Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use it to exchange confidential documents like SOCII, fundraising pitch decks, and due diligence documents. The platform is easy to use and cheaper than data rooms. We regularly exchange pitch decks with potential investors, and DocSend helps us share them through a link and eventually allows us to have real-time analytics on who accessed documents and when.

Pros

  • Real-time analytics.
  • Update files on the same link.
  • Easy link-based access.

Cons

  • Please add video-sharing feature.
  • Please add advanced-level analytics.

Likelihood to Recommend

Mostly suited for sensitive and confidential documents during pitch decks and due diligence.

Effortless Document Sharing

Rating: 10 out of 10

DocSend allows you to upload documents and share them with a trackable link. We use DocSend for fundraising and share our pitch decks with prospective investors.

At any given point of time you can choose to disable or enable access to your documents.

Pros

  • Document management with access control
  • Unique shareable links

Likelihood to Recommend

DocSend is the best software for startup founders raising a round. The ability to gauge investor interest plays a big role during your fundraise and DocSend provides a data driven solution for tracking campaign engagement. You can also use this engagement to see which slides perform better and which don't.

Diversity is key

Rating: 7 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Docsend is similar to other software but it is more reliable in terms of security. Wetransfer or any other third parties sometimes you hear about their data breaches Dropbox prices are high compared to the competition. This is why we rely on Google Drive in our company 70% of our staff is remote so file transfer is mandatory.

Pros

  • File Transfer.
  • Security.
  • Ease of use.

Cons

  • Prices.
  • More privacy.
  • Anonymous.

Likelihood to Recommend

We can't use this for very sensitive information and private documents. Saving files directly to Dropbox is something I like. We can't share private keys or sensible banking information thru the files Dropbox is secure from hacks and other stuff like this. Dropbox, a pioneer among cloud storage and syncing services, offers synced desktop folders for anywhere-access, this is why DocSend is good.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I have the application for sending used files of different classes, images alluding to events that we have carried out, administration files, management, coordination and planning of events in which I have been a part. This tool has made it possible to send and manage files in a simple, effective way, as well as being able to track their delivery.

We have used it at different levels and with different teams to achieve synergy between them, starting from a channel for sending important files, documents and materials to all the teams involved.

Pros

  • Additional information from users who have already downloaded the files or material.
  • Additional information if the download link(s) have been resent.
  • Password encryption if necessary.
  • Email verification for third-party download via email.
  • Add-ons with other platforms and applications, such as Outlook and Gmail.
  • Seal of documents by electronic signature

Cons

  • Increase storage capacity for sending files.
  • Due to firewalls of some corporations, sometimes it is not possible to see the files for some users.
  • Portability

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

At the time it was really convenient to have an e signature tool from our central document management. Allowed us to send docs for signature from where files were held.

Pros

  • Tracking the document.
  • Executing the signature.
  • Keeps things organized.

Cons

  • Further integrations with other tools so that it can all be centrally managed.

Likelihood to Recommend

It is great if you are housing all documents in Dropbox and require an electronic signature solution. It will help you track, organize and get everything completed. The downside is if Dropbox does not do enough in terms of contract management and you require a different tool to manage custom terms or other things.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I have used DocSend from Dropbox for many years to send documents to clients and find it to be a very easy system to use. I was first introduced to this system when filling out paperwork for a home refi as a customer and then started using it myself. It is very easy to share documents, especially ones that need an electronic signature.

Pros

  • easily share documents and pdf files
  • ability to sign documents with electronic signature
  • ability to share photos

Cons

  • Make signatures editable so more realistic
  • ability to save older docs

Cloud Based Post Office

Rating: 9 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

This is great software to store, share, and keep a record of important documents on the cloud. The feature to allow for certain individuals to have permissions and access files is a great addition. Also, it keeps communication between users and certain files easy and keeps any minor hiccups at bay. Altogether DocSend has been a great help for myself and daily tasks.

Pros

  • Sending important documents

Cons

  • UI looks

Likelihood to Recommend

It is perfect for a company that needs to send important documents constantly. Allows for a group of people to keep up with files and edit them all together while keeping them secure.

DocSend would not be suitable for a company that still uses paper records or has a smaller team compared to other businesses.
