A virtual data room (VDR) is a secure online storage solution which allows companies to store, manage and share confidential information with different parties. It is commonly used for M&A (mergers and acquisitions) due diligence, but the VDR can be used to manage any project or business transaction which involves sensitive data.
The most effective virtual data rooms have a simple, intuitive interface that allows for the simple managing of large amounts of files. They facilitate the efficient handling of many formats of files, including video, text, and images, and feature specific permission settings that allow administrators to restrict who can view, print or download files. They also have tools for watermarking and redaction to protect privacy and intellectual property.
Take into consideration how adaptable the virtual space is to various operating systems and devices when selecting one. It must be compatible with iOS and Android, without the need for additional plugins. Additionally, it should allow for bulk uploads, using drag-and drop functionality. You should also look for folder templates to ensure that your system of filing is logical. Users can navigate the virtual dataroom more efficiently by creating a folder named “Finance” and subfolders for each financial statement. It is also recommended to use a file type recommendation system for uploading and storing files. This will reduce time and effort by making it possible for users to upload files directly to appropriate folders. Additionally, a system that recommends file names with underscores between words is also beneficial because it makes it easier to search and locate files using keywords.
