iDeals pricing
iDeals VDR software offers a 30-day, no-obligation free trial to all new users. The trial period is a good opportunity to test the platform’s layout and tools in action, train the employees, and set up the virtual space for future deal processing.
iDeals pricing follows a pre-set monthly subscription model. The plans vary in user and storage capacities, as well as functionality. Selecting the right pricing solution depends on the project’s size and specifics.
The three iDeals cost plans feature:
| Pricing plan | Best for the following use cases |
|---|---|
| Pro plan | For small and medium projects. This arrangement includes the capacity for one project, with up to five administrative users and unlimited guests. Pro users are able to store up to 10 GB of data and benefit from features such as 24/7/365 support, dynamic watermarking, two-factor authentication, and more. |
| Business plan | For large projects and serial dealmakers. Business subscribers can manage an unlimited number of projects with unlimited administrative and guest users. With up to 250 GB of storage and the same features as the Pro plan, Business users will also get access to advanced Q&A management, file labeling, and IP-based restrictions. |
| Enterprise | Can be tailored to facilitate multiple objectives. Enterprise users are also able to manage an unlimited number of projects with unlimited administrative and guest users. Additionally, they will not be restricted to any preparation limits and will manage up to 1 TB of data. On top of the Business features, Enterprise subscribers will also benefit from advanced security tools such as single sign-on and customer-managed encryption. |
Please contact the provider to receive the quotes for the above plans. According to users, the iDeals cost is relatively flexible and depends on the particular project’s requirements and objectives.
