You can send documents directly from your inbox with the DocSend email plugins for Gmail or Outlook. Orangedox has two workspaces Google apps for tracking marketing documents and virtual data room and one plugin for email tracking.

Docsend provides watermarking and signing an NDA before viewing the virtual data room. Additionally, they may offer several different ways to upload your documents including Dropbox, OneDrive, SharePoint Online etc.
