Thanks for your comments and feedback on how user-friendly our platform is. I am curious to better understand what areas of our VDR are too detailed. I'd recommend navigating any colleagues that need assistance to our best-in-class 24/7 support team. They are available and eager to help our clients better understand Firmex via training. Feel free to email me with more feedback.

Pros

Easy to upload files, create folders, add users

Cons

I looked for, but could not find a search function; therefore, some docs were uploaded several times. A feature which advises if a doc exists already would be great

### "Good platform"

January 12, 2021

4.0

Happy to use the platform, but usually have way less connectivity with the reps vs. the other VDR providers who constantly reach out to us to set up events, etc.

Pros

Solid dataroom platform, has all the features needed

Cons

Typically more expensive, platform can feel a little older/dated

Shiven, thanks for the feedback. It would be great to understand where you think our platform can be more expensive and what provider this is in relation too. We take pride in offering a top tier platform at a mid-market price compared to our top competitors that offer a pricey per page fee. As for the platform, we are constantly updating Firmex to make it look more modern and user friendly. We would love to understand this feedback in further details if you have the time.

### "Virtual Data Room"

June 17, 2016

4.0

Firmex is User friendly, but the search function could be improved. Sometimes the download speeds are slower on Firmex than other datasites. I typically batch download so I don't have to work on Firmex.

Pros

The software is intuitive.

Cons

The search function does not allow for more advanced searches or searched within documents.

### "Great experience!"

August 4, 2022

5.0

Use of the software is easy and saves considerable time in sharing documents with potential partners, while we have peace of mind that all is well secured.

Pros

The software is so user-friendly and easy to navigate, especially as an administrator. I have worked with other VDR in the past and find Firmex to be quite straight forward and much more pleasant to manage.

Cons

So far, all is working out very well and addresses all functionalities required to operate the VDR.

Reason for choosing Firmex Virtual Data Room

I was not involved in this decision.

### "VDR Superstar"

May 14, 2021

5.0

Pros

This product was easy to learn, the customer onboarding support was spectacular, rolling it out to the team was smooth. Adoption into our document management system was a good move. We use it for most external sharing.

Cons

Some of the features could be less of a hunt-and-find. Adding Users and editing their information with permissions can be hard to find sometimes.

Reason for choosing Firmex Virtual Data Room

Best support/cost/onboarding.

April 2, 2024

5.0

very good. Support is excellent! I used Live Chat and didn't expect someone respond and actually a live person call me to guide me through.

Pros

easy set up once I get the concept of the structure.

Cons

if documents can be upload directly from document management i.e. IManage. That would be perfect.

Thanks for the feedback on how easy the set up of the data room is, having all the drag and drop functionality you need to enhance your experience is something we are always looking to establish. As for integration with iManage we do offer API's for your organization if that is of interest, feel free to reach out to myself at james.lehuquet@firmex.com.

It has been positive experience with Firmex. There is great support from Firmex when needed, but overall the product is easy to use once a tutorial is completed.

Pros

Very easy to use, add and manage documents as well as invite users to the Data Room.

Cons

So far I have not had anything that I like least about the software?

### "Firmex data room"

November 28, 2022

5.0

What I like the best is the customer support whenever I had questions. Every person I had contact with \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] was so able and willing to assist. It's great that they can remotely access my data site and help me with any problems I may have. I'm 75 years old and not very versed in technical computer stuff so I called often.

Pros

Easy to upload and share documents. Good indexing.

Cons

I don't think there is anything that needs improvement.

Reason for choosing Firmex Virtual Data Room

Appreciate the positive feedback in regards to our support team and the ease of use of our platform. We currently are in the process of refreshing our UI/UX to make the platform look more up to date and modern. In terms of our permissions, we permission on the group/folder level.

### "International Collaborations Simplified"

May 17, 2016

5.0

We're using Firmex to exchange documents with law firms (e.g. when we did our public listing), as a repository for regulatory documents (drug submissions) and mainly, exchange documents with our multiple international partners (Spain, Germany, Finland, US). Our setup is simple: One project, one VDR. Simple access control and simple document management makes this solution optimal for us. We had to adapt to the new 'group' feature and got the hang of it. Not the most intuitive presentation of the features. Setting rights access is rather simple and intuitive. So is adding more users. Bulk edit features are also useful. The recent addition of the Firmex Document Exchange for Desktop was also a good idea. One final note - the customer service team has been extremely efficient in the initial training and support. Problems are resolved extremely fast and this is critical for us.
