CB Insights vs. DealRoom

Transparency - we were reading a lot of hype about Bitcoin, and it was in every market sector. Those of us who remember 2001, were alarmed. But digging through to find the truth was a challenge. CB Insights provided regular, extensive data every week, more often at the peak. We are certain our own analysis was correct based on that and stopped worrying that we might have missed a market opportunity.

DealRoom has a much better interface and a much faster download features. While most VDRs have the same features, the little improvements in UX and navigation go a long way to ensure that the users are happy and their time is saved. I didn't really select DealRoom. It was the Firm's decision
