Plans aren't like for like. Peony's $30 Business entry includes an NDA gate but not per-folder permissions or dynamic watermarks, which start on its $52 Data Room plan, while some entries here include them. Where a vendor shows one price, it appears on both billing bases. Fordata's annual figure is computed from its 20% yearly discount. Euro prices are converted at 1.1267 USD per EUR (ECB reference rate, November 4, 2026). Tax is excluded. Your price may differ with users, storage and term.

## Which data rooms don't publish prices?

10 vendors sell by quote, including the largest enterprise platforms. Where a third party reports a figure, it's shown with its source and date. Treat those as rough guides, not list prices.

Box publishes rates, from $15 per user per month billed annually with a 3-user minimum, but has no dedicated data room plan, so it isn't in the median.

## How is this index built?

Each vendor's entry is its cheapest paid plan that works as a data room: multi-folder rooms, per-visitor or per-folder permissions, and an NDA or access gate. A price counts as published if anyone can see it without a form or a sales call. We left out vendors whose pages don't show a working room, such as SmartVDR, which lists prices from $149 a month but states no NDA gate.

The median covers 14 vendors: Peony, SecureDocs, Digify, FirmRoom, CapLinked, Onehub, DocSend, ShareFile, Virtual Vaults, Ansarada, Papermark, Drooms, Fordata, Dillien. It's sensitive to plan choice. If Drooms is measured on its Business plan instead of Professional, the annual-billing median moves from about $249 to about $275.

Our own [data room cost guide](https://www.peony.ink/blog/virtual-data-room-cost-guide) uses a narrower 16-vendor table, so its median of about $275 differs. Use this index for the data, and the guide for how pricing models work.

## Frequently asked questions

### How much does a data room cost per month?

The median published entry price is about $249 a month on annual billing and about $342 a month on the shortest term, across the 14 vendors in this index that publish a working data room price. Entry plans differ a lot in what they include, so compare storage, rooms and users too. Peony starts at $30 per admin per month on Business, with data rooms, an NDA gate and free viewers.

### Which data rooms publish their prices?

14 of the 25 vendors here publish a working data room price: Peony, SecureDocs, Digify, FirmRoom, CapLinked, Onehub, DocSend, ShareFile, Virtual Vaults, Ansarada, Papermark, Drooms, Fordata, Dillien. Box publishes rates but has no dedicated data room plan. The other 10 are quote-only, including Datasite, Intralinks, Ideals and Firmex.

### What is the cheapest data room with published pricing?

Peony Business has the lowest published entry price in this index, at $30 per admin per month billed annually, though it doesn't include per-folder permissions or dynamic watermarks, which start on Peony Data Room at $52. Drooms also has a free Starter tier with 3 data room projects, 150 MB and 2 user licences, which this index doesn't count because it uses paid plans. The next lowest entries carry tight limits: Drooms Professional includes 2 user licences and 500 MB, and Ansarada Essentials includes 50 MB. Check the limits before you compare prices, because the cheapest plan may not fit your deal.

### How much does Datasite cost?

Datasite doesn't publish prices, so any figure is an estimate. Vendr's marketplace page shows a $25,555 median, and its buyer guide shows a $68,121 average contract with a maximum around $190,000. Both are small samples, and the two pages disagree, so ask for a written quote. Peony publishes its prices, from $30 per admin per month.

### Why does this index use the cheapest working plan?

It gives a fair, repeatable floor: the cheapest paid plan with multi-folder rooms, per-visitor or per-folder permissions, and an NDA or access gate. Free tiers are recorded but not used as entry prices. Peony's Free plan isn't counted, because data rooms start on Business.

### How often is this index updated?

We re-check each vendor's published pricing each month and change the date only after that review. The last review was November 5, 2026. If a price here is wrong, tell us at sean@peony.ink and we'll correct it.
