Among the many unique benefits offered by a ShareVault commercial real estate solution are:


Present your due diligence materials in a well-organized, professional structure
Put your properties in the best possible light by placing your documents in a structured hierarchy that streamlines the due diligence process. Only ShareVault allows you to structure your documents using tags, rather than folders. Often, the same document needs to be placed in multiple locations in the due diligence index. With ShareVault, just apply multiple tags to the document. No other data room provider offers this simple, yet powerful, capability:

  • No need to replicate files in multiple locations
  • No paying for additional pages in replicated documents
  • No need to combine document access statistics for multiple instances of the same file

Secure your valuable information without slowing down document access
ShareVault automatically converts your documents to an encrypted PDF format that provides the industry standard document viewing experience, including continuous scrolling and high-speed rendering. Some competing VDRs, because there based on the dated TIFF document standard, will slow down document review due to sluggish page rendering, lack of continuous scrolling and inability to view more than one page at a time. The PDF document encryption used by ShareVault allows you to revoke access to any document at any time, even if the document has been downloaded. Sharevault also provides you with the ability to apply additional security attributes, including inhibiting document download, preventing printing, applying secure dynamic watermarks, identifying the user, and blocking screenshots.

Accelerate the due diligence phase
ShareVault supports PDF streaming, so that documents open to the first page instantly, even if there are many thousands of pages. Most competing virtual data rooms suggest that you break up large documents into smaller volumes so that they’ll load more quickly, but with ShareVault you can keep document review moving quickly without getting bogged down with large documents.

Respond efficiently and securely to questions from third parties
The easy-to-use ShareVault Q&A facility further streamlines the due diligence process by optimizing the response to questions from your users. Questions can be asked privately from right within the data room, so that you and your team can easily respond from the centralized Q&A module. With the optional Q&A workflow feature, questions can be routed to the appropriate expert, and then back to the Q&A moderator for approval before posting the final response. You can also change the privacy level on each question so that other users can refer to questions that you have already answered.

Prepare quickly for due diligence
As you prepare for due diligence, the last thing you need is a complex and lengthy process for preparing your data room. ShareVault customers are consistently impressed by the intuitive simplicity of inviting users, creating the due diligence structure, uploading documents and setting permissions / policies.
