iDeals VDR review
we typically use iDeals software to run and manage virtual data rooms for ongoing transactions. We benchmarked the product against their key competitors and found iDeals to offer comparable product features at competitive pricing
CONSNo issues noted to date. Everything from initial set-up to operation has been flawless
Reasons for switching to iDeals Virtual Data Room
primarily due to value for money and functionality. Although, previous VDR software provider package became expensive on a per page basis when we exceeded our initial signed-up storage capacity

Not so "Ideal"s
Data room seems good once you're in. But if you actually want users to be able to get in easily, you'd be best looking elsewhere. Spam blocking has made this almost impossible for users to receive invitations. Then they are instructed to "and @ideals and Ip address" to whitelist ... so then you need to get your corporate IT department involved and ask everyone you invite to do the same; so in this case, not really "ideal"s.
PROSlike the features once in
CONScan't get users into the room easily. 100% of the users I've invited have spent lots of time trying to figure out how to get in, even AFTER searching spam to find the link.

The best virtual data room in the market
It is so easy to move, rename, download and upload files within the data room. Also, the customer service is fast when you need their help and they are pretty knowledge of the platform.
PROSThe platform is user-oriented and the ability that reads all documents so the search feature is extremely useful, faster and efficient.
CONSOur file names require a large amount of characters so when our file names are too large, iDeals does not read them.
Reason for choosing iDeals Virtual Data Room
mainly because most users dont want to deal with a complex system but a system that is easy to navigate.
Reasons for switching to iDeals Virtual Data Room
It was too expensive and the platform was not too user friendly

Great Product and Services
When we select a software application, we are not buy only the service, but we are creating a relationship, a partnership with sales, support and other supplier departments. In this case all the players were great: the application was intuitive and easy to be used, but we were satisfied especcially for the higher level of services as sales, support and post sales.
CONSIt's very difficult find a lack in every side of Ideals.
Reason for choosing iDeals Virtual Data Room
The approach of Ideals in pre sales [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] was very positive and fast on the delivery of the proposal. The cost was competitive and all the companies that have worked before us were a primary companies in the business world.

Data room function is easy - some glitches
iDeals gets the job done - they are much less inexpensive than other VDR providers. Relatively easy to use but can be slow, customer services isn't so easy. Really need to enable iOS remote administration of the site.
PROSEasy to set up, easy integration into file manager. I really like the "updated version" function which allows a new version of a document to easily replace a dated version
CONSSince the very first day - no matter where in the world I am - the automatic time zone finder function is wrong. Every single instance I open the site I am forced to re-set my timezone. Customer service was zero. no idea how to fix this simple problem. Service - conducting a live chat is next to impossible (or at least it was) I don't want to get on the phone. REMOTE ADMINISTRATION! SO many times i've been out to dinner or on a train with no laptop and would be great to manage files and run administrative tasks from mobile. right now can only be a 'viewer" from mobile. Slow. Download speeds can be glacial.
Reason for choosing iDeals Virtual Data Room
A more professional image - iDeals is purely a VDR geared toward transactions vs. other virtual file systems which don't have same control features.

Overall, great product
Very, very, positive! Although, you are a bit strict on your data limitations.
PROSI like all the posibilities, all the security, the customizations, and the tracking that you allow.
CONSLoading time when you open a document. Supported document files are a bit limited. Sometimes the invitation emails end up in peoples spam filters.

Ideals Solution - Review
I have using data room more than 2 years and so far I have not faced difficulty. Also I would really like to appreciate the co-ordinator from Ideals Solution- [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN], he has been really proactive and helpful and has always given as the best comparitive quotation. Also there were times when I had given him very short timeline to arrange for data room access and he has never disappointed us on that. On software I would like to say that it is user friendly you dont really need a training before using the software
CONSOne drawback I would want to say that many a times user is not notified if any document is upload on the data room
Vendor Response
Dear Twinkle, Thanks a lot for your feedback! The notifications for documents uploading can be configured in "My notifications" menu in the VDR settings. Please contact our support team in case you will need any assistance with this. Kind regards, Alexandra O'Brien Customer Success Manager iDeals Solutions Group

VDR which can be deployed really fast and is easy to use
Perfect tool for VDR setup.
PROSI especially liked that I was really easy to use, everything works very intuitively, so basically no previous experience is needed to start a project. It comes with all features that are needed and a supreme customer service.
CONSI had some problems with numbering of the folders I tried to do the bulk upload of the VDR folder structure. I managed to resolve issues and was even offered help from provider to do it instead of me. Really great customer service.

Great VDR tool
We are using iDeals VDR for bank reporting as well as for data request lists for potential investors. The tool is easy to use and easy to monitor the progress of uploaded documents as well as the access to the documents.
PROSThe projects in iDeals VDR are easy to set-up as well as uploading the documents is no-brainier.
CONSSetting up the users and collaboration is a bit tricky if adding new folders -> make sure to review document permissions settings when adding new folders
Reason for choosing iDeals Virtual Data Room
We found the iDeals VDR as the best at price to performance ratio
