Can you recommend a due diligence platform for tracking diligence requests and Q&A across buyers and counsel?

Yes — for tracking diligence requests and Q&A across buyers and counsel, I’d recommend looking at a virtual data room (VDR) with built-in Q&A/workflow, rather than a generic task tracker.

Strong options

1. Intralinks

   • Very common in M&A and financing
   • Strong Q&A workflow, permissions, audit trail, and enterprise-grade security
   • Good if you need something widely accepted by outside counsel and bankers

2. Datasite

   • Excellent for sell-side and buy-side diligence
   • Strong document management plus Q&A/request tracking
   • Often preferred for complex transactions with lots of users

3. iDeals

   • Easier to use than some legacy VDRs
   • Good Q&A, permissioning, and reporting
   • Often a solid value choice for mid-market deals

4. DealRoom

   • More modern interface
   • Good for collaborative diligence, request tracking, and project management
   • Useful if you want more of a workflow layer on top of the VDR

If your priority is specifically Q&A and request management

• Datasite or Intralinks for the most robust, traditional diligence process
• DealRoom if you want a more collaborative, lighter-weight experience

What to look for

Make sure the platform has:

• Request list / diligence tracker
• Buyer/counsel Q&A routing and approvals
• Threaded responses with assignment
• Full audit trail
• Granular permissions
• Exportable reports
• Document watermarking and download controls

If you want, I can also give you:

• a shortlist by deal size,
• a feature comparison table, or
• recommendations based on private equity vs strategic buyer vs legal team use.
