What your counterparties actually use

A real data room. On infrastructure you already run.

Bidders, lenders and counsel see a clean, permissioned SharePoint workspace. Behind it, nothing has left your tenant – files, permissions and the audit trail all stay where your security team can see them.

Own it, don’t rent it

The VDR tax was never about technology.

Legacy data rooms charge by the page, the user and the gigabyte because their business depends on holding your files. When a deal heats up the meter spins faster – and when it closes, you pay again to get your own documents back. Govern 365 removes the toll booth: the room is built where your data already lives.

Security stays in your hands

Every action, in your own audit log.

  • Immutable record. Every view, download, permission change and Q&A is written to your tenant – not a dashboard you lose at close.
  • Labels that travel. Purview sensitivity labels and encryption stay attached even if a file leaves the room.
  • Defensible at close. Reconstruct exactly who saw what, and when, for regulators, the board, or a future dispute.
Govern 365 access and rights management - granular permissions and audit inside Microsoft 365
Built for the work, not the demo

What a deal team gets on day one.

Access control management

Permissions inherit from the Entra ID groups you already manage. Give a buyer view-only access to one folder, watermark downloads, and pull access the moment an LOI lapses.

Q&A management

Route diligence questions to the right owner, track status, and keep the full thread attached to the document it concerns – answered once, preserved for next time.

Audit and records management

Every view, download and permission change is written to your tenant’s audit log – defensible for counsel, regulators and the board, with nothing lost at close.

Protection and rights management

Microsoft Purview sensitivity labels and encryption stay attached to the document – a “Highly Confidential” file opens for the named deal team and no one else.

Lifecycle management

Provision a fully structured room from an approved template in minutes, then retire or archive it on a set date so stale rooms never quietly accumulate access.

External collaboration

Outside parties join through secure B2B guest access – no extra Microsoft 365 licence – while every action stays inside the boundary you control.

Where teams put it to work

High-stakes, document-heavy, deadline-driven.

Straight answers

What buyers ask before a demo.

Does my data stay inside Microsoft 365?

Yes. All your files, permissions, and audit logs remain inside your Microsoft 365 tenant. No data is hosted on third-party VDR platforms, ensuring full control and compliance.

How does Govern 365 pricing compare to traditional VDRs?

Govern 365 uses a predictable flat-fee model per room, not per page or per user. There are no archive fees or licensing costs beyond your Microsoft 365 subscription, which can save 60–85% compared to legacy VDR providers.

Why choose Govern 365 instead of a traditional VDR?

Traditional VDRs require separate infrastructure, duplicate governance, and external storage. Govern 365 operates directly within Microsoft 365, leveraging existing permissions, audit logs, and security controls for faster deployment and lower risk.

Can external parties participate without Microsoft 365 licenses?

Yes. External users can securely access rooms via guest access without needing full Microsoft 365 licenses, while your data remains fully protected and under your control.

Is Govern 365 suitable for regulated industries?

Absolutely. Govern 365 maintains immutable audit trails, full governance oversight, and granular permissions. It is designed for high-stakes deals in highly regulated industries like finance, healthcare, and legal sectors.

How quickly can we launch a secure deal room?

Rooms can be launched in minutes, not weeks. Automated provisioning eliminates complex setup, enabling your team to start collaborating immediately with complete control.

Conditions apply. Pricing reflects the published starting rate; confirm current terms during your demo.
