Venture capital CRM

DealCloud is custom-fit for the complex relationships and transaction structures of venture capital firms. We offer VCs an enterprise-grade, cutting edge, and single-source solution that outpaces traditional CRM platforms. Although generic systems are built to meet the needs of sales and retail organizations, DealCloud was thoughtfully built to support a many-to-many relationship object model.

 

When we say fully configurable, we mean it: It’s easy to access and configure any field or data set, regardless of fund size or investment preferences. During the implementation process, we equip clients with custom network coverage reports and dashboards, so the entire firms feels the technology’s impact from Day One. With DealCloud’s configuration, clients are able to track what they need and eliminate what they don’t. All functionalities are also available on DealCloud’s mobile app, making it easy for professionals to keep their fingers on the pulse of the fast-moving VC landscape.

 

DealCloud often gets compared to a CRM, but in reality, the software is equipped to do much more than that. Our venture capital software allows venture capital firms to keep track of every relationship by allowing dealmakers to categorize, tag, organize, and report on their relationship data (companies, contacts, deals, etc.) in any way that they choose. Put simply, the technology adapts to the unique ways each venture capital firm works. From tracking your executive network pipeline to looking up funding history data to monitoring board seats and liquidity preferences, DealCloud has been refined to help the most competitive venture firms execute on deals more effectively and build more meaningful relationships.

From strategy to execution

Today’s venture capital professionals require access to complex reports and custom dashboards on demand. Generic CRM platforms simply can’t address the need for real-time data for every stage of the investment lifecycle because they were built for a different business model — one that doesn’t take into account venture capital professionals’ complex relationship, deal, and funding structures.

In a hypercompetitive funding landscape, VCs need to maintain visibility on developments in their industries and track emerging trends. That’s why they leverage DealCloud to more effectively deploy capital in the following areas:

 

  • Deal and pipeline management
  • Executive network management
  • Lender coverage
  • Business development and activity tracking
  • Industry analysis
  • Round-by-round funding analytics
  • Deal and workflow management
  • Deal and legal document management
