The Q&A functionality allowed easy filter to questions and status of replies. Pros It is intuitive thus making easy to navigate the VDR and use it functionalities. Cons Customer support can be improved to further improve the likelihood of choosing to use the software. Review Source SF Scott F. Associate Financial Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Q&A" June 18, 2019 5.0 Good support, only issues is as mentioned above. Pros Good UX, mostly clear to use and functional Cons Q&A - Intralinks and various other data room operators have the ability to ask questions on behalf of 3rd parties, this is seriously helpful where they need the questions processed quickly or may not yet have full access to the data room. To counter this, I've had to make a fake account on behalf of a 3rd party to process questions in the past, which is an issue. Further, the fact that you need to be a Q&A administrator to see the name of the Question Author is quite ridiculous. For example in a sell-side process where there's more than one potential acquirer in the data room asking questions, unless the sellside client is an admin, i.e. if they are approver or author, they can't see who is asking the question which means it's very difficult to correctly direct an answer. This should be an option which you can enable. The only way around it is by adding a comment when approving and forwarding the question which is very manual and inefficient for the entire process. Alternatives considered [Intralinks VDRPro](https://www.capterra.com/p/131416/Intralinks-Virtual-Data-Room/) Reason for choosing Ansarada Because the client may have been using Intralinks or have used Intralinks in the past. However, mostly it is quite even and we are asked for quotes from a number of providers. With the issues in Q&A it is sometimes difficult to justify Ansarada over other providers.

Associate Banking Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Not a fan of the direction this VDR is going" August 4, 2020 3.0 Our team has seen extensive changes with our point of contact at the company. The quality of service has seemed to declined since when we first started using this software and has gotten more expensive that it should have in comparison to other products that are available. Pros I am very comfortable with this software since we have been using it for a while. The added security features is a nice touch that some other options dont have. Cons Not intuitive, expensive for what you get, many individuals have complained about not being able to see PDF's due to settings the software requires each user to make on their computers. Alternatives considered [Intralinks VDRPro](https://www.capterra.com/p/131416/Intralinks-Virtual-Data-Room/) Reason for choosing Ansarada Ansarada was the main VDR we used when my team initially started working their but we have switched since to alternative products since then. Review Source Response from Ansarada August 12, 2020 Hi Kris, Sorry to hear you've had an unsatisfactory experience with Ansarada's Virtual Data Room. The concern you mentioned about viewing PDFs has been updated. We've introduced a new 'Preview' function which alleviates the pain you're experiencing. You can preview PDFs straight from the Document Index, without having to download the document. Previewing PDFs does not require any programs or plugins. Full details are here - https://help.ansarada.com/en/articles/2597663 Our pricing starts from US$39 per month per user and we purposefully offer flexible plans so that customers don't feel like they're paying for features they don't want or need. All our plans include training and 24/7 support from our knowledgeable team. Unfortunately, we can't guarantee that there won't be staffing changes from time to time. We would love the opportunity to win you back and show you the new functionality. One of our Client Success Managers will be in contact to arrange a demo. Thanks, Team Ansarada NB Nick B.

Support is high quality and easy to get in contact with. Pros Ansarada is intuitive to use, and is robust and reliable for all the deals we have used it on. Cons Some of the settings could be clearer. Often need to read articles or discuss with support to get an understanding of settings, permissions, etc. Alternatives considered [Intralinks VDRPro](https://www.capterra.com/p/131416/Intralinks-Virtual-Data-Room/)[Datasite Diligence Virtual Data Room](https://www.capterra.com/p/130910/Datasite-Diligence/) Reason for choosing Ansarada Have used them previously and didn't find them as intuitive or as suited for the local market. Pricing was generally aligned across all 3 options Review Source HM Hayley M.

Cons Pricing .. it seems that the pricing options and systems is very unclear to me.

