The verdict
Here is our honest position. GateDocs is new, and we only publish competitor claims we have checked. We have not checked Orangedox yet. What we do know is our own product: gate any file behind a lead form or password, cap downloads, set an expiry date, and see every view and download as it happens. If that loop — gate, capture, follow up — is what you need, the free plan lets you judge GateDocs on your own files.
Frequently asked questions
What makes GateDocs different from Orangedox?
We have not published a checked comparison with Orangedox, so we will not make claims about its features. GateDocs is built around one job: turning shared files into named leads. Forms collect name, company, and job title. Analytics show views and downloads as they happen. Plans start free.
Can I switch from Orangedox to GateDocs?
Yes. Upload your files to GateDocs, pick a gate for each one — a form, a password, or none — and share the fresh links. No reader accounts are needed. Lead capture is on every plan, including Free, which covers 3 gated links and 50 leads a month. Move up to Pro at $29 per month if you want to remove those caps and the GateDocs branding.
