What differentiates FirmRoom from other similar products?

I really like the flexibility of options and configuration that is afforded by the DealRoom platform. Document-specific permissions can be set, and documented comments back-and-forth are supported. I also appreciated the ability to express relationships between documents (e.g., parent-child and/or parallel relationships).

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

I have been exceptionally happy with the clean design, ease-of-use, and focus of the DealRoom product.

What do you dislike most about this product?

I couldn't easily figure how to display the Assignee(s) tied to any particular request or document.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

We used this platform to increase the efficiency of (quickly) reviewing a large number of documents by a large, multi-functional team in a way that would not have been as organized using more traditional shared drive technologies. It helped us a lot to align internally on the use cases and processes around using the platform.
