Is WeTransfer safe for sharing confidential sales documents?

WeTransfer Pro costs $12-13 per user per month, meaning a 5-person sales team pays $60-65 monthly. ShareDoc Pro costs $29/month total for unlimited team members, saving over $360 annually while providing sales-specific features like engagement tracking and lead capture.

Can ShareDoc track who opens my sales proposals?