September 25, 2025 4.0 Pretty good - apart from the massive frustration of not being able to upload Rights Protected documents - issued by the Data Room owner! Pros Relatively simple to use with some caveats - particularly in relation to the management of Rights Protected documents Cons Ansarada must provide a workshop or instructions for anyone setting up a tender or data room to understand that Rights-Protected documents cannot be uploaded by those submitting to the data room. This issue has persisted for over three years among Ansarada users. Review Source TK Tair K. Associate Director Accounting Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Ansarada reviw" July 31, 2024 5.0 Very usefull platform during the transaction Pros Good data hierarchy making the data upload/download/finding process easy Cons Nothing really to complain, as with predefined setting its very easy to manage Review Source TW Tammy W. Associate Investment Banking Used the software for: 2+ years ### "user-friendly, secured platform" March 7, 2023 5.0 Nothing but positive Pros The general ease of use of the platform, supportive and responsive support team from the live chat support team to the sales team and back office support team, everyone is always happy to assist with any questions we may have.The ease of uploading/deleting documents, and the assurance that you won't release the wrong document to the wrong person. Cons would be helpful if i could view as the specific person - i believe this will reduce the level of reliance on the support team on basic/setting up questions Alternatives considered [Intralinks VDRPro](https://www.capterra.com/p/131416/Intralinks-Virtual-Data-Room/)[Datasite Diligence Virtual Data Room](https://www.capterra.com/p/130910/Datasite-Diligence/) Reason for choosing Ansarada Historical positive experience Review Source JH Jack H. Senior Consultant Accounting Used the software for: 2+ years ### "There's no dataroom I'd AnsaRADA use! " February 22, 2023 5.0 Ansarada enables us to conduct thorough due diligence and makes the transaction process more efficient for all parties involved. Pros Ansarada provides a VDR experience that is intuitive, responsive and aesthetically pleasing when compared to competitors. Documents load quickly and VDR navigation is seamless. The bulk export functionality works effectively and the Q&A download process and customisation is extremely useful and user-friendly. Cons While not a dealbreaker, it would be helpful to have a setting that allows PDFs downloaded from the VDR to be able to be used in non-Adobe viewers. Review Source SR Simon R. Manager, Corporate Finance Financial Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Review - User" April 27, 2023 5.0 Very good for Virtual Data Room purposes, easy set up and makes the due diligence life cycle easy. Pros Very easy to use, customer support is great. Cons Not too many flaws at all! Have been using this platform for three years. Alternatives considered [Intralinks VDRPro](https://www.capterra.com/p/131416/Intralinks-Virtual-Data-Room/) Reason for choosing Ansarada Price points and ease of use. Review Source SS Shaun S. Business Analyst Investment Management Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Simple, effective and efficient" March 29, 2023 5.0 The ease of managing a data room and the ability to track bidder participation is essential for rapid execution of M&A transactions and Ansarada certainly delivers in this respect. Pros Ease of use, and 24 hour support is incredibly beneficial. Cons Not applicable - however, I found the automatic numbering challenging, however, once I was assisted by the support team, it was simple. Review Source HA Halil A. Analyst Investment Banking Used the software for: 2+ years ### "All-in-one virtual data room with every functionality you need " June 21, 2023 5.0 Pros Ease of use, flexibility of functionalities, active customer support, competitive pricing Cons When you enter a data room, it always defaults to the workflow function instead of document index Review Source LP Lachlan P. lawyer Legal Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "L paterson review" November 3, 2023 5.0 Good, better than other products (e.g. datasite) Pros file index exports, doc ID references are all great Cons DOc viewing, unable to copy text in Ansarada viewer Review Source RD Rupert D. Associate Investment Banking Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Ansarada Dataroom" June 25, 2019 5.0 I predominantly use Ansarada to assist with M&A processes. Ansarada is particularly helpful during the due diligence phase as well as forming part of the transaction documents as the warranties and indemnities are tied only to what has been provided in the dataroom. Pros The encryption abilities of the software. The ability to monitor / restrict exactly what each individual can view and how they can view the information is most helpful. Cons The thing I like least about the software is the inability to change an individuals security protocols within the same group. It would be good to be able to monitor an individuals security protocols whilst keeping them within the same investment group. Review Source SD Sam D. Analyst Investment Banking Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Would recommend " June 21, 2023 5.0 Pros Functionality and ease of use are what I like most. Cons Bulk download and bulk upload is clunky. Review Source KG Kevin G. Corporate Legal Officer Mining & Metals Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Best Dataroom" March 9, 2023 5.0 Documents management, sharing documents Pros Using data rooms from Ansarada facilitates our company's business activities, features such as document search coupled with a friendly user interface really help us in the process of uploading documents and searching documents. Security features also greatly facilitate our cooperation with other parties in the process of sharing documents. Cons The disadvantage that we feel is that the payment process is a little complicated and takes a long time so it takes us longer to try this data room Review Source ZR Zachariah R. Analyst Investment Banking Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Ansarada review - investment banker perspective" March 30, 2023 5.0 Pros Very easy to use. Great customer support. Much more responsive than competitor products. Cons Only issue when compared to competitor products is its relative expense. Review Source MG Mailys G. Biomedical engineer Medical Devices Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Professional, lots of possibilities" November 12, 2020 5.0 I was very pleased with the overall experience, so were our potential investors. It takes some 'getting used to' to run the data room as an administrator but the instruction videos help. There are a lot of security features, sometimes too many: this makes it safe, but not always intuitive. I have already recommended Ansarada to another company and would be happy to do it again. Pros Clear representation of documents present in the dataroom. Automatic numbering was useful too. I appreciated the option of making groeps of people with defined rights (read, edit, print, download, etc.). The helpdesk was always very quick to answer questions efficiently. Easy to use for the clients, none of them complained about difficulty to access the database. The possibility to generate reports showing who-accessed-what was very valuable. Cons There are so many security features in terms of enabling publication of documents, that it is easy to forget to open a gate and thus provide access to a financier. Reason for choosing Ansarada In our initial contact meeting with Ansarada, we had a much more professional impression of Ansarada. Review Source JK Joe K.

