At Datasite, security is our top priority. We adopt the latest cloud security best practices. The Datasite platform:

• Stores and maintains user information, application data, and logs separately
• Treats passwords with cryptographic hash algorithms
• Encrypts at-rest files with AES 256-bit encryption and regularly creates backups

• Captures, analyzes, and actions events in real time
• Accesses files only upon request, supported by document access review and change management processes

All original (PDF) and new (Excel) files are stored in your My Documents area. No other users can access them, and you can permanently delete them anytime.

Scanned PDFs can also be converted, provided the scan quality is good enough for the tool to read (please double-check).

The tool extracts only information that's in a table format. Each table is represented in a different section of the Excel file, referencing the page from which it was extracted.

They're both Excel formats, but XLSX is the most recent version supported by Microsoft, so we use the latest for our outputs.

The whole process is online, so you don’t need software.

You’ll need to remove password protection before converting a PDF – and remember to re-protect both the original and the Excel file if necessary.

The Datasite mobile app provides a high-quality photo scan function, automatically converting the picture into PDF format and putting a copy in your My Documents area. Locate the new file in My Documents from the online web app, then choose 'Open In' - 'PDF to Excel' to start the conversion process.

You can! This table conversion tool is free to everyone. If you don’t have a Datasite project, sign up for your free account.

You can convert any file up to 50MB.
