### "Fast, secured way to share documents"

February 16, 2023

5.0

Pretty happy with the core features. It does a good job managing documents online and running multiple campaigns and tracking their performance.

Pros

Docsend has a simple intuitive user interface that allows uploading, managing, and sharing documents a breeze. Tracking and reporting features are pretty consistent. The Gmail integration is very efficient.

Cons

Viewing documents on mobile is not the best experience.

### "DocSend: Don’t raise funds without it!"

September 25, 2019

5.0

Having received numerous business plans in the past via DocSend, I was incredibly impressed and quickly decided that we had to use it to communicate with our prospective investors and partners. Getting set up with DocSend was fast and easy, and managing documents and communications has been a breeze. What really keeps me coming back is the fast pace of innovation with new features and ideas. Raising money is a top priority for many companies. DocSend is an essential tool to make fundraising a success.

Pros

Professional, flexible, scalable technology that makes every start-up look good and gives every investor a sense of confidence

Cons

Sometimes confusing to differentiate between content, spaces, etc. Sometimes confusing to figure out how to create custom links.

Reason for choosing Dropbox DocSend

Combination of price and performance

Products like Dropbox and Google make it easy to share files and create links, but they don't offer nearly the customization available with DocSend.

### "DocSend, The BIG BROTHER of documents and presentations"

February 14, 2020

5.0

DocSend has help us out in the sales department to: 1.- Get a much clear idea of how many people are really taking the time to see and read our documents. 2.- Realize who is really interested in the information, since it gives you a report on how many times a single user enters your document. 3.- Get an idea of what page exactly is the one that our users pay more attention to, since we can access statistics of how many minutes per page each user invest on.

Pros

1.-Easy of use for managing documents on the platform 2.-Extremely easy way to upload files to the software 3.-Weekly reports by email 4.- Really love that you could see who access your files, how many times and the time spent per page

Cons

I think personal version almost no reporting, something that could be a withdrawal since next subscription plan is 4.5x more expensive

Reason for choosing Dropbox DocSend

The deep and rich inside information that you can get by using DocSend is impossible to get if you try to use Google docs to share your documents and get an impressive idea on how your clients are using and consuming your information

### "Best way to track docs that are being sent"

November 13, 2018

5.0

Pros

Love the ease of use and how in depth info they give you. I am able to track everything from who is opening my document, when they are opening it, what kind of device and where they are. I have been using docsend since it beginning stages and it has came such a far way and is huge now.. We use it to do e-signatures on waivers we send out as well and the open and click rate is through the roof wether you use it or not it is super simple for someone to sign a doc.

Cons

They have had a few bugs here and there which is lost me some time in work but as they grew and got stronger the service downtime has been minimal

### "best-in-class document management solution platform that allows sales and marketing teams to access,"

July 7, 2022

5.0

my overall exparience with DocSend is that it's the most secure way of sharing documents with the right people. It's an amazing tool for businesses and marketing teams to store and share documents with clients, partners and other stakeholders. You can even track document activity and easily access, collaborate and share documents from any device.

Pros

DocSend is a must-have for any sales team as it helps you get your documents out to prospects by creating a sharable link that allows you to track who is accessing them and when.

Cons

I would say that this platform is really useful and easy to use

### "A convenient tool for sharing and organising documents."

January 18, 2023

4.0

It's an amazing software to keep documents organised and share them with people conveniently. It helps me to send important documents to my clients in real time which makes a good impression of my organisation.

Pros

The user interface of DocSend is very attractive and intuitive too. I don't need to attach any documents to email, I send them via links. It also secure my documents in clouds. The e-sign feature also adds value to this software.

Cons

They lack on the portability of this software. They should have mobile application of it.

4.0

Pros

\- Very user-friendly - Easy to understand analytics for our documents - Support for many document types - The tool also gives the facility of giving a live walkthrough of the documents via phone or in person.

Cons

\- NO Support for pitch videos - It's little expensive - Sometime the website is very slow.

### "This is an essential product that works well and provides excellent tech support. "

January 14, 2018

5.0

It helps me track prospect content engagement.

Pros

I really like the analytics it offers that shows engagement of the user. I also like that users can download content if they want. And finally, I love the way content looks on mobile.

Cons

I wish they had a feature like Pocket so people could save content for later. Also, I would love users to be able to listen to content rather than just read it.

### "Secure file sharing"

August 10, 2018

4.0

I like that you can personalise each folder and make it public or private

Pros

You can save and share your documents safely. You can even set an expiration date and the document cannot be viewed anymore

Cons

Link creation can get tedious and has a lot of steps

Thanks for the review! Out of curiosity: have you tried our Gmail or Outlook integrations? They'll save you a ton of time by integrating directly into your inbox so that you can quickly create links on-the-fly without even having to go to docsend.com.

### "A great app for startup fundraising"

December 3, 2019

4.0

DocSend was an integral part of our fundraising process, and it will continue to be for future rounds to come.

Pros

DocSend makes it very easy to share and manage access to sensitive information. When we fundraise, we use DocSend so that we can easily share presentations that would be impossible to control access to via standard email. Using Docsend means that we can control access to, and track data on everything we send out. We can see who views our deck, who shares/fwds it, and track our success metrics. Even better, when we make a critical change, we can revoke access to the original document and issue a new version.