Vice President Investment Banking Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Ansarada VDR Review" July 9, 2019 5.0 Pros It is extremely user friendly and the interface is clean. Cons I think applying the security settings to different user groups could possible be improved. Review Source TK Tom K. Director of Analytics Capital Markets Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great Networking Event" April 2, 2024 5.0 Pros The team set up a golf networking event for several of their customers. It was a great day and it was obvious the team put a lot of work into it to ensure everyone had a fun time. They went the extra mile to show that they care about their customer. Cons Nothing, the team was great. I'll be at their next event. Review Source MMY May May Y. Analyst Banking Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Ansarada Review" April 5, 2023 5.0 Overall experience has been good - can be more efficient because of Ansarada's easy to user interface Pros Most impactful feature is the user interface - easy to read and navigate Cons Did not know there was a mobile app for Ansarada - would like more information on this, perhaps a guide on how to set up and navigate Ansarada's mobile feature Review Source SE Seb E. Senior Associate Management Consulting Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Ansarada has become our go-to VDR platform" February 7, 2023 5.0 Pros Key factors include the outstanding ease-of-use and security of the platform, as well as the flexibility and decisiveness of the people working there. Cons MB-based subscription model makes it more difficult to choose a subscription package in smaller transactions Review Source TZ Tina Z. Analyst Investment Banking Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Review of Ansarada " June 25, 2019 4.0 I am using Ansarada Virtual Data Room for M&A processes. Pros Ease of use; Various functionality to ensure confidentiality; Ability to set up different groups and subgroups. Cons Drawbacks of enabling certain functionality not clearly explained e.g. 1. enabling security setting for word doc will require dataroom users to download additional microsoft software to be able to view the documents. 2. enabling certain pdf security setting will require viewers have internet access when viewing the document even after the docs have been downloaded and saved down.
