Merrill Corporation
Merrill DatasiteOne is particularly useful with multi-party due diligence for business development purposes. It is not as necessary for sharing nonconfidential data.

Merrill Corporation
  • 24/7 help desk is the top differentiator. Every help desk agent I've interacted with has really known the product end to end.
  • Cross-platform compatible with no plug-ins, software downloads needed.
  • Beautiful UI, looks very professional
  • Reporting at the page level (with timestamps)

Cons
Merrill Corporation
  • Frankly, I can't think of any missing features or things that need to be improved. From the perspective of the user who is reviewing documents, it works quite well.

Usability

Very intuitive system, mostly drag and drop. There are ample opportunities for user and admin training with the Merrill staff as well.

Alternatives Considered
Merrill Corporation
I prefer Firmex. They have a strong search function and a user interface that makes it easy to identify new documents. Merrill is robust and offers the same basic tools, but I find its interface less intuitive.

Return on Investment
Merrill Corporation
  • Merrill DatasiteOne has had a positive impact by allowing us to review large amounts of documents under tight timelines.
  • Really it is just a tool to serve the larger business objective of completing due diligence for our clients.
  • I don't think I've ever had a negative experience when the target has elected to use Merrill DatasiteOne for their datasite.