Cons

I don't have any real complaints about this application, but one thing that would be useful is an easier way to redirect an old document link to a new document - without having to send a new link. I anticipate that this will happen so it should be fine.

### "Secure Document sharing platform "

May 6, 2022

4.0

Pros

Document sharing whereby one needs to create a link whether you working directly on Outlook or gmail. The feature allows one to spend less time in sending documents as compared with attachments, printing hard copies for signing etc

Cons

None that I have seen so far. All features are relevant

### "Founders should use DocSend for sharing pitch decks and data rooms"

July 27, 2021

4.0

Pros

DocSend is great for secure document sharing and tracking. Founders should absolutely use it for sharing pitch decks and confidential data room materials because it is secure and provides helpful insights and analytics about who viewed your deck. I recommend that you require viewers to submit their email addresses before being able to review your materials so you can reach out to them to connect directly.

Cons

I wish there was a free tier for founders who are just starting their companies and are trying to limit their expenses.

### "Document Tracking"

February 6, 2018

5.0

We are sending our documents externally, and sometimes they share it with others. We would like to prevent the spread of these files to different people. We can track who opened it and they should ask permission if they are not allowed.

Pros

It's free and easy to use. Our firm uses this platform in tracking the documents we send out externally, so we can prevent unauthorized access. We can also set an expiration date so it can only be available during the time being.

### "Great tool for sending documents and getting quantitative feedback"

November 8, 2019

5.0

Valuable tool for fundraising and sales documents

Pros

Awareness of when your audience engages with time sensitive documents (eg fundraising pitchdecks)

Cons

Generally good value - our usage ebbs and flows so wish we could price by usage if minimal activity that month

### "A great tool to easily send what would be attachments as presenations"

April 24, 2018

5.0

Pros

I like how you can take a multitude of documents, links, and graphics and put it into one cohesive space to email and easily present. I also like that the dev team is always implementing new features from customer feedback.

Cons

I don't like how people on our team can see across the whole team at other users' accounts. This makes it sort of clunky.

### "Doc send "

August 3, 2023

I'd recommend doc send, a great tool to keep ontop of the invoices your sending

Pros

I really like doc send, it allows us to send invoices to our customers quickly and securely without any hassel.

Cons

There isn't anything that I can say is missing. We only use it to send invoices and its great for that function

### "DocSend has an easy interface, and is a very user friendly tool. However, it lacks functionality."

January 10, 2018

4.0

I cannot say we had any unfortunately. This is due to limitations of the product.

Pros

User friendliness and absolutely great customer service. Overall a transparent and simple tool with a lot of helpful options.

Cons

The value of the service is far low from the exorbitant amount of money required for the subscription. In addition, the limitations seriously impede any serious transfers to be done. For instance, word files must not contain more than 100 pages. This is a big limitation for an organisation such as ours where we specifically work with large files and we want to send them encrypted. Also there is no voice or video conferencing options with the secure presentation. In a period when dozens of free encrypted file transfer services offer similar options sometimes for free, DocSend needs to really up their game and look at the market they compete with, work on the limitations of the tool, and think about the prices especially for users that end up paying 30 dollars a month for one file transfer.

### "A Good Alternative to Box, But Could Use Some Added Features"

August 8, 2019

4.0

In the end, we choose to go back to another service because of the link issues (mentioned above). Outside of this, we would have but up with the link limits to use the added features and benefits of the service.

Pros

The ability to track who opened your document, the ability to create "Spaces" which creates a one-page website type of area where multiple documents can be uploaded. The pricing is on point for Box and DropBox business accounts.

Cons

I wish you could rename the URLS or create some type of URL tag to know what the file name is. The URL uses a random string of numbers. When sharing links, you could easily share the wrong URL. Was also not a fan of the limit of link visits.

### "Great Tool for Sending Proprietary Documents"

August 29, 2019

4.0

Pros

DocSend makes it easy to send proprietary documents to investors, customers, and potential partners. It accepts a variety of formats, but we especially use it to share PDFs that others can view for a limited time without saving to their own computers. It gives us more control over changing versions of documents, and removing allowed viewers after a certain amount of time.

Cons

DocSend's pricing is a bit steep, and doesn't yet support non-document formats like spreadsheets.

My experience with this software was quite decent. It helped me to keep my documents secure and made them easy to share with the people I work with.

Pros

When I share any document to my colleagues/clients via this tool, they can see it without downloading it. I like this feature. Its mobile application makes documents sharing very convenient for its users.

Great insights into creating decks that people went through to completion.

Pros

It is extremely easy to use, and the insights I gain from the stats on visitor completion have made me a much better visual communicator. I no longer think of my pitches as "complete," but rather an ever-evolving process. The way it is truly cross-platform (mobile, tablets, desktop) is impressive.

The test account is automatically created on the highest tariff and so the customer should be forced to book it. This lacks transparency and also a bit of fairness.

February 14, 2020

Pros

We like the integration with gmail. It allows us to share large files easily, while keeping track of who opens it.

Cons

We feel the e-signature feature needs lots of improvement. We would love to see form completion and signature so we could have share our business agreements/contracts using this platform. Also it will be great to share videos privately and keep track of who watches de video.
