Virtual data rooms are often utilized for due diligence in M&A transactions. It can speed up and improve efficiency by allowing the exchange of confidential documents between parties without the need for an actual meeting.

During this stage of the process, the team responsible of the deal will make use of Q&A modules to ask questions to the other party to facilitate discussion and help keep the process moving forward. Furthermore a granular system of permissions allows the administrator to see who has viewed which document and when. This way they can be certain that the information they are privy to is not misused.

Another helpful tool is an option for managing tasks that will allow the admin to assign reading, uploading or other tasks, and receive notifications when tasks are completed. This helps to keep on top of deadlines and progress.

Some data rooms also offer security options, including two-factor authentication and automatic watermarks, the ability to revoke the access to documents even after they have been downloaded (remote shred) with a variety of encryption levels for documents, and the ability to create an NDA in a single click. A bulk user invitation feature as well as the capability to integrate pre-configured solutions that are adapted to the most common M&A deal types can also assist in maximizing efficiency and reducing the time needed to prepare for an M&A.
