"A breath of fresh air."
What do you like best about Global Shares?

That we can manage the cap table without our lawyer charging for every change. Very quick implementation. We were up and running in a weekend. We can attach documents to each transaction, eliminating the hunt for documentation.

In comparison to the leading software products in this category, Global Shares is free for less than 100 stakeholders and does not charge for implementation. They also aren't arrogant. The leading platforms require lawyers to be involved, which makes the solution unaffordable for small companies. J.P. Morgan is doing this for small companies because they want to establish relationships early.

The end result is that for no cost we now have an equity platform with no data errors. As opposed to paying many thousands of dollars per year for a platform that was plain wrong.

What do you dislike about Global Shares?

Global Shares is a young product, and not on par with the features of more expensive and mature products. They are making changes rapidly, and the features they introduce are sometimes buggy or incomplete. I have made some suggestions for new features to Global Shares. The team is very responsive and appreciative of feedback.

What problems is Global Shares solving and how is that benefiting you?

Equity/Cap Table management without having to pay a lawyer for every change. Provides a way for shareholders to log in. Because we are managing it instead of our lawyer, data quality is higher.

"Great platform and excellent onboarding support."
What do you like best about Global Shares?

For a platform that has a lot of power under the hood, it is intuitive to use and navigate. It will help us to dramatically simplify rollout and onboarding for our ESOP and make it easy for the whole team to connect with their shareholding.

What do you dislike about Global Shares?

The legal structures underpinning our ESOP are complex, so to translate this into the platform can be challenging. This is offset by the excellent support we recieved throughout the onboarding process.

What problems is Global Shares solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are an early stage start-up with a relatively young workforce. Many of our team have no experience whatsoever with equity compensation. Global Shares offers us an easy way to communicate with and onboard new team members - as well as meeting their expectations for a modern management platform for their shareholding.

"Incredible Onboarding Experience with Global Shares"
What do you like best about Global Shares?

After a thorough evaluation of numerous options, Global Shares emerged as the unbeatable choice. While we initially had to partner with JPM to access their services, the decision is already proving to be a wise financial move, saving us a substantial amount of money.

What do you dislike about Global Shares?

There's noting to dislike, the support has been amazing

What problems is Global Shares solving and how is that benefiting you?

he intricate task of managing cap tables, especially those entangled with various convertible notes, is where Global Shares truly shines. With a multitude of option holders and a commitment to bootstrap, we found ourselves facing high-cost tiers with other cap table companies.

"A solution truly tailored for startups with unsurpassed onboarding support."
What do you like best about Global Shares?

The leading cap table management tool gets very expensive in the second or third year. But Global Shares from JPM provides an affordable cap table management solution that grows with startups. Their onboarding team offers fantastic service, making the changeover and implementation seamless. However, the tremendous value of the Global Shares is the resources of JPM Venture that startups can draw from as they grow their venture.

What do you dislike about Global Shares?

We have not experienced any issue with the solution so far.

What problems is Global Shares solving and how is that benefiting you?

Affordabiliy during the early stage of any startups, Global Shares understands it.
