Pros

“The platform’s intuitive interface made organizing and sharing hundreds of sensitive documents effortless, while its robust security features gave us confidence that everything was protected.”

Adiran M.

Analyst

“We even have clients request to utilize our data room when they have their own because Firmex is so easy to use.”

Christina H.

System Administrator

“I also wished you could completely delete buyers when a deal falls through and you add a new buyer.”

Amy W.

Senior Vice President

Pros

“it's a super easy cloud based SFTP server, built on buckets that are also accessible programatically, and webhook integration to aid in automation.”

Eric K.

Vice President, Engineering

“My favorite feature with SFTP To Go was it's accessibility across multiple platforms. Whether it was accessing the server on a new/temporary computer or integrating with a trusted desktop client (which is my preference).”

Colin W.

Tax Preparer, Owner

“I love the webhooks feature, and the ability to provision access credentials for specific subdirectories.”

David K.

Director of Technology

Cons

“For example, re document management, if I click on a folder, it does not show me the subfolder that are in it in the center view of the screen so I would think it is empty.”

Jad S.

PE senior analyst

“The least appealing aspect of Firmex Virtual Data Room was the occasional lag when navigating large folders or bulk uploading documents.”

Paul G.

CFO

“This leads me to think that the folder is empty which is not the case.”

Jad S.

PE senior analyst

Cons

“We utilize the SFTP for pharmaceutical claims, and I grab the new document each week, but there is not way to sort newest document to oldest or anything like that, which makes finding each document a little trickier.”

Isaac C.

Enterprise Business Analyst

“You can't send a web portal link to schools to transfer their data unless you pay for the higher tier.”

Ashlynn C.

Director of Software and Production

“For smaller teams with limited storage and transfer needs, the pricing can be manageable, but it becomes more difficult to justify as storage, users, or data transfer requirements increase.”

Lindsay H.
