Donnelley Financial Solutions (DFIN) · Legacy RRD clients now served by DFIN

RR Donnelley Venue (legacy, now DFIN Venue) review

RR Donnelley Venue was the data room product of RR Donnelley before its financial services arm was spun off as DFIN in 2016. The product continues today as DFIN Venue, rebuilt in 2025 with modern architecture.

What it does well

  • +Long operating history dating back through RR Donnelley's financial printing and communications business.
  • +Continuity of client relationships carried through the DFIN spin off rather than a disruptive brand change.
  • +Now benefits from DFIN's 2025 rebuild bringing updated navigation and intelligent permissioning.

Where it falls short

  • The RR Donnelley Venue name is no longer marketed separately, which can confuse buyers researching the legacy brand.
  • As with its successor, pricing is not published and requires a direct sales quote.

Pricing

There is no separate RR Donnelley Venue pricing today. The product is quoted and sold as DFIN Venue, with cost based on deal size, duration and data volume.

Security and compliance

Security controls carried through from RR Donnelley to DFIN include ISO 27001 and SOC 2 aligned practices, as described on DFIN's current product and compliance pages.
