gone above and beyond our expectations in many instances.

**What do you dislike about Fidelity Private Shares?**

The biggest pain point is the inability to naturally edit earlier stages of a workflow without erasing work that was done in a later stage. That being said, their customer success team has gone above and beyond to complete this work behind the scenes to avoid duplicative work. In addition, the product has improved greatly in the year that I have been using it (new features, enhanced speed).

**What problems is Fidelity Private Shares solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We use Shoobx for both cap table management and HR workflows. The HR workflows are great for earlier-stage companies that allow an organization to cut down on superfluous legal expenses while also providing the legal protections based upon the jurisdictions in which you operate (offer letters tailored to each state, documenting change forms). The inclusion of the HR workflows is a nice financial benefit compared to a pure cap table management platform.

  ### 23. Excellent product even better customer service

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Seth R. | Owner, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 07, 2022

**What do you like best about Fidelity Private Shares?**

I had bids from both Carta and Shoobx and I was extremely tempted by Carta at first.  They offered me several incentives, and they have a bigger market share.  A couple things swayed me to Shoobx.  First, they actually combine the data room, the HR workflows, and the cap table management stuff into one platform.  Which is really what we needed more than we needed just a cap table management product.  Second, the customer support and sales process was fabulous.  Now I've been with Shoobx for almost three years, and I have to say - the actual ongoing support you receive AFTER the contract is signed is unbeatable.  If you email them with a question, they will oftentimes be back to you in less than an hour.  When I did a financing, Shoobx has a team that entered everything in on my behalf for $1,000! Probably saved me like $5,000 in legal fees having an associate at the law firm do it.  Free 409A report - super efficient.  Honestly I'm demanding and annoying and easily frustrated - I'm short on time and I just need things to work or get fixed quickly.  These guys deliver and I'll never go anywhere else.

**What do you dislike about Fidelity Private Shares?**

I think the only downside of Shoobx is that most folks are less familiar with using it than Carta.  But it's not hard to use, and even my lawyers were like "oh yeah, this is super intuitive -- I actually prefer this to Carta"

**What problems is Fidelity Private Shares solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Same as above. Gets all of my stuff in one place!

  ### 24. Power User

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 25, 2022

**What do you like best about Fidelity Private Shares?**

We've done multiple financings (notes + equity) and love having it all managed in Shoobx as simply as is possible!

Also the legal workflows (e.g., NDAs) are super straightforward.

**What do you dislike about Fidelity Private Shares?**

As a founder, I haven't spent the time to really dig in and understand all the capabilities - or run some of the financing workflows myself. As I transition this to our finance/ops team, they're able to become more power users and take advantage of the workflows without support.

**What problems is Fidelity Private Shares solving and how is that benefiting you?**

1) Financings and cap table management -> all in one place vs. in a bunch of Google drive folders
2) Same with NDAs / employee agreements -- basically everything legal in one place

  ### 25. Experienced User

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jeremy  P. | Director, Finance & Operations, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 26, 2022

Workflow generation and cap table maintence.

**What do you dislike about Fidelity Private Shares?**

There are minor quirks that pop up from time to time as the business operates related to occurrences that happen very infrequently.  Support is great though.

**What problems is Fidelity Private Shares solving and how is that benefiting you?**

They are always willing to listen and evaluate if the problem the user is experiencing should be related to a tech upgrade or if it is just a "one-off" type problem.

Keep doing the great work you guys are doing!
