I've been a huge fan of @docsend since the initial beta (disclaimer, @CowboyVC is an investor). Having led sales team in the past, I know how valuable it can be to have insights into who is engaging with your docs and when. And as an entrepreneur, I know how valuable it can be to know which investors have read my materials and how interested they are. And now as an investor, I use DocSend to share materials with our entrepreneurs and LPs so we can learn what is most useful and engaging to the Cowboy family. In short, why would you ever send a document as an attachment? It's like running an email campaign without tracking opens and click-throughs.

original discussion was here: http://www.producthunt.co/posts/... product is awesome. I tell every company fundraising to use it.

I've used docsend extensively over the past 6+ months for both fundraising and sales and highly recommend it. A simple concept, but such a powerful tool for tracking engagement across an account (or fund), version control, and insights into what resonates and what doesn't. It's completely changed the way we share docs as a company — the old school way of attaching a PDF is so limited and antiquated by comparison.

LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS.

@nicholasedwards, thanks for the shout out! @ffumarola, that's a good suggestion. We've considered additional security features like watermarking, but thankfully we've found that even the level of security we have now is enough to deter someone from copying the content. Please keep the feedback coming if you think of anything else!

Thanks @davemorin and @Noah_L! BTW, our investors have all been awesome to work with: @CowboyVC, @softtechvc, and @lererventures.

We finally launched at TechCrunch Disrupt in NYC a couple weeks ago: http://techcrunch.com/2014/05/06.... The above link will get you right into the product so you can skip the beta line. You can also enter the promo code 'producthunt' to get a free account.

I've been using DocSend for several months now and I love it! @rheddleston is there an embed-on-page feature in your roadmap? (like slideshare). It would be great if I can embed DocSend presentations in my blog posts.

This is really cool, I signed up and plan to use it. One thing is that when you block downloads the user can simply just right click and save the image. Obviously you can never truly entirely block downloads... but maybe making an extra hurdle where the end user can't download the image directly is a good idea.

We just started using this for our company and really like the idea. We are only 5 days old but I love how they have an affordable pricing structure that does not push people away from trying it.
