Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Easy to use. It has all the functions needed to effectively manage a dataroom. I would highly recommend
  • It is user friendly and rich in functionality. Users find the data rooms intuitive and simple. I am also happy with the support provided when needed.
  • Great data security, ideal for confidential information to be stored and shared. Intuitive design, operational effectiveness, and value for money.
  • I liked Firmex Virtual Data Room for its clear, easy-to-use design. It's simple to navigate and manage documents, and the support team is quick to help. Overall, it's a reliable and user-friendly tool for secure data storage.
  • It is an easy way to share confidential documents with multiple parties, track user activity, answer Q&A and customize permissions for each folder.

Cons

  • Cannot download files with watermark based on a specific user's access
  • No cons that I can think of. Overall happy with the product and the service
  • No significant issues or concerns. Has been a great experience.
  • I did not have any major issues while using Firmex Virtual Data Room.​
  • Some back-and-forth was needed for our particular needs in terms of users and space, but that wasn't a software issue; it was more of a communication gap.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • 1. Ideals is a very user friendly data room. 2. 24/7 customer service help desk to resolve any issues. 3. The pricing is very attractive and best in comparison to other VDR available in market. 4. Lot of features are available for user permission by giving desired permission to user to access confidential information for different documents. 5. Great security.
  • I personally rank iDeals at the top when comparing softwares to organize virtual datarooms. Working in a renewables energy company in Brazil, we are always engaged in some due diligence both as the ones auditing or the ones being audited - which gives me insight both as an administrator and a user of the platform. As an administrator, I can say iDeals has one of the best features to make the experience of uploading documents to the DataRoom in a more effective way, allowing it to simply syncing with the target folder in your computer with a friendly user tool. As a user, I can say iDeals has one of the best interfaces for visualizing documents without the need to download then, which is not allowed in some negotiations.
  • Ease of use 100%. Customer service, if you need it, is excellent. Security level very high. Intuitive design.
  • Easy to use, easy to set up, easy to share. Tracking/Analytic feature is terrific for knowing who visits the portal, what they opened, and how long they stayed on the page/document. Also, the option to give different groups access to specific documents, whether only viewable or downloadable is a great feature.
  • Fantastic Customer Support over email and call allowing technical issues to be sorted in real time. The User Interface is super cool and attractive. Ease of access and use is a major advantage. Easy and customisable user and folder restrictions allow selection of target audience.

Cons

  • 1. Few times there has been issue to add the user. 2. Few documents uploaded were not visible.
  • Being a software well developed with countless features, it is expected that its price would not be low. When compared to other softwares slightly worst than iDeals, usually iDeals, although the better option to go, is usually the more expensive.
  • Actually none. Sorry can't think of any.
  • There's really not many Cons to the software. It is a bit pricey but worth the value. I don't fully understand the value of Q&A. We don't use this but perhaps others do.
  • Nothing really. I have had a very satisfactory experience with iDeals over multiple projects which I have handled. Probably, iDeals can look at incorporating data analytics and informatics for the customers in the VDR to throw up realistic and easy to understand assessments.
