Had the exact same experience with our first fundraise! The platform our advisor recommended was built for huge corporations, not startups. Second time around, we found an easy guide that helped us pick something much more suited to our needs. The key was finding a system designed specifically for smaller companies - simpler interface, more intuitive organization, and straightforward user management. Made a massive difference in our prep time. Our team could actually use it without constant IT support, and investors commented on how accessible everything was. Might be worth considering a switch even mid-process if you're spending more time fighting with the software than preparing for investor meetings
