What do you like best about DocSend?

It works very well, it's easy to learn and it does exactly what it's meant to do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DocSend?

I use the password feature a lot. There's an easy way to do massive uploads, but then you have to go one by one adding the password. It would be incredibly useful if you could input a CSV or excel file with all of the individual passwords, and also do massive link extractions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering DocSend:

None Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is DocSend solving and how is that benefiting you?

I know in my presentations which slides are catching peoples attention, and which ones aren´t performing as well. If I screw up when uploading a file, I can fix it before people even notice, as opposed to emailing them the file directly, which would make it impossible to retrieve said file once it had been sent. If you screw up also, damage is easily quantifiable. It also allows to see who is really interested in your product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about DocSend?

DocSend makes it very easy to organize and find content, if you search by using the folder structure, not the search bar. Sending content via links straight from your email, or creating a Space for a prospect is easy enough, once you train and reinforce adoption. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DocSend?

Within DocSend, things can only exist in one place. If the user does not know where they are, the search functionality can spit out a lot of results, making it hard to know what's the most recent version. Because users can upload their own versions of things to their personal content folders, this creates many duplicates and can make tracking difficult for Marketing on what is actually being used/opened and what marketing materials are impacting sales. Sellers tell me they don't always use a link or create a Space because it's time-consuming, and are still sending things via email attachments, again making the Marketing team very frustrated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering DocSend:

Take a look at at least two other vendors - I recommend starting with HighSpot and Showpad. We chose DocSend for ease-of-use in order to get high adoption, and even with that choice, we struggle with adoption. Show your end users each platform and get their buy-in before making a decision! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is DocSend solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are able to understand which type of content and specific pieces of content are resonating with our Prospects. We are also able to share content easily with Prospects and continue to do so once they become Customers. Additionally, we have one source of truth for the most up-to-date versions of collateral (as long as people remember to look there). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about DocSend?

DocSend is very easy to use, and more importantly, it's easy for the recipient to view documents online. I use it frequently for my large sized presentations in PDF (20 MB) that are too large for emailing as an attachment or too inconvenient to send via Dropbox. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DocSend?

Nothing really. It's a simple but powerful tool. Having an app for iOS would be useful as currently they only seem to allow functionality via their website. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is DocSend solving and how is that benefiting you?

Using DocSend reduces the file size of outbound emails to prospects. Plus I am notified when the client has opened (or not opened) the file, so I can fine-tune my follow up accordingly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about DocSend?

I like being notified when the client reviews the document, what percentage of the document they’ve read, and how long they’ve reviewed each page. It helps you truly understand the important pieces of information that they focus on and therefore you can tailor fit ore conversations and content to those areas. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DocSend?

That I have to retype a name for the document each time I create a shareable link for the same document. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about DocSend?

That I know when people have actually checked my attachment, what pages they’ve seen, how long they spend reviewing the deck, how frequently they come back to the document, and that we get their contact info (email!). It’s been great for sales prospects and also for fundraising. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DocSend?

Nothing as of now. It’s been working great for us as an early stage company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering DocSend:

You won’t regret using Docsend, and will likely never go back to sending documents, reports, presentations and attachments without Docsend ever again. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is DocSend solving and how is that benefiting you?

It makes me work more efficient early by focusing more on those leads that have spent the time going through our documents. Many times we send docsend links to prospects who don’t click on them, so we know not to spend a lot of time on them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about DocSend?

Document tracking is fairly well designed and implemented within DocSend. You can check when your document is opened, from where it is opened and you can also see which person has opened it at any time, this can serve to have a control of which people are reviewing a specific document, it is especially useful within work teams .

Users can also download and save the content, which also gives them the possibility of saving information.

It has a very broad support for many types of documents, which allows you to upload and modify files of different extensions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DocSend?

The website sometimes goes a little slow and stays loading for a while, which sometimes means that you have to wait to upload or revise a new document.

A future suggestion is that if the content could also be read instead of just being heard through voice it would be really useful for people who want to review documents but are busy doing other things and can not read them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering DocSend:

With Docsend you can better control the documents that upload and modify the different users and computers and at the same time allow them to change certain sections of those documents. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is DocSend solving and how is that benefiting you?

It has allowed us to have our documents arranged within the software and at the same time to review what use the computers and users of these documents make. This helps us to keep track of the changes that are made within each document and to better manage the different projects we are carrying out.

The possibility of reviewing these documents through the mobile application also helps us to make small changes and upload and read some documents quickly from outside our workplace, this helps us to be informed from anywhere. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about DocSend?

What do you dislike about DocSend?

Sharing information with prospects in a secure manner and seeing in real-time when and how much of the content is reviewed, was ticked all the boxes. I don't having anything that I dislike about it. Good job! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This platform helps me provide the information my prospects need to make educated decisions. It allows us to provide transparency around certain aspects of our value proposition by sharing sensitive information that you wouldn't provide on your website. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
